But it was all Harvard thereafter. Holmes snuck in on a nice feed from Maguire and five-holed Konte to save the day.
Holmes's line--with Gustafson and a hyperactive Steve Martins (eight penalty minutes and lots of offense)--broke down Princeton's defense until Farrell was able to break through.
"It's always tough to play down here," Farrell said. "I'm glad to finally be out of this place."
