Lloyd's only contribution to the game was a technical foul that allowed Harvard to jump out to its biggest lead, 53-44.

Harvard also did a fine job defensively on Brown star guard Eric Blackiston. He managed to score 19 points, but was silent for much of the second half.

In the end though, Brown rose to the occasion and assumed the role of Lucy.

The Bear defense turned its play up a notch, holding Harvard scoreless for a five minute stretch late in the game.

On offense Brown did just enough to win. Four consecutive points by Blackiston sandwiched in between two lay-ups by the Bears' Steve Silas ultimately spelled defeat for the Crimson, taking Brown from a 60-58 deficit to the final victory margin of 66-62.

In the end Harvard's hurried shots fell short, and the Crimson ended the game with yet another loss.

Just as Harvard was poised to make its run at victory, to finally connect with the football, it came crashing back to earth.

Yet Harvard may be able to take solace in a different Charlie Brown story.

After years and years of losing, the Peanuts' baseball team finally won a game.

Charlie Brown, the hard-luck kid himself, stepped up to the plate and hit the game winning home run.

After all, the familiar saying on Charlie goes, "You're a good man, Charlie Brown."

It can be said, you're a good team, Harvard basketball. Now we just have to kick the ball.
