One time a failed Harvard chance actually did go the other way, according to Wheaton, but the referee did not agree.
In the 96th minute of play, well into the first overtime period, a shot by Stauffer struck the underside of the crossbar and hit the ground, but the referee ruled that it did not cross the goal line.
"Do the physics," Wheaton said. "You can't hit the bottom of the post like that and have it not go in.
"We were a little unlucky,"
More like extremely unlucky. Don't worry about it, Jessica Larson. You weren't the lone victim of yesterday's misfortune. The game should have been won long before you ever put your head against the ball. Scoring Har--Foster (Minkus, Stauffer), 42:24. Mas--Iverson (Tokarchik), 70:10. Mas--Own goal, 131:22.
