Harvard Nips New Hampshire, 66-61

Junior Kyle Snowden led the Crimson with a game-high 20 points, while Hill and junior David Demian added 12 each in the win.

Winning is something that the Crimson have been doing a lot of lately, a stark contrast to last years 4-20 squad.

"This is just a totally different atmosphere from last year's team," sophomore center Paul Fisher said. "We are definitely happy with how we have done, but as the season progresses we are gaining momentum and setting higher and higher goals for ourselves."

The team now seems quite committed to the once unrealistic goal of an Ivy League championship and a trip to the NCAA tournament.

So, the Crimson must now turn its focus to the major Ivy League portion of their schedule which begins at Yale and Brown this weekend.

As for preparation, the consensus among the Crimson is that the players seem intent on playing their game.

"We are not that concerned with what they do. If we play our game, then, hopefully, we will come out with two victories," Fisher added. Harvard  66 UNH  61
