The Crimson's only highlight came with 13 minutes left in the match when senior forward Armando Petruccelli scored on a penalty kick after sophomore forward John Oslowski was tripped in the goal box.
The Hawks weren't finished, though, as Sambrook finished off Hartwick's scoring with an amazing 30 yard shot just two minutes before the final horn sounded.
After playing a mostly non-Ivy league schedule thus far in its season, the Crimson hopes to regroup and finish strong with good results in conference play.
"That's definitely one of our goals," Kelly said. "I'd like to say the game's score was misleading, but 4-1is 4-1.
But if you were there, you wouldn't have thought that [Hartwick was] three goals better than us."
The Crimson now prepares for a match against Holy Cross tomorrow afternoon at Ohiri Field. It also plays host to Princeton on Saturday.
Harvard hopes that it can rediscover some of its early season success in time for its important upcoming league matches.
