Sophomore center Jared Cantanucci gave the Crimson yet another chance early in the third period to take the lead. Cantanucci had a breakaway at 3:23 and almost poked the puck across the goal line, but Boucher made the save.
Harvard did pick up its play late in the third period, culminating with Steve Moore's goal with 3:54 remaining in the final period. The Crimson couldn't regain the lead after Byrne's slapshot went on net.
