Against Brown, Harvard relied on the strengths of junior goalie Gresham Bayne.
Bayne had 12 saves on the game, and made a consistent effort to energize the Crimson defense from the net.
"We can't take any games for granted because you'll get surprised if you come out here relaxed," said Bayne. "We had two really good games today--this morning was a tough game, and so was this afternoon."
Senior captain Tom Elke was enthusiastic with respect to the Crimson's effort.
"I've been here five years and I don't know of anyone on a Harvard water polo team who's beaten Brown before this year," Elke said. "We did it twice and when it mattered."
Harvard also beat Brown at home in September.
