M. Basketball Takes on Ivy League Elite

Tonight's game will most likely also see sophomore guard Andrew Gellert break, or at least tie, the school record for most steals in a season. Gellert, who ranks 16th in the country with an average of 2.8 steals per game, needs just one more takeaway to match the school record of 65.

In addition, senior captain Damian Long will have a chance tonight to extend his streak of consecutive games with a three-pointer to 22. If he does, Long will be just one game shy of tying the mark set earlier this season by junior forward Dan Clemente.

Harvard vs. Pennsylvania

In Harvard's first meeting with Penn earlier this month, the Crimson played solid defense against the Quakers in the first half, holding them to under 40.0 percent shooting from the floor.

Shooting woes of their own, however, plagued the Crimson, who trailed 32-19 after the first twenty minutes.

In the second half, things went from bad to worse, as the Harvard defense collapsed and the poor shooting continued. The Quakers, led by 20 points from senior guard Michael Jordan, went on to dismantle the Crimson, 79-52.

For Harvard, Clemente was especially ineffective on offense, connecting on just 1-of-9 shots and finishing with two points.
