Earlier in the game, however, it did not appear the Crimson would need four unanswered goals in the final 10 minutes to secure the win.
Harvard opened the scoring, taking a surprising 2-0 lead just eight minutes into the first half with goals just 1:14 apart from Frisbie and freshman Katie Shaughnessy.
Harvard led until late in the first half when UMass freshman Lydia Robinson chipped a goal in with 1:21 remaining to tie the game 2-2 heading into halftime.
The Crimson would regain the lead just four minutes into the second half on a goal from sophomore midfielder Gretchen Puttkamer.
The Crimson's advantage, however, would be short-lived.
UMass senior Stephanie Pavlick knotted the game, 3-3, with her second tally of the match at the six-minute mark of the second half.
Then just three minutes later, fellow UMass senior Noelle Gorski gave the Minutemen their first lead of the game, 4-3, 8:58 into the half.
With just over 10 minutes left in regulation, the Minutemen appeared to put the game away with a pair of goals less than two minutes apart.
