Sophomore second baseman Faiz Shakir, who finished the day with three RBI, then plated Carmack with an infield groundout.

Mager drove in the Crimson's second run with an RBI-single that scored Llanes.

"One positive that came out of today was we did a good job of moving runners over in key situations," Mager said.

Harvard overtook the lead in the top of the seventh with a three-run rally that was highlighted by a two-run double by Shakir.

Shakir, who leads the team with a .350 batting average, went a combined 3-for-7 in the day's two games.
