Veloscy held the Crimson hitless for 6 2/3 innings before Crimson catcher Brian Lentz broke up the no-hit attempt with a grounder through the infield. In all, Veloscy pitched eight innings allowing only two hits.
"We've made a lot of these pitchers throughout the year into superstars," Birtwell added.
Losing pitcher Mike Dryden left after surrendering three runs in four innings. The bullpen could not keep the game close, however, as Dartmouth erupted for four runs in the sixth, putting an end to the Crimson's hopes.
Dartmouth 9, Harvard 3
"Everybody just showed up a little flat," Carmack said. "We didn't bring our A-game."
Harvard took a brief 1-0 lead in the top of the first but fell behind quickly, as the Big Green exploded for three runs in both the second and third innings.
Dartmouth catcher Mike Levy led the onslaught with a 3-for-3, four-RBI effort. Designated hitter Mike Mileusnic also was perfect, going 4-for-4 and scoring three runs.
