In the second game, the Crimson created a multitude of Warrior errors and took a 25-19 lead. Although the Warriors tried to fight back, two kills by Kowell finished off the game for the Crimson, 30-27.

The third game was closely contested, but eventually the offensive dominance of junior co-captain Justin Denham and senior outside hitter Brian Stevenson thwarted Southampton's attempt to gain the lead.

Both teams were tied at 20-20, but Stevenson had two kills and Denham had three to seal the game, 30-28 and give Harvard a 2-1 lead in the match.

The third game found the Crimson trailing 10-6, but Cardet and Kowell catalyzed a 24-14 Harvard run that closed out the game, 30-24, and the match, 3-1. Cardet had four kills in the game and Kowell had three with three blocks.

Vassar 3, Harvard 1

The Brewers finished a season sweep of the Crimson with a 3-1 win on Saturday afternoon. Vassar had already defeated Harvard 3-1 a month ago in New York.

Harvard found itself trailing 2-0 due to continued serving and hitting errors, and eventually those mistakes did it in.

"We missed tons and tons of serves," Wilson said. "We had hitting errors, passing errors, and we can't play like that against the good teams."
