Hopps' guesswork paid off handsomely, as he crushed Reedy's outside fastball for his third homer of the year.
"That one felt a lot better coming off the bat than the first [homer]," Hopps said.
Riding a three-game winning streak, the Crimson will travel to Hanover, N.H., to face Dartmouth this weekend. Harvard can clinch the Red Rolfe Division title by taking three out of four from the Big Green.
