But that was as close as Harvard would come as Maryland closed the game with five straight goals.
Comito notched here third and fourth tallies while fellow senior Meg McNamara scored two straight to put the game out of reach for the Crimson.
Harvard had several more opportunities to score in the final minutes, but sophomore goaltender Virginia Solomon, who replaced Venechanos midway through the second half, made seven saves.
Guyer finished with seven saves on 28 Terrapin shots. Harvard managed 16 shots for the game.
The Crimson was held under five goals only one other time this season, in an 8-3 defeat at Notre Dame.
"They were big, fast, and had good stick skills," Gotha said. "They worked really well together as a team."
The Crimson's sub-.500 season belies a competitiveness present in many of their games throughout the year.
"We were very unlucky in a lot of our games this year," Corkery said. "We were competitive with a lot of teams but were just unable to pull out wins."
