Although Harvard was only outshot by one, Doyle’s routine denial of golden opportunities kept the Crimson in check and preserved the five-goal margin of victory.
Shooting accuracy worked against Harvard as well, as 11-of-29 Crimson shots missed the target.
Additionally, Harvard struggled to capitalize on free-position opportunities, failing to convert on eight chances.
“We had some lapses on attack,” Belitsos said. “We didn’t get off as many good shots as we could have considering the opportunities we had.”
The Crimson seeks its first win of the season on Wednesday afternoon at Boston College at 3:30 p.m.
