Peljto finished with her 31 points, and also grabbed 16 rebounds, and Cserny scored 23 while snatching 11 boards. Together the pair accounted for 54 of Harvard’s 68 points.

While the Crimson players may not have tightened up on the court, Harvard’s two victories this weekend combined with league-leading Penn’s loss on Friday to Brown certainly tightened the race for the Ivy title.

No team has ever won the Ivy crown with four losses, but there is still a chance that, with enough help from just about every Ivy team, the Crimson can grab a share of the title.

But Harvard players and coaches are not wasting breath discussing such a possibility, or devoting any time thinking about the championship and the automatic bid to the NCAA Tournament that goes with it.

“We’re absolutely not talking about it,” Delaney-Smith said. “Of course it would be exciting for us, but I think it’s important for us to just take care of each game and stay in the moment.”

This weekend, the Crimson will host Yale, a team that upset Harvard earlier this month, on Friday and Brown on Saturday in the Crimson’s last home games of the year.

“We’ve kind of put ourselves in the state of mind of dividing the season in two halves and starting last night we get to play everybody again and avenge every loss and whatever happens, happens,” Tubridy said.
