Berry had 13 points and distributed the ball well, dishing out five assists.
Clark was active at all ends of the floor, scoring 11 points, pulling down three rebounds, and grabbing a pair of steals.
“I was pretty happy with our team defense,” Delaney-Smith said. “And I was pretty happy with our balanced scoring and our team work…we haven’t been balanced, so that was good.”
Stifling man-to-man defense from the Crimson left the Hawks looking disorganized on offense, shooting 35.8 percent from the field for the game. Harvard also outworked Hartford on the glass, pulling down 42 rebounds to 25. The Crimson shot 52.4 percent from the field, including 37.5 percent from behind the arc.
“Overall, it was just a great team victory,” Berry said. “And the only reason I got my shots was because my teammates were giving me the open passes—it was really a team effort.”
