Senior Will Keuper, who recently returned from injury, closed the game, earning his first save of the season.

“I’m just so happy for him,” Walsh said. “He’s a senior who hung in there through rehab every single day working hard to get a final appearance, and we really missed him this year. He’s a guy who was very valuable to our pitching staff.”

The conclusion of the weekend’s games marked the end of the road for a senior class that leaves Harvard with an overall combined record of 51-120.

“Even though our record didn’t really show it, we were a completely different team this year from last, and it’s all on those [seniors’] leadership,” Wineski said. “They’ve led our team all year, and they just really set the tone for the rest of us throughout the season.”

As the members of the Class of 2012 finally hung up their cleats, they reflected upon their experiences in Cambridge.

“I just want to give a special thanks to all the coaches and the fans and the teammates for making this experience as a member of the Class of 2012 so great,” senior pitcher Brent Suter said. “Obviously I’ll never forget it or them. Sometimes things don’t work out in the win-loss column, but the friendships I’ve made here will last a lifetime. It’s been an honor to wear the Harvard uniform.”
