GAME NOTES: Still waiting for their first win in a true road game this season, the Harvard Crimson try their luck tonight against Yale in an Ivy League tilt at the John J. Lee Amphitheater in New Haven. Last weekend Harvard made visits to both Penn and Princeton and was turned away in both cases. The Crimson have now lost three in a row and 10 of the last 12 games overall, not to mention all 11 true road tilts thus far. Meanwhile, Yale has also suffered in recent weeks with three consecutive setbacks. Last Saturday, the team was stopped by Cornell at home in a 66-45 blowout. The Bulldogs will take on Dartmouth tomorrow night to close out a four-game homestand before beginning a four-game road trek next week. Yale leads the all-time series against the Crimson with a mark of 110-65, winning four straight, including an 86-71 victory from last season.

Harvard actually led at the break by a basket last Saturday against Princeton on the road, but then the Crimson were blown out of the water by 16 points in the second half. Jeremy Lin stepped in with a team-best 17 points and grabbed nine rebounds in 32 minutes of work for the visitors, while Brad Unger contributed 11 points and seven boards. Harvard comes into the week ranked second in the Ivy League in scoring with 70.2 ppg, but on a national scale that places the program 154th out of 328 teams. Turnovers continue to be a bone of contention for the unit, ranking second-to-last in the league with 16.4 miscues per outing. Lin is first on the team in scoring with his 13.1 ppg and he is one of the more active rebounders with five per contest, not to mention also placing first in terms of assists with almost three and a half per outing.

Yale went from making just eight field goals in the first half last Saturday to one less after the break, en route to a dismal loss to Cornell at home. The Bulldogs finished the game shooting a miserable 25.9 percent from the field, 3- of-17 beyond the arc and 12-of-24 at the free-throw line. Alex Zampier came off the bench to tally a team-best 12 points and Ross Morin contributed a double- double with 10 points and a team-best 11 rebounds. The team has just two double-digit scorers on the roster at the moment in Eric Flato and Caleb Holmes who are responsible for 12.6 and 10.1 ppg, respectively, although the former is shooting just 38.5 percent from the field. Morin (9.9 ppg), the one player to have started all 18 games this season, leads the program with 5.8 rpg.

Although the Crimson played well in the first half last weekend, the team is still not capable of giving quality programs a 40-minute fight on the road. Yale might be more Harvard's speed at the moment, but until the Crimson shows it can win on another team's floor, it is tough to lean in their favor.
