DENVER—Maybe it was the altitude. Or perhaps it was history, a history that motivated Denver to exorcize the demons of the past two years, when the Harvard men’s lacrosse team recorded twin upsets of the Pioneers.
Or maybe it was a second-half Crimson letdown and a late Denver surge that propelled the Pioneers (6-4) past Harvard in a 10-9 overtime win on Saturday afternoon in front of 1,480 fans at Peter Barton Lacrosse Stadium in Denver, Colo.
It was the third straight loss for the Crimson (4-4) and the final contest in a three-game road swing that sent Harvard all across the country during spring break.
