PROVIDENCE, R.I. — Harmoni Turner scored 24 points and Harvard beat Columbia 74-71 to win the Ivy League Tournament for the first time in school history. It's the Crimson's first trip to the NCAA Tournament since 2007. Fittingly the back-and-forth game came down to the final few plays. Harvard led by five with 17.6 seconds left before Columbia scored three of the next four to get within 74-71. The Crimson had a chance to seal it, but Elena Rodriguez missed a wide-open layup with 5.2 seconds left, giving Columbia once last opportunity. After a timeout, Riley Weiss took a 3-pointer from the wing that rimmed out just before the buzzer.
