Yale and Harvard, this time with Ivy hoops crown at stake

It’s time for The Game, basketball style. The rivalry between Harvard and Yale is moving indoors, where the schools will play for basketball bragging rights and a chance to all but clinch an Ivy League championship. This year’s matchup has more on the line than any meeting in decades – if not ever. The winner of tonight’s game at Harvard’s sold-out Lavietes Pavillion in Boston will be able to claim the conference title with another victory on Saturday. Harvard (20-6, 10-2 Ivy) is looking for its fifth straight league crown. Yale (21-8, 10-2) is looking for its first title and first NCAA tournament berth since John F. Kennedy was in the White House. – Associated Press
