He capped the drive with a 19-yard touchdown pass to Edwards in the left corner of the end zone. Jim Morocco’s (Sharon, PA) kick deflected off the right upright, however, leaving the game tied at 6-6. Harvard took the lead thanks in part to another Columbia turnover, as Bobby Everett (Ann Arbor, MI) picked off an Otis pass that was juggled by a Lion

Andy Lenzini Photo receiver, setting Harvard up at the Columbia 37. Freshman tailback Clifton Dawson (Scarborough, ONT) capped the Crimson drive by scoring on a delayed handoff up the middle on fourth-and-goal from the 1, and Morocco’s PAT gave Harvard a 13-7 lead. Harvard linebacker Dante Balestracci (New Bedford, MA) temporarily knocked Otis out of the game with a hard hit to the Lion signal-caller as he re- leased the ball. Otis returned after two plays on the sidelines, but threw his third interception of the first half on his first play back. Harvard cornerback Benny Butler (Louisville, KY) came up with his team-leading fifth pick of the season at the Crimson 15-yard line, giving Harvard a chance to increase its lead. Dawson then brought Harvard into Lion territory with a 43-yard run, but Morocco missed a 36-yard field goal with 15 seconds left in the second quarter, leaving Harvard with a 13-7 lead into the break. Harvard sputtered on its first two drives of the third quarter, but punter Adam Kingston (Omaha, NE) pinned the Lions deep in their own territory, in- cluding a 55-yard kick that put the Lions inside their own 1-yard line. Columbia chipped away at the lead with 3:52 left in the third quarter as Nick Rudd capped a 13-play, 90-yard drive with a 19-yard field goal to make it 13-9 before the heroics by Nwokocha and Otis.

Putting together another string of impressive victories, he helped the Crimson to a 25th place finish at

All that experience sets the stage for what is sure to be a memorable season for Jantzen and the Harvard wrestling program. “Both years, I thought I had a good opportunity to win,” said Jantzen. “It didn’t work out, but I have no regrets. Now I am just focused on getting that NCAA title this year and then after that I am hopefully going to continue to train for the World Championships and then for the 2008 Olympics.” As the top-ranked wrestler in the 149 lb. weight class, Jantzen will experience a bit of a role reversal this season– he will be the hunted instead of the hunter. “I have some goals that I try to work real hard at,” said Jantzen. “I think the best way to achieve them is to just try to put as much time as you can into what you try to achieve in wrestling. I definitely put a lot of time and work into it. I try to work as hard–or harder–then all of my opponents.
