Corbin Miller had a game-high 13 points off the bench as No. 24 Harvard cruised to a 54-38 victory over host Dartmouth on Saturday.
Steve Moundou-Missi finished with nine points for Harvard (16-2, 2-0 Ivy), which shot 43.5 percent, including 47.1 from 3-point range.
The win was the Crimson’s second this month over the Big Green. On Jan. 7, Harvard defeated Dartmouth 63-47 in each team’s conference opener.
Dartmouth (4-14, 0-2) struggled offensively throughout and went scoreless for more than four minutes on three separate occasions - twice in the first half and once in the second.
Jvonte Brooks had 12 points and nine rebounds for the Big Green, who shot 31 percent from the field and committed 17 turnovers.
Dartmouth, which was held to its lowest point total since scoring 37 in a loss to Cornell on Jan. 29, 2010, lost for the ninth time in its last 11 games.
The Crimson, who have held all but one opponent - Connecticut - to fewer than 70 points, led 23-16 at halftime and extended their lead to double digits on Kyle Casey’s dunk with 11:21 remaining.
From there, Harvard used a 10-0 run to increase its lead to 20 points.
