Penn trailed 54-51 when Kyle Casey made two free throws with 1:48 left to play. But Rosen, who had a game-high 20 points, knocked down a jumper and then made his two go-ahead free throws to lift Penn to the victory.
Rosen was the only player to score in double figures for the Quakers, who shot 48.8 percent (20 of 41) from the floor. The Crimson shot 44.4 percent (16 of 36) for the game.
Casey scored 12 points and had five turnovers for Harvard (24-4, 10-2).
