Friday against Princeton, the Crimson had the opposite problem, as a sluggish first period proved to be the difference-maker.
In the battle between two ECAC giants, the Harvard men’s hockey team (5-11-3, 5-6-3 ECAC) came up just short in Friday night’s matchup against Princeton (8-10-2, 4-8-1), losing, 2-1, at Bright Hockey Center.
Harvard (14-3, 3-0 Ivy) lived up to its coach’s standards, blowing past Columbia (6-11, 0-3) on the road, 74-45, the night before the Crimson’s much-anticipated matchup against Ivy League favorite Cornell.
“We didn’t play up to our capabilities and in a game like this, against a team like Cornell in this environment, we obviously need to play much better,” Harvard coach Tommy Amaker said.
Seven-foot center Jeff Foote led Cornell with 16 points, nine rebounds, and four assists, scoring most of his baskets on post moves in the paint—including two flushes—against the Crimson’s undersized big men.
