And into the void stepped junior Kate Buesser.
“I was happy to fill in that role,” Buesser said. “Coming into the season, I prepared well, and I knew I was a good player out there. I just really wanted to show what we could do with this team.?...
Buesser broke through in the fourth game of the season, scoring twice and notching an assist in the Crimson’s 3-0 win over St. Lawrence. And from that point on, she steadily emerged as the leader of Harvard’s new-look offense.
The junior finished the year with 40 points, more than double her career best of 16 and tied for the ECAC lead. For her efforts, Buesser was a top-three finalist for ECAC Player of the Year while being named to the All-ECAC and All-Ivy First Teams.
Buesser spent much of the year playing with rookie center Jillian Dempsey, who wound up 10th in the country in rookie scoring, and Ryabkina—a line that consistently created scoring opportunities and combined for 14 points in four playoff games.
