...HAVEN, Conn.—With 10 minutes remaining in the Crimson’s Saturday night loss at Yale, Harvard captain Jim Goffredo connected on his first shot of the night, a straight-away three-pointer that cut the Yale lead to 56-51. It looked like the type of shot that could revitalize Goffredo, a streaky outside shooter who relies on rhythm and confidence, and give Harvard the perimeter attack it was sorely missing...
...With about six minutes remaining Sullivan substituted out Goffredo for freshman point guard Jeremy Lin. It looked like the end of the night for Goffredo, the end of one of the worst games of his career and a tough loss for the Crimson. But Goffredo, a consummate captain, slapped Lin on the back and coolly walked to his side of the bench, then came back in to finish out the loss, hitting four free throws in the process.

But the Bears defense was able to load up on the perimeter without worrying about being hurt down low, especially after it had decoded Harvard’s offensive attack in the second half. Goffredo shot 4-of-7 overall...
...first special-teams goal in its last 17 power plays, but it would not be its last of the night. After Brown’s Jeff Prough responded with a man-advantage goal of his own, junior Alex Meintel managed to tip in an offering from captain Dylan Reese on the power play to regain the lead for the Crimson.Once again, however, Brown evened the score. Prough swooped into the right faceoff circle and sent a wrist shot past freshman goalie Kyle Richter for the game’s fourth power play goal to tie the score...
