Harvard turned to that blend of youth and experience in beating Quinnipiac 5-3 at Bright Hockey Center—a victory highlighted by the work of freshman Sarah Wilson and senior Jennifer Raimondi. The duo combined for six points including four Raimondi assists—half of which came on Wilson’s two goals. “Being able to play with JR as a freshman is a really good thing,” Wilson said. “She has three years...
