...four goal outburst at the beginning of the second period sealed the Crimson's fate, as The Terriers skated off with a 8-3 victory before the largest crowd ever in B.U.'s modern arena. Seven different B.U. players scored, sharing a total of 43 shots on Harvard's frustrated Brian Petrovek...

These sentiments seem out of place today, but they still have some applicability. The fate of Harvard's alumni contribution fund depends in large part on the success of its athletic squads, particularly on how the football team performs against its Ivy League competitors. Lynch's last minute kick on Saturday may well have been a $64,000 connection. Who can even estimate the economic value of coach Percy Haughton...
