...upstate New York is a long, exhausting and desolate bus trip for a Crimson team when the season is on the line. With a loss or tie to the now-No. 10 Clarkson squad at Potsdam, N.Y. this past Saturday, the No. 8 Harvard women’s hockey team would possibly have had to make the journey back to the Golden Knights’ home next week for the opening round of the ECAC playoffs. But a quick shot from senior Jennifer Raimondi—netting her second crunch-time goal of the night—with only...
...Harvard men’s hockey team got exactly what it was looking for with a weekend sweep over St. Lawrence and Clarkson: the opportunity to take the next weekend off. The Crimson (17-10-2, 13-8-1 ECAC) needed four points on the weekend to guarantee a first-round bye in the league playoffs, which begin next Friday.

Whether it be forcing the band to choose between hockey and basketball, leaving it idle on nights when there is a basketball game but no hockey game, or whether it be the failure to promote its biggest events or even directly communicate to students that tickets would be necessary to gain entrance into Lavietes for Penn-Princeton weekend, the Harvard basketball program makes little attempt to sell itself to the students and cultivate a fan base...
...tomorrow night, the Harvard men’s hockey team will know its ECAC postseason fate. With just two games left to play for every squad, the league postseason picture is still foggy at best, and the Crimson could end up anywhere from the top of the pack to eighth in the 12-team standings. But one thing is certain: if Harvard sweeps this weekend’s home contests against St. Lawrence and Clarkson, it will finish fourth at worst. That would clinch one of the four first-round byes for the league playoffs, which begin March...
