But understand this: without sophomore Tom Holmes, Harvard would have been on the bum end of a 3-0 loss. Two assists preceded his game-typing goal, scored with 2:05 to play and only two minutes after Tony Ranaldi appeared to give Princeton the victory.
What made Holmes' contribution all the more impressive was the fact that he suffered a knee injury earlier this season which looked like it might keep him out of the Harvard line-up well into February. Acknowledging this, Head Coach Ronn Tomassoni called him "the miracle man" after the game...
"Just glad to be back helping the team," Holmes (or is it Nuke Laloosh?) said. "I was a little lucky tonight but I'll take it."
Could the Demons of Beanpots Future have been playing tricks with the Crimson of Harvard Present? No if Tommy Holmes was to have any say in it--he worked hard in deep to set up an open chance for senior Derek Maguire, who slipped a change-up past Princeton netminder...
And Holmes again turned provider for the goal-sniffing nose of junior Cory Gustafson: he pounced on Holmes's rebound for his 16th goal of the year and gave the Crimson the lead only seconds after it looked like Harvard would go one down.
