Over the past four games, the Harvard defense has given up just 114 rushing yards on 101 carries.
"This is the first time I have ever abandoned the running game completely," Yale Coach Jack Siedlecki said. "I just knew that we were going to have to win this through the air."
But the chips just didn't fall for the Crimson. The players made the big plays to keep Harvard in the games, but they just couldn't make the plays that would have won them.
"On the breakaway I saw their defenseman cheat toward the puck, so I went to the net," said Botterill, who had two goals and an assist. "Angie gave me a beautiful pass so I just had to put some wood on the puck and throw it in."
"I've never totally abandoned the run until this game," Siedlecki said. "We couldn't run the ball, we just couldn't incorporate the run into our game and make it work."
