The Naiks welcomed them, offering them the only seat in the unit--on the double bed that took up almost the entire room. The space was lit by a single bare lightbulb. Through an interpreter, the Naiks patiently answered all the Gateses' questions...

And the Big Green did it all, though Donato said the loss had less to do with particular plays and “more to do with mental toughness, with being prepared to win, being prepared to battle.” Thus far this season, embarrassing losses have lit fires under the Crimson skaters. Early-November defeats at the hands of Quinnipiac and Cornell were followed by a 4-0-1 run. Two of those wins and the tie came against top-15 opponents. And then in an early-December stretch of three games in five days, Harvard lost...
