...think that it being our first game and their fourth, we just had some first-game jitters,” said co-captain midfielder John Henry Flood. “We got in a 5-0 hole before we knew it.” The margin ballooned to a 7-0 cushion for the Buckeyes with 2:09 to play in the second quarter before senior midfielder Carle Stenmark notched a goal to bring the margin to 7-1 at halftime. Ohio State also had a six-shot lead to go along with its six-goal advantage heading into...
...championship hopes were dashed on Saturday as the team fell to Princeton for the second time this season. After winning a league match on Feb. 11, the Tigers added insult to injury over the weekend by once again defeating the Crimson, this time by a slim margin of 5-4. “The 5-4 match could have gone either way,” coach Satinder Bajwa said. “It’s one of those things.

I think everybody knew right then that we were going to make a great comeback.” Harvard absolutely dominated possession in the opening period, outshooting Yale by a 12-1 margin and earning two power-play chances. But Zilis kept her opponents off the scoreboard, and the Bulldogs stunned the Crimson by seizing a 1-0 lead 2:22 into the second period. “Their goaltender played great,” Stone said. “And she got to see almost...
