...junior and senior seasons. New Hampshire coach Sean McDonnell took home the Eddie Robinson Award, which is awarded to the I-AA coach of the year. McDonnell led the Wildcats to a 10-1 regular season mark and a No. 1 ranking in the final poll before the postseason. New Hampshire suffered a 24-21 home loss in the quarterfinals of the I-AA playoffs to one of tonight’s title game participants, Northern Iowa. Brown coach Phil Estes finished fifth in the voting, a year after Harvard coach Tim Murphy finished second in balloting for the award...

McDavitt paced Harvard this year with 12 points on four scores and four assists. The designation marks the second straight year she has been recognized among the Ancient Eight elite. As a sophomore, she was named to the second...

Last year’s ECAC season ended with Cornell, the Crimson and Colgate at one-two-three, as did the conference’s postseason tournament. The squads were one-two-five in the nation for team defense, and the Big Red also boasted the best special teams—on both ends of the ice—in the country.
