...Singh turned the doorknob—only to discover he was locked in. After a fellow classmate and conspirator freed him, Singh, who while concealed had inexplicably covered himself with remnants of band uniforms, burst from his hideaway, singing “I Will Survive” while he ran for the door. A first glance at Singh’s CV reveals an overachieving Harvard student: he is a First-year Urban Program leader and a theater producer with nine plays to his name.

...complete dominance in power-play minutes. Through the first two periods Harvard committed only one penalty, resulting in a two-minute power play. Providence, by contrast, committed five penalties for ten minutes of power play time through the first two frames.In the third period however, the Crimson ran out of steam, its tough recent schedule perhaps taking a toll, and began committing penalties (four for eight minutes).
