...that, the Terrier offense had trouble getting the puck on frame, with only seven of 22 attempts making it on target. But when the Crimson gave the opponent man-advantages in the remaining periods, BU proved its power-play mettle and broke through Harvard’s defense to score a pair of momentum-shifting goals.

Blowouts occur frequently in all levels of athletics, but it was the two seemingly opposite and gruesomely perfect ends of the score (100-0) that thrust this particular game into the limelight. While the absurdity of the score is substantial, this game, with or without the ink printed about it, is another instance of the absence of sportsmanship. The Covenant School of Dallas has since issued an apology for the game and asked...
