Senior Kwaku Nyamekye, juniors Rob Millock and Jaren LaGreca, and sophomore Baba Omosegbon combined with sophomore goalie Austin Harms to shut down BU and bring home the win for the Crimson. “We were very solid on defense,” senior co-captain Andre Akpan said. “We gave [the Terriers] a couple of chances but nothing too serious—our back line was fantastic.” While BU out-shot Harvard 19-16, the Crimson defenders blocked eight attempts and Harms...
