...learn from its mistakes in tight situations and use its experience to its advantage. “We all know that this is our last year so we’re not going to be distracted,” said senior Siddharth Suchde, Harvard’s first position starter. “You really know when to focus more, and during what parts of the year [the matches are more crucial],” Oren said. “In the past we would lose some really close games, but this year I think [our experience] is going...

Boe, a three-year starter and the program’s all-time record holder in shutouts (15) and goals-against average (1.92), directed the Crimson to three straight ECAC tournament titles, back-to-back NCAA Championship games in 2004 and 2005, and the Frozen Eight quarterfinals a year ago. “Watching her play, seeing...
