...sum, Harvard's offense will be fine in 1999-2000, even if Coach Katey Stone does not recruit a talented Class of 2003--and that's highly unlikely. In addition to Mleczko, the only forwards Stone will lose who saw the ice in the postseason are Jen Gerometta and Kyle Walsh. Gerometta and Walsh were both hardworking skaters, but almost all of the scoring came from Mleczko and the five underclassmen...
