...said. “All 24 players have contributed and that’s the reason we’re here.”Certainly, Harvard’s vaunted offense has been matched all season with stellar defense. Cahow and sophomore goalie Christina Kessler anchor a unit that leads the country with only .90 goals allowed/game and boasts the nation’s fourth best penalty kill at 91%.
