Last year, the Cadets went 28-5-1 playing a Division II schedule.

If the Crimson beats Dartmouth during intersession, almost a certainty at home considering its 11-1 pasting of the Big Green at Hanover, N.H. last month, the Harvard men's hockey team would have a January record of 4-1.

Not even the ECAC championship team two years ago could boast such an impressive mark. That squad finished up the first month of the year 3-2.

Throw out '83 and '85 and the exam-plagued icemen have compiled a '2-17 overall record in January in the 80's

Two Harvard players were named to the ECAC Honor Roll this week.

Junior Tim Smith earned the distinction for the second consecutive week by setting a new ECAC record for consecutive games with a goal (13)

Smith, a former defensemen who had scored a grand total of five times in his first two years, set the mark against Clarkson Friday night, but saw his streak end the following evening at St. Lawrence.

The right wing now has 19 goals and 10 assists for the season.

John Devin was named to the honor roll for the first time after saving the day for the Crimson against St. Lawrence.

The virtually untested freshman netminder stopped 29 of 31 shots in 55 minutes of relief work after junior goalie Grant Blair was struck in the face early in the contest and had to leave the game.

Just over halfway through the year, the leader in the honor roll appearance category: Scott Fusco, ECAC three, Ivy six. Fusco and defenseman Mark Benning have been ECAC Player of the Week once each and Benning, Blair and Smith have each been Ivy Player of the Week once

In case you missed it. Blair broke his own record of saves in a game when he recorded 60 in the Crimson's 6-6 overtime tie with Boston College in December
