Harvard 5, Cornell 4(OT)
Freshman Scott Fusco's two goals spurred Harvard to its only win at Lynah since 1975. Fusco tallied a shorthanded goal in the first period, but the Crimson took a 4-2 deficit to the locker room for the first intermission. After that, Harvard took over. Goalie Wade Lau shut out Cornell the rest of the way, and the Crimson managed a goal period against All-American Brian Hayward.
At 3:32 of overtime, Fusco netted his only gamewinner of the year. "At first there was dead silence in the rink," says Fusco. It was weird after there had been deafening noise the whole game. There was 20 of us screaming and yelling and it was just dead silence in the rest of the rink.
Harvard finished second in the ECAC Tournament, while Cornell failed to make the playoffs.
