Icewomen Tackle Bruins, 2-1

Joslin Nets Two to Power Crimson

"When you get out of the penalty box, you want to make a difference," Joslin said.

Then with 13 seconds left in regulation, Brown's Whitney Robbins drew a tripping minor which carried into overtime.

And what an overtime it was.

Harvard carried the play into the zone, and Brown continued to be aggressive short-handed as it had been in regulation. But then Joslin gave up the puck and a Bruin skated in all alone. White, strong as ever, made the stop.

"Jen White rose to the occasion," Dooley said. "This was her best game ever."

"After the breakaway, I said, `Come on, let's go,'" White said. "I started laughing and that loosened us up."

Same Spot, Different End

It sure did. With the power play ticking down to under 30 seconds, Lind picked up the puck at the left point and shot it wide. It ricocheted out to Joslin between the faceoff circles. She fired a low shot which went through a maze of players and through Rendell's legs.

"I was just glad they didn't score right away when I gave up that breakaway," Joslin said.

"When you play with emotion, you're going to beat some people," Dooley said. "We stole the game."

THE NOTEBOOK: Before last year, Brown had won two consecutive Ivy League titles. Harvard, of course, captured last year's title with a 10-0 league record...Last year, Brown finished with a 2-6 Ivy record.
