"We were lucky that Chuckie came up big forus," said sophomore Ted Donato, who chalked up agoal and an assist.

For the first two periods, the Crimson showedno signs of slowing down, collecting three goalsin the first 12 minutes of the game and adding twomore in the middle period. At the 7:38 mark of thefirst period, Donato notched his seventh goal ofthe season when he took a pass from linemate JohnMurphy and shot the puck past Eagle goalie DaveLittman (17 saves).

The Crimson took a 2-0 lead less than a minutelater as Craig Taucher deflected a Brian McCormackslapshot from the point.

"I stuck out my foot," Taucher said. "The puckbounced off it and went in. I was glad the refdidn't see it."

The way Harvard played for the first 40 minutesof the game, the thought of a late B.C. surge wasas remote as the thought of Cleary ever standingstill on the Harvard bench.

"I've been on the other end for many, manyyears," Cleary said. "I don't feel badly at all."CrimsonGavin R.
