What would you like to know about the national champion Harvard hockey team?

If you read the papers in St. Paul, Minn., last weekend, you were privy to a whole lot of interesting little Crimson facts.

But sorry, Minnesota readers. The papers were not talking about Harvard hockey. They were just talking about Hahvahd.

Let's talk SAT scores. Or net worth. Would you like to know what a year at Harvard costs? The amount of financial aid awarded? How many players dish out the full $18,000+ to play hockey for the oldest college in the land?

Junior Ed Krayer netted a goal to win the national championship in overtime, but during the post-game interviews few reporters asked about the play. The goal? Forget it. Tell us why you dropped out of school a year-and-a-half ago, Ed.

Leave Harvard? In the middle of the hockey season, no less? Was it (pause for emphasis here, folks) for academic reasons?

"The team and the hockey was great," Krayer explained, "but I just wasn't getting a lot out of being there. I felt like I was wasting a lot of my father's money."

How much of your father's money, Ed? Can you give it to us in round figures?

Over Here

Step over to your left, and we'll talk to Hughes, the rookie goalie who stayed cool through three hard-fought periods and one heart-stopping overtime.

Tell me, Chuckie, what do your parents do for a living? Your dad's a cop, you say? How much do Boston policemen make these days?

Even junior Tod Hartje, a local from Anoka, Minn., couldn't avoid the labels.

After Harvard's semifinal win on Thursday, during which Hartje set up an Ed Krayer goal on a beautiful banking pass off the boards, the local press asked him about his numbers. No, not stats. SAT scores.

So what about the hockey? You know--skills, style, shooting ability?

Well, according to the St. Paul Pioneer Press Dispatch, Harvard's a skating and shooting team--with a style almost like the play of Coach Doug Woog's Golden Gophers.
