Neither Harvard nor Colgate could mount a scoring chance in the rest of regulation, and the overtime period was also scoreless. Colgate was able to fire five shots on Tracy during the extra period, while Harvard was not even able to get a shot on net.
"I was definitely encouraged that after they got those goals that I was able to come back strong and have a good overtime," Tracy said. "Although obviously we're disappointed we didn't get the win, it was vital that we get the tie."
"We look back and wish we could start the third period again," Nielsen said, who took away his fourth consecutive game with a goal. "It is early, we have gotten better...but we played 40 minutes with a one-minute lapse."
For a team that was 10-0-3 last year, a tie at home might be even worse than 'kissing your sister.'
"It's just really frustrating...inexperience definitely plays a part into it, for mental discipline is really important," Lonsinger said. "We're just going to have to learn the hard way."
Harvard won't have much time to study the fine details of mental discipline, though, as they face third-ranked cross town rival B.U. on Tuesday.
As for Martins, his status is day-to-day but looks optimistic for Tuesday's non-league matchup. First Period Har--Lonsinger 2 (Holmes, Craigan) 15:15. Second Period Har--Gustafson 3 (Cohagen, Lonsinger) 15:20. Third Period Col--Cronin 3 (Fogerty, Harder) :40. Col--McIntosh 3 (Debusachere, DeProfio) 1:04. Col--Dexter 1 (Mara, Baaid) 11:31.
