Coming out of last weekend's games, the Crimson shifted lines slightly--moving Calagione to defense on some shifts and moving Leitzes up to forward.

Just 30 seconds later the Eagles struck again as B.C.'s Kate Antos slid the puck past Villiotte after a scramble in front of the Crimson net.

"We weren't ready, and sort of out of it after the first goal," Leitzes said. "They just jumped on us before we recovered."

Harvard survived a scare later in the period as Antos had a point-blank opportunity denied by Villiotte. The Crimson regained its composure, though, and was able to hold off the Eagles for the remainder of the game.

"It's hard coming off a double game weekend," A.J. Mleczko said. "We're all tired, but having the Beanpot at home really helped gear us up, and we wanted to avenge the men's loss."

The Crimson's win earned them a finals showdown with Northeastern, which advanced with a 24-0 win against B.U. in the first game last night.

Before the Tuesday finals, however, Harvard will play host to New Hampshire and Colby over the weekend--both very powerful teams.

New Hampshire leads the ECAC and Colby defeated the Crimson 6-3 last weekend.

"It's tough to play three games in a week," A.J. Mleczko said. "We're going to be tired again so we'll have to reach down deep."

The Crimson tied Northeastern, 2-2, at home earlier this year but has hopes of taking the Beanpot away from the defending champion Huskies.

"We tied them earlier," A. J. Mleczko said. "But we're a better team now so I think we can win it." HARVARD, 3-2 at Bright Arena Harvard  1  1  1  --  3 B.C.  0  0  2  --  2
