"We weren't surprised by Menick," Princeton Coach Steve Tosches said after the game. "We knew Harvard was going to run the ball. We thought we were ready, I guess not."
By the end of the game, Harvard had abandoned all pretense of balance on offense. Of the ten plays on the final drive, seven were running plays, six of those going to Menick.

The most dominating aspect of that drive was Princeton knew that the ball was going to Menick, and there wasn't a thing that it could do about it.
For this reason, The Crimson honors Chris Menick as our Athlete of the Week.
