The real Game this weekend will be on ice and in New Hampshire.
In what promises to be the biggest showdown in the Harvard women's hockey team's, No. 2 Harvard (3-1-0, 1-1-0 ECAC) will face off against newly crowned No. 1 UNH (4-0-0, 2-0-0 ECAC). It will mark the Crimson's first ECAC road trip.
UNH and Harvard faced-off four times last year, each time ending in a Crimson victory. The teams met in both the ECAC championship and the AWCHA championship games--both went to overtime.
And for the second straight weekend, the Crimson will be facing a team that wishes to extract revenge.
The Crimson is coming off a 1-1 ECAC weekend, having lost to then-No. 7 Dartmouth last Friday. It did rebound to beat Boston College, 7-2 Saturday, but the defeat demoted Harvard to No. 2 in the polls.
Harvard clobbered the Big Green in last year's ECAC semi-finals, 8-1.
The Wildcats are coming off a strong weekend, beating Yale and No. 9 Princeton, 7-0 and 5-3 respectively.
"We are very motivated and really want to reclaim the No. 1 spot," captain Kim McManama said.
