Despite being shutout 3-0 by Boston College on Friday night, the Harvard men's hockey team can at least take solace in the fact that it remains in a three-way tie for the top spot in the ECAC.
The conference standings remained unchanged this week, this weekend's slate of games featured no league contests.
However, in seven games against Hockey East opponents, ECAC teams posted a sub-par 2-5 record.
Of the two teams sharing first place in the ECAC with the Crimson (5-5-0 overall, 5-3-0 ECAC), only No. 10 Colgate saw action this week, earning a split in two games against Ferris State.
The Red Raiders (10-5-0, 5-3-0) earned a 4-1 win on Friday night before falling to the Bulldogs, 3-2, on Saturday.
In the first game, Colgate netted three of its four goals in the second period. The Red Raiders' attack was led by ECAC Co-Rookie of the Week P.J. Yedon, who collected a goal and an assist on the night.
Additionally, Colgate goalie Shep Harder stopped 29 shots, and was named ECAC Goalie of the Week.
On Saturday, Colgate saw its 15-game home unbeaten snapped by the Wildcats. Prior to that loss, the Red Raiders had won 8 of its previous ten contests.
