Brown, however, dominated the rest of the third period. The Bears poured on the offense and mounted its comeback with the help of the sloppy Crimson defense.
After a few sequences where Harvard defenders got away with dangerous passes and carries in front of their own net, the Bears finally managed to capitalize.
Brown winger Kim Insalaco, holding the puck behind the Harvard net, found winger Kristy Zamora wide open on the doorstep and she one-timed it past Springer, cutting the Crimson lead to two.
"I just think that our team needs to realize that when the other team scores a goal, the game's not over." Shewchuk said.
After the second Brown goal, the Bears stepped up their play even more, and Harvard was unable to counter.
With senior defenseman Christie MacKinnon in the box for checking, Brown junior captain Tara Mounsey found the loose puck along side the Harvard net. Untouched, she slipped the puck by Springer for a power play goal at 14:06, making the score 4-3.
"Our team definitely has to work on overall defensive zone coverage," Shewchuk said.
