Out of the intermission, the Crimson was aggressive and scored four times in the third quarter, seemingly at will, including the first goal of the season from junior attackman Lawson DeVries. DeVries was a key underclassman scorer for the Crimson last season, nailing down 20 goals and 11 assists while compiling a .445 shooting percentage.
But it was Sprong who wrote the final chapter of the victory, getting the Crimson's final three goals after Buttles had opened the lead to 9-3.
Harvard was typically effective clearing the ball, making 28 good out of 35, including 12 of 15 in the second half.
Notes
With four goals, Sprong maintains the team scoring lead with nine goals and 10 points. In just three games, Sprong has now equaled his goal total from his rookie season, when he scored nine goals and collected four assists.
Oberman collected his first point of the season when he assisted on McGowan's goal in the second.
