Crimson Stays in Second Place In ECACs

Harvard men's hockey suffered a down-to-the-wire overtime loss against fourth-ranked Boston College on Saturday.

The Crimson (4-2-1, 3-1-1 ECAC) did not slip in the conference standings after the non-league loss, however. Harvard still occupies second place in the conference, trailing No. 15 Vermont, who dropped two non-conference games to inferior teams over the extended holiday weekend.

Maine 1, Dartmouth 2

The weekend saw some other exciting upsets, beginning with Dartmouth's 2-1 victory over Maine.

Dartmouth (2-5, 1-3) shocked the No. 11 Black Bears Saturday night, netting a goal in the final minutes of overtime to pull out the upset.

The goal came with 1:20 left in the sudden death period, as a pair of sophomore defenseman connected to sink Maine (5-4-3, 2-1-1 Hockey East). Pete Summerfelt took a blue line pass from Trevor Byrne, and then stepped up to rip a 35-foot game winner past Maine junior Mike Morrison for the victory.

Morrison made 36 saves on the night, but Big Green sophomore Nick Boucher got the win, making 31 saves, 12 coming in the third period.
