M. Hockey Sweeps Tigers, Elis

Moores, Bala shine in first win at Yale since 1993

Harvard 4, Princeton 2

In order for Harvard to make a run at home ice, it not only had to claim the seniors first win at the Whale, but also at Princeton's Hobey Baker Rink.

In a weekend of first for the Crimson, it did just that.

"It was our last shot in four years to come down here," Scorsune said. "Fortunately we ended up with a win."

The first period began without much flow or consistency, with both teams using a slow, passive clutch-and-grab style. The Crimson posted the first quality shot on a three-on-one rush at 7:14.

Allman slid a pass across to Stay, but Princeton goaltender Dave Stathos made the save.

And barely a minute later, Tigers' captain Darren Yopyk tallied the first and only goal of the night for the Tigers, putting Princeton up 1-0 at 8:28 with a wrist shot that went top shelf on Prestifilippo.

Harvard, however, generated more offense as the period and Steve Moore equalized the score with only eight seconds remaining in the first period.
