"It was a huge disappointment to come out with a tie," said sophomore sweeper Mike Lobach. "We missed a lot of chances."

One scoring chance Harvard didn't pass up was in the first minute of play. Sophomore Mike Cornish accepted a pass from sophomore midfielder Joe Steffa and rocketed a shot past B.U. goaltender Mike Cardenas 54 seconds into the game.

With the early momentum, the Crimson continued firing on all cylinders offensively. Fritz, who set up the game-winning goal in the season opener, scored his first collegiate goal off a feed from captain Ryan Kelly and senior midfielder Wells Mangrum.

"Wells played it to Ryan on the endline, and I just stepped inside the 18-yard line and one-timed Ryan's pass," Fritz said.

Unfortunately for the productive Crimson offense, the defense broke down to begin the second half, allowing two goals in five minutes.

"We just came out soft and complacent," Lobach said.

The Terriers quick scoring success tied the game at 2-2 and forced the Crimson offense to once again come up with a sterling strike.

Such an opportunity occurred in the 85th minute when freshman forward Grayson Sugarman drove into the box and readied for a point-blank shot. However, Sugarman was taken down forcibly by a Terrier defender, and no penalty kick was awarded despite the apparent foul.
