It was a devastating turn of events for Coach Bob Gaudet’s team.
“We worked hard to get that goal, but it was called back,” Gaudet said. “And then, bang—we go from a 3-2 lead to being down 4-2,” Gaudet said.
Harvard extended its lead to the final margin of victory 8:45 into the third period, as Nowak rifled a shot past
Boucher from the top of the left faceoff circle.
After the game, Mazzoleni praised his young players on defense and in goal.
“Our defense played extremely well, and [Crothers] made big saves both nights, which is a very positive
indication and a confidence builder,” Mazzoleni said.
TheCrimson will next compete at Vermont and Dartmouth next weekend.
