"Special teams have been a real strength of our team," Mazzoleni said. "The powerplay's operating on the high end and the penalty kills at 92 percent. When you get that and good goaltending you have a chance to stay in every game."
Jonas delivered an acrobatic 47-save performance, and Harvard's special teams chipped in a pair to down Colgate 4-1.
"If there was a vote in our league right now for an MVP, Oli would get it," Mazzoleni said. "He's very difficult to beat right now."
After Harvard captain Steve Moore was called for holding at 9:23 of the third, he didn't have to wait long for his little brother to bail him out.
Off the ensuing face-off, D. Moore tapped the puck through the legs of Red Raiders captain Cory Murphy, side-stepped the defender at the blueline, and skated 114 feet untouched to put Harvard ahead 2-1 nine seconds later.
"When you are coming down the stretch big players have to make big plays, and Domi did," Mazzoleni said. "I have not seen a sophomore in the country as good as him and we've seen a lot of great players."
It was Moore's team-leading fifth game-winning goal and second short-handed goal of the season.
