W. Hockey Sweeps Weekend Pair

“[Those goals] didn’t faze us,” tri-captain Kat Sweet said. “We were totally dominating in the game and we knew we were going to win. We just had to keep playing hard.”

HARVARD 3, COLGATE 0

After showing off its offensive guns the night before, Harvard showcased its defense and goaltending against Colgate.

Boe shined on a night of limited action, stopping all 10 pucks that came her way for her third shutout of the season.

Once again, though, the Crimson’s offense proved to be a smothering defense as well.

“We played so much better than [Friday night],” Sweet said. “[We were] moving the puck faster, attacking the goal faster, and shooting from everywhere.”

Corriero started the scoring just 14 seconds into the first period, poking home her own rebound with an assist from Chu.

“Everyone was really on key,” Chu said.

That might have been an understatement for the humble Chu, who notched an assist on each of the three Harvard goals against the Raiders.

Corriero wasn’t done for the weekend, either. With another Chu assist from the Crimson’s own defensive zone, she managed to get behind the Raiders defensive line and put away her second goal of the night at 9:42 in the first period.

The offensive domination was apparent in the shots total. Harvard outshot Colgate 18-2 in the first period and finished with 35 shots to the Raiders’ 10.

“The emphasis today was holding the red line,” Chu said. “[The Raiders] didn’t have an opportunity to skate the puck and would have to chip it out. Everyone was ready to go hard and not give [Colgate] a lot of space to move with the puck.”

Vaillancourt brought home the third and final goal of the game when she bounced a shot off the inside of the left post to hit the back of the net at 5:24 in the third period.

The Crimson attributed its weekend performance to a newly intensified practice schedule.

Since coming back from the holiday break, head coach Katey Stone has brought the team’s regular practices to a whole new level in hopes of jump starting the team.
