Yet, the Crimson was able to convert one of its power play chances into points. With five minutes left in the frame, freshman Mary Parker made Brown pay for tripping and slashing penalties by gathering a bouncing puck in the crease and shoveling it home while Harvard was on a five-on-three.

Seven seconds into the final period, Fry put her team up, 4-1, by scoring a dagger goal immediately following the opening faceoff.

“Instead of having their wing lined right up against me, they kind of had her pulled back a bit…so that gave me a little more room to go,” Fry said.  “Then I just thought I caught the defense off-guard.”

Spurling added a goal 10 minutes later to give Harvard its second straight five-goal game.

“That’s great,” Stone said. “It’s nice to have offense coming from a lot of different places.”

The Bears tallied a late goal with less than two minutes remaining, but it wasn’t enough to end Brown’s 24-game winless streak against the Crimson that dates back to 2002.
