Cornell 3 at Colgate 1 postgame thread

[billhoward]

[reposted] Like a Cornell team of 2002-2003 - not much offense but when you only give up 1 goal a game, you win, or at least go to overtime.

I thought tonight (Saturday) at Colgate the dumb penalties were going to do us in.  

A pair of late 1-goal wins (tonight plus ENG) is great for morale.

4-POINT WEEKEND!!!!!


Great effort shorthanded--I think this team might have turned the corner

We worked harder for 4 points this weekend than 3 at home last week.

Very gutsy play tonight.  They made up for the bad penalties with an exceptional PK, even without Fontas.  It was obvious that many guys were wearing down from the big hits, but they hung in there.  Colgate has a big physical team, but they just couldn't match the Big Red in skill.  I'm glad they didn't hammer Day and just beat him instead.  

Time to head North.

For the first time in two seasons, Cornell ascends to the orange (+5 in ECAC).

I completely agree and hope it is a sign of things to come.

I believe he got injured when the North Country teams came to town.

Can't remember there having been a CHA bus to Clarkson/St. Lawrence before... it's an extremely long trip.  I suspect we'd have heard about it by now.  Is there a rideboard somewhere on any Cornell website these days?  Or you could try Craigslist and/or Facebook.  I know some Lynah Faithful make the trip every year, just not as many as for most away games because of the remote location.
