FINAL: Union 2 Clarkson 1

[Jeff Hopkins '82]

That means we get Quinny if the favorites all win next week.

[Scersk '97]

And, if the first round games hold form, each quarterfinal features the higher-seeded team vs. what could be considered a "nightmare" opponent... except for us.

Harvard took three of four points against SLU, Dartmouth beat Princeton twice(, we took 3 points against Quinnipiac), and both Union and Clarkson took 2 points from Yale this year.

Sounds great to me.

No matter what, Cornell draws an opponent it's had success against this season:
Clarkson- 1-0-1
Union- 2-0-0
RPI- 2-0-0
QU 1-0-1
Colgate 1-0-2

Also for the first round, Harvard is winless vs. Brown this season, though I don't expect that to last much past Friday.

Tomorrow's game matters only for Yale's PWR and potential DQs. Sets up as a big trap game for Yale heading into the bye, cleary and hobey in hand.

Yale and Colgate are scoreless after one.  Game is being televised on ESPNU.

edit: still scoreless after two.

Thanks for the score.  Game Tracker isn't working in real time.

[nyc94]

Colgate just scored to tie it 1-1 with about 7:15 to go.

[nyc94]

Yale scores with 4:39 to go: 2-1

[jtwcornell91]

Yale goes up 2-1 with 4:39 left.

Why is Yale wearing blue?  Did Colgate only bring their whites because Brown was in black and pink?

Goal being reviewed...

[nyc94]

Colgate tied it 2-2.  About 1:30 to go in the third.

Edit: Going to overtime.  Colgate ties record with 16th overtime this year.

Edit: Yale is currently 7 in PWR.  Tie drops them to 8.  A loss drops them to 9.

cool

[nyc94]

And Colgate wins it 3-2

[quote nyc94]And Colgate wins it 3-2[/quote]And if we could have beaten Yale, we'd be in first.:`-(

[Chris 02]

This probably helps Cornell's RPI very incrementally because we played Colgate 3 times.  Hard to say...
