This game is reminding me more and more of the Dartmouth game.  Deliberate play by Brown.  Turnovers and minimal possession time for Cornell.  Looking like a similar outcome, too, unfortunately.

Hurley invisible so far.

H 6, P 4 at the half; D over Penn 8-5

Worst quarter I've seen Cornell play in a long time (I didn't see the Dartmouth game).

10-6 Brown on the EMO.  Fiore just not seeing the ball too well it seems.

Quote from: scoop85Worst quarter I've seen Cornell play in a long time (I didn't see the Dartmouth game).
Given the 11 days to prepare and that this is "Boiardi" weekend, this has been really disappointing.  D looks awful, and O keeps giving it away on its few chances.

11-6 -- brutal play, and Brown is taking advantage to their credit.   Not that it would matter, but might look for a goaltending change after the TO.

Seven goal run for Brown...seemingly effortlessly.  Shots 25-16 Brown.

The lack of possessions has really caught up with us this quarter. It seems that on our few offensive possessions, we are rushing the action.

You know it's not your day when Pannell is stopped point blank.

Hopkins's NCAA streak is NOT over, Tom.  If they beat Towson and Loyola they finish 7-7 and could still be selected, given their high RPI and SOS, whether that makes sense or not.  Cornell was a #6-seed with a 6-5 record and finished second to Syracuse in 1988.

Now 8-5 Harvard with 6 minutes to go in the 3rd.

Jeez, another point-blank save on Pannell

While a 5 goal deficit is not automatically insurmountable, hard to see a realistic chance since we've been so ineffective on face offs.

H 10, P 6 less than 4 min to go.

11-9 with about 5:00 min left -- But Cornell missed out on a huge man-up opportunity.

Harvard leading Princeton 10-6 with about 3:44 left in the 4th.
