"Even at 20-12, who knows what can happen."

You gotta like an announcer with this much optimism. Adam Pascal is the color guy's name, a high school coach. He's entertaining.

Great win. Nice toughness after Harvard got it within one.

Loved the coverage -- great camera work, good announcers, and drone shots!

Former head coach at Holy Cross. Very entertaining and knowledgeable. It got awkward when asked about positives he saw from Harvard and wound up gushing more about Cornell's game.

The aerial replays were outstanding. Great broadcast to watch once they got it on.

Are you sure his name isn't Don Quijote de la Mancha?

Jesus Kirst, superstar, how many goals have you scored so far!

By loses Kirst, do you mean stops Kirst? I am genuinely asking, I did not understand what you meant.

He means the Dman ostensibly guarding Kirst lets his attention wander away from Kirst. Harvard #46 does it on CJ's record-tying goal:

Knust had a great second half, 8 saves and only 4 goals against.

Good start and finish by Cornell, matching ends 5-1 scoring for Cornell in the first and fourth. Nice job building up the early lead knowing CJ Kirst would kick in the afterburners.

He looked more open live. On this replay, Jesus Kirst slid behind the defender for just a half second. Great pass and great finish.

Fun game, good crowd. We sat with CJ Kirst's family, which was a great experience. The Harvard athletic complex is a disorganized mess, however.

Hoping the Cornell students (and pep band!!) show up to see Kirst make history next week!

36 minutes of highlights, including the first 5 Cornell goals that ESPN+ did not show live:

Excellent broadcast yesterday. For many reasons, including the quality, camera angles, and announcers. The stream starting 30 minutes late is inexcusable but that's ESPN's fault I assume, not the fault of the local production crew.
