Matt Moulson scored two assists as Cornell knocked out Noah Welch and Ryan Lannon’s Harvard Crimson by a 3-1 decision in Saturday night’s ECACHL championship game. Cornell overcame a fatigued Harvard team who had come off a double-overtime victory the previous evening against Colgate. Meanwhile the Big Red had a slightly easier 3-0 semi-final victory over Vermont.

Moulson assisted on Cornell’s second and third goals, with the backbreaking third goal coming with Lannon in the penalty box, and only moments after Welch himself had completed a two-minute stint for tripping. This performance is merely the icing on the cake of another superb season for Moulson, who has now led Cornell in scoring for two consecutive seasons. After posting 18 goals and 17 assists last season and earning All-Ivy League First Team honors, Moulson has improved this season’s stats to 22 goals and 18 assists after Saturday night. The 21-year-old’s 1.25 points per game click places him 15th in the nation, and his 0.69 goals per game puts him fifth. Moulson is looking more and more like a late-round gem after being taken in the ninth round of the 2003 draft.
