Before this series, the Ivy foes, whose academic and athletic rivalry goes back hundreds of years, never faced off against each other in the ECAC Quarterfinals. Twice the Crimson has gone toe-to-toe with the Elis in the consolation games in the league tournament, and twice Harvard has set...
The Crimson added another pair of wins last weekend, knocking off the Elis, 5-4 and 7-4, to secure a coveted spot at Lake Placid. The victories boost Yale's record at Bright to 1-20-3 and send the Elis packing back to New Haven.
His ultimate low, though, may have come against Yale at home when the Elis pulled off a 85-83 overtime victory. Scoring and rebounding well below his average, Clemente fouled out of the game having made little impact.
Harvard will now host Yale next weekend in the best-of-three first round series of the ECAC Playoffs. The Elis are 1-18-3 alltime at Bright. Harvard and Yale have never squared off in the first round.
The Elis didn't quit, however, and made for an exciting finish when winger Evan Wax retrieved a rebound in front of the net and rifled it under Jonas, who never saw the shot because of the traffic in front of him at 10:58.
