But on Feb. 25, Harvard strolled into Hobey Baker Rink and stunned Princeton, 4-1. The next night, it dispatched the Elis, 5-2, at the Whale.
The second freshman lightweights placed third behind Yale and Rutgers. The Crimson's time of 6:30.62 was well behind the Elis' 6:23.42 and the Scarlet Knights' 6:25.8.
