...think that collectively as a team if we can work hard together with the same common goal in mind, that’s when we are going to have success.”Following a faceoff, the Eagles recovered the puck and Andrew Orpik struck for his second goal of the night at 16:19 in the third, sealing the 5-1 victory for BC.This scoring streak served as a marked contrast to the first period, when the Eagles’ strong offense put pressure on the usually stellar Harvard defense but failed to score. BC unleashed 15 first-frame...
Soon after terrorists struck Mumbai on Wednesday, Israeil Defense Minister Ehud Barak offered to send help to India. "The attacks are part of a global wave of terror, which Israel is quite familiar with," Barak said. But India declined the assistance. Some Israeli officials voiced criticism over the way that Indian forces immediately began firing at the gunmen, rather than gathering intelligence on their adversary, or attempting to enter into negotiations with them first.

But it would be the Crimson that struck first in the frame, after Brine recovered her own shot to sneak it in. The second half of the game was marked by multiple Crimson shot attempts and dominant goaltending by Cornell junior goaltender Jenny Niesluchowski. Harvard was able to convert on its attempts with a spectacular power-play goal...
...such as offensive zone penalties, a lot of bad decisions,” Donato said. “Against good teams, the margin doesn’t need to be that big to make it stick up, and that’s what Cornell did.” Harvard struck first just 5:41 after the opening faceoff thanks to the stick of sophomore Michael Biega, who fought for a loose puck behind the Cornell net and then stuffed in a wrap-around on the right post. The play developed thanks to the physicality of sophomore Matt McCollem, who knocked...
