PROVIDENCE, R.I.-Doug Rogers, Sam Bozoian, Alex Biega and Chad Morin registered
multiple-point games to lead the Harvard men's hockey team to a 5-2 win against
Brown Friday night at Meehan Auditorium in the 156th installment in college
hockey's oldest rivalry.

Biega, Rogers and Louis Leblanc scored power-play goals for the Crimson (7-12-3,
6-6-3 ECAC Hockey, 4-3-1 Ivy League), while Rogers and Bozoian also had
even-strength tallies to help Harvard improve to 4-1-1 in its last six league
games. Ryan Carroll made 27 saves to lead a 9-for-10 penalty-killing effort.
Anthony Borelli made 21 saves for Brown (7-13-2, 5-8-2, 2-5-0) in relief of
Mike Clemente, who stopped nine shots. Harvard outshot Brown, 35-29.

Harvard took an early two-goal lead with a four-on-four goal and a power-play
goal barely two minutes apart. Rogers struck first. After Morin passed to
Biega, Rogers grabbed the rebound of Biega's wide shot and banked a bad-angle
backhand off Clemente and in from the left side. Biega notched a goal of his
own with a slap shot from the point through traffic after passes from Chris
Huxley and Alex Killorn. Marshall Everson nearly had a goal as well, but his
deflection past Clemente hit the left post.

The Bears trimmed the margin to one goal after Huxley was whistled for a
hitting-from-behind major. Jeff Buvinow scored on a low shot from the left
faceoff dot.  The Crimson survived the rest of that five-minute power play,
including an 80-second two-man disadvantage, and another penalty to take a 2-1
lead to the first intermission. Harvard held a 9-6 edge first-period shots.

Bozoian gave Harvard a 3-1 lead in the second period. Bozoian tipped in the
first goal of his career off Chad Morin's one-timer of a pass from Rogers.
Brown again cut into the lead with a goal five minutes before the end of the
frame, off the stick of Francis Drolet. Brown outshot Harvard by a 13-11 margin
in the period as the Crimson killed another hitting-from-behind major, by Danny
Biega, that spanned the second intermission.

Leblanc made it 4-2 by banging home the puck from the left side after a pass
from Bozoian, who got the rebound of Killorn's shot from the slot. Harvard
finished the game on a power play after Brown's Aaron Volpatti was issued a
major penalty of his own. Rogers added an empty-netter in the final minute,
breaking up a Bears clear and burying a shot from the blue line. Harvard held a
15-10 shots advantage in the final stanza.
