After a two-game hiatus from ECAC Hockey action, Brown will face Harvard in a League game this evening, the Bears’ final road contest of the semester. The game also marks the start of a tough stretch where Brown will play 4 games in a span of 8 days to close out the 2009 calendar year.

Last Time Out: Brown stormed out to a 5-0 first-period lead and never looked back en route to an 8-1 win over UConn on Saturday night. Junior Jesse Fratkin led six different goal scorers with his first career hat trick, while freshmen Francis Drolet and Marc Senecal each scored their first career goals. Senior Sean McMonagle, sophomore Jack Maclellan, and freshman Chris Zaires also scored in the victory. Brown spread the assisting around as well, led by senior Devin Timberlake with three, his first career multi-assist game. Juniors Jeremy Russell and Sean Connauton, and Zaires all added two assists, while senior Jordan Pietrus, juniors Harry Zolnierczyk and Tyler Fernandez, sophomore Bobby Farnham, freshman Richie Crowley, and Maclellan all added one assist. For Connauton, Fernandez, and Crowley it was their first career points, while Farnham picked up his first point of the season. Sophomore Mike Clemente picked up his first win of the season with 24 saves, including 12 in the first period.

Coming Up: Brown will close out the semester with three home games in five days. The Bears host Princeton and #4 Quinnipiac on Friday and Saturday night, before hosting AIC in a non-league tilt on Tuesday, Decemebr 8.
