Goalie Michael Clemente ’12 held No. 6 Yale, the top-scoring team in the ECAC Hockey, to just two goals for the first time since January on Friday night in the men’s hockey team’s three-game playoff series.  And after a rough Saturday night, he bounced back and shut out the Bulldogs on Sunday, preserving Brown’s 1-0 lead until the final buzzer sounded, sending the Bears into the ECAC semifinals.

Clemente and the rest of the Bears will take on No. 9 Cornell in the ECAC semifinals at 4 p.m. Friday night.  For his shut-out performance which kept the team’s season alive, The Herald has named Clemente Athlete of the Week.
