Big Red Host Yale, Brown
The following article appeared in the November 19 issue of the Cornell Daily Sun.
After an action-packed home weekend that saw Cornell dominate Quinnipiac and fall just short against Princeton, the men’s ice hockey team will again host at Lynah this weekend, welcoming Yale and Brown for a pair of Ivy League games. Things kick off tonight at 7 p.m. with the Red taking the ice against the Bulldogs, and will continue tomorrow night at 7 p.m. when the Bears make the trip to East Hill.
Cornell (2-4-0, 2-2-0 ECAC) is coming off a weekend of mixed results and will be facing a No. 5 Yale (5-1-0, 2-0 ECAC) team that is in much the same position after its road trip to Colorado last weekend saw the team destroy Colorado College 5-1, before falling to Air Force by a score of 4-3. Brown (1-2-1, 0-1-1 ECAC) is still winless in conference play and will be looking to get its first ECAC victory against the young Cornell squad if it cannot beat fellow cellar-dweller Colgate tonight.
It will be an uphill battle for the Red when it hits the ice in a few hours. The Bulldogs have completely and utterly dismantled all of their competition this year –– the noted exception being the Air Force squad –– already notching a total of 33 goals in only six matches.
