Though his Harvard career is just beginning, sophomore Michael
Biega’s credentials as an offensive threat ensure that this
rising star will create scoring chances for the Crimson whenever he
touches the puck.
After losing six senior forwards to graduation, including go-to
scorers like last year’s co-captain Mike Taylor ’08,
Biega’s offensive success last year—as a rookie, he
notched nine goals and seven assists—has raised expectations
that his play will help form the cornerstone of the Crimson’s
attack. It’s only natural for the player who received the
Percy Award for Harvard’s top rookie, along with
now-sophomore Matt McCollem.
“We graduated almost six forwards, which is almost half the
forwards on a given night,” says Harvard coach Ted Donato
’91. “So I think there’s a level of uncertainty
as to exactly what we have, but we return some key contributors to
us offensively.”
