After its tournament dreams came tumbling down in shocking fashion
last March, the Harvard men’s hockey team has high hopes of
improving upon the disappointing up-and-down 2008-09 season and
making it back to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since
2006.
Last year, the team started off strong at 4-2-0, but hit a massive
mid-year skid, going 1-12-4 through the middle of the season. The
squad turned it around late in the year, finishing the regular
season 4-0-2, but was stunned in the first round of the ECAC
tournament by conference bottom-dweller Brown, which won two
consecutive games at Bright Hockey Center to end Harvard’s
season.
It was a strange finish for a team that had made it to the ECAC
championship round six times in the last seven seasons, winning
three of them.
