Sometimes, in sports, it seems that one team will always have another team’s number.

For example, coming into Saturday night’s matchup, the Harvard men’s hockey team was 29-5-3 all-time against No. 16 Union, including a 4-1 win in Schenectady on Jan. 22. That’s why it was not an enormous surprise that the inconsistent Crimson was able to pull out a victory at the Bright Hockey Center Saturday night, despite the Dutchmen’s position atop the ECAC hockey standings and their national ranking.

The key now will be building on the win. Harvard only has one winning streak the entire season, which came in mid-January. Since that streak, the Crimson has only come away with two wins in the past eight games.
