Cornell-Colgate weekend marked a turning point for the
women’s hockey team way back in December — Yale emerged
from a weekend pair of conference games without a loss for the
first time all season. The Bulldogs (9–13–3,
7–10–1 ECAC) will quest for a similar comeback when
they face the New York squads again, this time at Ingalls Rink, on
Friday and Saturday.
After going 6–1–0 in the seven games between Jan. 15
and Jan. 31, the Elis finally saw their momentum end last weekend
with 6–3 and 4–3 losses to Dartmouth and Harvard,
respectively. Only four games remain in the regular season and Yale
is clinging to eighth place in the league standings — the
final spot that qualifies for the ECAC Hockey playoffs in late
February.
The Bulldogs currently have a one-point lead in the conference
tallies on 10th-place Colgate, which makes Friday night’s
game a crucial meeting for both sides.
