Scouting Harvard University
Harvard enters Tuesday's game with a record of 1-8-2 overall and
1-5-2 in ECAC Hockey play. Harvard has not won a game since Oct. 30
when it defeated Dartmouth, 5-3, in Hanover, N.H. The Crimson are
0-5-1 on their home ice, including four consecutive losses. Harvard
has not played since Dec. 9 when it lost to Boston College, 3-2.
Junior Michael Biega leads Harvard in assists (8) and points (12).
Alex Killorn checks in with five goals and four assists for nine
points. Freshman Conor Morrison leads the Crimson with six goals.
In goal, Kyle Richter has logged 67% of the total ice time in net
for the Crimson, posting a 1-6-1 record with a .890 save percentage
and a 3.89 goals-against average.
All-Time Against Harvard
In 12 meetings against the Crimson since 2005, the Bobcats have
posted a 4-6-2 record all-time. While Quinnipiac has not lost in
five meetings between the two teams on the Bobcats' home ice
(3-0-2), Quinnipiac has won just once in seven games at the Bright
Hockey Center. Quinnipiac's only win in Cambridge came in the
second game of the 2008 ECAC Hockey Quarterfinals in a 7-4 victory
to force a third game.

least 30 goals and 30 assists for their career.
