Correct. A loss that weekend would have meant the end of SLU's season. By
beating Cornell and Colgate, SLU made the ECAC tourney as team #10. They played
#1 ranked Yale in "first to three points" series. It took three games for a team
to get a win (Yale).
By the way John Poapst scored the exciting last second goal.
Thanks for the memories.
