Brown defeats Dartmouth 4-2 to improve their record to 3-0. Yann Danis stacked up 35 saves tonight before a crowd of just over 1800 at the Meehan. Danis is first nationally in save percentage with .979 and tied for 1st nationally with Cornell's Dave LeNeveu with a perfect 1.0 winning percentage. Brown had goals from Saunders, Haggett, Denis and Esdale. While last night's 5-0 defeat of Vermont featured a solid defensive performance tonight's win was despite not as solid a defensive performance as we saw in the last two games. Tonight's win underscores the importance of offensive production for the Bears, as scoring 3 or more goals in a game with Danis in the net is a formula for victory. A highly impressive start of the season for the Bears who travel up to New York to Clarkson and St. Lawrence next weekend.
