The incident did in fact happen at Cornell in the mid 70's, although I
believe the victim was male.  Cornell PA announcer, statistician, team
historian, etc. Arthur Mintz once sent me the specifics on this; I can
dig them out if anyone's interested.

Cornell has glass-to-almost-ceiling nets at both ends of the rink,
although only one end has seating in it.
