I was at the game and the munchkins did not play good defense and they were
"snitty" as the kid said.  They have played defense in the past three years
but not against Cornell this last weekend.
 
Were they tired late in the game?  That is a hard one but they certainly
did not show any speed advantage over Cornell coming up ice and they
certainly were not wasting all their energy backchecking like crazy.
