I don't believe the teams had a choice of when they wanted to play (this
refers to Vermont).  In past years it has been the late game in which the
2 teams which were closest to Placid had the late game so they could draw
a larger attendance by letting the locals in those areas get up to see
the games involving the teams.  In this case Clarkson(Potsdam) and Cornell
(Ithaca) were closer to Placid than Vermont(Burlington) and Harvard (Cambridge)
therefore the Clarkson-Cornell game is at 5.
 
Last year was a little different, I don't know why with Colgate-RPI being
the early game, and Princeton-Clarkson being the late game.  But the year
before it was Clarkson-RPI the late game and Harvard-Brown the early game.
