Even more notes on last weekend's ECAC games:
RPI 4, Brown 2
Joe Juneau's assist on Derek DeCosty's power-play goal in the second
period was the 200th point of his career. In addition, the melee at
the end enabled the two teams to break the record for penalty minutes
set only last week at the RPI-St. Lawrence game. The Engineers and the
Bears combined for 204 minutes in penalties. John Malinosky was the
ref for both of these games. Has somebody forgotten to tell this guy
about game disqualifications? What's this misconduct and double- or
triple-minor stuff?
Harvard 12, Army 2
Harvard 7, Princeton 0
Crimson head coach Ronn Tomassoni finally broke up his top line of
Peter Ciavaglia, Ted Donato, and Mike Vukonich, who are the top three
ECAC scorers. Vukonich had a hat trick against Army, and he and Ted
Drury each had seven points on the weekend. Harvard's Michael Francis
had 27 saves against Army, and the following night, Allain Roy recorded
the shutout, stopping 30 shots.
ECAC Player of the Week:
Andy Pritchard, St. Lawrence -- five goals and one assist against
Colgate.
ECAC Rookie of the Week:
Geoff Finch, Brown -- 20 saves against Vermont, 22 against RPI.
Bill Fenwick
Cornell '86
