Cornell Big Red Women's hockey 2009-2010

Sending CCT or UNH to Harvard is cost-wise virtually equal. Or should I say, sending one of the 2 out west and keeping 1 east is virtually equal. However, giving an advantage to an underperforming UNH team that Clarkson has beaten would be a significant change in an 8 team tournament.

Well, I'm sure there will be some discussion. I can't predict exactly what the committee's priorities will be.

I think if Clarkson had the head-to-head edge and led in all other categories (and RPI convincingly), the committee wouldn't swap them. But fact is they trail in record vs. TUC, and their RPIs will be pretty much a dead heat.

Actually, I think Clarkson's RPI will fall below UNH's if Cornell wins. Either that, or Clarkson will be barely ahead. Not sure. It's really close.

Cornell getting the better of play early in the third period. For the first time, the game isn't being played in the Cornell zone. Things not looking good for the Golden Knights.

5:38 to go, Clarkson gets a pp. Need to stop them here.
 
Re: Cornell Big Red Women's hockey 2009-2010

I was just about to say great effort by the Big Red women on this PP but then a goal. They were down blocking shots and giving their all. Now it's anyone's game.

Argh, we had the clear there but it flipped over Cathy's stick. :mad:
 
Re: Cornell Big Red Women's hockey 2009-2010

Either way, great comeback by Clarkson. Hopefully Cornell can get that one rush.
 
Re: Cornell Big Red Women's hockey 2009-2010

White-Karpenko-Rougeau with some nice chances late, after Fortino shot high. Free hockey!
 
Re: Cornell Big Red Women's hockey 2009-2010

This is the first time Cornell has given up 2 PP goals in a weekend, let alone a single game, all season. Clarkson's PP looked very good.

Someone call the NCAA, they might have to push back the selection show. :D

They could release 2 provisional brackets. :p

I have to admit, Clarkson looks like the prohibitive favorite in overtime. They have been in complete control since we went up 3-0. Shots since then must be about 30-5.

I agree, but I thought Cornell had a strong last minute of the third. Hopefully, Cornell will get it done.

I remember once for basketball, a western conference started their championship game later than the deadline the NCAA set so they could get their game on TV. The game wasn't complete at selection time, so the NCAA just gave the winner their autobid, rather than waiting to see who won (the favorite would normally have been an at large team even had they lost.)

Obviously not as big a deal here because there is no television slot holding on the selection show, but the delay does mess with the logistics.

It's going to be White's line and then hold your breath for 2 minutes.

Is UConn watching this game now? I can't imagine what they must be going through.
