A big upset on Friday with Union taking down Clarkson in regulation 2-1. The quarterfinal field now, for best of three:
  • (Seed 12.) Union at (1.) Yale
  • (8) Harvard at (2) Princeton
  • (7) Brown at (3) Quinnipiac
  • (6) Colgate at (4) Cornell
This should be a good one for the Cornell-Colgate travel partner rivalry. I could see that one going to three games and Cornell winning.

Quinnipiac has had some trouble against Brown this season and the past couple seasons, with some losses and a tie; yet I would predict Quinnipiac to be in good playoff form. So, tough to tell who prevails there, but I'd predict the higher seed.

Other thoughts or predictions?
 
The women deserve tournament respect, but I think the turnout in LP will be woeful, save some Cornell fans. It's also not as accessible. I do like the fairness of the highest seed not getting a home bias.

I'm hoping that Harvard can push Princeton to three games. I expect today's game will be just as close - wish Harvard had more skill up front.
 
Congrats to the Big Red! Glad this season is over for the Raiders, who are heading in the wrong direction with Decosse and no improvement in sight. Hope Harvard and Brown can pull off some miracle upsets! Yale had a cakewalk.
 
Harvard ran out of gas today and got smoked. Tuffy finally cracked - it wasn't her fault. Making 80 saves over two consecutive games will do that to you. She's Harvard's best player and at least for the next two years, she will backbone the Crimson. Time for Bellamy to start recruiting players who can skate, stickhandle and score goals. And learning how to defend wouldn't hurt either.
 
And then there were four:
No. 1 Yale vs. No. 4 Cornell
No. 2 Princeton vs. No. 3 Quinnipiac

On paper, Q seems the stingiest, but Brown put holes in that theory. Cornell G can be tough to beat, but I don’t see the Big Red advancing. I’m tired of hearing about Issy Wunder and hope she doesn’t stay a fifth year lol.
