After shutting out Brown University, 3-0, in the ECAC semifinals on March 19 in Albany, N.Y., Cornell won the ECAC Hockey Championship for the 12th time in school history by blanking Union College the next day in a 3-0 victory.
After suffering a 1-0 loss in the opener of a physical, hard-fought three-game series with Rensselaer, the men’s hockey team stormed back to win the final two games, 4-0 and 4-3. With the series win, Cornell advanced to the semifinals of the ECAC Hockey tournament. Senior Evan Barlow made his last weekend at Lynah Rink a memorable one with four goals in the series. Sophomore forward Riley Nash added one goal and three assists on the weekend.
Correction: This article incorrectly stated that the 2010 ECAC Hockey championships would be held in Atlantic City, N.J. The 2010 tournament championship will be held in Albany, N.Y., as it has been for the past six years, and beginning in 2011, it will move to Atlantic City. The Sun regrets this error.
