When the rivals from Cambridge braved a maelstrom of fish and newspaper to try their luck at Lynah Rink, three Red skaters from Massachusetts picked up the intensity in the second half of the game and helped Cornell to a 6-3 win over Harvard and a four-point weekend in ECAC Hockey play.

Juniors Joe and Mike Devin and sophomore Sean Whitney, all of Scituate, Mass., accounted for eight points, including seven past the halfway point of the game. Cornell’s special teams continued clicking — the Red converted 2-of-3 power play opportunities and killed off all five of Harvard’s man-advantage chances.
