“We didn't want to go in[to the break] with that sour taste in our mouth, because [of] last night. I thought we responded and showed the character we needed to show.”
“One of the things our team is learning is that there’s such a small room for margin of error."
Women’s hockey outshot Quinnipiac 34-18, had three power-play chances to the Bobcats one, and dominated play throughout the second half of the game. But faced with a red-hot goaltender, Cornell could not find a way to put the puck in the back of the net.
“We haven't looked young a lot this year. We looked young tonight.”
“Two of the best teams in the country coming into town this weekend, it will be a real test to see where we’re at right now,” Derraugh said.
“Tough buildings to play in, but you kind of want to get in those environments. It's a little bit more fun."
The men's and women's track events will no longer be open to unattached athletes to compete in, sparking controversy.

The weekend marked a new way for the Red to be inconsistent, but also demonstrated the team’s resilience. After five straight games away from Lynah Rink, the pieces are there for a return to the strong early season form for Cornell.
“It’s exciting. Obviously this is one of the reasons why you come to Cornell. To play in games like this.”
“We could have settled that down. We could have just settled it down, and got over, not rushed. We seemed rushed at the time. We had plenty of time to take advantage of that."
The Red dropped the game by a 2-1 score, its second consecutive loss to the Terriers.
“You look through all the years, it's the legacy, right? You come to these programs for the tradition.”
“Get[ting] that opportunity in front of our fans and in front of our alums … it's a good rivalry here, and [an] important game for us, important game for them.”
No. 17 Men’s hockey will face No. 19 Boston University in the biennial Red Hot Hockey matchup at 8:00 p.m. on Saturday.
On Nov. 1, women’s hockey notched its seventh victory to set a program record season-opening winning streak. Since then, not much has gone right for Cornell.
