Harvard

Harvard currently ranks ninth in the nation according to the USCHO Weekly Poll, but they’re likely to slip to tenth place or even out of national contention altogether after two losses this past weekend to Colgate and Cornell. In the ECAC, they’re tied with Princeton for second place, with a 9-3-1 conference record and a 10-7-1 record overall.

Leading the team in scoring are sophomores Dominique Petrie and Kristin Della Rovere, with 27 and 21 points, respectively. Petrie, a California native, competed with Team USA at the U18 Women’s World Championships three times between 2017 and 2019, while Canadian Della Rovere competed for Ontario at the international junior level. Della Rovere is currently tied for second in the conference in goals scored, second only to Clarkson scoring fiend Élizabeth Giguère.

Harvard will play St. Lawrence and Clarkson this coming Friday and Saturday at their respective arenas. You can catch the games on NESN+.
