Cornell Hockey Video Dump

How do Cornell hockey fans amuse themselves during the off-season? Apparently, by uploading videos to YouTube of Cornell beating Harvard. The collection of quality Cornell hockey videos on the internet has roughly doubled in the past week.

First, we have footage from one of the greatest games I have seen live, the 2003 ECAC final against Harvard.

As with some of our come-from-behind victories this season, Cornell was down, 2-1. After Harvard narrowly missed an empty-net goal, Mark McRae scores with 33 seconds remaining to tie the game at 2-2.

Then, in overtime, a goal that has remained vividly in my memory for the last six years:



Also, as a bit of a throwback, we have two goals from Cornell's victory over Harvard in the 1996 ECAC final. This was Coach Mike Schafer's first season back at Cornell, and one of his goals was to beat Harvard. Note that the games were played in Lake Placid, not Albany.

Matt Cooney ties the game at 1-1

Mike Sancimino scores the game-winning goal


Happy watching.
