A weekend sweep of Harvard and Dartmouth would give the Red a share of the Ivy League crown, and a sweep coupled with a Yale loss to Princeton would give Cornell its 17th title outright.
“We’re just playing a team game now, and everyone’s contributing,” Bergmann said. ”It’s a lot of fun to play with and a lot of fun to watch.”
The Red came ready to play in the Class of 1965 Arena, searching for its first win in Hamilton since 2020.
“Being an athlete at Cornell has been wonderful because the work here is challenging and forces you to buckle down and work hard [while] also having our sports to play. Being together is so incredible, so it’s an experience that has been important to each of us.”
“[There] should be some real fun games this weekend,” Derraugh said.
After the 4.5-point weekend, the Red sits tied atop the ECAC standings with No. 5 Colgate
The low point of the season thus far for women’s hockey came in its home opener, a 3-2 loss to Union, the first defeat at the hands of the Garnet Charges since 2004 and just the second in program history.
Since then, the Red has been unstoppable.
“I think it was a big character win tonight, and it will definitely bring us even closer together as a group which is huge,” Adam said.
“We played really well. We are coming together really well, so everyone is in good spirits,” said senior defender Ashley Messier.
“There was so much energy throughout the building, you can see all of our fans come out and support us,” said sophomore goaltender Annelies Bergmann. “We love their support, and it was just super fun out there.”
