against brown capitalize couple game goals hard harvard last period putting reward second third time work
I think the third period was our reward. We went through a time there, with the second game against BC, the game against Brown and last week's game against Harvard where we were putting in the hard work with no reward. The third was our reward and we were able to capitalize and put a couple goals in.

Overall I think we played extremely hard. We had plenty of offensive opportunities. I think Northeastern, while they played a solid game, they had some good fortune.

They have to motivate themselves. I will remain very positive about their commitment to the team. I am not going to single anyone out.

Games are decided on special teams. Ultimately, we lost this battle against BC, and we want to improve that against Maine.
