Like Army, the Tigers are strongest at defense and goaltending. Burly 6'2", 195 lb. Tri-Captains Andy Cesarski and Sean Gorman anchor the Princeton blueline. Gorman delivers bone-crunching forechecks, and Cesarski handles the puck smoothly.

Goaltenders Mark Salzbury (4.02 goals-against-average, .875 save percentage) and Ron High (5.01, .846) have played well in net for the Tigers.

Rested and Ready

Crimson defenders Kevin Sneddon and Derek Maguire return from shoulder and knee injuries, respectively, and sophomore forward Ted Drury comes back from a concussion sustained in the Brown game.

Health is not the only advantage the Crimson possesses. Incentive is very high for the Harvard squad, since only the top four teams enjoy a home-ice advantage for the first ECAC playoff game. Sitting in a tie for sixth presently, the Crimson will need to win most, if not all, of its remaining eight league games, starting tonight.

The one real question for the team is: Who will man the net? While the Crimson has three fine goaltenders, even they were unable to stop the four-game January slide. At press time, Harvard Coach Ronn Tomassoni had not announced which netminder would play tonight.

Allain Roy, Chuckie Hughes and Mike Francis are certainly all prepared, and Tomassoni's choice, for tomorrow as well as tonight, should not figure largely in the outcome of this weekend's games.
