Despite the Crimson's recent success, Northern Michigan will be the team to beat in the tournament. Roger Trudeau leads the Wildcats with 13 goals and 9 assists, but has help from teammates Chris Gobert (10, 6) and Tyson Holly (3, 13).

The Crimson will return to Bright on Jan. 8 to take on Princeton (4-6-3, 3-2-3 ECAC), who is currently tied for fourth with St. Lawrence in the conference.

The Harvard women's basketball team was out-rebounded and simply out-played this weekend in a 61-42 loss against Northeastern this weekend.

Before last Saturday's loss, the Crimson (6-4) had won three straight, including an impressive 74-71 victory over La Salle in the consolation game of the ECAC Holiday Festival, and a convincing 24-point win over Rhode Island.

The Crimson (6-4) was outrebounded on the offensive end 20-9, and Northeastern star Tesha Tinsley netted 18 points to lead the Wildcats (5-5), 16 in the second half. Harvard, on the other hand, managed just 7-of-28 shooting in the second frame.

If the Crimson is going to have any fun over the break, it better regain its focus and put on the game face for its Dec. 29 game at New Hampshire.

UNH (4-4, 1-1America East) faced off against Northeastern earlier this month and prevailed, 70-42. The Wildcat defense held Tinsley to two points on 0-for-11 shooting.
