The Big Green Fall to Harvard in Opening Game
10/22/2021 8:38:00 PM | Women's Ice Hockey
HANOVER, N.H. — Dartmouth was defeated by Harvard by a score of 4-1, Friday night. It was the team's first action since the 2019-20 season and first game under head coach Liz Keady Norton.
Freshman goalie Maggie Emerson made 37 saves on 41 shots in the loss and the lone goal was scored by sophomore forward Tiffany Hill.
The Big Green struck first. Hill fired the puck past the Harvard (1-0-0, 1-0-0) goalkeeper to give Dartmouth (0-1-0, 0-1-0) a 1-0 lead with five minutes to play in the first period. Senior forward Gabby Billing picked up an assist on the play. The Big Green held their lead through the end of the period and had a one-goal advantage at the first intermission.
Dartmouth saw their lead shrink in the second period. The team was slowed down by four penalties and spent a total of 11 minutes in the box. Harvard tied the game with a powerplay goal midway through the period and then added another three minutes later and had a 2-1 lead headed into the final period of play.
The Big Green went on the powerplay early in the third but gave up a shorthanded goal to fall behind by two with 16 minutes to play. Dartmouth battled but could not cut into the Harvard lead. The Crimson added one more powerplay goal at the end of the period to make the game 4-1.
Emerson was the star of the show in her first career start. Despite letting in four goals, she made 37 saves and kept the Big Green competitive throughout. She made several big saves including one in the second period when she sprawled across the face of the net to keep the puck out.
The Big Green return to action next weekend. They face ECAC opponent Colgate at 3 p.m. on ESPN+.
