Both were conference players of the year as sophomores, but never quite received the same attention thereafter. Harbec&#8217;s brilliant second period goal looked like it might stand for the win, but it was the Durham native Wright-Ward who netted the clincher in the end.<\/p>\n<p>UNH showed some hubris in playing too much offense on the Saints&#8217; power play that led to the 2-1 Saints lead. The Wildcats hadn&#8217;t had to face a top five national power play since their win over Harvard in December.<\/p>\n<p>Credit to UNH though for playing from behind for the first time since December and overcoming some clearly frustrating moments leading up to the game-tying goal by Jenn Wakefield from Kacey Bellamy.<\/p>\n<p>Credit to the 1607 fans that supported this quarterfinal, a bit better than last year&#8217;s sparse crowd of 1215 for the same matchup.<\/p>\n<p>And credit to the St. Lawrence seniors Harbec, forward Chelsea Grills, defenseman Annie Guay, and goalie Meaghan Guckian, who each had distinguished award-winning careers. Tough luck for them to end with back-to-back overtime defeats &#8212; the first time that has happened since UMD in 2005 (excluding the WCHA consolation game that season). UNH&#8217;s win ended a brilliant four-year Frozen Four run by St. Lawrence. The Saints deserve plenty of credit for that achievement, and for coming so close in year five.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congrats to New Hampshire, the first team into the Women&#8217;s Frozen Four with a 3-2 overtime win over St. Lawrence.
