Harvard outshot Guelph 38-15 on the night, finishing the game 4-for-4 on the penalty kill while scoring two power play goals, and adding a shorthanded tally.

The Crimson scored four goals in the first period, holding the visiting Gryphons without a shot to take control of the contest early on.
 
Senior Austin Wong got things started for Harvard, jamming in a rebound at 5:56 of the first period. Well-placed shots by sophomore Matthew Coronato (11:56) and Farrell (13:07) made it 3-0 Harvard, with Farrell's goal coming on the power play after a major penalty called on visiting Guelph midway through the frame.
