Peter Starrett to the Cantabs?

This has yet to be confirmed by the usual reputable sources - USHR, Heisenberg, etc - but in a Cathlolic Memorial game write-up, the following paragraph implies Starrett will be donning Crimson next year:

"The Eagles plight didn't get much better at the start of the third as Peter Starrett, who will ply his trade at Harvard next season, gave CM a 4-2 lead just 21 seconds into the third with another quick shot from the blue line."

Minnesota Pipeline to Harvard continues....

Luke Grenier, a speedy forward from heralded Shattuck-St. Mary's has committed to Harvard for the Fall of 2009. Listed at 5'9 175 lbs, Luke's final decision came down to Harvard and St. Cloud State. He will play next year in the USHL at Sioux Falls before matriculating at Harvard.

Through 44 games, Luke has a line of 23-36-59, which is good for 4th on the team behind David Toews (North Dakota in 2008), Derek Stepan (Wisconsin in 2009) and Jordan Murray (Wisconsin in 2008).

Make no mistake about it, this is a huge win for Harvard. Welcome aboard Luke!!

Daniel Moriarty Commits to Harvard

Daniel currently leads the Alberni Bulldogs out of the BCHL in goals with 23, assists with 27, and points with 50 in 46 games so far this season, or good for 1.1 pts per game. "Daniel has been a leader for us, both on and off the ice this season as our team's captain. He has been a great role model for our younger players and an example of what hard work and perseverance will allow players to accomplish," according to his coach.

It was reported that Daniel raised his SAT scores over 300 points since joining the Bulldogs....a testament to his character and work-ethic no doubt. He is an '87 birthdate.

He's a right shot and is listed at 5'9'' and 180lbs. Prior to the BCHL, Daniel played for Melville in the SJHL. He also looks like he plays with an edge as he took 130 PMs in 58 games last year.

Welcome to Harvard!!

Derrick Pallis to Princeton?

While I have not seen an article that explicity makes this determination, I have seen several references, most recently in USHR, that Pallis is heading to New Jersey.

Taking Stock of Recruits

Well, with the new year only a few days away and the Harvard team playing very anemic as of late, I thought it would be healthy to take stock of the incoming recruits and how they have performed year to date.
