Well, shoot: I got the start time wrong. It was 11:00, and Duke has gone a long way toward eliminating the possibility of an upset. It's 10-4 at the half. The first midfield is doing the damage: hat tricks for Myles Jones and Christian Walsh.
Last year, the Crimson almost derailed Duke's recovery from the slow start. It took a three-goal rally in the fourth to squeeze out a one-goal win in Cambridge.
This year's edition of the Crimson are equally capable of springing the upset. We will need a solid effort to get the job done.

Myles Jones is a force. So much better than early this year.
Another huge game from the first midfield unit: five for Walsh and four for Jones.
Did not see Dionne at all while I was watching; assume he's injured, but don't know anything specific.
Harvard's Bobby Duvnjak did an outstanding job on Jordan Wolf, holding him to two goals and no assists.
Next up: ND.
Not happy to hear about a possible Dionne injury. But I am very happy with the emergence of Duke's midfield in the last couple of games--really a good sign going forward.
Can some give a Dionne injury update?

Dionne was on the sideline, in uniform, and was animated with his teammates. No idea why he didn't play.
