HUPD Chief Says Harvard Yard Encampment is Peaceful, Defends Students’ Right to Protest
The Harvard hockey players, and especially Coach Bill Cleary, plead with the fans at Bright Center not to throw anything on the ice during tomorrow night's game against Boston College.
"We would like to discourage the fans from throwing anything on the ice," Cleary said yesterday. "Throwing things on the ice could cost us the game. First, we can get a penalty. Second, it can stop our momentum. Third, it could cause an injury. I want the fans to be loud and supportive--and they've been great--but I also hope they'll refrain from throwing anything. It's just too important a game."
Against Dartmouth, after an initial warning for the first barrage of garbage that emerged from the stands, the fans threw more trash on the ice and Harvard received a penalty. That 'meant that the icemen, up 2-1, were shorthanded for two minutes. Had Dartmouth scored a goal at that point. Harvard might not be in the playoffs. Late in the third period, the fans caused another delay-of-game penalty, and Dartmouth scored shortly afterward.
In other words, for the B.C. game, leave the tennis balls back in your room.
