The Harvard women's hockey team plays its final game of the season tomorrow at 2 p.m., when it from the University of Vermont. The Crimson is 7-2 at house and 4-7-1 on the read.

Fifty-one of the squad's 82 goals on the season have been scored at Bright Center--that's 62 percent of the scoring in 43 percent of the games.

Goalie Tracy Kimmel had 14 saves in Wednesday's 4-1 loss to Dartmouth. The final, empty-net fluke goal did not count against her record, allowing the senior to wrap up her first (and last) Ivy League season with a 2.30 goals-against average.

In comparison, Harvard's All-Ivy goalie Cheryl Tate, who graduated last year, had a 2.74 g.a.a. for the '83-'84 season.

Freshman Julie Sasner needs just one more goal to tie the all-time Harvard single-season mark (23). The only problem is that with only one game left on the schedule, time is running out. However, Sasner notched two goals and two assists in her last outing against the of the Catamounts.

Over the five post-Beanpot games, Tri-Caprain Genie Simmons (four goals and four assists) and Sasner (6-2) lead the squad in scoring.

Freshman Johanna Neilson, who skates on the second line with Simmons, ranks third (1-4), impressive when you consider that in those five games she has equalled her point output of the 16 previous contests.

Other hockey notes--Sophomore forward Pam DiRubio plans to embark on the 4000-mile Ride For Life in June. She should certainly be in shape next fall... Elusive Tracee Whitley refuses to stick with one uniform number. Liked in the program as member 29, she has most recently been spotted wearing numbers 7 and 20 ... In addition to winning Wednesday's game. Dartmouth won the "oddest name" contest hands-down. The Big Green was led by left defenseman 9 Sanders. Her uniform number is 9 also.
