ASU Hockey: No. 17 Harvard takes down No. 16 Arizona State in game one of SoCal Clash

Despite outshooting No. 17 Harvard (7-4-0) by a 44-30 margin, No. 16 Arizona State (10-7-2) couldn’t take advantage of its opportunities in game one of the SoCal Clash in Irvine on Saturday night.

Led by a big second period and stellar goaltending from freshman goaltender Mitchell Gibson, the Crimson took down the Sun Devils 4-1 in front of a capacity crowd at FivePoint Arena.

“We didn’t have much puck luck and the kid (Gibson) played well,” said ASU head coach Greg Powers. “They are going to get their chances. They are a good team and we have to be a little bit stronger in front of our net, but we had a couple of turnovers on the wall and they were opportunistic.
