Players To Watch
Alex Harris (Cornell) - Harris was recently named to the Ivy League honor roll list, after a five point performance in the 4-2 victory against Canisius. Alex netted his first collegiate goal, which was followed by another to give him two goals in the game. He would follow up with the first assist of his career, on the third goal that stretched the Big Red's lead to three. Against UMBC, Harris put in the lone Big Red goal on a penalty kick. Harris, a first-year Cornellian, has four multi-goal games on the season, and leads the Ivy League in points (25) and goals with 11.

Balazs Feher (Cornell) - Feher has been on a run. Since scoring the first goal of his Big Red career against Colgate, the Hungarian freshman has been on a four-game point-streak. He now sits second on the squad in points (eight) on three goals and two assists.

Kisa Kiingi (Cornell) - Kiingi was recognized as a part of the College Soccer News Men's National Team of The Week for his performances against New Hampshire and Canisius. He was the culprit of the goal that Cornell needed to top New Hampshire 1-0 on the road, and has solidified a Big Red defense that is anchored in goal by Ryan Friedberg.

The reigning Ivy League Rookie of the Year registered the fifth shutout of his young Big Red career in that game. He was named Ivy League Defender of The Week for those performances. Friedberg has 18 saves on the year with a .667 percentage through nine games.

Isaac Delgado (Cornell) - Delgado is in his first season for the Big Red. He made his first start in goal in a 3-2 victory against UAlbany, where he made two saves, and surrendered two goals. In his second start, against Penn, he registered one save, and gave up one goal during a penalty kick. Delgado also protected the net in Tuesday's matchup with Colgate, saving a shot. The freshman goalie is now 2-1 in starts.

Eric Lagos (Yale) - Leads the team in goals (5), and is tied for the lead in points (10).

Max Rogers (Yale) - Leads the team in assists (6), and is tied for the lead in points (10).
