The Harvard hockey team earned 21 wins and an NCAA tournament berth. In "SEES AND DESIST: Harvard's 'Chosen' Athletes Thrive" Rebecca A. Seesel profiles the three Jews that helped them make it there:
From Hobey Baker finalist Dov Grumet-Morris in goal to
explosive defenseman Dylan Reese on the blueline to the skilled and
crafty Andrew Lederman on the attack, this season’s Crimson was teeming
with Jews.
According to John Halligan, historian of the National Hockey League
(NHL), few Chosen Skaters have graced the ice in the 88-year history of
the league. Perhaps there are a few more on the way.
