End Q3: Cornell 7, Syracuse 5

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. – A little fun with time of possession here.

Syracuse had the ball for 4:28 of the third quarter. Unsurprisingly, the Orange only managed a goal and didn’t put a dent in Cornell’s two-goal lead.

So it’s 7-5 entering the final 15 minutes. And the fact is, if Cornell plays keepaway like that the rest of the way, it will be hauling off a national title trophy for the first time since 1977.
