Summary
On April 13, 2013, two teams separated by less than eight miles in southern Connecticut played before a packed house in Pittsburgh and a national TV audience for college hockey's national championship. Quinnipiac and Yale, different in so many ways, had one thing in common other than geography: both proved doubters wrong, topping traditional heavyweights on their way to the title game. The game's result was perhaps as surprising as the season itself: Yale, a heavy underdog and one of the last teams to get into the NCAA tournament, routed top-seeded Quinnipiac 4-0. This book tells the story of how skill, hard work and smart planning brought the two teams to that night in Pittsburgh. -- Publisher description.
