Cornell Women's Hockey: Offseason

Forwards Rebecca Johnston and Brianne Jenner made the team, as did the defensive tandem of Laura Fortino and Lauriane Rougeau. The quartet is quite familiar with the national spotlight, as all four of them were on the national roster for the 4 Nations Cup in November.

@ECACHOCKEYMWD1 don't forget head coach Doug Derraugh is serving as an assistant on Team Canada's bench, too!#worlds #Burlington

Here's a nice piece on Rebecca Johnston, reflecting on her collegiate career and what's next.

Rebecca Johnston
"When I was at Cornell, my first year, we had 10 people in the stands that were probably all parents. Mind you, we weren't that good.

"Now, in my last two years, we would get a couple of thousand fans to every game," she added.

Ten per game might be an exaggeration because a lot of Tompkins girls hockey player who were in the "Cub Club" would be there with their families. But if attendance topped 100 it would be a huge crowd. Remember, the year before Johnston hit campus, the team won 4 games or something woeful like that.

Attendance in the last 2 years has been at least 500 for most games. Especially if followed by a men's game or basketball. And "a couple of thousand" for several games, esp during the playoffs, which Cornell hosted, thanks to the team's success.

I'm going to guess that Anna Zorn is related to Liz Zorn '10. Also good to see that we'll have a full complement of defensemen for next year.

And I'm going to guess that Taylor Woods is related to Tiger Woods. Let's hope she's as good as scoring as he is (using different senses of the word, of course).

Wow. That is just inappropriate. The assumption that the Zorns are related makes sense as siblings attending Cornell is not unheard of (see: Johnston's sibling, the Overgaards, etc).

Relax. It was just a joke. I know they're probably not related.

I cringed when I read it, and I have a pretty high tolerance (appreciation?) of tasteless humor. Plus there wasn't much deep thinking to make the joke. Ugarte's stuff is funny without going over the line. I've always wanted to see a battle of the comics where Eddie Murphy, Richard Pryor, Rodney Dangerfield and Robin Williams are put onstage (hmm, realize I didn't think of any woman comics) and told, "Be funny. Anything you want. Just no cursing or sex jokes or drug humor." I think they all could be funny because they're good. Similarly, I'd like to see Bill Cosby do an R-rated show sometime.

THACA, N.Y. – Six Big Red women's hockey players got great news on Tuesday as Hockey Canada released the roster for its 2012 Under-22 Development Team selection camp in Calgary in early August.

Rising senior Laura Fortino will be joined by rising juniors Brianne Jenner, Hayleigh Cudmore and Jessica Campbell as well as rising sophomores Jillian Saulnier and Emily Fulton.

Fortino and Jenner were both on the roster of Canada's bronze-medal-winning National Team last November at the 4 Nations Cup, and more recently won a gold medal for Canada at the 2012 IIHF World Championship.

Saulnier, Cudmore and Campbell also have experience playing under Canada's flag recently with the bronze medalist squad at the 2012 Meco Cup in Germany in January.

During the selection camp, Cornell's seven players will be part of a group of 40 that is split into two teams. These teams will scrimmage and practice against each other before 22 of them are chosen for a three-game series against the United States' Under-22 team from Aug. 14-19 in Calgary. After play has concluded, Hockey Canada will use what it sees at the camp to help make its selection for the 2013 Meco Cup in Germany.

They're actually going to extend the rink to have four zones that meet in the center of the ice. Battle royale!
