Three Harvard recruits, though. That's different.

It's nice to know 3 student athletes, at least, are able to play lacrosse and handle the rigors of maintaining eligibility at Harvard. Kudos to them.Josh '99

I didn't want to start a whole new thread, but here are some links regarding Cornell recruits:
1. Interview with Dan Lintner is a middie at the Hill Academy, the same school that Jason Noble attended. Lintner is a captain at the school that's generally considered the #1 lacrosse school in Canada. (See the article on Canadians at US colleges.) He was headlined as one of the "highlights" on Ontario's entry in the Brogden Cup and finished third on the team in scoring.
2. Sten Jernudd has a great blog about being recruited (besides Cornell, he visited Penn, Drexel, Army, and Duke). He also plays for Team Sweden (I guess being named "Sten" makes you eligible). A Merit semi-finalist, he's 6'5" and plays basketball too.
3. One that apparently got away. This article on Jernudd says:
4. But the one I like the best is the quote from Ross Rudow's coach:

Apparently he backed out and committed to Georgetown, although his academics may have played a part.Walax
Christian Kennedy from Cold Spring Harbor in Long Island, NY, regarded as the best middy recruit on Long Island and some say, in the country this year, also committed to Cornell which puts Sten in pretty good company.
4. But the one I like the best is the quote from Ross Rudow's coach:
Peter Worstell
“I wouldn’t have backed him [Rudow] up and supported him if I didn’t think he had it,” Worstell said. “If a coach like Jeff Tambroni is interested in you, you have strong character and talent. Cornell players, they’re a bunch of leaders.”

That's a name that would make you eligible for Asgard, not just Team Sweden. Sten = stone; Jernudd = headland of iron.Swampy
Sten Jernudd...plays for Team Sweden (I guess being named "Sten" makes you eligible).
Some pretty solid players among the 2011 freshmen. A few Cornell lacrosse legacies (Entenmann, Lintner) and children of coaches (Hogan), as usual. Also the usual Cornell trademark blend of recruits that are either too small or too off-the-beaten-path to merit fawning in Inside Lacrosse and the like. Glad to see some faceoff specialists too (McCormack, Tesoriero). Rudow, the middie from California, might emerge to be the gem of the class.

Hillel, nice to see you back!

If there's a suggestion that someone is going to Georgetown not Cornell because of the difficulty getting in ... try getting a non-athlete into Georgetown these days in any major, but especially if you're looking at something like international relations.

I know, but the renege and this page suggested to me that academics may have played a role. So far as I know, the Big East does allow special standards for athletes. Not to mention athletic scholarships. Whoops, I just did.
(Also, does Georgetown accept people directly into IR right out of high school? They do have a school of foreign service, and it's separate from their equivalent of A&S. So maybe they do. I wonder how many lacrosse players ....)

That would be John Hogan, a middie at St. Mary's (Annapolis, Md.). He's the son of Annapolis fixture Matt Hogan, who's wrapping up a nice run as coach of St. Mary's this year. People might remember him as coach at Pennsylvania for a year, a position he took after a long spell as an assistant at Navy.scoop85

They do. Having spent a summer on Georgetown's campus during my junior year, Georgetown doesn't have anything that Cornell doesn't, save for a preppier student body. Oh, and schools of agriculture, architecture, and engineering. One of my close friends at Cornell was actually a transfer from Georgetown. She liked Cornell much better.

Having been on the faculty of a Jesuit university for four years, I think if you're going to have a religious organization run your school, you could do a lot worse. ("Critical Thinking" was one of Loyola's buzz-phrases.)
