mike1960 upprdeck Other than the hat there is nothing in that list that I would ever buy and actually wear in public Those are very busy pieces of clothing. At the pre-game tailgate, I saw some guys with red hats that said something about Cornell National Lax Champs '76(?), and on the side it had the Cornell score above the Maryland (?) score. I would LOVE to have a hat like that for this chaby Chris H82 - Other Sports

Jeff Hopkins '82 I bought one of the t-shirts from the Campus Store. As well as "National Champions", etc., it says "Cornell" in roughly 1-1/2" letters, "Big Red" in 3/4" letters, along with the huge block "C". It arrived last week. I'm wearing it as we speak/write. However, I just went on the webpage and it's no longer offered. Keep cheby Chris H82 - Other Sports
Re: CORNELL WINS 2025 MENS LACROSSE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP! - 5 weeks ago
RichH mike1960 I’ve been listening to podcasts about championship weekend, and almost universally, commentators have been happy for the Cornell win. Part of the reason is the length of time between championships. Another is the culture and tradition of the program. Also, players they’ve interviewed have given thoughtful and respectful answers to questions. It’s been very satisfying to hear how thby Chris H82 - Other Sports

The other thing we noted was that Coach Buczek made really good use of his timeout calls a couple of times, when we had barely gotten the ball into the offensive side of the field but our player was at risk of losing the ball.by Chris H82 - Other Sports
Re: CORNELL WINS 2025 MENS LACROSSE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP! - 6 weeks ago
For those who weren't there, I've put some photos from the tailgate party and the post-game celebration on a photo-sharing website: At the tailgate, evidently there is a recent (?) tradition of passing out shots of Fireball (I'm guessing it's that since it's Red) and then a booster/alumni (could be both?) makes a toast to the team and the crowd. It was really cool.by Chris H82 - Other Sports

Re: Memorial Day Weekend Lacrosse Ticket Strategies - 7 weeks ago
KenP I’m flying up Monday morning for the game. Three questions: (1) What section? I’m thinking section 108 or 109 since it is more midfield and my understanding is Cornell section is 107…. (2) We fly back early Tuesday out of Logan. I would prefer to stay closer to Boston but I don’t know the area. And cute towns worth between there and Foxborough? Anyplace to avoid? (3) How is the merby Chris H82 - Other Sports

A previous post says Cornell does not have a home ECAC weekend that weekened, maybe expect a home non-conference series 1/9-1/10? Omaha will be at Lynah Jan 2-3 per their schedule release. Omaha?

Re: NCAAs quarterfinal Cornell vs. BU - 3 months ago
stereax Trotsky For all you kids, this was 80s hockey. Every night was like this, which is why I became addicted, and why Darren Elliott was All American with a Sv% of about .895. This is probably the best game of hockey from both teams I've seen in a while. Very fast. My uneducated opinion is that the speed of our opponent forces us to play fast and not overthink it. I really like what I've sby Chris H82 - Hockey
