Re: Cornell Hockey Coverage - 5 days ago
Jmcds Hello everyone! My name is Jane McNally and I’m a student covering the Cornell hockey beat for the Cornell Daily Sun. I’ve seen some mentions on here of the Sun’s hockey coverage, so I want to personally thank all of those who tune into our coverage and read! I’m going to be running for sports editor of the paper next semester, and one of my main goals is to expand hockey coverage andby scoop85 - Hockey

Pghas update on Tyler Wishart - back from injury and seems to be hitting his stride - 4 points in 2 games over the weekend, primary helper on OT winner, player of the game, and now 7 pts in 8 games. Charlie Major (from Skaneatlas aka Skinny atlas) also having a solid year for the Chicago Steel w 13 points in 18 games. Also worth commenting that Chase Pirtle, with 23 points in 22 games for Nanaby scoop85 - Hockey

Swampy Dafatone ugarte Trotsky ugarteI am still annoyed at their terror at any forecheck and we have ONE player on the team who likes - actually likes - to shoot the puck (Bancroft) and every time he's on the wing with space, whoever is passing it to him handcuffs him so he can't one-time it. Morgan Barron would have killed someone by now. I agree with this generally, but Penny and Walsh alby scoop85 - Hockey
Re: Recruits 2023 and beyond - 8 days ago
scoop85 Charlie Major, a 17-year-old forward from up the road in Skaneateles, committed to the Big Red today. He’s currently playing in the U-18 circuit, and has been drafted by the Chicago Steel of the USHL. Katz still listed as a Cornell commit, so perhaps we're bringing in 2 goalies next year.by scoop85 - Hockey

Trotsky This color guy is an inbred homer, but he has said some pretty interesting things when he wasn't channeling an angry BU undergrad. I’m fascinated how these homers lack total self awareness regarding how ridiculous they can sound.by scoop85 - Hockey

Re: Men’s Basketball 23-24 - 15 days ago
ugarte Insane subscription fees for what does not look like an interesting set of offerings behind the paywall and no single-event option. And it's not like the event was making money from ticket sales. The photo attached to the game recap may be the most swagless event photo I've ever seen. The action shot is a free throw. I think they may be playing in a HS gym. Hilarious.by scoop85 - Other Sports
Re: New Cornell football coach search - 15 days ago
On Parker’s website (that’s the search company), they say their average turn around time on a head coaching search is 10-14 days. I assume that’s the timeframe for identifying recommended candidates.by scoop85 - Other Sports

Scersk '97 scoop85 Scersk '97 Psenicka needs to get over his sophomore slump right about now, now, now; it would be great if DeSantis avoided one. Psenicka is having a junior slump, which is even more perplexing. For the record, I considered Psenicka's sophomore year as a slump and this year so far as a continuation thereof.

Re: Cornell football 2023 - 16 days ago
Swampy From 2018 to 2023 she was AD at Colgate, which is a better comparison (but academically still considerably inferior) to Cornell. 'Gate did win the Patriot League championship in 2018, but never after that. In fact, during the years she was AD at Colgate, the 2018 football team was the only Colgate team to win a Patriot League championship in any sport. So, a search for a new coach isby scoop85 - Other Sports

Scersk '97 Trotsky BearLover sah67 scoop85 Tonight Psenicka had several golden opportunities that he just couldn’t bury. Mind boggling. Just to pile on, all you have to do is look at the stats on CHN. The top of our scoring is Seger, Bancroft, Penney, and freshmen.

Re: Cornell @ Princeton 11/18/23 - 17 days ago
Psenicka and DeSantis are poster boys for the struggles we’re going through as a team. Both guys have been solid contributors in the past, but neither guy can sniff a goal right now. Tonight Psenicka had several golden opportunities that he just couldn’t bury. Mind boggling.by scoop85 - Hockey

Re: Men’s Basketball 23-24 - 19 days ago
The top 6 Ivy teams (excluding Dartmouth and Columbia) all look solid. Yale and Princeton are likely a cut above, so it appears likely to be a 4-team battle for the the other 2 spots in the Ivy tournament. But a lot of basketball left to be played.by scoop85 - Other Sports

BearLover scoop85 chimpfood BearLover BearLover We were due for some bad luck but wow, how do we not score on any of those odd-man rushes, including the 2x0? We didn’t come remotely close to executing on any of them. Dartmouth actually looked solid, but Cornell should have scored at least four goals. Also unclear what happened on the first Dartmouth goal, which came on a run of the mill slapshotby scoop85 - Hockey

Al DeFlorio mountainred Season Opener tonight at Lehigh. Last year v. the formerly Engineers was maybe the best game the guys played all season. The pregame notes list Gray, Manon and Noard as starters -- all expected -- but then list Sophomores Nix and Noard as joining them. Does anyone know if Nazir Williams is hurt? Quite a handicap if Noard has to play two positions. Putting aside Noarby scoop85 - Other Sports

I didn’t go back to watch again but when it happened I thought it was Psenicka skating hard in a line, the Yale player coming in from the side trying to lunge with his stick and leaned down and forward, and the sweep of Psenicka’s arm as heby scoop85 - Hockey
