Re: Ithaca Stars? - 19 years ago
I was in Ithaca in that era, but my memory of the Ithaca Stars has faded away completely. I do recognize a few of the names as Ithaca High School players. I imagine that trawling through the archives of the Ithaca Journal would turn up some information. Larry Baum may well be able to help out. It's interesting that the Ithaca Stars are listed as "independent" while the Auburnby David Harding - Hockey

It's not like they were out gathering evidence to put together a case. Or waiting for the team to be eliminated from the playoffs.by David Harding - Hockey
Re: Mazzoleni out of Harvard? - 19 years ago
The Green Bay Press Gazette has caught up with USCHO. They touch on all the elements mentioned here and in the USCHO article - the unusual apparent step backward from DI to juniors, the family ties to Green Bay, the friendship with the GBG president, the pushy parents, the administration's professed diappointment - but with some additional quotes.by David Harding - Hockey

Re: Mazzoleni out of Harvard? - 19 years ago
On June 3, the Green Bay Press-Gazette had Mazzoleni on its list of "three coaches with area ties might be among those considered by the Gamblers" The other two are the Gambler's assistant coach, who said he "would be extremely interested," and the head coach at DIII St. Norbert College, who said he "certainly wouldn't rule it out."

DisplacedCornellian Wrote: I don't think the talent pool is thinning significantly, Kyle. The fact that the league has expanded and is reaching new markets undoubtedly increases the net size of the talent pool as talent is being found in previously untapped areas (see McKee, David), so it sort of balances out. ...

The only event for which any kind of dress up is expected is typically the Saturday evening class dinner. A sports jacket is fine, but you can up the ante if you enjoy dressing up.

Re: (OT) Reunion - 19 years ago
It's probably too late for the most important thing, which is contacting (by e-mailing, telephone, or smail mail) all your friends and telling them to come, too. Beyond that, it depends on your general interests. Get together your various affinity groups - featernities, activities, whatever. I usually find several lectures or forums featuring professors and prominent alumni talking about varby David Harding - Hockey

Re: [OT] What Is the Rarest Single-Game Feat in Sports? - 19 years ago
There is also the issue of separating the rare unaided from the rare aided - for example, holes-in-one are unaided whereas Damon's three hits were all made possible by hits and walks by his teammates and would be considered aided. There's a fine line there - was Lemeiux's penalty shot aided by an unusual ref call or an unusual (well, obviously) act by a player on the opposing team? Is thereby David Harding - Hockey

Sundin missed four games with a knee injury. Hurt in Game 4 of Toronto's opening-round series against Ottawa, Sundin said Saturday he had made a "huge" improvement.
