Re: Harvard @ Cornell, 12/2/2022 - 1 year ago
RichH Dafatone I don't have the numbers, but "Harvard had a lot of draft picks in the past" and "they had more than in " aren't claims that dispute whether Harvard, in 2022-23, has the most draft picks of any team. I don’t think draft picks are everything, and if they are a significant measure of talent, then we can all point and laugh at Harvard for underachieving, but Beby abmarks - Hockey

osorojo In my opinion the pursuit of excellence in sports is a worthwhile enterprise, and size matters. Bemidji State has an enrollment of 2,800 students, a modest budget, and a D-1 hockey team ranked in 24th place. Cornell Men's varsity hockey is currently ranked in 27th place - up from 34th place.
