Re: What happened to PWR this year? - Yesterday
BearLover If UMD had a good year they maybe would have beaten us…same for everybody else who had a bad year. Are the people on this forum bemoaning our SOS being poor claiming that our opponents were better than their records suggest?You're misinterpreting what people are saying. At the time, when we beat Duluth, we felt based on past performance, that this would be hugely beneficial for us. Alasby ugarte - Hockey

Re: Men’s Basketball 23-24 - Yesterday
mountainred ugarte, believe it or not, you already saw the day. Penn and Princeton both made the women's tourney in 2016. Penn won the league while Princeton was an at-large. Princeton was matched up with WVU that year too. I seriously doubt we ever see it on the men's side. the year Princeton went in as an 8, they still get in if there had been an ILT. I don't know if we never see it. Need aby ugarte - Other Sports
Re: Harvard @ Cornell Saturday - Yesterday
Will Give My Regards I'm on a zoom with the people I work with and one of them went to his first-ever Cornell hockey game Saturday night with his wife and two kids, both of whom are less than two years old. His attitude about the cussing was, "well they're going to hear it anyway at some point, what's the difference? We're already seeing guys beat each other up on the ice." He was suby ugarte - Hockey

RichH adamw David Harding imafrshmn sah67 Iceberg I can tell you that ~15 years ago when I was a student, there was no such entry onto the ice after games and there was virtually no opportunity to interact with the players unless you were classmates, working with the team in a media capacity, or socially acquainted. During my undergrad days (a few years before yours), there was an annual “Skaby ugarte - Hockey

The bottom 16 unseeded teams were placed into the bracket by the NIT Committee as close to their area of natural interest as possible. Columbus, Ohio, is close our area of natural interest?

mountainred ugarte arugula NIT?nah, but the CIT is back and that's a maybe. This site has Cornell as literally the last team in the NIT. I think they will be too busy squeezing in power conference teams that don't want to be there. Cornell will certainly get invited to the CIT or CBI unless they make it clear they won't pay to play.yale w over brown may help us here but i still think it'sby ugarte - Other Sports

Trotsky Nobody is stopping OSU or Wisco this year. That is a pre-ordained final. Women's hockey has had four 2-team eras since the national title began: 2001-05 Minnesota-Duluth (3) Minnesota (2) 2006-11 Wisconsin (4) Minnesota-Duluth (2) 2012-18 Minnesota (4) Clarkson (3) 2019-23 Wisconsin (3) Ohio State (1) 2020 Cornellby ugarte - Hockey
Re: Men’s Basketball 23-24 - 3 days ago
Jordan 04 Perhaps I didn’t have a good angle, but from 5 rows behind the scorers table I didn’t think anybody got screwed by refs. There was the one Mannon drive late. Otherwise it seemed pretty even. I remember a few plays in the opening minutes where we made contact and Yale was complaining about non-calls. Can’t shoot below 30% for much of the day and expect to win. That stretch of 4, 5,by ugarte - Other Sports
Re: Men’s Basketball 23-24 - 3 days ago
scoop85 Disappointing in that Yale controlled the tempo and made us play their game. We couldn’t get shots and never got into a rhythm. I had a feeling of doom when Mahoney hit the desperation 3 from 30 feet at the end of the shot clock to make it 9-2. We never really recovered after that. they scored ~10 with the buzzer sounding during flight. we couldn't get out shots to fall from 2 or 3 and weby ugarte - Other Sports

Al DeFlorio Shooting 25%; 13% threesi don't like the score at the half (25-37) but other than that i think we can come back. shots need to fall but we're forcing them to use all 30 seconds and getting unlucky.by ugarte - Other Sports
