You don't get the intentionally obscure insider reference?  Sheesh what's wrong with you?  Somebody PM this man some details, please!

Here's a hint. (http://www.tbrw.info/records/ind_yr_pimpg.html)

Someone should tell the story, or write a ballad, or something.

Am I not getting this because
1. I am not a Cornell grad/fan
2. I am too old
3. I am too much of a nurd
4. All of the above
5. None of the above

?

Note that I spelled Damian's name wrong in that post.

If you were from Union rather than RPI you would get the reference. :-}

QuoteWe would also like to congratulate midfielder Damian Rocke, who is the recipient of this year's Frank Capasso Award of Merit - Senior Male Athlete of the Year. The Award is presented to an outstanding active senior male athlete, with involvement of at least ten years, who has exhibited excellent technical soccer skills, served as a team leader and demonstrated the principles of fair play and sportsmanship.

Damian also joined Lucania in '99 and was a part of the Lucania National Championship team in 2000, scoring the game-winning goal in a 2-0 victory for Lucania over BC's West Side Rinos. Previous to this, Damian enjoyed a college career, playing for both Cornell University and Adelphi University in New York, before returning to Winnipeg.

Thanks. That's similar to Bob Farrelly's goaltending line at RPI

Bob Farrelly 1 game, 11:13 min, 4 GA, 21.40 GAA, 2 saves, .333 save %age

It's a good thing that he found other work. :-D

That's awesome.  Did he get a varsity letter for that shift?  At a minimum, he lives on for eternity in hockeydb.com.  More than I can say.
