Short version for Cornell fans:  Seibald first team, Glynn second team, Hurley and Moyer honorable mention.  Princeton D Cocoziello (1st) and Brown G Burke (2nd) the only other non-HM Ivy players.  

Editorial comment:  Is it possible for a guy who was honorable mention for the All-America team to be not getting enough credit?  Hurley had significantly better output than a few of those guys, most notably Hopkins A Huntley (3rd).

Huntley had more impact in big games; not to diminish his great year, but Hurley was not a big factor in our losses.

Huntley had more impact in big games; not to diminish his great year, but Hurley was not a big factor in our losses.[/quote]I think that's probably true of a lot of players (Paul Rabil's performance in the national championship game notwithstanding).  It's a truism - teams generally lose when their good players play bad games.

For what it's worth (not much probably), Huntley had 2 G and 1 A in the title game (out of 10 Hopkins goals), the same line as Hurley had in CU's loss to Ohio State (out of 7 Cornell goals).

Hurley's first goal in the OSU game came with the score 12-2.  Meant nothing.

Hurley's first goal in the OSU game came with the score 12-2.  Meant nothing.[/quote]... and?  Does that somehow invalidate everything else he did all season?

No.  But it does mean that any comparisons made using his OSU game line are pretty meaningless.
