Quote from: ECAC HockeyThe longest-tenured Athletic Director in the MAC, Kennedy is in his final year on the prestigious NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Committee. Kennedy came to Kent State in 1994 following 11 years in a similar position at Cornell University in Ithaca, N.Y. During his tenure, Cornell had nine national championship teams, 36 Ivy League championship teams and 102 All-Americans.
Nine national champs?  In what?  (I'm sure this is right... just surprises me. Unless they're counting polo.)

Why wouldn't they be counting polo?

I thought it wasn't an NCAA sport.  I guess the article didn't say NCAA championships so that would be reasonable.
