Cornell add three big OL commitments to their recruiting class from this past weekend's official visits.

Cornell just hosted an official visit weekend, so hopefully there may be a few more commitments added in the next week or two.

Quote from: dbilmes on June 19, 2026, 06:24:11 PMI didn't think this warranted a new thread, but it's worth noting that a donor has given Richmond $10 million to build a dedicated lacrosse facility. That program has already become an established national power. This promises to keep it up there.

Not that surprising. Richmond is a wealthy private university with a top 30 [29th] endowment and pays a 4% endowment excise tax.  (For comparison Princeton has a beautiful dedicated lacrosse field, is 4th and pays an 8% endowment excise tax.  Cornell is 14th, also pays 8% and sadly we do not have a dedicated lacrosse facility.) 

Cornell at least has a 92,000 sq ft field house, something neither of those schools currently have.

Cornell will not have a televised game this season, the same with Princeton.

QuoteThe Ivy League has announced its 2026 football television schedule on ESPN's linear networks, highlighted by six conference games.

The slate opens on Friday, September 25, when Harvard travels to Brown in a matchup that was previously moved up one day from its original Saturday date. ESPN2 will televise the game live at 7:00pm ET from Centreville Bank Stadium in Pawtucket, R.I.

Two weeks later, on Saturday, October 10, Dartmouth visits Yale in a noon ET kickoff on ESPNU.

Three additional Ivy League contests have been shifted to Friday nights for television: Columbia at Penn on October 16, Yale at Penn on October 23, and Harvard at Dartmouth on October 30. All three games will air on ESPNU.

ESPN's Ivy League coverage concludes on Saturday, November 21, with the 142nd playing of The Game, as Harvard hosts Yale at historic Fenway Park in Boston. Kickoff is set for 3:30pm ET on ESPNU.

Cornell and Princeton are the only Ivy League programs that will not appear on an ESPN linear network this season, ending a streak of seven consecutive years in which all eight teams made at least one such appearance.

Quote from: Ken711 on June 07, 2026, 07:56:06 AMOne way to reduce spam is to just block all overseas ip addresses.

Some of us travel...a lot.

Understood, but I doubt in Russia for example.

Not for many years.  If you blocked all Russian IP addresses, I could live with that.

VPN exists.

True, but would spammers bother with VPNs?

I was a mod for the Ivy League Sports Board on Voy.  Once you start blocking these overseas IP addresses, they typically give up spamming the site and move on to easier targets.

Need more height in the front court.  Maybe they'll be able to look at transfers.

Ken - can you re-post the link to your lists?

Chris there is no link, I compile the list myself.

Couple of late additions to the 2026 recruit list.

Maybe don't feel so bad about that ILT championship game now.

I'm more worried about how we're supposed to stay competitive in recruiting with a program that has far better facilities and far more money. They've been lapping us in recruiting.

The Meinig Fieldhouse will be a big factor going forward in recruiting in many sports, lacrosse, football and soccer. 

NCAA Semi-Final Games: The top seeds won today, Princeton beat Duke 14-7, and Notre Dame scored the last six goals beat Syracuse 15-7.
