Quote from: ugarte on April 24, 2026, 12:01:07 PMSaturday's game is for ILT seeding (both teams are in). If we win, we host.

And the Ivy League title. Cornell currently tied with Princeton at 4-1. Princeton hosting Dartmouth Saturday. Harvard and Yale are 3-2. Yale plays Brown.

Quote from: imafrshmn on March 14, 2026, 06:40:35 PMThe 2026 Pecknold Cup has been claimed! Congratulations to the Clarkson Golden Knights!

To borrow from our game against them last year, "Once again a Cleary Cup does not lead to a Whitelaw Cup."

Quote from: CU2007 on February 27, 2026, 10:12:57 PMWould we clinch with a win against Brown tomorrow? Or is it gonna come down to the Dartmouth game? I notice 4 of the 8 Ivy teams finish their season Friday, while we finish the next day. That could be beneficial.
Wins from Cornell, Yale and Princeton tomorrow and we lock it up. idk the tiebreaker scenarios.

Quote from: Weder on February 14, 2026, 11:36:10 AMDid Dartmouth's tie last night give Cornell at least a share of the Ivy title, or am I missing something? No one seems to have mentioned it in any game reports that I've seen.

Someone previously said the magic number is 1. Cornell has 23 points with one game left at Princeton on 2/21. Dartmouth has 18 points with 2 games left (max 24 points). Dartmouth at Brown 2/14, Princeton at Dartmouth 2/28

Oh, hm, I was going off the standings here, which have Dartmouth with 17 points, but now I see they incorrectly gave Dartmouth a shootout loss yesterday.

The Ivy League website is a disaster. It does appear that Brown defeated Dartmouth today so that should do it.

Quote from: stereax on February 01, 2026, 12:00:03 PMAccording to my and Trots's perusal:

Cornell is in the driver's seat to win the Ivy title. Three points against Princeton gets the job done.

If less than 3 points, Dartmouth has the chance to sweep the rest of their slate (@HVD, @YAL, @BRN, PRN) and beat us on tiebreak.

As far as I remember, the Ivy League does not apply tiebreakers to league titles. If two teams have the same record, they share the title regardless of head to head results. I assume this applies to hockey, even in the "derp points" era. Tiebreakers do apply for seeding in the case of a postseason tournament.
Yeah, I think we shared a title a few years back, no?

I remember that in 2023 we won the Ivy League on points (25-24) with fewer "wins" than Harvard. We were 8-2 while they were 9-1 with three OT wins. Their fan on USCHO was a bit salty.

Quote from: Trotsky on January 24, 2026, 12:07:56 AMLest it be forgotten going into tomorrow, we are currently tied with the Cantab cockroaches.  By year.

Harvard's hockey media guide credits themselves with 24 Ivy League titles. They list league champions all the way back to 1933-34 but don't appear to count titles before the official creation of the league. I suspect they aren't counting 1954 and 1955. While the Ivy Group Agreement was extended to all sports in 1954 the league website says 1956-57 is the first year of official competition (which would make one think Harvard's 1955-56 title shouldn't count either). FWIW Harvard's media guide credits Cornell with only 25 hockey titles and appears to be missing the shared title of 1983.

Quote from: scoop85 on November 23, 2025, 03:40:16 PMI didn't realize Michigan was playing at Harvard. I recall that Michigan is notorious for not agreeing to reciprocate visits and they didn't play in Ann Arbor last season.

They seem to like Massachusetts. They played two at BU last year and two at UMass the year before that.
Both Harvard and BU went to Ann Arbor in fall of 2022.

Not sure if it's correct but

https://www.reddit.com/r/Cornell/comments/1knh24o/cornell_presidents_house_in_cayuga_heights_is_up/
QuoteEdmund Ezra Day was the last president to live in the A.D. White House on central campus. For his successor, Deane Malott, the university rented, renovated, and eventually purchased 205 Oak Hill Road. He was given this house for life as a retirement gift, and the university purchased the 511 Cayuga Heights Road property in 1963 for James Perkins—one theory being that this property was farther away from campus and therefore more difficult for students to stage protests at.

Dale Corson chose not to move in after Perkins' resignation, so Cornell sold it. They purchased 603 Cayuga Heights Road for Frank Rhodes, which too became a retirement gift. With a "special" alumni gift, the university then re-purchased Robin Hill for Hunter Rawlings in 1995, after which Lehman, Skorton, and Pollock also took residence.
