Wouldn't QU beating Clarkson get both teams in as well?

Taking away a sign with sucks on it is a bit much. Soon the chants are going to be like " I regretfully disapprove of the other team's on-ice conduct!" Take that!

I had the webcast going for this tournament so I'll comment on how some of the matches went for those who are interested.
Nickerson was winning by a sizeable score in the semis before pinning Devoe who ended up finishing third. Devoe had a sloppy shot, and Nickerson caught him in a cradle while they were almost still on their feet, and the matched ended within 10 seconds. In the finals Nickerson took down Sportelli almost at will, but then was caught in a cradle during the second period, but Sportelli couldn't make anything out of it and a stalemate was called, which I thought was somewhat fortunate for Troy. This was the first time he looked at all close to trouble the entire tournament, or this season I believe. Not as dominant as in Vegas, but you can't complain about an undefeated freshman whose closest match of the season was 3-0.
Anceravage wrestled Pell tough in the finals for the first period, the score was tied after one. Then pell took over, scoring back points twice to put the match out of reach. Ancerevage seemed to have a lot of high scoring matches during this tournament, which seems to indicate he can take his opponent down, but then returns the favor, as was the case with Pell in the 1st. Still a very strong performance to finish second.
Manotti looked very strong throughout, the final wasn't as close as the 4-1 score. Schlatter never troubled him the whole match, and Manotti almost looked nonchalant. This was the same result as last year though so I assume Manotti knew he could win.
Rinaldi is hard to watch. He never really seems to dominate a match, but his results speak for themself, though he was lucky to win this one. The final was easily the most exciting match of the night, and it entered OT tied 5-5, but with Rinaldi trailing riding time by :58, so he was 2 seconds from losing in regular time. There was no action in the first OT, so then each wrestler took turns on bottom. Rinaldi escaped in the first period to go up 6-5, then needing to hold the NC state kid to win. However, he allowed a reversal to go down 7-6, only to reverse him back and win 8-7 with just a few seconds left in the match.
Other matches of note:
Konrad, the HWT from Minnesota looked unstoppable, scoring a pin in the finals in the first couple minutes. I assume a lot of guys in the 285 class don't weigh anywhere near that, and he looked like he had at least 25 pounds on Garrett in the final.
Dustin Schlatter, also from minnesota won at 149 by the score of 1-0 on riding time, after winning 16-0 in the semis, he and nickerson were probably considered the two best recruits in the nation this past year.
Shawn Bunch ,who won at 133, was the guy Travis Lee beat in the NCAA finals last year, avenging a loss earlier in the season. He looks great this year.
Well thats all, looking forward to seeing some of the duals; on campus next semester, and wishing I could see the one against Michigan on tuesday.

All the article really tells you is the ridiculous amount of red tape when attempting to build anything.

You're saying a "david has DAHD" sign from an opposing fan would be out of line? ::uhoh::

I agree. The fact that a weekend sweep, if unconvincing, is a cause for concern is a sign that the team is strong. Obviously expectations are high, but we got 4 points, made the plays we needed to, and have to look towards harvard and dartmouth(both of which lost to Q, eek)
