[quote Adara]The CU women's team is having quite a year and this coming weekend is huge.  They are in first place in the league, have set a new Cornell women's single-season league wins record at 9 (with 4 games left), and they have an important weekend coming up.  This weekend they face Dartmouth and Harvard, the 3rd and 2nd place teams, respectively.  If they can win these tough road games, that could mean earning at least a tie for the Ivy title, and depending on other outcomes, the chance to play at home for sole possession of the title. Cornell *potentially* has the chance to see both teams clinch a bid on home court.  Also, the women's team has never won the Ivy Title. With several games left and only a small lead, anything can happen, but it's been a great season up to this point.[/quote]
I shrugged my shoulders about this until Cornell swept the home weekend against H/D. This has been a very good year for Cornell sports so far, with the exception of hockey (which is only disappointing by Lynah standards).

Cornell plays football? I thought they dropped the team because of Title IX.

Is that what's called "wishful thinking?"**]

The women's team has done a great job coming up from the bottom of the league, just as the men have done.  The women may have the best player in the league, Jeomi Maduka and the men have Louis Dale.  You could not ask for two better coaches in Donahue and Smith....Unfortunately if both win titles, I forsee both leaving for other jobs.

A bit of a damper on an otherwise great night for Cornell sports...

The Women's Bball team lost a heartbreaker to Dartmouth tonight, 46-44.  ESPN also reports a Harvard win, so Cornell and Harvard are now tied at the top of the standings with Dartmouth a game back.  Cornell plays Harvard tomorrow, and the top three teams all have (relatively) easy games next weekend.
