That Columbia logo is even worse than Huggie Bear. It looks like the old Columbia logo mated with The Joker.

Big win for the Red (just wait, you'll see). Congrats. Now if we could only get our whole wrestling lineup healthy at the same time...

Key dates are Penn, at Harvard, EIWAs, and NCAAs.

Agreed. Has what is ailing Nickerson been made public? Do we know anyway?

(NB: I am referring to Troy Nickerson, so hold your fire people.)

Dunno to either. I think I read somewhere once something about a knee, but I wouldn't put money on it.

Harvard and Penn each have six wrestlers ranked in the top 20, as does Cornell. An Ivy championship is no sure thing--even if Cornell gets and stays healthy.

According to GameTracker, Cornell also takes the home end of the series today, 56-51. Since the Yahoo game update hasn't been updated in a while, I see that Columbia held a 48-41 lead with 3:42 remaining, so that's a good comeback win, it seems.

On the women's side, Cornell takes Columbia 83-70 and moves to 4-0 in the league.

Remarkable comeback. We looked like statues in our half-court offense for most of the second half. Unfortunately I got to miss the last four minutes, which must have been something to see.

Surprised we managed to win with horrible second-half foul shooting and an inability to rebound. Had some big three-pointers down the stretch and picked up our foul-shooting at the end. Definitely a great comeback, but lots to work on.
