Lacrosse recruits

Cornell has a long history of great Canadian lacrosse attackmen: Mike French, the all-time leading scorer ... I believe Alan Rimmer on the 1971 first-NCAA-playoffs (and title) team ... Sean Greenhalgh ... David Mitchell ... Matt Moulson (supposedly as good a lacrosse player as a hockey player) ... and there must be many others.

I hope the kid's parents at least believe the part about Cornell plus need-based aid costs less than a Canadian school.

I wonder how many we lose to the 21-year drinking age?

It's probably a bonus, because you have no buying responsibility.  You get your older friends to get it for you.

Not that I know anything about that.

If you're gonna mention non-lacrosse-playing-at-Cornell hockey players, gotta include Joe N.

Harry Orr had a few goals as a middie on the '68 team, too.

Saw him play.  That would be '67, rather than '68.  Harry had a lethal sidearm/submarine whip-like shot.  He was used basically as an EMO specialist.

Actually, I meant '66, not '68.  I wasn't there in '67, so can't speak to that.

We could probably assemble an all-time All-Cornell lacrosse team that never played field lacrosse at Cornell. (To us, it's lacrosse and box lacrosse; to Canadians, I believe's it lacrosse and field lacrosse.)
