Quote from: Beeeej
Quote from: JasonN95That was fun stroll down memory lane. I was fortunate enough to make it back to Lynah for those two games. I don't think I had a more enjoyable weekend of games at Lynah, coming out of those games elated thinking that Cornell could again be a top tier Div I team. There was a great quote from Jack Parker after the games where he said (I'm paraphrasing) that watching his team play Cornell was like watching boys play against men.

That's pretty close to verbatim. I still remember it fondly, especially after we'd split the pair at BU a year earlier.

Page 62 of that same link above references our Dec. 1972 forfeit win which I mentioned in my Dec. 1 posting on this thread.
