NAU used to have a hockey team.  Don't know if they still do.

Are you suggesting we play NAU for one of our remaining two non-conf games?

Ah, thread drift.

Well, it would be a nice place for a road trip.  Beats the crap out of Grand Forks.

The Grand Forks trip was awesome, thankyouverymuch.

There was an NHL player from there.  I want to say Todd Krygier, but he might have been UConn.

[Ronald '09]

Don't remember him but a quick Google search turned up: http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=6237

He left the Devils before I was born though.  The name is familiar but I can't say I know much about him. What is their team?  Division II or III?  Or did it used to be D1?

Bob Beers also made the NHL from NAU.  Not bad for a D1 independent with a five season existence.

NAU Alumni  I love hockeydb.com.

NAU played in the Great West Hockey Conference for one year http://www.augenblick.org/chha/gwc_his.html.

NAU still has hockey at the club level and it has a cult following.  It's similar to MIT football in the years before they reinstated the program.

A bunch of uber-nerds playing a sport that they're not good at for the sake of irony?  

(That's how I envision MIT club football, anyway.)

How did this become about Cornell Ultimate Frisbee?

There's an eLF poster who knows a lot about this, and that poster is not me, but isn't our Ultimate team generally one of the better ones in the country?  (For whatever that's worth in a non-NCAA sport.)  Looks like they finished third at nationals this year.

I was really referring to the entire sport.

I believe there are several such posters on this board, and yes, Cornell is usually very good and often in the hunt for a top-10 finish. Given that there are over 200 college teams these days I don't think the lack of NCAA backing diminishes the accomplishment.

Ultimate is definitely nerdy. I think the "not good at" and "for the sake of irony" bits fell by the wayside back in the 80s, but the nerdiness persists. :-p

I'm a nerd, and when I think of a sport I play but I'm not good at I think of ice hockey. I'm terrible, and I'll always be terrible. I'm not sure about the irony but damn it's fun. See, obligatory hockey content. ;-)

I'm all for nerds.  I just think if Cornell suddenly discontinued basketball and soccer, nobody who currently plays ultimate would make the JV.

(This works for MBAs vice Law School too. :-}   And Dryden went to Law School.  Obligatory hockey content.)

Please explain these two. Do you mean, make the JV basketball or soccer team? And MBAs vice Law School?
