Cornell Women's Hockey

[Jim Hyla]

Did anyone else think it wasn't cool having the trophy come out with no shaking of hands, or did I miss something?

[DeltaOne81]

They did shake hands afterwards, as the camera started to go away. Usually, yeah, you shake before the trophy comes out... not sure where it came from exactly.

As expected, the hockey team departure from Minnesota was delayed due to OT!
 
Plus the charter terminal is not set up for gatherings of people especially at night!
 
They will travel by bus to Lynah to unload gear, etc.
 
New plan:
 
Meet in Lynah parking lot 10:30 p.m.-ish
 
Welcome/Congrats signs encouraged but not required
 
Red clothes always good
 
Smiles mandatory

I'm sure they did it so the broadcast could get their shots of the trophy-kissing and sign off, since their other programming was affected by the length.

I saw the 1st four periods of this game, caught the 5th on live blog, and had to be somewhere else for the 6th period.  WOW! I was so impressed with how our women played. There were stretches where they were playing in UMD's end. The shot blocking in our defensive end was incredible as well.

And to come back in the 3rd and tie the game up with less than 4 minutes was amazing.


However, I felt the longer the OTs went, the tougher it would be for us. Unfortunately, we (once again) came out on the wrong end of a 3OT game. I did hear that the penalty that led to the GWG was "good penalty" and not a cheesy questionable call. UMD's PP had been very effective all game.

Congrats to the Women and a fantastic season. I can't wait until next year.

One would have thought their coach +/or captains would have known better. For all the crap we take for inconsiderate cheers at game's end, that was a true snub.

The penalty was a good call, and also a penalty that pretty much had to be taken to stop the one on none. The game winning goal was scored a few seconds after the penalty expired, and the woman coming out of the box missed preventing (or hindering) the shot by fractions of a second.

Mary,

Thanks for doing this. It must have been so great for the team to be met by adoring fans after the long trip home.

I would love to hear a report.

Rumors have Marie Philip Poulin looking at Cornell, Wisconsin, St. Lawrence, Boston U. and a 5th unnamed school.  If Cornell is able to land her, they will be EXTREMELY (as opposed to just extremely) good next year.

I'm just glad she isn't looking at Hahvahd.  Agreed though, if we do land her, the Big Red will be Team Canada-South.

Doug Derraugh named national women's hockey coach of the year.

Hahvahrd may be the 5th unnamed school. ::yark:: ::bang::

And they got to share the back page with a long guest column about...the seniors on the men's basketball team.
