Cornell baseball no-hitter

[dag14]

Sophomore pitcher Connor Kaufman threw a no-hitter against Dartmouth as the team won 2-0 Sunday afternoon.  It is the first solo 7-inning no-hitter since the 1960's.  Unfortunately, it was raining and cold so only a handful of fans were present to see it.

As opposed to the handful of fans who would have seen it if it was warm and sunny?

Cornell won their division in unnecessarily dramatic fashion and will host Dartmouth for the Ivy League title best of three series May 5-6.

Is there an Ivy autobid to the NCAAs?

Is there an Ivy autobid to the NCAAs?

I believe so. If the Big Red do claim it, they'd have nearly a month off; the baseball championship doesn't start until June 1.

It would appear from the Ivy Baseball Record Book that the Ivy championship series winner does go to the NCAAs.

Cornell has been to the NCAAs only once, in 1977.

The Ivy champ definitely gets a bid. The softball team has been more successful. They have gone to the tournament 5 times under the current coach and even have a win (over Long Beach State in 2004). There's a thread about that win somewhere on eLF.

Also, I knew 1977 didn't sound right for the last title: Cornell won the Ivies in 2009 and they've won 7 Ivy tites overall. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cornell_Big_Red#Championship_Teams

Edit: Wikipedia is wrong; Cornell lost in the Ivy playoff in 2009 and it appears that the pre-1977 Cornell titles were either shared (and Cornell lost in a playoff), predated the NCAA tournament or were years in which Cornell's conference, the EIBL (Ivies+Army and Navy), didn't get an automatic bid.

According to the Ivy Record Book Cornell was EIBL champion 5 times and Ivy Champion 4 times.  They note "Beginning in 1956 if an EIBL Champion was not an Ivy school, the next highest Ivy finisher was considered to be the Ivy champion."

EIBL: 1939 (shared with Harvard), 1940, 1952
EIBL and Ivy: 1972 (shared with Harvard, Harvard won playoff), 1977 (shared with Columbia, Cornell won playoff for autobid),
Ivy only: 1979, 1982 (finished second to Navy both times)

I periodically go on the Harvard hockey and ECAC Hockey Wikipedia pages to make sure there are no errors. For instance, today I found that the ECAC Hockey page incorrectly listed Harvard's arena as Bright Hockey Center. I made sure to remedy this error.
