Women 2023-24

[Weder]

The official announcement of the Class of 2027 includes five players:

D - Piper Grober
D - Abby Thibodeau
F - Beatrice Perron-Roy
F - Karel Prefontaine
G - Annelies Bergmann

A few of the gals mentioned in the recent Hockey News article are not listed as part of this class.

I'm pretty sure they based that article on the commits listed as committed to Cornell on its Elite Prospects recruiting page for the 2023-24 season.

Avar is a 2024-25 commit.

Huntley was committed but changed her commit to BU early this year. I assume admissions.

I don't think Keira Hurry was ever committed to Cornell.

They finally announced the addition of F Katie Chan, a transfer from Colgate.

Is it a quirk of the calendar that there are exhibitions in September or was there a change in Ivy rules? I saw that the team started practicing yesterday.

Were the coaches on the ice?  Traditionally, both teams start skating a couple of times a week as soon as classes begin but without coaches.  They used to be called "captain's practice" but that may have changed.

I saw the team's post on Instagram. The last photo appears to show coaches on the ice.

That's interesting.  I have a hard time believing the Ivies are going to drop their Performative Academic schtick.  I'll believe it when we go to 34 games.

[upprdeck]

hockey has been 1 hr at a time blocks for a few weeks, which is like half of what the non ivies can do.

I have no idea what to make of this video, lol, but it's worth noting that it looks like the team will have players' names on the jerseys for the first time in a very long time.

That is fucking awesome.

After 40 years, Cornell appears to have gotten somebody to do their comms who is under the age of 87.

Now please, murder #yellcornell in its sleep and bury it in a shallow grave in Mecklenburg.

It feels so there's been a tone shift this year from athletics. First full year from Nicki Moore. Will be curious to see what else evolves.

Also, note that the bear, skeptical or otherwise, is gone from the logo.  Just a plain block C.

You're gonna make me hope.

I had accepted that Huggy Bear was as irreparable a part of the Creeping Meatballism of the last 70 years of Cornell's aestethic and spiritual cratering as the death of the elms.

It is too much to ask for the return of Domestic Abuser Bear.

Condescending  bear leaning on block C forever. Huggy Bear never.

Also just looked and the Athletics webpage has the block C and no "huggy bear" anymore.

While I'd prefer "snarky bear", I'll settle for baby steps.
