Women 2024-25

[Weder]

A lot of scoring balance on this team, and I feel like they're still getting better.

Of note, Cornell moves to 6-0 in the Ivies. I didn't look super closely, but I think they have a chance to clinch the Ivy title next weekend.

Katie Chan with some nice moves to get goals in both games this weekend. She's a really good finisher when teammates get her the puck near the goal.

I just discovered that Connor McDavid's 2nd cousin, London McDavid, will be coming to Ithaca  in the fall

She was on the BC U18 team.  She must be pretty good.

If she's going to play for #6 Cornell, she must be pretty good.

Are any of the current seniors going to be eligible next year due to COVID? It would be really cool to have a legitimate McDavid playing with a legitimate Messier.

I'm pretty sure that many of the current seniors were supposed to enroll in the fall of 2020 but held off, so they will have used up their 4 years of Ivy eligibility after this season. That said, there are very few players listed as incoming freshmen for next fall on the usual recruiting sites, so I'm wondering what's out there that isn't public. It's also an Olympic year next year, so that could make for some interesting situations with the transfer portal as teams look to fill spots of the top-end players.

the bioger question is what does the ivy do now that the NCAA plans on the new 5 yr rule.

Stick their collective heads in the sand and do nothing?

I got to watch Bobby Orr skate in Lynah.  Of course, he wasn't playing a game.  He was brought to Ithaca as a promotional thing, and they opened practice so everyone could see him.
