[jjanow99]

Cornell 8 for 8 in 4th period faceoffs. Not sure what the breakdown was between our 2 face-off guys.

short turnaround for Hobart on Tuesday (forcast is for low-20s in Ithaca)

When is the Meinig Fieldhouse supposed to open?

We were 7-for-7 in 4th period faceoffs against Albany. Through two games, we have yet to lose a fourth-quarter faceoff. That would be a nice trend to keep going throughout the season!

It won't be used for games, just practices, I thought. Can anyone confirm this?

Late Spring/early summer.

[Al DeFlorio]

From the IL article:  "Cornell middie AJ Nikolic, who missed last season due to injury and did not play in the season-opener vs. UAlbany, scored the opening goal for the Big Red but left the game mid-way through the third quarter with an apparent leg injury."

An announcement from 2023 (https://news.cornell.edu/stories/2023/10/new-indoor-sports-facility-honor-peter-c-meinig-61) said

The indoor field will accommodate NCAA men's and women's lacrosse competitions

On the occasion of the ground-breaking in 2024 (https://news.cornell.edu/stories/2024/10/university-breaks-ground-transformative-meinig-fieldhouse) the word was that

The indoor fieldhouse will also enhance the ability of varsity athletics to recruit top student-athletes, train in all seasons in safe and consistent environments, retain high-level coaches, and even compete at home in otherwise unplayable outdoor conditions.

Cornell 8 for 8 in 4th period faceoffs. Not sure what the breakdown was between our 2 face-off guys.

Per the Livestats Summary (for the game)
Cascadden 15-21
Melkonian 4-5


For 4th, looks like Cascadden had 6, Melkonian 2

They will be able to play in the IPF.  There will be few fans if any and perhaps no video from those games.

[ugarte]

doesn't seem like it would be that hard to set up video - i'm sure they record practices.

also doesn't seem like it would be that hard for either team to post highlights from the denver game!

[Weder]

I think they were able to broadcast the couple of field hockey games that were played at Barton in the fall? So don't see why they couldn't set up something at the indoor practice facility.

AJ was clearing the ball and he may have landed awkwardly.  He went down, got up and was then hit by a Denver player, going down again.  He then left the field.  It was not clear to me exactly how he got injured, nor how bad it was.
