It's turning out to be an excellent fall sports season overall for the Big Red.
The volleyball team is in first place and has clinched a berth in the Ivy Tournament. Its only loss was at Yale last weekend, but the team bounced back this weekend with wins over Princeton and Penn. This past Friday night, when Cornell beat Princeton in a game televised on ESPNU, it was billed as the first women's sports event hosted by Cornell to ever be nationally televised. If Cornell wins out, including a victory over Yale in a rematch up in Ithaca, it will win the regular season title and host the Ivy tournament.
The field hockey team has qualified as the No. 3 seed in the Ivy tournament, and will play No. 2 seed Princeton in the semifinals next weekend at Harvard. Princeton beat Cornell in OT during the regular season (while the final score was 2-1, Princeton outshot Cornell 26-2). The Cornell goalie, Martha Broderick, has tied the school record for most career wins -- a mark she surely would have surpassed by now if not for former Sun sports editor Jane McNally starting most of the games last year.

Cornell women's volleyball clinched at least a share of the Ivy League title. 11-1 record with two matches left to play. Yale in second at 9-3. First volleyball title since 2006.

I think 2026 volleyball and men's soccer are the first fall sports titles since 2012.

I believe i read that they also are the ILT hosts based on whatever tiebreaker criteria there are.
