Wow.  Yale gets hot in 2nd period...4-1 lead w/ ~5 mins left.
class of '09

Harvard got one back but is running out of time, 4-2 Yale, 2:20 left

It's now 4-3 yale with less than 2 mins. left.  They're trying to hold off Harvard.  If Yale pulls off the upset that would be huge for us.  Not only as far as ECAC standings but I believe it would let us control our destiny in the Ivy Leauge.

And Yale holds on, 4-3 Yale final

Not to be nitpicky, but Cornell's beaten everyone but Dartmouth once already, and has a game left against Dartmouth (and every other Ivy).  Without even looking at the other intra-ivy results, I'm wondering how Cornell didn't already control its own destiny regarding the Ivy Title.

On another non-game-related point, I think I might kill myself if I see another Tablemate commercial.  That bonus "remote control organizer" is definitly not a $20 organizer either.[/q]

Well, I think the Omlette pan is pretty amazing.  Has there ever been a better use of computer animation than the demonstration of that wonder?

Does head to head break ties for the Ivy Leauge title?  If it does then you are correct.  Otherwise, prior to Yale's upset of Harvard all Cornell could control on its own would be a tie for the Ivy League title.

Sorry for being vague, but since there are no distinguishing marks on any banners I've seen for outright Ivy titles I had no problem including shared titles.

There is no tiebreaking on Ivy titles - even in the sports where it itself is the major accomplishment (i.e. most others).

No problem... I'm suprised the title hasn't been shared more than it has http://ivyleaguesports.com/sports/ivy-champs.asp?intSID=8

I'd take a title anyway we could get it, but outright is just just a little sweeter (especially if we had to share it with hahvahd)

How could that be true?  Cornell and Harvard each had one Ivy loss before today's game, so Cornell just running the Ivy table would give Harvard two losses and Cornell one, even without help from Yale.

 Oops you're right ::nut::  thanks John for correcting my poor logic (I think all of these end of semester papers are going to my head)

The Ivy League doesn't use tiebreakers for league titles.  A tie means a shared championship.  (Is bball an exception?  Or is the potential  tiebreaking game simply for the NC$$ bid and not the title?)

Isn't the lacrosse tournament bid determined by a coin flip in the event of a tie?
