Fuselier Getting Noticed

The disadvantage of playing against UNH, David Ball and Ricky Santos is you are playing against David Ball, UNH and Ricky Santos. An advantage: If you do something special, people notice. Such was the case for Dartmouth receiver Ryan Fuselier, who caught 10 passes for 156 yards and two touchdowns. This Yahoo Sports column has good things to say about his NFL prospects.

The Daily Pennsylvanian writes about Fuselier's transition from quarterback to All-Ivy wide receiver.

The Pittsburgh Post-Gazette has a piece about the city's new Continental Basketball Association franchise owned by, "Trinity Sports and Entertainment Group, a Florida corporation formed earlier this year by former NFL quarterback Jay Fiedler, five-time NBA All-Star Tim Hardaway and businessman Demetrius Ford. TSEG also owns several other CBA franchises." Fiedler's father, Ken, was a very successful high school basketball coach on Long Island and his brother, Scott, has coached the game at the college level.

The Boston Herald
writes not about Harvard tailback Clifton Dawson, but about his possible successor, Cheng Ho, who was born in Taiwan and six years after coming to the United States has run 12 times for 70 yards for the Crimson.

The Columbia Spectator notes that Harvard is unbeaten "despite internal woes."

The Spectator points out that Richard Irvin will be Harvard's fourth starting quarterback in its last four games, dating back to the 2005 finale.

The Sports Network
picks Penn over Dartmouth and Rhode Island over Brown without any writeup. There are capsule explanations of these picks: Princeton 31, Columbia 13; Harvard 28, Lehigh 24; Lafayette 23, Yale 17; Albany 17, Cornell 10.
