The Princeton Packet has a lengthy home-at-the-holidays story with Princeton head coach (and former Dartmouth assistant) Roger Hughes and his family. It's a behind-the-scenes look at life for a coach's family.
Old friend Alex Wolff of Sports Illustrated is the owner of a team in the "new" American Basketball Association, the Vermont Frost Heaves. (For the uninitiated, a frost heave is a bump in the road that recurs in the same place every spring and requires replacing the exhaust system on your car every several years if you don't learn where those frost heaves are going to be or don't respect what happens when you go over them at more than 5 mph.) One of the promotions ABA teams use (beyond the red, white and blue basketballs) is saving a seat on the end of the bench for a celebrity of some sort, who is in uniform and allowed to put in a few minutes on the court. While some end-of-the-benchers are purely window dressing, UNH football standout David Ball will be anything but according to this story.
Former Dartmouth tight end Casey Cramer is doubtful for the Tennessee Titans' game with the New England Patriots because of a neck issue according to this story. Cramer gets a mention in the Patriots' game notes here.
