Running, lifting and conditioning for the football season when the first game is still 182 days away can be a drag. Sometimes a little inspiration might be helpful. If so, check out this page. Or click here.
The Dartmouth men's ice hockey team has had incredibly tough luck in the ECACHL Tournament in recent years and it continued last night as the Big Green dropped a 5-4 decision to Clarkson over in Albany on a goal with 41 seconds remaining. From the Dartmouth sports information release: "The Big Green still has a chance for its first NCAA bid in 26 years as they will square off with St. Lawrence tomorrow at 4:30 in the consolation game. There are still a number of things that could happen for Dartmouth to get an at-large bid into the national tournament." The Valley News story this morning is a good deal less optimistic, saying Dartmouth's chances are "on life support."
Speaking of hockey, I've had several people ask if I have a list of recruits for the men's team. I haven't seen anything official, but if you click here you'll find a list of 11 players who are expected to be heading to Hanover including 6-1, 180 Jimmy Gaudet, who will be joining older brother Joey Gaudet (a freshman this year) and dad Bob Gaudet, who happens to be the Big Green head coach. Can't be many Division I coaches in any sport who have two sons playing for them concurrently.
How does your bracket look this morning? I'm in a pool where you pick five teams you think might advance to the Final Four and earn the number of points of their seed if they make it. (Hint: I'm rooting hard for Winthrop these days ;-)
We got about 10 inches of snow up here on the mountain last night and the storm appears to be finished. A certain Hanover 7th grader noted we had the "Valentine's Day Blizzard," and a nice snowstorm on St. Patrick's Day. Now he can't wait for Easter. ... The Shamrock Shuffle, in which his sister was going to run for the third year in a row, has been postponed for a week. ...
