Saturday Morning Stuff

Internet is out on the mountain so I'm online at the Dartmouth Relays posting a short blog before that certain Hanover High sophomore runs the two-mile. (I'll have that "fun" thing up tomorrow -- or as soon as we get Internet again.)

Incoming recruit Joey Casey is the subject of this story in the Indianapolis Star. The story includes this quote:

After my junior season, I just started getting mail from different schools, including all the Ivy League schools with the exception of Cornell, and that sparked my interest," Casey said. "The (Dartmouth) campus is so much different than the rest. Also, they recruited me the hardest, so that had a lot to do with it."

Former Dartmouth quarterback Jeff Kemp is mentioned in a story about the attempt by a booster to have Ty Willingham ousted as head coach at Washington. From the story:

Former Seahawks quarterback Jeff Kemp praised Willingham's "commitment to excellence" and dedication to ideals, The Times reported.

And finally, on the subject of the Dartmouth Relays, coach Buddy Teevens ran the 1500 in yesterday's Masters competition. Although his forte these days is distances (marathons) and cycling (a cross-country trip last summer), at age 50 he ran a 5:01.12 before showering and getting ready for a recruiting weekend.
