Cornell has released its list of football recruits here with information on each.

Next fall's Princeton-Penn football game has been shifted to Friday night, Nov. 7, for broadcast on ESPNU.

The Daily Dartmouth got it right with regard to yesterday's doubleheader between Dartmouth and Columbia in the Ivy League Championship Series:

Seven hours and 49 runs after the first pitch in game one of the best-of-three Ivy League baseball championship series, Dartmouth and Columbia ended in the same place they were in at the end of the regular season.

Tied.

Dartmouth senior ace Russell Young took one for the team in the opener, staying on the mound on an afternoon when he didn't have it, thereby helping save the bullpen. He gave up a whopping 20 hits in an 11-7 loss. The Big Green built a 14-3 lead in the nightcap and then had to score the winning run in the top of the ninth to take a dramatic 16-15 victory. (Columbia was considered the home team in the middle game of what is now a three-game series.) The teams will play for the Ivy League championship today at 1 p.m. on Red Rolfe Field.

Defensive back/outfielder Jason Blydell was 2-for-4 with three RBIs and two runs scored in the nightcap. He had one hit in the opener.
