Lots of info today ...
First, that preseason scrimmage at Harvard on Friday, Sept. 12, has been tentatively scheduled for 1 p.m., with the team traveling down and back on the same day. The Big Green will open the 2008 season eight days later at Colgate.
A couple of non-coaching staff changes that will impact the football program. Scott Roy, the head football trainer since 2005 and a trainer at Dartmouth since 1998, has moved on to nearby Colby-Sawyer College, about 40 minutes south of Hanover. Colby-Sawyer has traditionally sent undergraduates studying athletic training to Dartmouth for internship opportunities and Scott has shown many of them the ropes over the years. Now he'll be working with them down in New London. Mike Derosier, who has worked with football, will step in for Roy.
Also, strength and conditioning coach Dan Nichol is moving to the University of Maine. He has worked with the Dartmouth football program for the past two years.
Mike McCune '92, a former All-Ivy lineman, will take over as sports director of WCAX-TV, the CBS affiliate in Burlington, Vt., later this week. McCune used to be a frequent visitor to Dartmouth practices over the years in his role as a field reporter/anchor for WCAX. He replaces longtime sports director JJ Cioffi, who got his start in television at WNNE, the NBC affiliate that used to be headquartered in White River Junction, Vt.
A blogger working up a positional analysis doesn't see Casey Cramer in the Tennessee Titans' future as a fullback.
Hank Hendricks, 22, a former backup quarterback at UNH, is one of five young men being sued in the May 2007 death of a professional surfer in the San Diego area. The Boston Globe has a brief AP story about the suit being brought by the victim's mother. Hendricks admitted to being an accessory after the fact in the death of Emery Kauanui Jr. From a story earlier this month in the Peninsula Beacon News:
Henri “Hank” Hendricks, 22, pleaded guilty to being an accessory after the fact and could receive a maximum term of three years in prison. The judge said the DA’s office did not oppose a reduction of the offense to a misdemeanor if he is successful on probation for two years.More from the story:
Hendricks was one of the five men outside Kauanui’s house who fled after Kauanui was knocked to the ground. “He left his friend (Kauanui) behind and he didn’t render any aid ... Hank knew it was the wrong thing to do,” said (his attorney Richard) Gates.
