The Day After

I knew UNH was missing three starters in Saturday's 42-6 win but Foster's Daily Democrat updates that number in its game story:

The University of New Hampshire football team entered Saturday's Granite Bowl against Dartmouth with injury issues. The Wildcats then put a hurt on the Big Green at Memorial Field.

Seventh-ranked UNH, which extended its win streak against intra-state rival Dartmouth to 11 despite missing five starters, improved to 4-0 entering its bye week with a 42-6 romp over the Big Green, who fell to 0-2.

There were also game stories in the Concord Monitor, in the Union Leader and the Nashua Telegraph.

Elsewhere in what might be called Shocking Saturday in the Ivy League, it was:

Brown 24, Harvard 22

Cornell 17, Yale 14

Towson 31, Columbia 24

Lafayette 24, Penn 17

Princeton 10, Lehigh 7

And in games featuring Dartmouth's Patriot League foes:

Holy Cross 38, Georgetown 14

Colgate 31, Fordham 24

Do check out this New York Times story about more strange goings on with Tommy Amaker and the Harvard basketball team.

And finally, that certain Hanover High junior and her cross country team won the Elite division of that huge race in Manchester yesterday. She was the 12th scorer and 13th finisher in the race, running the entire way with, and crossing the line with, a teammate as Hanover's final two scorers.
