First, former Big Green placekicker Jason Lichtenstein '90 was chosen for the promotion where a fan gets to take two shots from halfcourt to win an iPad. After Jason airballed the first, a Certain Obnoxious Writer on press row who was freelancing the tournament implored him to go to his strength and kick his second attempt. Ignoring the suggestion, he hoisted up his second shot in the same manner as the first . . . sadly, with the same result ;-)

Second, this was installed during the tournament in honor of old friend Chris Wielgus, who posted 393 wins and a school-record 12 Ivy League titles in 28 years as head coach of the Dartmouth women's basketball team. Counting two years at Fordham she won 436 games. Wielgus is now director of basketball operations at UMass. |
