Maybe BGA's most loyal emailer (who sent along a link) will buy one.
OK, and maybe if one of former Louisiana Tech quarterback Phil Robertson's grandchildren ends up at Dartmouth, another will leave the shelf. But it's probably a good idea they appear to slap the "D" on by demand.

From a questionable idea to a great one.Dartmouth will beam the live ESPNU broadcast of Abbey D'Agostino and Dana Giordano's 5000-meter race at the NCAA Championships on the video screen at Memorial Field on June 14. The college will provide ice cream and water during the local event, with the screen going live at 5:30. The 5000 slated to go off at 6:24.
D'Agostino will be bidding for her eighth individual NCAA national championship and Giordano for her first. (LINK)

The intro in the tunnel runs a little long and my patience with the music ran out when it got a little "vuvuzela-like" at the end (you'll notice it unless you mute), but if this video doesn't make you yearn for football, nothing will. There are highlights that are jaw-dropping. (LINK)

And finally, good things come in threes. Last week That Certain '14 – who will be graduating Sunday – capped off her first season of intramural softball by going 3-for-3 and driving in three runs to help her team to the co-rec championship. (It's not like she is a newcomer to the game, of course. She played every inning in four seasons of varsity softball in high school and made the all-state team twice.)For his part, that Certain Nittany Lion Junior (in the fall ;-) broke in his new irons yesterday by recording three consecutive birdies for the first time at Hanover Country Club. If you are in town for the Friends of Dartmouth Football golf outing on June 14, keep an eye out for him. He's in his fourth summer working at the club.
