Add One (At Least One ;-)

Alert eyes dug up a new name yesterday. (If there are a couple or three more, they haven't yet surfaced.)


Niquis Ratcliff is a 6-foot-2, 180-pound defensive back from Picayune Memorial High School in Picayune, Miss.. He was named 6A first team all-state and chose Dartmouth over an interesting list of offers.

Per his Xwitter and other sources he has offers from Arkansas, UNLV, Memphis, Army, Navy, Western Kentucky, East Central Community College, Mississippi Gulf Coast Community College, Southwest Community College, Pearl River Community College, Arkansas Tech and Tennessee Martin.

EXTRA POINT
Headline in The Dartmouth: Polar bear swim canceled due to weather concerns

It must be r-e-a-l-l-y cold, huh? This from the story:

The Dartmouth Senior Staff reports that due to weekend temperatures expected to exceed 40°F, the polar plunge is cancelled.
