Study break is over, time for some hoops

Enough of this cramming stuff. Time to hit the hardwoods, not the books.

Finals are wrapping up and league teams swing back into action tomorrow with a four game slate, including two key Patriot-Ivy matchups that are pretty much must-wins for the Patriot if it hopes to pull out the season series with the Ivies.

  • Lehigh at Harvard: Matt Stehle leads the Crimson in rebounds and steals.

  • Bucknell at Cornell: If you go to Cornell's site and scroll down, you'll find a link to the livestats Gametracker for the Battle of the 'Nells. We'll give you the ending of the Ithaca Journal's preview story:
    Notes: This is the 40th meeting between Cornell and the Bison. The Big Red lead the all-time series, 21-18. Bucknell won last year's meeting, 63-55, in Lewisburg, Pa. ... Cornell is looking to improve to 3-0 at home for the first time since the 1999-2000 season. ... Bucknell is 1-2 this season against Ivy League opponents. The Bison beat Yale, but lost to Penn and Princeton.
    The story that ran above those notesis worth the click if you want to know more about Cornell.

    Also on tap, a pair of those ridiculous games with D-3 opponents. These things should be relegated to "exhibition" status, not counted in regular season records.

  • Hobart at Colgate

  • Gettysburg at Navy: Wouldn't you love to think this is a gimme? Guess again. The Bullets bit the Mids back in Don Devoe's first season (1992-93). They came close again last year.
