Cornell Big Red Women's hockey 2009-2010

Re: Cornell Big Red Women's hockey 2009-2010

Cornell scores with 34 seconds left in the first to go up 1-0. White from Danforth and Fortino. Shots after 1 are 6-5 Clarkson.

I think it's his first try. He knows the players' names and he's not obviously inebriated, so that's better than a quarter of the men's broadcasters right there.

Yeah, he's clearly above Brown's announcers.

Disappointing period. Clarkson dominated from the start but a late penalty caused a change in momentum and we're down on the scoreboard. I'd expect the second period to be more wide open on both sides of the ice.

Just asking a favor... Can you guys put score updates in the Scores and Highlights thread? Thanks. :)

That's pretty neat Kepler. When did Cornell's program start? I know Tech's is only 10 years old.

- 13 years in a row ('98-'10) with at least one Ivy school in the final.
- An Ivy school won every time out.
- 6 of those 13 years, it was an all Ivy final.

They won every Ivy title between 1976 and 1981, so it's at least that old.

What's the reason for Mercyhurst's sudden rise?

M'Hurst will come back down in the pack, along with CCT and Cornell next year. Some of the traditional powerhouses have suffered due to players lost to the Olympics.

Cornell actually lost their best player to the Olympics (Rebecca Johnston).

It wasn't all that sudden....

Mercyhurst started off as the best of the independent great lakes programs that started in 1999 and slowly got better.

They slowly become more national competitive, climbed the rankings a few spots every year, barely broke the top 8 before the tourney expanded to 8, and has made the tourney ever since. Until last season they couldn't make it over the hump of the NCAA quarterfinals.

Their biggest jump was between 2005-06 (when they were about 8th nationally) and 2006-07 (when they were 1st nationally for a time and finished 2nd, but still lost in the NCAA quarterfinals). The biggest factor was landing Meghan Agosta, who was the Olympic MVP this year.

Mercyhurst has been in the top 4 pretty much ever since (though they dippeed a bit in 07-08).

Now the program is strong enough they can be No. 1 even without Agosta.

And besides you're probably playing UMD if you win, not Mercyhurst.

No offense; I honestly had no idea.
 
Re: Cornell Big Red Women's hockey 2009-2010

Nice wrap-around gives Cornell a 2-0 lead. I wish the WVBR announcer would stop saying "second half."

Uh, yeah, Cornell is getting Johnston back and Mercyhurst is getting Agosta back. They're not going anywhere. They'll both be Frozen Four favorites.

Wisconsin and UMD are the only "traditional powers" getting anything back from Vancouver. They'll be the other Frozen Four favorites.

Minnesota gets not much back because the Lam's transferred to North Dakota.

I expect BU will be favored to repeat in Hockey East. They get Wakefield from UNH.

Cornell is also getting Jenner who was centralized with Team Canada but did not make the Olympic team.
