The unexpected success of Yale and the not-so-unexpected early
showings by Cornell and Princeton (not to mention the possibility of
Harvard living up to expectations) have got me thinking about a couple
of possibilities which would certainly be firsts:
 
        1) We could conceivably see one team win the Ivy League title,
another Ivy League team win the ECAC RS title (at the moment, Cornell
is in first place in the Ivies, and Yale in the ECAC) and yet a third
Ivy school win the ECAC tournament.
 
        2) Dare I mention--with the caveat that it's veeeeeery early
right now--the possibility, however remote, that we could see three
Ivy teams in the NCAAs?  (Point of interest: Laing Kennedy is no
longer at Cornell, to the best of my knowledge.)  Trivia aside: when
was the last time there were *two* of the Ancient ones in the big
dance?
 
        Okay, that's enough jinxing for one message.  Teach me to make
cute speculations...
