Schafer mentioned that both teams were stuck for a NC game (or is it "an" NC
game?) and so they hooked up.  Why they then went to LI... I dunno.  The
bars?

That *was* a good interview.  Kent was quite well-spoken.  BTW, the "Kim" he
mentioned was his wife, Kim, a former Cornell player and sister of the
immortal Dan Ratushny (as well as admitted but subsequently injured player
Greg).
 
Well, at least I hope it was that Kim...

Doug Battaglia played for RPI last year.  He would be a senior this year --
dunno if he is on their roster.
