I have seen this particular mistake come up again and again over the years.
The New York Times' old William Wallace Thursday college hockey coverage
(a.k.a., "how did Yale, Princeton, and Harvard do this week?") used to make
it on a weekly basis, and the TSN annual wrap-up of NCAA hockey stats
(which for some bizarre reason is always much better than THN's) also has
been guilty of it.
Thus far I have never seen it in an official *ECAC* publication, which
given that league's standard of consummate professional competence can only
be because the women in the type-setting room *keep* catching the error
just before it goes to press...
HOCKEY-L is for discussion of college ice hockey; send information to
[log in to unmask], The College Hockey Information List.
