The Biggest Game This Weekend

As much as I love hockey, the biggest Cornell sporting event this weekend will be the Saturday basketball game between Cornell (16-3, 2-0 Ivy) and Harvard (13-3, 2-0).

Hell, the Wall Street Journal wrote about it.

Open your mind to this possibility: The game of the year in college basketball just might be in the Ivy League.

There will be games involving better teams, of course—matchups that feature Final Four contenders, future NBA lottery picks, massive TV audiences and large crowds. But none of those games will be as vital as one game taking place Saturday in Ithaca, N.Y. between Harvard and Cornell.

Only one Ivy team will make the NCAA tournament; without a post-season tournament, Ivy regular season games are extremely important.

I'll be looking for score updates between periods at Lynah.
