IIRC, Stanford had another game scheduled in the Boston area.. They didn't fly east just to play HC. It was an impromptu affair after Stanford's charter plane was diverted to Worcester airport and stranded for repairs. Only kidding about that, planes traditionally got diverted from Worcester airport due to fog, not to Worcester. Unsure if advanced equipment has solved that issue. Stanford was on a three game eastern road trip. First game was at UVA, the second at Yale and the third was HC. They have a considerable number of players from New England, NY and NJ. Great weekend for the parents to see their daughters play within driving distance. gostanford.com/sports/womens-lacrosse/rosterInteresting fact, Stanford Midfielder, Rylee Bouvier, is from Hollis New Hampshire. Her twin brother, Connor, is a Midfielder on the Holy Cross team. A very good reason to schedule HC on an Eastern road trip. gostanford.com/sports/womens-lacrosse/roster/rylee-bouvier/20508goholycross.com/sports/mens-lacrosse/roster/connor-bouvier/14736

So very sad to hear.
At the HC Hall of Fame Dinner, in the Spring of 2012, before Ed passed, I had the pleasure of dinning with Ed and Mary Ellen. It came as a shock, when Ed passed away a couple of weeks later, as well as now, the passing of his son.
Ed’s widow, Mary Ellen, is the sister of Jim Moran, HC alum and former U.S Representative from Virginia.
May your prayers this evening, be offered and dedicated to their family, in their hours of grief.

Holy Cross was mentioned tonight on the NY Rangers vs Dallas Stars game as Matt DeBoer’s Dad is the Head Coach of the Stars. Nice to get a mentioned in the largest media market doing a game telecast. Nice for recruiting as well. Hope that Coach Riga has the video and audio clip to incorporate into HC’s recruiting content. . goholycross.com/sports/mens-ice-hockey/roster/matt-deboer/14369

I agree regarding the long and storied rivalry with Dartmouth. It was fun while it lasted. However, Dartmouth decided to discontinue the series with HC. They rather play Pioneer and NEC teams instead of HC. Unless McCorkle has a change of mind from Teevens, it may be another decade or longer before the series resumes.

Don't say the truth too loud. Some here will be triggered to go into uber-Ivy defense mode. It's beginning to irk me more as time goes on. Although I appreciate the history of the HC v. Ivy matchups and have advocated for that to continue well on into the future, I'm starting to change my mind. Maybe I woke up on the wrong side of the bed today, but screw them. Maybe we are better off scheduling more CAA teams.... Currently, playing the two Ivy teams from Massachusetts and Connecticut is a matter of geographical convenience for HC as well as Harvard and Yale. The remaining New England Ivy League teams, Dartmouth and Brown apparently no longer desire to schedule HC. A bit of trepidation in that they are facing a formidable force on the gridiron. They were nice Saturday road trips in the past with the family. The collegiate football landscape has changed in the 21st Century, and so should we. Ivies playing outside of conference, prefer to stack the deck in their favor and play teams that they have a roster size and financial advantage. Outside of Harvard, Yale, and possibly Princeton, I see no financial reasons playing the five other Ivy members. There is no longer a transformative academic prestige association with hanging with the Ivies for three Saturdays in September and October. The 20th Century is soooo over in that regard. Time to move on and continue to build the HC image on a global basis. Forge our path and image independently of any other institution.

This information was stated regarding the giving days, this past weekend….
Is Holy Cross Giving Day different from Athletics Giving Day?
No, this year, the College Giving Day and Athletics Giving Day are one and the same. So whether you wish to support the Holy Cross Fund, Crusader Athletics, your favorite teams, or all of the above, February 9-10 is the time to make your gift.

Crucis, do you know how many giving days we have this year? Beyond this weekend, I am not aware of additional designated giving days. I will find out tomorrow while on campus the plan for the remaining fiscal year.

Just tuned in. I like the "Sunshine Boys" broadcast team at Lafayette. Leone's 72 years old- was their coach when HC entered the PL. Some would call him a “Youngster” 😊
