With  all the off topic discussions you may not have seen this:

The pressing need is OL, and the class has ten lineman.  Of those Gage Blair (6'2 285) was a two-year starter for powerhouse St Ed, Ryan Merlau (6'2 255) was All-NY HM, and Dominic Adams from Lake Cath looks good for the small tackle (6'2 240).  Then there's the 6'4 360 Brandon King, although last year's 330+ lineman wasn't with the team after camp.  By game two I can foresee as many as three Fr starting on the line.

With all these OL additions either Corey Long or Sean Carson or both could move back to TE, the only position missing from the class.

Connor Simpson and Rob Cuda both seem to be quality QB prospects.

RB is also a need as Sicre and Hanzlik are both seniors.  Canganelli and Burke could be a good tandem.

The D standouts include Mentor LB Justin McMahon (All-Ohio DI first team) and Columbus Watterson S Cody Calhoun, who played in the Ohio North South All-Star game.  McMahon, Canganelli, and Perry WR/CB Zak Hurd have been selected for the News-Herald Senior Bowl.

Welcome Southview, what is your interest?

I had a son row in High school. Many of the regatta's had college club teams, such as Wheaton. It is a very expensive sport, even used Shells can be quite expensive. We saw the the club teams especially in the fall season.

I would doubt that most people in small town TX have heard of any of the NESCAC schools, but that ceraintly does not mean that they aren't nationally known, or aren't national schools.  Why not?  Because their academic reputations are definitely nationally known!

To me that's what being a "national university" means: having an academic reputation that is strong and well-known all over the country, regardless of the demographics of the student body.

To add to this I would also say that a school that is nationally known is not necessarily known equally in all regions.  Around here EVERYONE knows the NESCAC schools.  W&L is also fairly well known as are other highly academic schools in the NE/Middle Atlantic.  WashU and Chicago do very heavy marketing in this area but CMU and CWRU do not so the schools aren't as well known in this area.  I don't think that mean they are not national universities.  It just means that they might consider doing some more marketing in this area.

At this time, congratulations are in order!

Two Case men's tennis players just won the doubles national title!

I realize that this isn't football, but how KEWL is this?

Pretty amazing story.  He might have a leg up, too, given that his arm has an awful lot less mileage on it than a lot of kids his age, and he has a bunch of years seeing the game from the other side as a catcher.  Good luck to him!

Fantastic!  I am a huge MLB fan and I will keep my eyes out for him in coming years.

Wyant Athletic Center Update (coming along nicely):

http://athletics.case.edu/facilities/wyant_athletic_wellness_center

Also new for 2014, uniforms from Nike with a darker shade of blue (like the logo on the website) and possibly blue helmets for the first time in program history.

I understand Masngelluzzi and Hanzlik won't be playing in 2014.  However Erb is back from injury that cost him all of last season.

Underclassmen will need to step up to provide backup for Sicre.

[DagarmanSpartan]

Wow!!!

That facility, together with its Belichick weight room, are really going to be first rate!

Since this is a "Wellness Center," I'm guessing that it'll be open to the entire student body, not just varsity athletes, right?  If so, then what a great recruiting tool for all students it will be!

I need to plan a trip up to Case this Fall.  I haven't been back since 2007, and I want to see the new student center, the new performing arts complex, and this facility.

[ADL70]

Great to hear you'll be CONUS by Fall.

[DagarmanSpartan]

I should be back in mid to late August.

Just in time to follow our first PAC season!

[ADL70]

The first since 1983.

What happened to both players?
Underclassmen will need to step up to provide backup for Sicre.

[ADL70]

That I don't know.
