goscots -- actually, the Allegheny feat is not the last time that it was done by a NCAC team.

In 2002, Wabash turned the trick.  The Little Giants beat Wittenberg in Crawfordsville 77-65 on January 23, 2002 and about 2 weeks later on February 9, 2002 Wabash upset Wooster in Timken by a score of 76-62.  I attended that game and it was painful as the Little Giants completely dominated the second half.

That Wabash team included Joe DesJean, Brady Claxton and Ryan Short among others.

Aargh - I give up.

[Li'l Giant]

Ha! I'd have never guessed Wabash. Maybe that's how I was lumped in with OWU fans. 

[Mr. Ypsi]

I obviously took the wrong time to go pick up my son and miss the 'contest' - I would have guessed Wabash (though, admittedly, it would have been a guess).

[Li'l Giant]

The problem with guessing Wabash is we've beaten Wooster exactly once since joining the NCAC. I didn't expect that lone victory would have come in the vicinity of a win over Witt. What were the odds?

Well, I guess that shows that 'ignorance is bliss'!  I had no idea that was the Giants ONLY chance at the prize!

You play for the thrill of competition, for the pride in representing your school, and especially for the love of the game

I thought you played to impress the chicks.

Since we've joined, Wabash has gotten Witt/Woo or vice versa pretty close to one another on the January schedule.  Wabash has actually had decent luck against Witt at home...Wooster not so much. 

I remember that game in '02 at Timken...I was back home visiting family in Oregon and latched on to my dad's dial up in K-Falls, OR long enough to check the score and couldn't believe that Wabash won at Wooster.  Stunned would be an understatement when I read the story on the Wabash website.

No, that's why you play in the pep band.

Yeah, I thought it was going to turn out to be Allegheny (a/k/a "Team A") but wasn't too surprised when I saw it was Wabash.  I'd have been very surprised if it had been any of the other 6, however, even OWU.

I thought the answer was probably Wabash (I know - easy to say now ), but I thought that if they hadn't done it that the answer might have been Kenyon from back in the Harless years.

I'm going to make a complete guess that the answer is Earlham.

The last time that Earlham beat the Scots was in 1986 when the Scots were coached by Lu Wims.  Looking back at the all-time Scots record, I can't believe that Wims was only there 4 years.  It seemed like 10!

Here's a scan of the News-Sun article about Stomper Rozak:

I wonder if that official that thought Bowen was making the story up got to see the footprint on his chest after the game???  It's one thing to miss such a blatant act, but then to not have the stones to admit missing the call and turn it on the player that was stomped on saying he made it up?  That's pretty lame if you ask me!

I wonder just how DeWitt is going to "...deal with it" in regards to whether or not Rozak will miss any games because of this stomping incident?
