I think Beeker would have put up a better game...

Hartwick note from IC's game notes:

HOMECOMING HAPPENINGS: Saturday’s game at Hartwick will be part of the Hawks’ Homecoming celebration. Since 1997 Ithaca has won 20 consecutive Homecoming games – posting wins at Alfred (2002), American International (1998), Brockport (1998 and 2006), Hartwick (2003 and 2005), St. Lawrence (1997) and Springfield (2005) in addition to winning all 12 of its own Homecoming games. Hartwick has been Ithaca’s Homecoming opponent four times in the past eight years – in 2002 the host Bombers rallied for a 19-18 win and in2006 Ithaca celebrated with a 44-14 win; in 2003 and 2005 Ithaca spoiled Hartwick’s Homecoming with 19-18 and 59-41 victories.


Question: Why would Hartwick keep scheduling IC for homecoming when they had Beaker on their schedule?

Dlip,

We all know Hartwick's schedule has been poor, but I wouldn't throw Salve in the same category as WNEC. The year WNEC beat Hartwick they were downright terrible. Salve has put together a respectable team this year that might even challenge Plymouth St or Curry in the division. In hindsight, if Hartwick lost to Salve, which they should of, then the loss would of hurt, but my no means crippled their credibility like the WNEC loss did a few years ago. My point could become stronger if Salve beats Curry this weekend.

dlip will give you that, well said. Still though, dlip would not want to lose to Salve at all, and if his team did, he would relaize that after the loss, his team would not have much buisness being mentioned as a top tier, or even upper middle tier team in the East Region.

Total agreement.

And how can RPI not be ranked on the East Region top 10 right now at 3-0?  I know people hate them and their schedule, but they finish in the top 10 in the region pretty much every year.  Get with it!

By the way, dlip has not been all that impressed with IC in 09 but Wick wakes up from their happy time this weekend.

That was the funniest thing anyone's said about Hartwick since someone threw down the "Team Boltus" comment last season. +K.

If Ithaca is expecting to come to oneonta this Saturday and just take a walk in the park they got another thing coming...

They're brinin' Tinny Tim with 'em to, "Tiptoe throoooough the Tuliiiiiiiip's" in Oneonta........

Ithaca by 17.

Aren't they bringing Chicago...."Saterday in the park, I think it was the 3rd of October..."

Don't even ask Pep about his encounter with Tiny Tim.

It actually isn't that bad now.  They improved it quite a bit...and the new addition in the south endzone looks great.  Plus the view is spectacular...the only one that I have seen that come close (or are better...argueably) are Ithaca and the Coast Guard Academy.

did they put seating at that end of the field?
Granted i havent been there in 2 years-- just figured they would have a class facility.
room is at a premium up there- but cmon-- that seating was aweful.

FA, I think you have to start using caps, or maybe putting more than one sentence on a line. Your posts always sound like emo poetry.

Seating is close to the same...but they did spruce up the grandstands.  The biggest improvement is the new turf, and the fieldhouse that they put in at the south end of the stadium.  It looks great.  Like you said, space is at a premium...and I still think there is room to add seats on the north end...but they are making good steps.  I actually like the students and the spill over crowd sitting/standing on the hill.

And the view during the fall is actually pretty awesome...

max- thanks-i think

killin me!

Yanks- i dont know what it is up there on the hill but you have to be part mountain goat to go to school at wick---
