Complain about naming conventions. Debate the logo being used for your team. Put Middlebury above Bowdoin. Put teams that lost 9-0 to a…

2018 Bracketology, Edition #2

AS: It’s been an exciting weekend folks. The Northeast has taken over the headlines as of late, as we’re finally getting into the thick of things with the NESCAC season.

2018 Bracketology #1!

AS: If there is a rite of passage to become the owner of this Blog, it is to do a bracketology from start to finish. Last year, I took over bracketology for the first time ever, as the Guru has become a monk in his old age and now lives in the distant precipices of…

Report Card! How Teams Fared at the Northeast ITA

Back in the day, the Northeast ITA was referred to as the “Skidmore ITA.” I was always reluctant to use the term, since it diminishes the other teams in the region, but I have to say, there might be something to it. Year after year, Skidmore flexes their muscles. Four of the past six singles…
