I'd like to take one moment to publicly
congratulate Princeton on returning to collegiate hosting with
an impressive debut. There were a few hiccups with
repeats in the questions, but they had enough staff and
enough buzzers, and the editing staff turned into silk
purses many sow's-ear packets. Furthermore, even though
the thing was a net 19 rounds long, it never seemed
to actually drag.
Also, I'd like to call
attention to Ursinus and Rutgers-Newark, who I think are,
if they can keep their current lineup, two teams to
watch in the next few years; by the same token,
Columbia, Rutgers-New Brunswick, and Yeshiva are programs
that have built impressively since we first saw them.
Definitely try to get these teams to the junior-birds coming
up this Fall.
