I hate it when they give the COY to the coach of staff from a team that was expected to be good. Hobart overachieved? RPI? If we're being honest, many were picking Union to finish just ahead of Bard. My vote goes to Union, and I think it's a no-brainer.

How about Union winning at RPI?! And Bard was up twice in that game at RIT but yielded a horrible equalizer late

York is a CUNYAC school located in Brooklyn, and many of those players have jobs. So if you look at their box scores, they always have enough players and a few subs at home, and barely have enough guys and no subs when they go on the road.

None of it really matters. If Bard is a paper tiger, it'll be obvious at Ithaca on Saturday.

Chevy Chase not only attended Bard, but he was on the soccer team. A Nov. 2, 1964 clip from the Bard Observer (which I can't attach because it says the uploads folder is full) says he scored twice in a 7-5 loss to Marist, and scored the only goal in a 4-1 loss to Union early in the season that fall.

(The clip says Bard lost its first four games to Nyack Missionary College, Marist, Union and Army JV. Hartwick was next on the schedule.)

That said, seeing him at graduation this spring was unusual. He's never been a big donor, but one of his homes is in Woodstock, which is 10 miles from the Bard campus, so maybe there's hope with that relationship.

Another pair of guys who didn't want to come back to Bard? Donald Fagan and Walter Becker of Steely Dan. When they were undergraduates, they formed a band called "The Leather Canary," and their drummer was ... Chevy Chase.

It's true:

It was No. 9 on ESPN's Top 10 Plays this morning ... but they referred to the player as "Meshanic Jackson," lol

I heard that Skoric's injury isn't as bad as feared, and that he will likely be back second semester. I also heard that Zach Johnson's issue is a meniscus which comes and goes, and they're trying to manage it and get him to second semester as well.

There will be another good LL vs. SUNYAC game on Friday at Bard, when Vassar plays New Paltz. It was a four-point win for the Brewers last year - but Zach Johnson's status could determine the outcome of that game.

Skidmore coach on Twitter this morning asking for prayers for Greg. I assume he means Skoric. Does anyone know what happened?

I just took a peek at Vassar's opener, against Stevens ... and I couldn't help but notice that reigning LL POY Zach Johnson is not playing.
