UVA Lacrosse Death Cast A Pall Over Close Of Semester

With graduation just weeks away, the exploding tragedy of the UVA Lacrosse death has leveled the happy dreams of many toward a most somber ground. Women’s Lacrosse standout Yeardley Love, 22, was a much loved daughter, friend, lacrosse player and student, according to CBS News. The young woman was a key player on a UVA Lacrosse team that appeared headed for a national title, but sadly she did not live to see the fruits of her team’s labor. Police officers discovered the body of Yeardley Love in her apartment and currently have a prime suspect in their custody. While previous rumors had hinted at death by alcohol poisoning, it has been determined that head trauma may have actually been the cause of death.

George Huguely is the suspect in the UVA Lacrosse death

Police have named UVA Men’s Lacrosse player George Huguely as the UVA Lacrosse death primary suspect. Huguely is being charged with a first-degree murder offense. Further details of the investigation will be released once the police are ready. Yeardley Love’s body is still at the autopsy stage, while police plan to question George Huguely’s friends and teammates.

George Huguely has been a model of cooperation

It is not yet understood just how cooperative George Huguely is being with police, but various reports indicate that he may be contrite and is doing all he can to take responsibility for actions that may have transpired. How different is that from the usual murder stories in the news – is he even using a lawyer?

Yeardley Love inspired love in many

Craig Littlepage, UVA’s athletic director, told CBS News that Love was a fine example who inspired others to be their best. Moreover, Littlepage said to the media that Yeardley Love had a special quality within that could make anyone happy. John Casteen, the president of the University of Virginia, wrote on the university website that the UVA Lacrosse death had cast a dark pall over the entire community. Yeardley Love loved her life at the University of Virginia, and her humility was an example to all with which she came into contact. “She deserves to be remembered for her human goodness, her capacity for future greatness,” exclaimed a clearly emotional Casteen.

George Huguely also appeared to be a standout young man

CBS News indicates that George Huguely was a star on the field for both football and lacrosse. Huguely co-captained his high school’s lacrosse team. Numerous media reports indicate that an act of violence like the one that may have caused the death of Yeardley Love would be outside George Huguely’s normal character. As the investigation continues on, the sordid details will become more clear.

The stadium also hosts the city’s Major League Lacrosse team, the Denver Outlaws. In college football it has hosted the rivalry game between the Colorado State University Rams and the University of Colorado at Boulder Buffaloes. It is also used for the CHSAA class 4A and 5A Colorado high school football state championship games, and has been used for the CBMA Marching Band Finals. Invesco Field at Mile High is also used for concerts and other events. It was the former home of the city’s Major League Soccer franchise, the Colorado Rapids. Invesco Field at Mile High marks the completion of a sixyear sporting venue upgrade program in Denver, including Coors Field and the Pepsi Center. As with the other venues, the stadium was constructed to be easily accessible. It sits along Interstate 25 near the Colfax Avenue and 17th Avenue exits.

The Bears are part of the Ivy League conference. Brown’s mascot is Bruno. Both the men’s and women’s teams share the name, competing in 37 National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division I sports. In football, the Bears, along with all other the Ivy League teams, compete in the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS). Brown’s first mascot was a burro, first introduced in 1902 in a game against Harvard. The burro mascot was not retained after it seemed frightened by the noise of the game, and due to the laughter it provoked. The University eventually settled on the bear after the head of a brown bear was placed at an archway above the student union in 1904. In 1905 The Bears introduced Helen, the university’s first live bear mascot, at a game against Dartmouth. Bruno, Brown’s current mascot, was introduced in 1921, originally also as a live bear. A number of bears represented Bruno over the years, later being represented by a person in costume by the late 60′s. The Bears participate in 37 NCAA sports, ranking them third among all Division I institutions for number of sports offered. The Bears first fielded a football team in 1878, playing Amherst College in their inaugural game. In addition to football, the Bears participate in baseball, men’s and women’s basketball, men’s and women’s crew, men’s and women’s cross country, equestrian, fencing, field hockey, men’s and women’s golf, gymnastics, men’s and women’s ice hockey, men’s and women’s la… More:

Excerpt: World Series Cricket (WSC) was a break away professional cricket competition staged between 1977 and 1979 and organised by Kerry Packer for his Australian television network, Nine Network. The matches ran in opposition to established international cricket. World Series Cricket drastically changed the nature of cricket, and its influence continues to be felt today. The series originated due to two main factors – the widespread view that players were not paid sufficient amounts to make a living from cricket, and that Packer wished to secure the exclusive broadcasting rights to Australian cricket, then held by the Australian Broadcasting Corporation (ABC). After the Australian Cricket Board (ACB) refused to accept Channel Nine’s bid to gain exclusive television rights to Australia’s Test matches in 1976, Packer set up his own series by secretly signing agreements with leading Australian, English, Pakistani, South African and West Indian players, most notably England captain Tony Greig, West Indies captain Clive Lloyd, Australian captain Greg Chappell and former Australian Captain Ian Chappell. Packer was aided by businessmen John Cornell and Austin Robertson, both of whom were involved with the initial setup and ad… More:

Excerpt: Édouard Charles “Newsy” Lalonde (October 31, 1887, Cornwall, Ontario November 21, 1970) was a Canadian professional ice hockey forward in the National Hockey League (NHL) and a professional lacrosse player, regarded as one of hockey’s and lacrosse’s greatest players of the first half of the 20th century and one of sport’s most colourful characters. He played for the Montreal Canadiens — considered to be the original “Flying Frenchman” — in the National Hockey Association and the NHL. He also played for the WCHL’s Saskatoon Sheiks. Before playing professional ice hockey, he worked in a newspaper plant, where he acquired the “Newsy” moniker. The image on the right is of Lalonde, in the 191011 season and the second version of the Montreal uniform; the “CH” sweater was still almost a decade away. In the 1904, Lalonde started his career with the Cornwall Victorias of the Federal Amateur Hockey League (FAHL). In 1905, he played for the Woodstock club of the Ontario Hockey Association Senior A League. Lalonde made the trek to Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario in 1906 to play in the International Professional Hockey League, hockey’s first known professional league. In his one season in the Sault, he was named to the IHL Second All-Star Team. In 1907, Lalonde signed with the Toronto Professionals of the Ontario Professional Hockey League, and with linemates Bruce Ridpath and Wally Mercer led the “Torontos” to the league championship, losing the Cup in a tight match with the Montreal Wanderers in which Lalonde scored twice. 1910 saw the foundation of the National Hockey Association (NHA), precursor to the NHL, and Lalonde joined the Montreal Canadiens for their first season and indeed Lalonde scored the first-ever goal for the Montreal Canadiens.

Slices of Orange: Great Games and Performers in Syracuse University Sports History $7.03 From the last-second heroics of Wilmeth Sidat-Singh in Archbold Stadium to the last-second heroics of Donovan McNabb in the Carrier Dome more than a half century later, this book is a chronicle of the rich tradition of Syracuse University sports.There are games that stand the test of time performances that years, even decades later bring a smile or in some cases a grimace, to a fan’s face. They are indelible moments that, when strung together, give you a sense of a college’s history. In Slices of Orange, Sal Maiorana and Scott Pitoniak recapture the heroics of running back Jim Brown’s 43-point performance against Colgate at old Archbold Stadium; the pain of Keith Smart’s jumper that denied Syracuse a national title in 1987; and the joy of forward Carmelo Anthony’s levitation act in the 2003 NCAA basketball championship game. They tell of the fierce SU-Georgetown basketball rivalry and John Thompson’s incendiary comments that ignited it and how the Gait brothers, Paul and Gary, revolutionized the game of lacrosse and laid the foundation for a college sports dynasty. About the Authors:Sal Maiorana is a regular contributor to numerous magazines and is the author of ten other books, including a two-volume history of the Buffalo Bills. He has also won numerous New York State Publishers Association citations for his work with the Democrat and Chronicle in Rochester, New York. Scott Pitoniak has spent the past quarter-century as an award-winning sports columnist for the Democrat and Chronicle. He has been named one of the top ten sports columnists in the United States by the Associated Press Sports Editors.
