A little behind on things

So, I firmly intended to get out a post about our thrilling win over Iowa last week. Really! I wasn't going to use work as an excuse or anything. But then I got kind of sick (here come the excuses!) and then a whole other weekend's slate of games happened...So, let's just all say that we're happy to be 5-0, to be rested from a bye week, and to be recognized in a couple of national polls [pdf].

In other sports news about which to be happy, some of us don't hail from Chicago and we are celebrating the first NLCS appearance for the Phillies since 1993. Joe Carter is out of league, so hopefully there's no one to stop the Phightin's. He is out of the league, right?

Back to NU to finish things off, the men's soccer team improved to 9-0-2 with a win over Penn State. They entered the week ranked #3 in the nation, and with #2 St. Johns losing, the Cats should be poised to move up a rung.

Let's go Cats (and Cats) (and Phillies)!
