I told you Caltech had sports!
Score one for my alma mater, who last night broke their NCAA-record setting loss (against NCAA opponents) streak at 207 by beating Bard College 81-52. Their first NCAA win since the winter of 1996, my freshman year.
But don't give me all of this "mathematically improbable" and "brainy not brawny" bullshit. Let's face it. These guys are more interested in being engineers than basketball players, and with an average of 6 classes/ term, there isn't a lot of time for hoop shooting.
And it's not like they've given up ALL of their losing ways: see, Caltech B-ball is STILL on a 0-245 streak versus CONFERENCE opponents in the last 22 years. That made the record books during my freshman year, too. And the team was in People magazine for that....
