There have been no palindromic scores in 66 games completed so far today. That makes 10 palindromic scores in 1,390 games so far this year. It's been one day since the last palindromic score.

I'm wondering about the Hawks as well. For all their talking about it on the BY, no one seems to know either, at least as of the last game which was just as bad.

Likewise, I don't know what's going on with Penn State. I got that last year was "rebuilding" but they aren't having much success this year either.

Notre Dame lost Riemer (again), she is remaining on scholarship but won't be playing. She was the player that almost left last year, but changed her mind. This time she isn't leaving. While word is she has a nagging Achilles injury, there was no mention of medical issues being involved.

Thanks. I'll get them in there now.

I've been hitting my touchpad funny lately and deleting things accidentally. That must have happened last night.

Edited to add: This was very strange - when I went to put the ranked teams' scores into the post, they already were there in the edit screen. I have no idea what happened to them the first time.
