The Perfect Fats and Proteins

The Swim team beat Brown at Homecoming this past weekend! To celebrate, we bring you a bit of gossip from the latest issue of the Blue and WhiteKeep sending your silliest and strangest stories to tips@bwog.com

Each week, the swim team coach buys 150 bottles of Ronnybrook Farm chocolate milk at the greenmarket to reward (and refresh!) his team after practice. Swimmers who wish for more chocolate milk may stop by the stand and thereupon receive four complementary bottles.

And fun fact: “swim team” is one of the top search terms on Bwog.


Columbia Basketball Opens Season With Win

The Columbia men’s basketball team got its season off to a thrilling start, as they gutted out a 65-62 win over Fordham. Fordham led by as much as eight during the second half, but the Lions held them to 25% shooting to gain the victory. Columbia dominated on the boards in particular, with a 52-27 advantage over Fordham. Senior center Jason Miller posted a double-double, with 13 points and 15 rebounds, junior guard Patrick Foley added 18 points and 5 rebounds, and sophomore forward Asenso Ampim came off the bench to add 15 points and 14 rebounds. It was Columbia’s first season-opening win in three years. The Lions play at Seton Hall in Newark, Sunday at 1 p.m. (game on WKCR).

In other winter sports news, the women’s basketball team opened with a loss, 79-57 to Oakland (Mich.). The men’s and women’s swimming & diving teams both won their season (and conference) openers, with the women squeaking by Yale 155-145, and the men dominating Penn 170-128.
