Okay. Bad news: everyone knows that JE truly lived up to our motto last year by not only sucking, but by finishing dead last. (We couldn't even beat Trumbull, for crying out loud.) Good news: because of our low participation rate last year, most of JE isn't even aware that we were so inept. With this year's incoming class eager to participate (and look good doing it), a retooled JE squad promises less suck and more blow(ing away the competition) than last year.

That upward trend began at last weekend's Borsodi Golf Invitational. Andrew Goodwillie '02 joined by Hieu Ngo '00, Will McGrath '00, and Leslie Kane '01 on the A team tied for fourth overall with a 2-over par 36. The B team, led by Dave Fine '00 and joined by captain Seung Lee '00, Laurel Abbott '99, and Yong Li '00 held their own by shooting a 9-over par 43. JE looks equally strong in other sports. Men's soccer features the star trio of Kevin Gobeske '99, Jeremy Royal '00, and Pietro Canetta '01. The women's team, captained by Jen Rodriguez '01, promises a run for the shirts. The touch football teams look stronger than ever (this feat is not so impressive following last season's debacle). Led by Greg Goodman '00 and Rodriguez, these teams could be tough to beat.

Our ping-pong team remains nearly unchanged from last year. JE's Indian sensation Vivek Sugavanam '00 continues to live by the motto, "Speak softly but carry a big paddle." Will McGrath '00 leads two JE sports into the fall, captaining both tennis and volleyball. Watch out ladies, this Puerto Rican heartthrob plays to kill. So this year, watch out Trumbull, we plan to take the bull by the horns, and use them to crack open a can of whoop-a** on the rest of the intramural field. JE plans to bite and scratch its way to the top of the Tyng standings with a ferocity that would make even Marv Albert blush. Yeeeessss!!!
