PiersonPierson winter IMs are down--but we're not out. Recent losses in A-hoops, ice hockey, and men's volleyball have brought great sadness over their fallen dynasties. Pierson pride still courses through the veins of winter IM participants, however, and will no doubt shine forth in a few more victories this season.In basketball, women's hoops made up for its early losses, and ended up with an overall winning record of 6-4. Behind the team's recent wins is the stunning offense of Kasey "Women can jump" Walker '00 and Anna "The man" Erickson '00, and the team leadership of Cory "The rock" Nakata '99. The team pulverized JE Monday despite playing most of the game a man short. Squash has been the true expression of Pierson pride, as Andy "Deez nutz" Borbel-ly '00 and Jay "Yok-" Ozuna '00 have taken up the sport. Andy says, "I would rather get run over by a Mack truck then watch Pierson forfeit one game." Jay chimes in, "The ball stings at first, but I give new meaning to `Take one for the team.'" Heather "Smash" Weymouth '01 has also represented with the fierce attitude the team has been known for. I was approached lately and asked, "Why does Pierson suck?" After beating that insolent punk to a bloody pulp, I realized that Pierson does have the best athletes in all of Yale; they just need to show up more. So let's get our lazy asses out to the courts and finish this season with pride. Let's show all the insolents what we're truly made of.
