Unsurprisingly, collegiate golf is currently dominated by schools in warmer climates. Prior to the NCAA Era that began in 1939, however, men’s golf was dominated by the Ivy League. One school that never won a national title dropped men’s and women’s golf in 2020 and unlike its fellow Ivy Dartmouth did not resurrect the sport despite being in the same state that hosted the first US Open in 1895. Name the school.

After Brett Hull scored his toe-in-the-crease goal in the infamous “No Goal” game, the Buffalo Sabres arguably suffered two other playoff screwjobs in the next decade. The first, in 2000, came when a Philadelphia Flyers winger “scored” on Dominik Hasek through the side of the net, and replay officials failed to overturn. The second, in 2007, came when a Sabres center scored what looked like the game-tying goal on the Rangers’ Henrik Lundqvist with under a minute remaining, but officials determined there wasn’t conclusive evidence that it had crossed the red line. Name either of the goalscorers (or failed goalscorer, in the second case) in these last two examples.
John LeClair, Danny Briere
