They Haven't Seen Me Crazy Yet

I am class of 2011, odd year and legendary.
Last year the 2011 Pull Team was the first team in over 20 years to win as freshmen.
This year they easily won again by 67 feet in just 71 minutes!



Pull Fun Facts:
Each team has 36 members: 18 "pullers" on the rope, and 18 "moralers" who relay directions and help keep the pullers focused.

There are four cancellations on record: in 1918, 1943 and 1944 because of World Wars I and II, and in 1957 because of a campus-wide flu epidemic.

Keri Law '99 became the first woman to compete as a puller in 1995.

This year was the shortest pull since the modern rules were implemented in 1978.

I like the changes, Katy! I'm still amazed at this year's pull...your guys should be great coaches next year!

Is there a video like the one last year?

No video this year because apparently Even Year has been trying to get Odd Year's calls. SO they even asked me to take down the video I put on Facebook.
