NEW HAVEN – Alyssa von Oy had a stellar diving career with the Newtown High School boys’ swim team and when she graduated after the 1999-2000 season she took with her a school record, a pair of South-West Conference champions, and a CIAC Class L championship.

And now her career at Southern Connecticut State University seems heading in the same direction.

Von Oy had already set the SCSU women’s one-meter diving record with a 262.15-point performance back in November and then set the SCSU women’s three-meter record with a 433-point performance.

She will be representing the Owls (along with Ben Michaelson of Seymour, who set four records for the men this past season) at the NCAA Division II swimming and diving championships this weekend in Canton, Ohio.

In the most recent meet for the Owls, the Metro Atlantic Conference championships at Rutgers University in Piscataway, New Jersey, von Oy finished third in three-meter diving with 365 points.

CAMBRIDGE, Massachusetts – As the 2000-2001 season comes to a close, the Harvard University men’s basketball team finishes up in fifth place in the Ivy League at 7-7 (14-12 overall) – and needed a two-game winning streak at the end of the season to do it.

Princeton finished first at 10-3 (15-10 overall), thus earning a bid to the NCAA tournament. Pennsylvania came in second at 9-4 (12-16 overall). Brown (8-5, 14-12) and Yale (7-6, 10-16) came in ahead of the Crimson.

Since there is no post-season tournament, the regular season champion advances to the NCAA Tournament.

Andrew Gellert had another solid season for the Crimson, finishing Gellert fourth on the team in scoring (195 points, 7.5 points per game), second on the team in two-point field goal percentage (48.0%),  second on the team in assists (78 total, 3.0 per game), and fourth on the team in rebounds (101).

Gellert has played in all 26 games for the Crimson, with 796 minutes on the floor (31 minutes per game). He is 73-of-152 from the field (below the arc) and 15-of-48 from three-point range. His personal high for the season is a 17-point effort.

In a 93-84 win over Cornell that closed out the regular season, Gellert played 25 minutes and was 3-of-3 from the field for six points. He dished off a pair of assists and brought down a pair of rebounds for the Crimson.

DELAWARE, Ohio – Becky Osborne continued a solid campaign with the Ohio Wesleyan women’s indoor track team when she took first in the shot put at an unscored meet at Denison University – a preliminary to the NCAC championship.

Osborne, a junior and 1998 graduate of Newtown High, took first with a toss of 38-4.
