It’s time once again to look back at the weekend in sports in the Ivy League, or as it is also known, the Old Ocho. With last week being spring break for most of the Ocho, many teams took road trips to schools in the west and south. It was a nice chance of pace as they were able to lose in warm weather. But one Ivy school stayed in the cold and won, and that’s why they lead this week’s list.

1. Yale

Holds bragging rights over: Cornell

The Eli’s men’s hockey team won its first ever ECAC Hockey Tournament Championship this weekend. In the semifinals on Friday, the Bulldogs scored two goals in the final two minutes to rally past St. Lawrence 4-3, and in the finals on Saturday, they stomped Cornell 5-0. Yale received even better news when the NCAA men’s hockey tournament bracket was released on Sunday. Thanks to what can only be Skull & Bones working their dastardly influence by annexing Fairfield University, the Bulldogs were named the host of the East Regional in Bridgeport, Connecticut. They managed to be the host despite not actually hosting any games there this season. Anyway, this means that the Elis only need to win two games in their home state to make the Frozen Four. This is example #5,763 of Yale making the world less fair for the rest of us.

2. Brown

Holds bragging rights over: Dartmouth

Both Bears teams in the Ivy League’s only nationally competitive spring sport (lacrosse) won this weekend. The nationally ranked men beat Dartmouth and the women squeaked by UConn. Of course, Connecticut’s women’s lacrosse team is essentially the bizzaro version of their women’s basketball team, but still…

Everyone else after the jump.

3. Penn

Holds bragging rights over: Cornell

Hey Penn women’s lacrosse! You can’t demolish a Cornell team like that! Only Missouri and Stanford can do that. And Syracuse. And sometimes Yale.

4. Cornell

Holds bragging rights over: Princeton

It was a busy and mixed weekend for Cornell sports. On the plus side for the Big Red, they beat Princeton in the semifinals of the ECAC Hockey Tournament by scoring two goals in the last four minutes to tie the game and winning in double overtime. On the negative side, there was the team’s next hockey game. Also on the down side, the men’s basketball team was destroyed in the NCAA tournament for the second year in a row. On the up side, the destruction wasn’t as bad as last year’s, so Cornellians are considering it to be a moral victory. Also this weekend, Cornell wrestler Troy Nickerson won a national title at 125 lbs. by beating a gay porn star in the finals. That’s actually not a joke. (Extremely NSFW, but we kinda hope you already clicked on it.)

5. Columbia (and Barnard too)

Holds bragging rights over: Zorro

The Lions finished fourth at the NCAA Fencing Championships, the best out of the Ancient Eight schools. Junior Daria Schneider–who is most well-known for her MTV show–finished third in women’s sabre. Schneider is so skilled in fencing that even her Facebook pokes draw blood! [rimshot]

6. Princeton

Holds bragging rights over: Western College Hockey

Despite blowing the late two-goal lead against Cornell in the ECAC Hockey semifinals, the Tigers still managed to clinch an NCAA Men’s Ice Hockey Tournament berth by tying St. Lawrence in the third place game. That makes three ECAC schools in the tournament for the first time since 2005 and three Ivy League schools for the first time ever. That’s the same number of tournament entries as the vaunted WCHA hockey conference had this year–none of which were traditional college hockey powers Minnesota and Wisconsin–and their fans are upset. The Tigers have a tough first-round game, however, as they will travel to Minneapolis to face Minnesota-Duluth, which is the Rutgers-Camden of the Land of 10,000 Lakes.

7. Harvard

Holds bragging rights over: Penn

Harvard’s good men’s lacrosse team dominated the Quakers’ bad men’s lacrosse team and a few Crimson fencers did well. But those accomplishments are outweighed by the fact that the Harvard baseball team was swept by a school nicknamed the Gentlemen. And you thought being named after a dark shade of red was bad.

Oh, and there’s this.

8. Dartmouth

Holds bragging rights over: Everyone if they talk about winning the Ivy women’s basketball title and stop there

Thanks for taking one for the team!
