Highlander Watch: In Pursuit of Imperfection


While the majority of American sports fans anxiously wait to see if the New England Patriots can complete the perfect 19-0 season, we here at Understanding Lou want to introduce you to the New Jersey Institute of Technology Highlanders. The Highlander men's basketball team is on the verge of making history by becoming only the third team in NCAA Division 1 in the last 50 years to go winless for a season. Right now the Highlanders' record stands at 0-17 with the magic number at 12. 12 more games until these athletes can put their names in the record books.
Up next: Ivy League stalwart Cornell before a home crowd in Newark on Tuesday night when junior Nesho "I'm not related to Slobodan" Milosevic and the rese of the squad look to continue their march of futility into history.
