Message: [QUOTE="upstater, post: 4346206, member: 153"] Muldowney goes / went to my daughters' school so I caught him playing several games. One of the few kids who played prep through high school. The funny thing is that many of the kids stick around the school because they are in and out of playing for the Junior Sabres. But the Jr. Sabres ban them from playing school hockey so... Nichols ends up getting some good players by default. 3 of the US Olympic hockey women are from Nichols. Brooks Orpik and Chris Mueller (NHL players) are from the school. The gymnasium is called the Laettner gym, named after the donor, Nichols alumni, and famous Duke grad, but parents just call it the Laet, because the school built it after he pledged the money, then he lost a ton of $ in a real estate fiasco, and only more than a decade later honored the pledge.
