Yale University, founded in 1701, is the third oldest college in the United States and one of the foremost research universities in the world. First known as the Collegiate School, it changed its name in 1718 to honor benefactor Elihu Yale. In 1889, Yale students adopted the fi rst college mascot, Handsome Dan, a ferocious and enthusiastic fan at early football games. Handsome Dan inspired Cole Porter to write Yale s famous fi ght song, Bulldog, Bulldog. Today, the original Handsome Dan continues his reign from the lobby of Payne Whitney Gymnasium. Yale students also adopted the first school colors (1853), fi elded the fi rst cheerleaders (1890) and developed the fi rst school fi ght song (1892). Five U.S. Presidents have ties to Yale. William Howard Taft (1878), George H.W. Bush (1948) and George W. Bush (1968) all received their undergraduate degrees from Yale, while Gerald Ford (1941) and Bill Clinton (1973) are both graduates of Yale Law School. Chris Dudley, who played 16 seasons in the NBA, is a 1987 Yale graduate. He was a three-time fi rst team All-Ivy selection for the Bulldogs, and in his career with the Cleveland Cavaliers, New Jersey Nets, New York Knicks, Phoenix Suns and Portland TrailBlazers scored 3,473 points and collected 5,457 rebounds.

Yale made 16 of 22 shots from the fi eld in the second half and shot a sizzling 63.3 percent from the fi eld in the game. The highlight of the night came when Eric Flato '08 scored the 1,000th point of his career midway through the fi rst half. Caleb Holmes '08 paced the Bulldogs with 15 points. Robin Smeulders led the Pilots with 22 points off the bench. SCOUTING PORTLAND The Pilots (1-1) opened the season with an impressive victory over Washington.
