Nowhere is Corriero’s tenacity and flair for opportune goals more apparent than on special teams. Corriero leads the nation with 14 extra-skater tallies and anchors the Crimson penalty kill. When Dartmouth received a 5-on-3 late in the first period, Corriero helped make sure the second-ranked power-play in the nation did not break through...
...inspiring views are standard in each room, but my favorite is 23: a clawfoot bathtub lies just an arm's stretch from the bed, perfectly positioned for Snaefells to rise up from behind your wet toes.

Three years later, he surfaced on videotape four days before the U.S. presidential election. It was not quite the Osama October Surprise that some Democrats had imagined--bin Laden doing a perp walk in an orange jumpsuit--but it rattled the U.S. and roiled the campaign just the same...
