Congratulations to the INCTL All-Star team, who traveled to Los Angeles to participate in the UCLA Sport Taekwondo Open on Jan. 19, 2008. Prior to the tournament, the team also trained with the UCLA Taekwondo Club under the direction of Coach Tim Thackery, and with the USC Taekwondo Club under the direction of Coach Clayton Barber. The All-Star team was selected based on their outstanding performance and participation in the league during 2007. Coaching the team on the trip were Coaches Dan Chuang (MIT) and Tim Marmo (NYU). The team put together a fine performance in very competitive field at the UCLA Sport Taekwondo, which fielded top-caliber collegiate and non-collegiate athletes. Among the men, Augustine Pyo (Tufts) earned a bronze medal in men's welter weight and Dan Shalev (Harvard) earned a bronze in men's feather weight. Richard Peterson (NYU) was contesting a very close match in men's welter weight when he had to bow out due to injury, and Kevin Kim (Cornell) won one and lost one match in the men's feather weight bracket. The women's team also had an outstanding performance. Karen Chin (Cornell) earned a gold medal in women's welter weight bracket, Corinna Hui (MIT) earned a silver in women's welter, bowing out to her teammate in the final. Emily Shedletsky (NYU) earned a silver in women's heavy weight, and Miranda Ha (MIT) earned a bronze medal in women's feather weight. Nicole Houseal (Cornell) also traveled and trained with the team but did not compete due to a prior injury. The league thanks
the UCLA and USC clubs for their hospitality with a particular nod to
UCLA Program Director Sean Yee. Congratulations again to the whole team! Cortland Alumni Memorial Tournament The Cortland

Important rule-changes for the upcoming year include the following: Hogu regulations - WTF-style Chest Protectors (with the shoulder-pads and the back protection) are required for all A-team matches this year. WTF-style gloves are not required but they are recommended and may be required next year. School divisions - schools will be partitioned into three divisions: Division 1, Division 2 and Division 3. Depending on the points scored, at the end of the season a winner for Division 1, Division 2 and Division 3 will be announced. The motivation behind this change is to promote competitiveness among teams of all sizes for the upcoming year. Weigh-ins - host schools will be permitted to provide weigh-ins the night before a tournament at the host school site in an effort to improve efficiency and ease the burden on athletes. New
