News and Notes: Friday Edition

Above, A Date in Cornell Basketball History, the 2003-2004 Cornell Basketball Media Guide.  Below, news and notes for Friday...

• Jeff Foote (Cornell '10) and his Zalgiris club are in the final home stretch of their season.  After winning the Lithuanian LKL premier league title and bowing out in the Top 16 round of the EuroLeague, Zalgiris has one last league championship to aim for in the Eastern European VTB league.  Currently ranked #3 in Europe, Zalgiris opens the quarterfinals of the VTB playoffs against Novgorod on May 15.  However, Foote is unlikely to play in the VTB playoffs due to back pains.  Foote could potentially find himself in the D-League again next season for last push at the NBA or could sign a bigger contract with another top club in Europe.

• The Indianapolis Star notes, "Cornell senior Errick Peck, a 2009 Cathedral graduate will visit Xavier on Saturday. Peck, who will be eligible next season as a one-year transfer, also has visited Purdue."
