Comments
 * Opening sentence of lead has 45 words. Too long.
 * Fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 12:20, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "that ensnared defending" a little bit dramatic.
 * ensnared -> involved.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 12:21, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "defending champion Harvard.[1] Harvard won" a little too soon to repeat Harvard for good prose flow.
 * I have rearranged the first sentence.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 12:43, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "ensnared Kyle Casey and Brandyn Curry" again, too much. Perhaps "involved"?
 * Fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:10, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "the CBS Sports Network.:[5]" odd colon.
 * Thanks.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:11, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "5 Ivy League Player.." five. "6 Rookie..." six.  etc.
 * O.K.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:14, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "('89)" does this mean "(1989)"?
 * Clarified.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:29, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "third-team selection in 2012, was selected " repetitive use of "select".
 * Thanks.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:31, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "Each week the Ivy League selects a" -> selected.
 * Updated.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:34, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Not really, the sentence still says they select "a" player... The Rambling Man (talk) 16:36, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
 * No key for position, class?
 * Added.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:49, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Not a requirement of GA but it would be nice for the table to be accessible per MOS:DTT.
 * It's not sortable so you don't need to relink Hummer.
 * fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:40, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * It says "a player of the week" but there are frequently more than one winner each week.
 * Fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:42, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "(Jr., G - Brookfield, Ill.)" etc, what does this all mean? And you should use en-dashes here instead of hyphens (per WP:DASH).
 * Fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:27, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "its 2011–12 Men's All-District Teams," shouldn't that be 12/13?
 * fixed artifact from copy/paste.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:57, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * What's "Big Ten"?
 * fixed artifact from copy/paste.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:57, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * In District I you link New England, but in District II you link nothing. Be consistent.
 * Unlinked New England.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:01, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Don't use hash in place of "number" or similar, per WP:HASH.
 * O.K.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:24, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Why is the text in the NCAA Tournament table so small? And what is the point of it being sortable?
 * The format is copied from other conferences for consistency.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:10, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * "68-62" en-dash.
 * Fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:16, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Refs 5 and 11, remove SHOUTING.
 * fixed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:13, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Ref 21, en-dash.
 * I don't usually do this in titles, but per your request this has been done.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:18, 1 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Normally refs for PDFs have  in them.
 * Done.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 14:22, 1 July 2013 (UTC)


 * Why the difference in format for Player(s) of the Week vs Rookie(s) of the Week? You have a Class col for Players but combine it for Rookies, it would be a little more consistent and less confusing if you did the same thing each category. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:38, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Rookies are almost always freshmen. This is the first time I have heard of a rookie being a sophomore. It is almost as if an asterisk would be appropriate in this case rather than have a separate column.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:36, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
 * You know that, our novice readers don't. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:14, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Column added.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 22:47, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
