It should be a somber mood before tonight's Princeton/Yale men's basketball game when a moment of silence is observed in honor of Lorin Maurer, the Athletics Friends Manager for the Princeton University Department of Athletics and Office of Development.

Maurer was one of 50 people (49 on board, one on the ground) who died when Continental flight 3407 crashed into a home in Buffalo, N.Y.

I never met Maurer but my heart goes out to her family and all of those who lost loved ones in the terrible accident.
