Match the Mets scholars with their school (usually easy enough) and their degree (not so easy). Fortuantely for you, I only have six eggheads, which makes it, well, all pretty easy with process of elimination.

  1. Ron Darling

  2. Aaron Heilman

  3. Jay Hook

  4. Scott Schoeneweis

  5. Tom Seaver

  6. Mookie Wilson
  1. Duke

  2. Mercy College

  3. Northwestern

  4. Notre Dame

  5. USC

  6. Yale
  1. Behavioral Science

  2. French and Southeast Asian History

  3. History

  4. Management Information Systems

  5. Journalism

  6. Thermodynamics (masters)

Is "French and Southeast Asian History" a double major or a very specific concentration on the history of the French in Southeast Asia?

Correct. Darling was a good son, and learned to speak the French of his Quebeçois father and the Chinese of his Chinese/Hawaiian mother.

I believe Jay Hook gets the thermodynamics.

David Cone started attending the journalism program at the University of Missouri, but didn't graduate. He was a couple years ahead of me.

Took care of his earth sciences requirement with geology, in which he compared the composition of infield dirt at various National League parks.

Played ball at South Carolina (Go, Cocks!), but went back to school in the nineties at the small Mercy (in NY) and graduated in 1996.

Thank you for playing. Anybody want to dig for another ten or so, be my guest.

Mine too, and I had no idea. Damn. I had always thought Joe Hieptas was the only Wildcat to become a Met.
