I really hope this is not true, and if so, that it gets ironed out. NOT cool.

I am so close to send a terse e-mail asking if this is true... gotta stop myself from doing it... this is a "divide by zero" type thing... just no... just no... just no!

Heard that the Lowell band may not be making the trip down. Something along the lines the NCAA requires a roster and commitment that Lowell couldn't guarantee in time.

Just got the Game-Day email from Scott D. with the following quote in it:

"For your reference, the UMass Lowell fan section is located in Section 107 and the River Hawk Pep Band will be in Section 108."

EDIT: Depending on when the student bus arrives, I would love to "officially" meet you guys at the pre-game meet up and have a beer or two....Ironically today I turn 22.....

A bunch of us go to Beerworks before games at the Tsongas. If you're around next year, stop in there! We usually bail from there a bit after 6:30ish.

Won't make it down to Bridgeport. Have summer employment issues I need to take care of... (i.e. drinking with my boss in Maine and skiing before all the snow melts.) I will be listening on my phone and if we get past tonight, I'll be wearing my jersey whilst skiing tomorrow!

Well, the school sponsored event starts at 4pm at the Barnum Publick House so hopefully the bus will be there reasonably close to that time. Some of us will be scouting it out, checking the tap lines, etc. Already have my eye on the Chocolate Truffle Stout.

I would have stopped by but have been mostly play pool with my girlfriend at the recreation center and going to the tsongas early as some students try to steal the easy button seating...

TODAY IS GAME DAY I have a feeling we'll be coming in on the yellow school buses again...Will try to stop by at the school event if I'm not feeling worn out from the ride.

Thought I would share an interesting fact retweeted this morning by Buccigross

Umas-Lowell: 22-2-1 this season when leading or tied after one period (1-10-0 when trailing after one period).

azn... There will be no beer in the arena... I repeat, no beer in the arena

Re: UML 2011-2012 Thread: Part III

Best of luck to Norm and the Riverhawks!!! Safe travels to the Lowell fans traveling down today - represent us well! I really hope that rumor about the band being denied is not true. They do a great job and are obviously big fans. They deserve to go! What they gonna do have a NCAA official at the door denying them entry?

I can't make the trip but I'll be at the Sports Zone for the game. WOOOHOOO!!!!!!!!!

Little tip for folks heading to the Sports Zone: The Thai restaurant "Thai Parima" in the same plaza is excellent! I'm very snobby about Thai food and this little place is the real deal. Most entrees are under $10 and they let you discreetly bring your own beer/wine, just stick the bag under the table and ask for a plastic cup.

No beer at the arena in Bridgeport?! Why the F not? Not interested in an extra $5k to $10K in concession sales I guess.

Leaving for Bridgeport now. Will leave you with this parting thought that hopefully is an omen and sign of good things to come tonight. On March 23, 1996 (this exact date), this happened:

Senior defenseman Dave Barozzino turns the hat trick as UMass Lowell beats seventh-ranked Michigan State 6-2 in the first round of the West Regional of the NCAA Tournament in East Lansing, Michigan. Senior right wing Christian Sbrocca ties Shane Henry’s Division I school record by passing out an assist for the 10th straight game. Sbrocca would break
the record in the next game.
