I'm trying to remember if UAH has ever played the defending champs before...

2002-3. Played UMinn the night they rose their banner. Vanek got a HT. 12-1. My crew drank for hours after the game.

I went to campus today to see about a couple of things. They have power there now. There are parts of West Huntsville---mainly the residential areas around Cummings Research Park, and I think that this extends into East Madison where Doug lives---that are without power. As campus is now closed through Monday, they've postponed graduation into August as campus needs to get ready for the summer terms. Faculty are being pushed to get their grades in by COB tomorrow, if I remember correctly, to ensure that students know what their grades were prior to exams. Students will still have the option to take them, but I doubt you'll see many do so.

I ran into Burkholder, Bruni, Saunders, and Uusivirta while I was out. Both of the seniors are aiming on being back at graduation. Clarke and Lasse clearly showed the effects of the post-season workouts.

Unfortunately, this is the second year in a row that we've been traveling at Awards Dinner/Auction time. These are probably the only two we have ever missed. Geof, it would be nice if either you or Jamie would provide a report at

Was E.J. Brophy at the banquet?

Did the new athletic director go with the coaches to Florida? I guess if there was any encouraging news re a conference for UAH, they would have shared it by now.

Come to think of it, I haven't heard much of any news coming from those coaches meetings, let alone anything regarding UAH. All I've seen really is Pletsch becoming the CCHA commissioner, talk about reducing hits to the head, and coaches talking with programs that needed coaches -- nothing about realignment potential. Did I miss something?

Unfortunately, Dr. Brophy had a prior engagement that he couldn't break, and he was upset that he couldn't be there.

Everything that I have heard about the meetings, from our coaches and non-UAH sources, indicates that Not Much Happened. I expect June will be the apex for this summer. I'm hoping that decisions are made sooner rather than later. I expect that Notre Dame is in the driver's seat.
