Re: Nescac '12-'13
Can anything be taken away from the Bowdoin-Trinity game? Did Bowdoin's goaltending and defense suddnely become porous? Trinity hits 80% on the PP but has been very average all season. A 10-5 score. Really? I say throw this one out. What may be more significant is the Bantams have to take on Wesleyan again who should have gone 2-0 last weekend and could be a real threat if they have any semblance of a defense show up. Middlebury travels to Amherst again for match-up #3 this season and twice within a week. Panthers have lost 5 in a row to Amherst and are due to break through. Question is, who will start in net for Middlebury. Panthers had a 3-2 lead with 13-mins to play in the 3rd last Saturday but could not hold on. Will Coach Beaney stay with the youngster Peters or go back to fellow soph Dan Fullam? Junior Nick BonDurant hasn't started since January 4th. Is he hurt or has he fallen out of favor? It would not be fair to throw the Freshman Yee into a do or die situation. Bowdoin should handle Hamilton unless the unthinkable happens and the Trinity game really was a foretelling of the future. The other match-up has Williams at home vs a resurgent Colby sqaud who have won 3 in a row and are unbeaten in 6 of their last 7 games. The Mules have come a long way since putting a total of 4 measley shots on goal at Amherst on January 5th. Should be a fun weekend.
