Re: Nescac 2013-14
Crucial weekend coming up for the Polar Bears and the White Mules with home games against Middlebury and Williams. Good luck to both Maine teams. They can greatly help themselves as well as each other by defeating Middlebury and Williams.
I'm afraid this is going to be a tough one. Best chance for a win for either of us is a sagging Middlebury. The Mules will be looking for payback for a 7-1 early season loss. Williams, hot off a decisive victory over Plattsburgh, will want to show that game-one, 1-1 tie was a fluke.
Looking at the Week-Seven Update from NESCAC, I couldn't help but notice that Trinity is hogging the top of the individual scoring list. They are a team to look out for.
Good to see Ollie Koo back. Colby had a pretty good Freshman, last year, named Jonathan Sdao. He has been out of the lineup most of this season. Anyone know anything about him?
Covering a lot here... In watching the Webcast of the Colby - USM game awhile back, the broadcast crew was talking about a potential Lobster Bowl tournament with Bowdoin, Colby, UNE and USM. I wonder if it has any chance of coming to fruition. They were hot for it. BTW, their color man is a hoot isn't he?
On a personal note, they just opened a new rink here in Southwest Ohio, about 15 minutes from my house. Among the many features offered are a Noon Skate during the week, where usually no more than a half-dozen people show up, and Stick & Puck sessions in the evenings, requiring participants to come dressed pretty much in game pads. At the age of 69, I am back on the ice after 30+ years (with some rollerblading in between). There's nothing like getting home from Stick & Puck at 7:00 on a Friday night and tuning into a Mule's Webcast. It kinda makes me feel connected. And makes up for all those inter-fraternity games my brothers would never put me in, so many years ago... I plan on signing up for their hockey school next year, after I turn 70. I'm hoping to set some kind of record.
