I know that gave me goosebumps and it was a personal high after watching this team for a long time. One thing you can say about Lowell teams that span the years is that these guys "get it" and they epitomize the words; character, respect, and selflessness.

I'm still speechless but enjoying every minute of this weekend!

Great picture of Artie holding up the trophy in this group of shots.

So I didn't realize that the game would be blacked out on NBC Sports and didn't get the game on my DVR. Should've looked for NESN+ I guess..

Did anyone record the game and be willing to give me a DVD copy? I'll buy you a round at the SportsZone tonight or in Manchester. :D

I believe NESN will show the game again this Tuesday night at 8:00 pm.

Could have done with a little less of the Jackie love fest and more about our team. WHile I respect Parker the night should have been about the championship team. Thought I was maybe being a bit pi55y until a lady at church, who follows the team but not the politics, said the same thing in much stronger language.

I'll admit that I was hoping to see Artie raise the trophy after what you said... did see his interaction w/ Jack. Not a lot of people who have been around as long Jack... after Bunyon (probably growing up around the HEA) Artie has to be on a short list of longtimers.

Not to make you feel old or anything :p

Totally agree John. It really was a special moment watching the Hockey East banner being raised with Umass Lowell 2013 Champions on the bottom of it.

Yes, this was getting a little old after a bit. I was so glad when he finally disappeared down the runway and they could focus on UML. Way too much video focused on Jack that took away from shots of Lowell that we could have seen.

I'm still blown away by the numbers of UML fans there last night and the noise when seeing the video. The few ushers I was also speaking to couldn't believe it also, noting that the Beanpot sometimes doesn't draw as well, nor as loud as we were. People I know who watched on tv thought it was a UML home game at Tsongas and not at the Garden.

Two years ago this program was absolutely in the dumps. A 5-win season, followed by Coach MacDonald being fired.

I NEVER thought that two years later, we'd be in this position. This is just amazing.

And Coach MacDonald deserves some credit for this one as well, with so many of his players on this roster.

+1

What a great night. I had 1st row balcony seats at the end where BU shot twice. The countdown in the final few seconds was spine-chilling as was the roar when the game ended. Just an awesome night all around.
 
Re: UMass Lowell '12/'13 Season Thread III

That checklist looks better and better each weekend.

Made it to the SportsZone early and people already talking about Lowell. Man does its going to feel so good to see us being placed

Only wish I remembered to bring my UML stuff today. Whoops...

Wow...just a brutal draw for Lowell. Playing the hottest team in the country (Wisconsin) and then perhaps UNH in Manchester. Almost doesn't seem fair...they'll earn this one!

I fear Denver more... but it was never going to be easy, anyhow, was it?
