UMass Lowell Offseason Thread '13: In Norm We Trust

Re: UMass Lowell Offseason Thread '13: In Norm We Trust

Norm said at the lunch today that the team will be playing AIC at home. I didn't think to ask him the date.

Very cool of Norm to come up with the idea to do that with season ticket holders.
Any word on when the schedule will be released? It doesn't appear Harvard will be on the schedule this season.

A little off-topic but does anyone know if the University is letting local High Schools use the Tsongas for graduation ceremonies for little or no fee? There have been 3 or 4 graduation ceremonies the last week and a half. If the school is doing this for little or no money I think it's a great thing for the High Schools in the Merrimack Valley.

Only Lowell High held their graduation at Tsongas last year.

Local districts pay between 4500-5500 for use of facility . Billerica has theirs every year. There are always complaints about having to pay for parking...

A couple years ago there was an issue when Tewksbury got bumped for ice repairs..

Except 2007, the year I graduated. Renovations bumped us from Tsongas, then rain bumped us from our football field. Ended up at Lowell Auditorium and it was limited to immediate family only.

If I had to put money one way or the other, my money is on him returning, but I could be wrong. If you had asked me that two months ago, all the chatter was on him leaving.

RIP former MA governor Paul Cellucci who passed away yesterday from ALS. He was instrumental in keeping the UML hockey team alive when he was still in office during the first attempt to eliminate the team several years ago.

Now that I'm back from vacation ... ahh....

Did anyone start a new recruiting thread, or did it not happen?

OK, so with the new info from Northeastern, we've got 26 out of 34 games.

The likely dates for Princeton and Penn State are 11/12 for Princeton and 11/14-15 for Penn State. There will also be a home-and-home with Quinnipiac, as well as games with Bentley and AIC, (dates unknown). That leaves one more remaining non-conference game plus an exhibition.
 
Re: UMass Lowell Offseason Thread '13: In Norm We Trust

I love when you guys do all the work and I just wait to see what you come up with. Mr les is clueless.
 
On twitter: “@ChristianFolin: Booked my flight back to Lowell, pretty excited to head back soon. #Hawks”

Hopefully this will end the continuous rumors of him leaving until next April.

If Bentley visit is during the late December holidays again this year, I am looking forward to attending. Those two teams sure headed in opposite directions after their game at Tsongas near the end of December last year.
