Well, admittedly, it's from my own fuzzy memory. Upon further thought, I'm pretty sure that the whole cheer was slowly added in parts.

I'm positive when I went to my first game in the fall of '90, my brother ('92) explained to me that the students stood until after the first goal.

Schafer's words: "There are games last year where there is no doubt in my mind that David could have had the best goals-against average in the country. However, to do that, you can't give up many soft goals in order to achieve that status. You can go long periods, stretches without shots, and then all of a sudden, face a tough one.
