NCAA First Round 3/24

[Chris \'03]

Last time a team put up 10 in the NCAAs was 1990 when Lake State did it to UAA in an opening round series. LSSU got swept by Colgate in the quarters.

Minnesota put up 9 on Mercyhurst in '03. We all know what happened that year...

9-2 BU final, just in time to flip over to FSN North for Minn/HC

Well, we need something to get in the way of Harvard - should it come to that.  Better BU than say, Minnesota?  Either way it may be  ::yark::

Game about to start on FSN-N (DTV 641) among other channels.

Let's hope the Crusaders keep it closer thatn the Mavs did in the first game today.

No kidding.  Not only has Harvard racked up the goals, but BU did this to UNH in the Hockey East tournament before the suddenly abnormal 2-1? OT final against BC.

If BALCO was in Boston we could speculate that they had been dumping evidence into the Charles.  ::nut::

Notably absent on the REA ice is any Sioux logo. Instead it just says "UND"

[cth95]

KKAR announcers for UNO were pretty quiet (understandably), but steady and consistent.  Gave a lot of credit to BU while trying to pull some silver linings out of the game for UNO.  Disappointed in the game, but proud of UNO for getting the 1st appearance in their only 9-year history.  Good play-by-play and good at keeping us informed on SOG, shots attempted, penalties, etc.  Politely hoped for the best for UNO, but not big-time homers.  Many other schools would do well to have these guys broadcasting their games.

Interestingly, they said the DU Center? (formerly Worcester Centrum) had lousy press facilities which made one of them late coming back from a break.  Apparently long way down a floor or two to bathrooms.  They praised the arena in Omaha as much more modern and more press friendly.

Minnesota on the PP
edit: now even strength for :11, then HC has a PP

[Pete Godenschwager]

Time Warner listed the Minn/HC game being on FCS 236...Currently airing? Texas high school football :-(

Minnesota to another PP
edit: PP over, still 0-0

[Chris \'03]

PP over. Gophers seem to be sleeping still. HC has a bigger spring in the step. We'll see how that holds up for the remaining 48 minutes.

And Gopher fans are whining about it on USCHO.

What? Gopher fans aren't giving their opponent credit for playing well while their team is flat? Somebody send RichS over there to straighten them out...

[Chris \'03]

Gophers take a stupid penalty. HC PP, about 2 min to go in the 1st. No score.
