Brian Sullivan13-10 BC in shots, each team’s converted a 5×3, and the loudest thing in the arena right now is the Zamboni. Some observational notes: I’m noticing an NU kid holding a “B.U. <3 A-Rod” sign … the Eagles’ band loves Coldplay (see my previous note) … and I’m betting top dollar that there will be … Read more

At least the stripes aren’t too proud to occupy themselves. Another 5×3, this one swinging BC’s way as Rence Coassin is sent off.
