Was great to see some live hockey. UMass pulled out an ugly, scrappy 2-1 victory over Boston College on Friday night -- the Minutemen were outshot, outmuscled, and didn't seem to understand what it meant to be on a power play, but they've got speed, and goalie Jon Quick stopped 39 shots en route to the victory. (BC promptly trounced UMass in the Saturday game, 5-2.)
Most of the sports excitement around Amherst this week is for the university’s football team, now on its way to the NCAA Division 1-AA national championship game after defeating Montana 19-17 in Missoula in the semifinal game. UMass plays defending national champs Appalachian State in the final on Friday night (ESPN2).
