Playoffs at Nickerson Field
Tonight, the Boston University Terriers host the Big Green of Dartmouth College in the first round of the NCAA men's soccer championship tournament. It's not that I'm a big college soccer fan, it's that I'm astounded that an America East Conference team was good enough to get a national tournament home game in any sport. This is a rare day for AEC and BU fans... hopefully they'll take advantage of it and pull out a win.
In other New England collegiate sports news:
- #15 BU, first place in Hockey East, visits UMass-Lowell tonight, a school still searching for its first league win of the year. At the beginning of the season, if you had told me that their situations would be reversed at this point in the year, I wouldn't have been in the least surprised.
- Northeastern is the last undefeated team in Hockey East. Granted, they've played the fewest games so far, but it took them 9 games last year to get their first win, so it's pretty impressive for them. They visit #6 UNH tonight.

Are we really #1 in Hockey East? As in - better than BC? That's exciting! I meant to watch tonight's game because it was on NESN, but I got home from work late and had to do errands .... sigh .... essentially grown-up life got in the way and I forgot. Anyway, Go Terriers!

BU is indeed in first... with a 5-1-0 record after beating Lowell 7-2 last night. BC is in 5th at 2-0-2. Plus NU finally lost last night... so all is right in the Boston hockey universe.
In other news, BU won the soccer game in penalty kicks 4-3 after it was tied 2-2 through 2 overtimes. They next visit #11 St. John's.
i wish i cared...but i don't.
sorry kennypoo.
maybe if you talked about that time we had to go do the scavenger hunt in dublin and it was the all-ireland hurling finals between cork and kerry and the streets were full of crazy hurling fans in crazy yellow and green getups and i fearlessly lead my team to victory and the hunt and earned myself the title "magellan" because i'm awesome like that.
yeah, then i'd care. but bu hockey? not so much.
