Very proud of the Polar Bears!  In 2019, 2021 and 2023 the Polar Bears season ended against Tufts at Bellow Field.  Last year was especially painful because Bowdoin was the better team the last game of the season, despite losing and then lost again a few days later at Bellow after not having practiced that week due to the tragedy in Lewiston.  The 2-2 tie on Tuesday this week gave the team confidence.  Today they played with energy and skill. Alex Ainsworth really stood out, but a true team effort.  On to Middlebury!

Long time reader, first time poster. While acknowledging good games this weekend, I want to defy the emphasis on the "four horsemen" per Paul Newman and show some attention to the Bowdoin Polar Bears in anticipation of their Tuesday match against Bates.

After a rocky start against what should have been an easy opponent in UNE, the Bears have started to gel. Strong defensive showing against Conn, where the Bears showed they were comfortable playing for extensive periods in their own end. Coming into the season I was worried about defense due to the loss of some key players so was heartened to see that performance. The win against Wheaton was convincing. The Bears controlled possession most of the game. Tyler Huck has come back into full form this year to score the winning goal against a non-conference team. I don't read too much into the earlier posts about the Bobcats as they always play the Bears tough. Hopeful for a decisive win.
