Congrats to Macalester on a fine season.  You earned UW-W's respect both by never quitting on the field and in how you conducted yourselves.  It is obvious, the team is filled with fine young me.

I've been critical of MAC's move to the MWC, but let me also say, I think they played with a lot of heart v. UWW. That's not meant as a backhanded compliment. Whitewater is a dynasty and it's no easy thing to walk into the Perk for the first playoff game in program history. MAC came out swinging and never quit.

Logan Schrader, Dunlop, Illinois High School/Wartburg over Michael Bates, IC.  Schrader's 2014 body of work (11-0) tops Bates (7-3). 

GB/Puck, Still no comments on St. Norbert's coaching situations?

[gbpuckfan]

I haven't heard anything. And been busy at work so I haven't been able to press the issue. Sorry

[scottie]

My guess is that the top finalists are still playing.

Does anyone know what the deal is with Opegnorth's resignation.
Thought he was a great fit and was doing a decent job.

Looked like they were just going to promote their d-coordinator to head coach.  Not sure what they are doing for the open dc position though

[fulbakdad]

My money is on he's going back to NESCAC.   There are a number of reported hfc openings back in the Wall Street of D3.

[46Hawk]

Not a prayer in that ever happening!!!!! He didn't resign on his own terms.......

[fulbakdad]

Now Hawk, you can't leave a morsel hanging out in the open like that.  Do tell.......

[lumbercat]

Yeah, c'mon Hawk- are you really in the know on this or just talking ragtime?

[fulbakdad]

Still crickets from the Norberts crowd.  Just like when last years coach left.  It's becoming to be like the Bates Mansion!

[scottie]

Wait until NEXT year's coach leaves SNC.  It will get REALLY quiet!

If I knew anything I would share. No point in random speculation.

(I realize I could be kicked off the Internet for that observation)
