Tuesday Roundup: Championship Links

Word on campus is that the mods and the rest of campus were fairly quiet Saturday night. No mod fence down, no flashings, no fires. No one lost in Newton, like in 2001. But why? Growing student body civility, or growing fan apathy?

The BC hockey team was honored at Fenway Park Sunday night during the Yankees Red Sox rubber match. Also, during the rain delay during Saturday afternoon's Sox game, the championship game was shown on the Fenway screens.

The Bruins will also honor the hockey team at tonight's home playoff game vs. Montreal. I guess the Boston pro sports community does embrace Boston College ...

Having been subjected to poor WCHA officiating all season, the crew at the North Dakota hockey blog Goon's world think the Kyle Lawson redirection off his skate should have been allowed. You be the judge.

 

Ex-Eagles were in pursuit of a championship this weekend as well ... BC alum Ben Eaves helped carry the Espoo Blues of the SM-liiga to the title round. The Blues lost the SM-liiga final to Kärpät, who won the series 4-1. The Espoo Blues had never won a medal in Finland's top professional hockey league.

Special BC Interruption shout out to Coach Jerry York, who is nothing but a class act. His comments, particularly at the championship celebration at Conte last night, spoke about how it wasn't only important to bring home the trophy, but for the players to represent BC every day with class and dignity. Thank you!
