NESCAC Bowdoin vs. Middlebury

So today the boys lost. 3-2.

Last year, I started getting really into the men's hockey games after going to one with a friend. Josh and I ended up going to a few more games after and promised each other that we'd go to more this year. I think we both just got so busy that we forgot to check the schedule and we missed all the games until the NESCAC semi-finals. Last weekend, Bowdoin played Colby and beat them. Yesterday, they played Hamilton and beat them 6-2! Today, we lost to Middlebury. It was such a crazy game. Everyone was saying how it was the worst reffed game they've ever seen. We finally caught up to them and tied the game 2-2 in the 3rd period but in the last minute and a half, Middlebury scored their last goal and took the game from us. I think my heart sank at that point. I just felt bad for the guys. Bowdoin is a great team but they do lack puck handling skills. It just sucks because their goalie, Chris Rossi who is A-MA-ZING, is graduating and won't be back next year. I'm hoping they'll either get a new goalie who is up to Rossi's standards or that one of the guys they have now will get good enough. Either way, it just won't be the same without him.

I think Josh and I finally found a sport to get into and this makes me super happy! It's nice to have something we both like that we can get excited about. It'll be fun to go to games next year at Bowdoin and maybe even some pro games.

This post is kind of rambling but I felt the need to update :)
