FIRST WEEKEND in REVIEW

The Eagles completed their upstate New York swing last weekend, knocking off Canisius (18-13) and Niagara (20-1).  It was a great weekend and an excellent way to start the 2009 campaign!  Everyone had the opportunity to play, several freshmen earned their first career goals, and we played in our first snowstorm!  With 7 hours on the bus (both ways!), we also enjoyed plenty of laughs, food, and movies, of course!  There is no doubt the 2009 team is off to a great start, as many exciting things were seen on the field over the weekend.  A lot of tough competition still lies ahead, but the entire team and coaching staff are looking forward most to the next opponent - Lehigh - on Sunday in Florida! Everyone is ready to take another step forward and make necessary improvements as we continue to get better each and every day.

We hope all of you will continue to cheer us on from near and far, and we certainly hope there will be a sideline filled with cheering fans at our first home game on March 11th - we will be celebrating the Friends of Jaclyn Foundation and honoring our special teammate, Judith Theriault!

Thank you for all of your support!  GO EAGLES!!
