>>> Mike Litos chimes in with his early analysis of Northeastern’s ”experience paradox.” Essentially, NU has a good deal of experienced starters, and a heavily inexperienced bench. He also looks at team “themes” from around the CAA. [The CAA: Life as a Mid Major]

>>> Eugene Spates, who graduated earlier this year, will play basketball in Luxembourg this fall. We are working on the story, and we will continue to update.

>>> The Boston Globe reports that tickets for the upcoming college hockey Winter Classic games will be reasonably priced. Ticket prices will be capped at $99 for the doubleheader, which features Northeastern’s women’s hockey team in the opening game against UNH. However, if you want to see the game in the toasty warmth of one of the luxury boxes, you will have to shell out more than $99. Hey, you can’t have it all. [Boston Globe]

Northeastern involved in Winter Classic

August 12th, 2009

Hockey East announced today that a press conference will be held at Fenway Park on August 20 to announce the college component of the 2010 Winter Classic. Numerous media outlets including the Boston Herald and WEEI.com have confirmed that a Boston College-Boston University men’s game will be preceded by a New Hampshire-Northeastern women’s game. As of now the women are scheduled to play UNH on January 8 at Matthews Arena, one can assume with a fair amount of accuracy that indeed is the game that will be moved to Fenway Park.

No word yet on if seperate tickets will be needed for women’s and men’s game of if it’s a Beanpot-like single ticket event.
