It has beautiful here in upstate NY this weekend so a lot of my NCAA path to the Frozen Four has been clips at the end of the night.  None the less, as I am watching the first weekend of the NCAA Division 1 Hockey Tournament, I am impressed by the number four seeds in two of the four regionals upsetting number one seeds last night.

I am just one year removed from having been at the Northeast Regional in Albany at the Times-Union Arena where my daughter’s university team played one of those number one seeds that was knocked off last night.

Today, as I am getting ready for popcorn and beer during tonight’s Bemidji State versus Notre Dame game, I am looking at what is up with the soon-to-graduate Purple Eagles.  

PurpleEagles.com shows that two of this year’s players are being reunited in Reading with a former teammate to play in the ECHL.  Go Rocco and Sullivan!
