I think the asst ref made the call of spearing?? his hand was up before
Bunyons. Wasn't sure about the spear but it was plainly obvious that Mudryk
was obsructing Levielle from blue line to blue line, keeping him from
getting to the play. I thought NUs whole game plan was obstrucion and if the
game was played by octobers rules, NU would have been in the box for the
whole game.

 Does anyone know  a contact in the NCAA so I can get clarification on the
obstruction rules. I just want to invite them to watch a tape of satursday
game. I already wrote to HE, it will interesting to see if they reply. I
even waited till last night to do it so I wouldn't be so POed :) and they
might actually read it.

 Not in the 2nd and 3rd periods of saturdays game. They shut down and
protected the lead, let NU push them around, didn't protect Jimmy and never
ever got to the net until after NU tied them up and then they started to
play again. Same ol same ol

You would give Bunyon a C, I can see grade inflation has hit Orono :):) I'd
have escorted him off campus never to return:)
