Dave's not kidding.  In the three games played between BU and UML this
year, the teams scored a total of 45 goals - an avg of exactly 15 a game.
 
Along the same lines, allow me to give an example of why I am proud of
a Merrimack team that finished 7th and went out in the first round.

You cannot ask for more than that in seven games against the league
co-champions.
 
In fact, NO team in DivI posted a lower avg vs BU than Merrimack did.
Only Princeton (2.00 in 1 game) posted a lower avg vs Maine than
Merrimack did.
 
Before Dave asks, I won't be putting up the rankings vs Lowell. :-)
