I just saw that UMass got spanked by St. Francis Xavier 7-2 last night,
including being outshot 32-19, in an exhibition.

Did anyone here see the game?  Was UMass resting its best players or
something?  People in the league are real high on UMass this year as
they return most of their team from last year and finished strong.
Hockey East coaches picked them 5th, some feel they can compete for
home ice. This result does not appear to support that!

Not to worry; four of UMass-Amherst's top five scorers in 2002-2003 are
back this year (Tim Turner graduated), but did not play against St.
Francis.
