Actually, he lives in New Jersey. I was a junior at BU that year, saw most
of BU's games that year (including the Beanpot Blizzard), and I watched
the Final on Scranton, PA's PBS station, channel 44. BU beat BC to win the
national championship. That BU team also included Olympians Dave Silk,
Mike Eruzione, and Jack O'Callahan. I forgot who BU beat on the semi-finals -
I think it was Wisconsin - but quotes from the BU players inferred that the
championship game was anti-climatic, since beating BC was becoming routine.
