From: Mike Machnik <[log in to unmask]> Subject: Re: Best college teams ever The offense was not necessarily any better than it has been in years prior (Fusco, MacDonald, Bourbeau) or since (Ciavaglia, Donato, Vukonich). But the defense was better, there was more depth, and most importantly, if you hit Lane, Melrose cleaned your clock. Lane may have seen stars, but you saw supernovas. ========================================================== I often wondered if the anticipation of having your clocked cleaned by Melrose was almost as bad as actually being hit by Kevin! Once that capacity crowd at Bright starting chanting "Mel-rose!", "Mel-rose!", it had to feel like the Grim Reaper was on his way to your front door. ************************************************************************** Steve Weisfeldt Go River Hawks!!!!!!!!
