It's hard to make this point any better than Ed did. I AM suprised
we didn't get some more response from 'Nova, but our net is new.... ANYWAY
I, of course, agree. And what about this year? Well we were supposed to
really stink, at least that's what I figured. But Rollie (coach for life
as fas as I'm concerned), has pulled us out of our early season slump for
an incredible win over the Hoya's and a three-point ST. JOHN'S loss. Not
to shabby (who knows in a couple years...).

ps. We may have lost to ST JOHN's but it has been said
"Four on T's, Lose by Three, Watch out next time!"
