Yes, Eastern will now have hosted 5 FIVE semi-final games in 9 years when Maine comes calling... This will be Coach Best's first as the HC. One thing about Coach Best I've seen, he doesn't lie to himself. This has allowed him to improve from last season to this season and since the coaching fiasco at Weber. Yesterday, the Eagles were "coached down" to the level of UC Davis, fortunately; the players played up to their talent level and bailed it out. Coach Best won't make that mistake again.
Maine is hyper energetic with a 29 year old HC, a tough, big, fast D with a above average front 7 and two super DB's. Offensively, efficient and made just enough explosive plays to win games. Going to save the smack talk. Watched the whole Weber game and came away impressed. Looking for our Coaches to rise to the challenge.
BTW, Kettner Kupp played an amazing game yesterday. Way to go young man! McPherson is supernatural with a flare for the dramatic and all the backups were magnificent. I like our chances.
