| Last weekend's Roll Call took an unforunate turn when games were cancelled Saturday and Sunday due to field conditions. Unfortunately, this only gave BMo a chance to put up two official wins against Princeton and NC State. Check out the photos page for a slice of the action, brought to you by Rick Lebeau. |

Last week B-Mo kicked off the spring season with a bang traveling to Atlanta, GA for a rigorous winter training session culminating in the competitive debut of this year's team at Florida Warm-Up.
B-Mo went undefeated on Saturday beating Miami, USF, UF-B, and Iowa but were faced with two tough losses Sunday morning against UNC-W and Georgia which was enough to put them behind Iowa in their pool and keep them out of the play-in game. Brown finished up with a record of 5-2.
It's looking like a promising season. |

It's been awhile since the last post, but here's the short of it: B-Mo beat Williams for the first time this season to advance to the Final Four of the New England Regionals, but then lost to Dartmouth and UMass. B-Mo finished 5th and P-Funk upset MIT, 17-15, to finish 11th in the region.
Dartmouth and Harvard represented New England admirably. Both finished ahead of seed in pool play, and Harvard even won their pre-quarters game to finish in the top 8.
The UPA finals was a rematch of the title game from 2006: Florida vs. Wisconsin. The Hodags of Wisconsin avenged their loss from two years ago (and their loss to Florida at Centex) to win 15-9 and defend their national title from last year. Congrats Wisco! Check out more information here. Also, the Callahan Award went to Joe Kershner from Arizona.

Both teams start play at 9 on Saturday morning, with Brown-B starting out against top-seeded Harvard. If the seeding holds, Brown would face Williams in the second round, a rematch of last year's Regionals championship game.
The bracket is up here on the UPA website. Also, click here for directions to the fields.
Hope to see you all out there! We're going to need all the support we can get! |

B-Mo and P-Funk both headed to Regionals!
Congratulations to Brown's B-team, P-Funk! They just qualified for Regionals with a 15-4 win over WPI in a do-or-die game. Earlier in the day, they slugged it out for hard-fought wins against Conn College and UConn. This will be their first trip to Regionals since 2005.
B-Mo capped off their weekend with a win over Wesleyan for the sectional championship. All the results from this weekend can be found on the UPA website tournament page. The other team to qualify was URI, their first-ever bid to Regionals.
Special thanks this weekened to Andy's parents who brought us tons of Gatorade, snacks, and bagels to keep us going. To all the parents and fans who have watched us play this year and have been unbelievably supportive and caring, thanks so much!! We really really appreciate everything you do for us!
Three weeks to Regionals. Up and up! Hope to see everyone out there! |
