I did get the Buffalo stuff. Just seems like a miss not to at least have an email encouraging fans to go to Merrimack even if we don’t have any events planned by Alumni Relations. Maybe it’s coming.

I've been like Paul Revere alerting people on Crossports this is a likely sell out. HC should send an email to the whole list urging people to get tickets now.

No apology needed. Thanks for the explanation. Your point is a good one. With limited seats, it could be helpful to have HC fans make up a good portion of that crowd. Has HC sent out any marketing about the game to encourage a strong HC crowd? I don’t think I’ve seen any but I may not be on all the right lists. Yes. I received one on Saturday. Not sure which “list” resulted in this, however. I am thinking season ticket holder list.

As a season ticket holder, and other pieces, I still get very little communication

OK, the season starts in one week at Merrimack. Will we have a countdown clock on the HC site this week?

Tailgating passes for Merrimack are on sale on the website. Does anyone know if there is any non-tailgating parking on campus, or do you need to purchase a parking pass to park on game day?

I spoke to Merrimack ticketing about that very subject as I told them since I don’t tailgate, I sure didn’t want to pay $30 to park in lot M.
I was assured that lot M is the only lot you have to pay for and “all other lots the parking is free.”

I had an image in my mind of athletic fields right on the Merrimack River and looked for a photo for anyone who has a boat to save on parking. Turns out I was mixing up Merrimack and UMass Lowell. So no water route to save on parking.

Does anyone have a sense who will start at QB for Merrimack?
They have 7 QBs on the roster, 5 sophs and 2 freshmen.
The guy who hurt us last year, Westin Elliot, was a graduate student and is gone.

He might have a better OL at Merrimack?

Definitely a better coach. The UConn guy did well during his first tenure but spent months before last season’s opener gloating about how strong his team had become after a year in the weight room, only to get pushed around by an FCS team.

Randy Edsall may have been the most unlikeable guy in college football, which was quite an accomplishment.

Thanks, that was a great video! Loved the "Hot tub boat". Games at Husky Stadium are a lot of fun!

There'd be a short walk at the end, but a fun trip would be a boat ride from NYC up the Hudson to West Point.

It is a great day, but the hike uphill from the river to the stadium is hardly a short walk. IMHO...take the bus!

No one on a Holy Cross message board gives a flying —— what UNH drew for any soccer game ever. Don’t go away mad. Just go away. Well, UNH is a soccer school right now with a preseason ranking of number 8 in the country and on national TV this week. I wonder the last time HC had a regular season game broadcasted in any sport on an ESPN TV Network. Lost 2-1 to Maryland.

Here's a picture of sailgating on game day at West Point.🙂 www.battlefields.org/learn/articles/west-pointThe British tried the water route but could never overcome "Fortress West Point." We have great historic league mates in the PL even if not for football currently.
