Paul Mayberry

Paul Mayberry was a 1990 first team 1-AA All American offensive lineman for the UMass football team and went on to teach/coach/mentor countless youths. He is one of the most popular teachers at Waltham High School, as three of my kids can attest. He is currently dealing with some medical issues. I a...

Re: Game 3: Harvard @ Garber @ 1 on 2/22

Observations from the untrained eye: Harvard's goalie was spectacular in the first half. The kid is tall (6-3) and quick. UMass had some great shots but he made some sharp saves. Harvard also played tough D, especially in the first half. UMass' goalie sometimes looked like the freshman he is, but he...

Re: Game 2: 2/25 @ 1 PM @ #12 Ohio State

Maybe a bit late, but here's the full game. Couldn't find highlights anywhere. One camera angle a long way and high above from the field, but better than nothing.

Re: Game 3: 2/23 @ Harvard @ 1 (ESPN+)

No idea who this guy is, but here's some highlights from yesterday. I'd link to the video on the Harvard athletics website, but it only shows the Crimson goals.

UMass grad to be proud of ...

I was listening to "Only a Game" on NPR on my way to the grocery store yesterday and they had this pretty interesting piece on the new commissioner of the West Coast Conference, the first Latina to be named commissioner of an NCAA D1 conference. My ears perked up when they said she went to...

Re: Women's Lax 2018

HUGE showdown with Richmond this weekend, for A10 crown. If they want to do well in the post season they need to bring in tougher opponents- especially at the end of the year. Good luck to the Minutewomen (my guess is they do not want to be called the lady Gorillas)!!! Well, they did play the No. 2 ...

Re: Game 12 - Towson visits UMASS - April 14th

Finally made it out for my annual game. best weather of the spring and not a very entertaining game (watching Towson pass it around the horn for 2 minutes every possession), but the good guys showed their usual resilience and won so my son and I had a great time. Outscored them 7-1 in second half. E...

Re: 2018 Tentative Schedule

Seems Tyler Bogart suffered a jaw injury that ended his lacrosse career (or at least "indefinitely removed me from lacrosse" as he put it.) Too bad, but one's long-term health must always come first. I wish him nothing but the best. Let's all support his music career the same we we support...

I am not a huge hockey fan, and more of a lurker on this forum. But I thought I recognized this guy's name. http://www.bostonglobe.com/metro/regionals/west/2017/12/15/for-framingham-coach-skaters-about-controlling-controllable/BPq4c82nF0sKBN9ZPLqOrJ/story.html?camp=bg%3Abrief%3Arss%3Afeedly&rss_...

Re: Fall Ball and other news

Why isn't Tyler Bogart on the 2018 roster? Wouldn't he have been a junior this year? Seems like a big loss if he's no longer with the program.

Re: Game 14: CAA Playoffs Thurs. 5/4 vs. Hofstra @ 7:30

I too have watched that last shot about 50 times. What a great turnaround for this team after a rough start to the season. Lots of solid young talent too.
Go Gorillas!
Beat Towson!

Re: It appears that we have clinched a CAA playoff spot

The big shocker in the CAA was Drexel coming back from a 10-3 deficit to beat No. 2 Hoftsra 13-12, the Pride's first loss of the season. UMass is at Hoftsra next week.

Re: Game 11: Fairfield @ Garber @ 1

Finally made it out to a game after a couple previous tries this season collapsed at the last minute for whatever reason. Had a great time of course. UMass took a 4-1 lead after 1 and I never got the feeling they were in danger after that. Hard to judge the team, because Fairfield is not that good (...
