Game 20: UMD at Clarkson

POTSDAM, N.Y. -- If you've never been to this part of the world, there is an easy comparison I can make for you.

It's like Houghton in a way. These are small towns and small schools and proud Division I programs that haven't seen the same kind of success they used to have.

Michigan Tech's past is more pronounced than Clarkson, their times as of late much harder. But there are similarities to the towns.

That might not be conducive to tourism, but we're not here to sightsee.

Lines?

Bruce, will there be a Luke McManus sighting this year or is he being red-shirted?

The goal is to keep McManus as a redshirt, we will see what happens with Olsen being gone.
