...street. The windows are filled with bricks. But during a surprise search inside, Peterson's men find only a family claiming to know nothing about the Mahdi Army fighters coming and going from the place.

...award really represents Coach Stone’s mantra for us: We’re a blue-collar team that needs to bring a lunch pail and hard hat to every game.” While it may evoke images of Boston’s Big Dig rather than the rink at Bright Arena, this mantra has yielded its results on the ice.The Crimson has won all but two of its thirteen games with a loss coming early to No. 7 Saint Lawrence and a second Tuesday to UConn.
