It was an epic moment, one of the many, in fact, that The Royal Hunt...
This is the Yardlings first away game. and M.I.T.'s unusually narrow field may pose a slight problem to the high-powered Crimson offense, which scored its last 15 goals in two games. Getchel is still unsure of his starting line-up and hopes to get a look at his reserves today...
