COMMENTARY

1/5/2014 5:20PM - No doubt the highlight of the week was the nor'easter that pummeled the Northeast Thursday-Friday. Boston had the most snow from the storm and was also the highest scorer of the week with 73.5 points. They improved to 4-1, defeating struggling Syracuse. It wasn't easy for LaGuardia but they managed to scrape a win against Bridgeport and protecting their perfect record, keeping up with Worcester and Providence as the only cities without a loss who both won their respective matchups. Meanwhile, on the other hand, Islip got their first win of the season finally against Binghamton. It was about time they broke through... Islip is the 3rd best scorer in the Mid-Atlantic Conference despite no wins until this week. Another first time winner was Montpelier who upset divisional leader Burlington. Rutland and Willimantic are now the only two left without recording a win.

12/31/2013 5:30PM - Amazing we're only less than a day away from 2014. Where has 2013 gone? Haha. Anyways, the New Year will start out with a bang - a substantial snowstorm is in the works spanning a wide area of the Northeast. Places in Southern New England should see the most with areas there that could see more than a foot before it's said and done. Totals will be aided by the cold air out of Canada which will increase snow ratios and make for puffy snow. No doubt fireworks brewing for Week 5!
