Congrats Devils...great game, it was a shocker. My son played 4 years under Cinterino and if you told me this would happen some day, I would say you were insane. Again congrats on the biggest win in NEC and CCSU history...

I CANT EVEN TELL YOU HOW PROUD THE NEC IS OF YOU GUYS.....now if the Danes can turn it around and take down Delaware...maybe the winner of our tilt in two weeks can get a bid to the playoffs.

I was just hoping for respect...and CCSU does JUST THAT! The best win in CCSU and NEC history. If the Devils continue like this...they should get an at large NCAA bid later this year!

GO BLUE!!!!

A great great win no question about it. Greatest in CCSU history? Hold on, some people can still argue that beating Maine 6-3 back in 1973 was the greatest given the circumstances back then, it was the first time back in 1973 that the Blue Devils, a D11 school ever beat a large school. Remember that we beat Colgate last year and that was a biggie. This team has a chance to win 10-11 games if they stay healthy. Fire Up!

The 1954 win over New Haven State [Southern Conn. St.] was also big :)

No question, tonight's win is now the biggest.

Congratulations on a great win... My wife and I were at the game and the win was not a "fluke", accident, or luck... Our Eagles just got outplayed tonight.

For what it's worth your guys sure "burst our bubbles", but at least we lost to a quality team led by one of our own ex-GSU Coaches..

Best Wishes for a continued great season..

Jesse & JoAnn Pomeroy

A very respectfull note from Mr. and Ms. Pomeroy. You folks are a class act!

You have to understand what we go through up here. CCSU is in the media shadows of the Univ. of CT, so much so that there are people here who don't even know CCSU plays at the D-1 level even though our mens basketball team made two respectable NCAA appearences and our womens soccer team made at least three, not to mention our baseball team. This win was important to CCSU in many ways. For one, it makes people who think they are sports fans here in CT realize that CCSU is the real deal.

Again...thanks for the gracious note and I wish success for the GSU Eagles as well (unless we meet in the NCAA's of course), and offer my condolances for the loss of your former coach.

There's also a Gandhi quote:

First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.

The NEC is now at stage four.
