Could be a big weekend.

Men's hockey had an exciting come-from-behind win last night against BC. All they have to do to clinch their first regular season Hockey East title is win tonight at Conte Forum (7 p.m.). I'll be heading up to the game and can't wait.

You have to wonder how deflating that loss was for the Eagles last night. They more or less outplayed the Huskies for most of the game, and led with 26 seconds left. But tonight is BC's senior night, so you can bet they'll be coming out hard.

Men's basketball begans its quest to go dancing tonight, taking on eleventh seeded Towson, who upset sixth-seeded Drexel last night.


Although they were swept in a doubleheader today, the baseball team ended its Florida swing 7-3. Not bad at all.


If all goes to plan, this could be one of the biggest weekends in Husky sports in quite sometime.

It's back....

Well, it's been a while since the last post. An exciting fall season for Husky sports has carried over into an equally exciting winter season. The men's basketball team is off to a 6-1 start and showdown with 7-0 George Mason tomorrow at Matthews. The men's hockey team is tops in Hockey East and currently No. 5 in the latest USCHO.com national poll. Both women's hockey and women's basketball are off to solid starts as well. Hockey has already surpassed its win total from last season, while basketball is 3-2 in the CAA, its first winning mark ever in that conference.


With the blog starting back up, its probably a good time to reintroduce myself. My name is Nate Owen, and I'm a senior journalism major and also the sports editor of the Huntington News, the student's newspaper at Northeastern. I've covered the best and worst of Husky sports for much of my time here, and I hope to use my access to help give an inside look at what should be an exciting winter. This blog is actually fullfilling a requirement of my online journalism class, so look for more frequent updates (and maybe even some photos or video). With this being said, my first post will be a tad off topic, as we are required to blog on the Presidential Inauguration for class.
