NEWARK -- They are called spring sports, but the adjective is a half-truth.


Article includes great photo of a player wearing a balaclava under his helmet!

Yeah, but when was the last time you saw a UCSB player with a balaclava?

Hey, we get cold weather...

I almost said that with a straight face!!!

Hope things improve for those in the Midwest and on the East Coast. Having endured many a Michigan winter I understand fully just how friggin' cold and miserable it can get.

Good luck.

They used to use Michigan's helmet design. Originality aside, I highly recommend a visit to Newark if you get the chance...one of my alltime favorite college towns.

Actually, this is definitely the first year they've used those particular shades of blue and yellow. Before they were alot darker.
