The April first matchup of these two teams seem to be the next big game for our division. So whos got who and whats the spread? What makes or breaks each team in this game?

Need to include UV by a blowout. UVSC wins this one by 8-10 goals

Wow grinder pete UVSC by 8+ goals? Didnt Montana only lose to UVSC by 3? Then UNC beats Montana St. by 1 so technically that would mean UNC loses by 2 but doesnt this seem like it can go etheir way but doesn't seem like it can be a blow out. Why you say a blow out?

I know when I watched them it was very early in the season, but UNC was playing pretty competitively against Claremont and San Diego. In both of those games they kept the point spread fairly low through the first half of the game. In the month since, they've had a chance to work on their weaknesses as evidenced by their performance against Montana State. Even though they will probably lose in their matchup with UVSC I think the difference will be much lower than many anticipate.

Good Luck to the Bears in their upcoming game.

I think UNC is in the best spot they can be in, under dog and playing well with momentum. Everybody always expect UVSC to win so what if they lose to UNC? They have the pressure UNC just has to play how they have been and it seems like they can play along side and if not beat UVSC. When we played UVSC Bateman and Simmons were there offense, it seems like now they have a little more offense but between shutting down Bateman and Simmons UNC will have their hands full but that seems like a good start. UNC def. is in this game from the start and is their game to lose or win.

The only thing that UNC has going against them is the wyoming game where it was 11-5. I expected a bigger spread but that means WYO is growing. Any news on that game like a summary or storyline of what it was like?

I am not sure what you are saying here. Montana and Montana State are two different teams. And the Montana score was 5. But what do I know.

It all makes sense now. I would still be surprised if UVSC doesn't blow them out.

during the wyoming game it was clear that the pokes have improved. during this game the focus was more on possesing the ball we had it in our zone for a large majority of the game. Unc dominated the pace and play of the game the score is not a good indicator or this game.

Here is the thing... you can't stop Bateman and you can't stop Simmons. Now the real problem for other teams is that the rest of the team has come together, so there are alot more weapons than just those two, but you still can't stop Bateman and Simmons. I know there is a UNC D-pole reading this right now thinking..."Ill stop them," well sorry bud... you can't.

Grinder Pete is a very wise man, he has been around the game for a very long time. I don't know as much as he does, but I'll agree with him, this will be a statement game for UVSC... get ready for a blow out!!!

That's a bold statement, I saw both in action and bateman is def. a force to be reckoned with Simmons as well. But to say no one in RMLC can stop them or they can't be stopped is bold bold statement and kinda insulting to our league poles I would say. I don't play pole so I can't talk and our team unfortanantly did not stop them but with there number on the radar now it's once again a bold statement.
I love playing UVSC and Kevin is always a great host and coach to play against. I'm just hoping this is a close game and gives the league a reason to talk. Whoever knows the results of this game please post asap lol.
Are there any other games you guys think are pivitol for the divison B as a whole? Or for a team?

Also I was wondering why Bateman left BYU in the first place?
