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!

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.
