RE: Something exciting to think about....
Thanks Acer, I was a die-hard Lunatic from 2006-2010, attending every game possible, even when we went 8-30 or whatever it was, and were one of the worst teams in college hockey/CCHA. I have never stopped supporting this team and never will, seeing this team in the Joe last year and in the NCAA tourney was incredible! I got to attend game 1 of the FSU playoff series last year, in which the Broncos lost 3-1 :\ I then had to come back to Houston, wish I could have stayed for games 2 and 3, especially 3 with Campbell's OT winner. Out of my four years being a student at WMU, the best hockey years were in 2006, (Szczechura, Lovechio) we were a top 4 team, finished in 4th, then choked against UAF at home in the first round of the CCHA playoffs in 3 games. Then in 2009, when we beat LSSU in 3 games in the first round of the CCHA playoffs at home, the year that Riley Gill stole so many games where he would stop 50 and we would tie Miami 1-1, also that year that Pat Galivan won the CCHA regular season scoring title.
I agree with Lawson being the best student section and atmosphere in all of college hockey. My senior year in high school I took a college visit up to WMU, I had already gotten in, and I knew we had a D1 CCHA college hockey team, and my first ever game I went to the Broncos played Notre Dame, it was a packed house, saw the student section and I was sold, not just on this basis, but the campus had such an awesome feeling, everything was accessable, and I felt really at home at WMU. (I feel like a recruit) LOL
Anyways, Ive seen Bronco hockey during the bad times and now the good times, and its just so awesome to see this team ranked in the top 10 in the country, and no longer a CCHA doormat
