Wendell Chipman couldn't shake the negativity. Marshfield trailed Duxbury, 7-0, at the half, and the senior running back was two quarters from experiencing something no Ram player had ever endured: a high school career devoid of a Thanksgiving Day victory over the Dragons. Marshfield hadn't beaten Duxbury since 2002 (the teams tied in '03), when Chipman was in ...

WORCESTER -- Holy Cross senior cornerback Casey Gough was happy about yesterday's result -- a 28-21 win over Fordham at Fitton Field -- but not so pleased about letting the Rams back in a game the Crusaders controlled during the first half.

ST. LOUIS -- It seems most everyone on the St. Louis sideline figured out the Patriots were up to something when they lined up for a field goal midway through the third quarter. The problem was they couldn't get the message to the 11 Rams on the field at the time.

FOXBORO, Mass. -- The Patriots knew a day like this would come. The passing game would be taken away, almost totally, and they&#39;d need a workhorse back to win the game for them.

SWAMPSCOTT -- The Lynn Classical Rams used the ground, and the Swampscott Big Blue used the air. But in the end, it was a sensational 81-yard kickoff return by Nate Guy late in the fourth quarter that provided Classical with a 34-27 come-from-behind victory yesterday.

One minute and 17 seconds. That was how much time stood between Chelmsford and a home-opening victory over Acton-Boxboro. But the Colonials came up with a spectacular play to win, 15-14, last night and add to the Lions' frustration in this rivalry.

Duxbury's field hockey team controlled the game, outshooting Patriot League opponent Hanover, 12-1, yesterday. But with six minutes left, the game was still tied at 1 and Duxbury had to be wondering what more it could do.

The work of Bill Belichick's muted underlings was never more noticeable than during Sunday's 40-22 win over the St. Louis Rams, in these most challenging of times for these Patriots.

Dayton puts forth a spirited challenge, but the Colonials ultimately prevail, 81-73, to maintain their hold on first place in the Atlantic 10 conference.

Massachusetts made sure its first home game against a defending national champion was one to remember. The Minutemen stunned seventh-ranked Connecticut 61-59 on Rashaun Freeman&#39;s layup with 4.3 seconds to play Thursday night.

RICHMOND -- Northeastern senior Bennet Davis lingered at the edge of the Richmond Coliseum floor yesterday after the Huskies' 64-50 loss to Drexel in the quarterfinals of the Colonial Athletic Association tournament. Davis took his time thanking the few dozen students who had made the nearly 10-hour trek from Boston to cheer them on.

Four days after its biggest win of the season, Maryland nearly had a letdown against Virginia. Instead, the Terps eventually pull away for a 74-62 victory Friday night in Charlottesville.

The game was secondary. Sure, last night's 102-63 pounding of La Salle was important to the University of Massachusetts. The win pushed UMass's record to 22-7, the most victories the Minutemen have had since their Final Four record of 35-2 in 1995-96. It kept the Minutemen in a tie for first place with Xavier, a 72-62 winner over ...

They looked surprisingly strong against nonconference foes, but last night when the University of Massachusetts Minutemen opened Atlantic 10 play, they seemed, paradoxically, out of their league.

Steve Slaton was outstanding, as usual. No one, however, expected West Virginia's running game to be so Devine. Slaton ran for 137 yards and three touchdowns, Noel Devine amassed 125 yards on his first three carries, and No. 4 West Virginia cruised past Maryland 31-14 Thursday night.
