    His own end is why he hasn't played more.

      So the loss to Northeastern doesn't look quite as bad anymore. Still displeased with the first ten minutes and some of the undisciplined penalties by the likes of upperclassmen like Collins (that slashing penalty away from puck near NU bench). I think goaltending and defense will carry this team in the long run. I'm excited to see Cronin and Robertson play more once they get acclimated to college better. I also liked how Mansfield, Heffernan, Gould, Bly and Myers have played in first two games. Collins and Toomey need to step up their play.

              Very sad news indeed. Coach Serino was always very nice to me and my family in our time as BLC members. Like everyone, he had his shortcomings, but I will always respect him. RIP Coach Serino.

                He was a great man and friend to many. Helped more local kids than anyone I have ever known. His wake will be one of the most attended on the north shore in many years..

                Chris SerinoClass of 1971

                Induction Class of 2006
                Baseball
                Football
                Ice Hockey (M)



                Chris Serino was a three sport athlete for AIC from 1968-71, lettering in baseball, football and men’s ice hockey. While he started in football as a quarterback and defensive back and in hockey as a wing, Serino earned his highest acclaim on the diamond. As a senior in 1971, he posted a batting average of .472, tops in the College Division that season and still the school record for single season batting average. That mark also made him the first batter in school history to reach the vaunted .400 mark. He earned Topps All-America honors and was named the recipient of the President's Cup in 1971, awarded to the outstanding senior athlete at AIC.

                After graduation Serino was named the head hockey coach at Saugus (Mass.) High School, a post he held for 12 seasons. From there he went on to Northfield Mount Hermon School for six years, earning New England Prep Coach of the Year accolades. Serino then served a nine-year stint (1989-98) as associate head hockey coach and head baseball coach at the University of New Hampshire, helping guide the Wildcats to six NCAA tournament appearances, including a Frozen Four appearance in 1997 when the team won a school-record 26 games.

                He then went on to become head hockey coach at Merrimack College from 1999-2005 and served as that school's athletic director for three years. He is now the Director of Athletics at Malden Catholic High School.

                      Tough news. Hokydad, I am sure you and some people around you are seriously bumming about this news. Condolences.

                      At least no one will accuse you of being Chris Serino anymore.

                      The fact that you BC fans revel in the superiority of your team in an admittedly weak league leads me to believe you will be more sorely disappointed when the end comes than we will.

                            Small, slow, unskilled, rookie goaltenders, and can only skate counter-clockwise.

                            Rest your first two lines. Practice using your opposite shooting hand. Give your fourth string goalie a look. Spend all night out on your hotel veranda looking for Russia. Hope this helps. And good luck against UAA.

                            I do hope your boys have a good time and a memorable trip. These long early season trips to Alaska are often mentioned as being pretty good for building team unity.

                            …for the referees, not so much.

                              a serious answer for a serious question

                              UAA comin off worst season marred by departures starting midway through last year, is led by Junior Matt Bailey & Senior Jordan Kwas on there top line, Top Defenseman are Sophomores Austin Coldwell & Derek Docken, Chris Kamal will start against UND tonight so i'm guessing you all will see Gunderson tomorrow. Good Luck against UAF & UAA this weekend

                                Well THAT was an ugly weekend. 9 goals given up, 4 PP and 2 shorties. I'm guessing this goalie rotation idea will go away soon as Marrota looks much steadier (readier?) than Tirronen (2 games played and 3 goals given up in the 1st period of each! Yikes!).
