Re: All Things Denver XXXVII
Honestly, if Montgomery can't get the team ready for the CC series, and if a bottom of the barrel CC sweeps DU, then DU deserves to finish mid-pack and out of the tournament. Montgomery is right to take the blame for the loss. DU came out slow and was completely outworked by CC on Friday. Gotta give credit to Owens--he gets his teams better prepared for the DU-CC rivalry than the DU coaches do.
DU can always pull some magic by winning their league tournament and getting on a run, backed by excellent goaltending and a healthy LaLeggia. But at that is extremely wishful thinking at this point. DU ski and lacrosse teams much more likely to do something good this season. Hopefully hockey can win a few games, make some noise, and go into next season with something to build on.
