Time For The Crimson Creatures To "Cowboy Up"

Two seasons ago the University of Denver opened their season with back to back losses to the University of Maine in Orono. One of my most vivid memories of that weekend was hundreds of Maine students huddling under the bleachers of their football stadium practicing their cheers an hour before the game. I knew right then - DU was in trouble.

The Maine Student Section was loud and raucous and played a part in Maine's 5-1 and 4-2 victories over DU.

I wasn't the only one who noticed the Maine Students. In a Rocky Mountain News interview last season, both Peter Mannino and Glenn Fisher both mentioned that, "Maine was one of the toughest places to play in college hockey."

Now its our turn. Lets "Bring It" this weekend. Be loud, be proud and Lets Go DU.

DU is a hockey school and our student section should reflect that. Lets fill the stands 10 minutes BEFORE the first period, not 10 minutes into it. We did a pretty good job and were pretty loud against Maine, lets do it again!
