Great article! I know how hard many of us worked in 2008-09 to save the program. Reading this made all that hard work worth it.

I was a senior in 2008-09 and attended meetings and helped organized students on campus to place signs and encouraged them to write to President Cartwright and the trustees. I also submitted a letter to Bucci in 2009 which he published on his blog, you can read it here:

It's taken 5 years! Well worth the wait! The recruiting is getting better and better. Our Freshman class is 3rd in the nation in scoring with no one ringer of a player! That is incredible! BU is first but most of it is coming from their one, great freshman who will likely be gone sooner than later. BG is back, baby!

We were inspired by this great article and how far the program has come since 2008. It inspired us to create this new design for our BGSU hockey collection. It is a great comeback story and awesome to see the program soaring high again. Hope all the Falcon Faithful like it. Roll Along!
