New for the 2011-2012 seasons, the America East Daily Word, a collaboration between AmericaEast.com and AExtra, will recap the previous day's games and on goings on our nine campuses and provided links to previews, recaps, features and exclusive coverage.
We’ve
only got one game on the schedule tonight but it is no ordinary game.
The
Maine baseball team heads south to meet up with ACC foe Boston College at
Hadlock Field, home of the Boston Red Sox Double-A affiliate Portland Sea Dogs.
The two teams get underway at 6 p.m. this evening as the Black Bears make an
appearance in the southern part of the state.
This
is the first time Maine has played at Hadlock since the 1998 season when it
beat UMass by the score of 21-8.
The
Bangor Daily News ran a piece on the game tonight speaking with head coach
Steve Trimper about the game and what it means to play at a such a great venue.
“We’re
really excited to play in the southern part of the state,” Trimper told BDN’s
Pete Warner. “Playing an ACC school is going to be a great challenge. Coupled
with that, we’re playing at a great stadium in Hadlock Field.”

rest of Warner’s article, here

official preview.
