On Hockey Tournament Eve

Twas the night before tourney, when all through the bracket
Not a Terrier was stirring or making a racket
The seedings were picked by PairWise with care
Explaining why BU’s simply not there

(OK, seriously, I’m done)

The Eagles were nestled all snug in St. Louis
Ready to make the Tigers look like chop suey
No, Colorado College will give them a fight
But BC men’s hockey is more than alright

The West region sure looks loaded with talent
But BC’s effort will surely be gallant
A great senior class that knows how to win
Is ready to let another title quest begin

They’re led by a man, the college hockey pope
York can’t help but give Eagles fans hope
He’s been here before, he knows what to do
He’s beaten the Badgers and the Fighting Sioux

York leads his men to battle on ice
So Muse and his friends can win it all thrice
The road to St. Paul is difficult and long
But with a coach like this, how can we go wrong?

Now Whitney! Now Dumo! Now Gibbons! Now Alber!
On Cam! On Carey! On Arnold! On Kreider!
Control the puck and get off a good shot!
It might eventually lead to a Frozen Four slot!

The stage is set for this number one seed
They’ll give their best shot, and I know they’ll succeed
The Eagles are ready to show off their might
Happy tourney to all, and to all a good night!
