-The 2010 Odd/Even Alumni Game was yet another tremendous success this year. Over 60 alums attended from the Class of 1978 through 2010. The Odd Team won again, and the game was followed by dinner and drinks in the Press Box at LaValle Stadium, where the Alumni watched the Varsity defeat Hartford University 15-12.

The Alumni Organization raised over $2500 for the program, the Organization's most successful Alumni Game to date. The University's official press release is here: http://www.goseawolves.org/sports/paws/spec-rel/041210aaa.html

Special thanks: to Rob Emmerich for his efforts every year; to Mike Poch '05 for his assistance; to Jeff Capri '89 and John Dobias '02 for goaltending the entire game; and to Rich Misiano '90 and Dennis Nafte '03 for their attendance and generosity. Play of the Game goes to Marc Opisso '78 of the Even squad for converting a doorstep feed on the crease for a buzzer-beating goal.
