Rebounding Star Won’t See Action
St Michael’s College head coach Eddie Markey explains 6-7 freshman Bob Tetreault’s ineligibility will sideline him this season. Tetreault, a top rebounder from Chicopee Falls, Mass., would have boosted the Knights’ front line and running game, but a ECAC ruling limits his eligibility after he completed 12 hours of course work. Markey says the team must adapt and will still push to improve with Cragan and the remaining lineup as they begin the 24 game schedule on December 1 at Bridgeport Sac ret Heart University.
