OT - Great start to the UAlbany vs UVM game tonight

[CuseFaninVT]

Amazing job by both coaches. I’ll post the full story tomorrow.

Josh Speidel was a highly ranked recruit out of Indiana for uvm. He was in a very bad car accident, suffering a traumatic brain injury before graduating high school. But UVM honored his scholly, and this year he is graduating, despite a very long recovery and significant challenges.

Josh started on senior night, and was able to score his teams first bucket.

Some of the highlights are here.

This was outstanding to see. As a binghamton university alum, Vermont became the rival and it was always so crazy when I got to see Taylor Coppenrath and TJ Sorrentine (Orange fans hide) come to Binghamton and play some epic games while I was in school there. They had some incredible teams. Always respected their program and players and this adds to it. Great for that kid
