Halftime visits

Nice to see former NSU athletic department employees and now Boston residents Brian Satter and his wife, the former Jamie Matherne, at halftime. She was marketing director and he was assistant SID several years ago, and got engaged as they decided to move to Boston. Now, they have an infant daughter and they made it out to the game today to see people in purple. Of course, first to spot them was the personable Dr. Chris Maggio, and Dr. Randy Webb stepped in to greet them as well.

Heard lots of tales of Boston-area adventures from the alumni travel group, too. They've had fun.

The Demons have picked up a first down to open the third quarter, but then a holding penalty and a sack have created a third-and-25 at their own 30. Northeastern is getting pressure on Germayne Edmond unlike the first two foes. The Huskies run a 3-4 defensive front and NSU is clearly having trouble making the right calls and picking up the rushers. Marshall Burton on to punt, and it's a roller that leaves NU at the 30. A running into the punter penalty will be declined and the Purple Swarm goes out looking for the game's first turnover.
