Northwestern won the game 6-0, and the star of the day was starting pitcher Luke ... read more...

1060 West Addison, Chicago, Illinois – Wrigley Field is one of the most storied venues in all of sports. The bleacher seats, hand-turned scoreboard and the ivy covered outfield walls are some of Chicago’s most well known landmarks.

First, a bit of history: the match-ups of this year’s Final Four, Maryland vs. Syracuse and Northwestern vs. North Carolina, exactly replicate the pairings of the 2010 Final Four, when this year’s seniors were freshmen. Adding to the resemblance is the fact that, as in 2010, NU is coming off a regular-season loss to UNC. I don’t want to push this too far, because 2010 e... read more...

It had been a painfully long time coming for the Northwestern Wildcats. Northwestern had not won a bowl game since the 1948 season, with a Rose Bowl victory. Since then the purple cats had been 0-9 in postseason games before last season. Northwestern’s 34-20 Gator Bowl victory over Mississippi State was a fitting way to snap the drought after some close calls the previous ... read more...
