BOWLING GREEN — It is not just the magic of the old barn.
It’s the team and the town filling it.
I dropped by Slater Family Ice Arena over the weekend, and I won’t pretend it felt like the old days. I wasn’t here for the roaring heights that crested with Bowling Green’s 1984 national championship.
But I know this: Something pretty cool is happening on Mercer Avenue.
Have you heard? The ice birds are the word.
Fresh off a four-point series against No. 15 St. Thomas — an overtime loss followed by a 3-1 victory — the young Falcons (15-7-6) are on the brink of the national polls.
