knowledge Posted October 23, 2005 Share Posted October 23, 2005 Student dies after goal post pulled down in Morris <{POST_SNAPBACK}> not meant to be a joke but they don't normally expect to have to grease the uprights in Morris. i guess when this happens you don't wonder why security is involved a lot.

SiouxMeNow Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 so what was the deal? As I recall...Morris had lost like 30+ straight in the Northern Sun - then dropped to DIII...thats the last I heard of them...was this a big losing streak snapping game? (I'm asking this seriously because that hasn't been mentioned in the news stories - why were they tearing down the goalposts? ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
