Jovan Belcher Honored

Defensive end Jovan Belcher was named to the 2007 New England Football Writers Association FCS All-Star Team. Belcher was also named to the All-CAA First-Team two weeks ago.

Belcher, a junior, finished with a career-high 85 tackles this season (second most on the team), recorded 17 tackles for loss and 10 sacks.

He is one of just seven players in program history to register at least 10 sacks in a season.

about Jenn and this blog

Jenn covers the University of Maine for the Portland Press Herald/Maine Sunday Telegram.

A former Portland Pirates beat writer who has covered two winter Olympics for the paper, she will tackle the Maine beat for a fourth year this season.

She has the empty coffee cups, and turnpike mileage receipts littering her
excellent-gas-mileage
Honda Civic to prove it.

Though she is a graduate of rival New Hampshire, she almost never thinks of that 1999 hockey game anymore.
