Stephen Cooper next Black Bear to face Patriots

Former Maine linebacker Stephen Cooper had a game-high 15 tackles in the San Diego Chargers 28-24 upset over the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.

Cooper, who played at Maine from 1999-2002, will be the second former Black Bear in a week to try and upend the New England Patriots.

Montell Owens, who plays on special teams for the Jacksonville Jaguars, had three tackles in his team's loss to the Patriots on Saturday night.

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.
