The fourth-seeded Mustangs, who upset the top-ranked and host UNB Varsity Reds 3-2 in Saturday's semifinal, came up just a goal short in Sunday's championship, dropping a 4-3 OT decision to the second-ranked Redmen.

RAGBIR, Rhoda March 17th, 2007 They say there is a reason, They say that time will heal, But neither time nor reason Will change the way we feel. For no one knows the heartache, That lies behind our smiles, No one knows how many times, We have broken down and cried. We want to tell you, Something so there won't be any doubt, You're so wonderful to think of, But so hard to be without.
