Rick Neuheisel, on what it was like for the Bruins to discover they were travelling to Washington, D.C.:
“When we received our bid, when we finally knew Navy finished their job – by the way, thank you Navy – it was a lot of fun to talk to our team about visiting D.C. Realzing how few had been to our national capital. There were a number of them walking two blocks to see the White House, and you could see the big look in their eyes. This city makes you proud to be an American.”
