Northeastern University kicked off the 10th annual Clinton Global Initiative University (CGI U) Friday with speeches from former U.S. President Bill Clinton, Northeastern President Joseph E. Aoun and other distinguished guests.

Confidence came in handy over the weekend as the Northeastern women battled to five sets against James Madison and Elon. But it also showed through their sure-handed defeat of William & Mary on Thursday.
Six different Huskies scored in the team’s 8-1 bulldozing of Hofstra. The eight goals set a record for the most scored in Colonial Athletic Association (CAA) conference play in program history, while the seven-goal deficit in the CAA game ties the team’s 2006 record.
“We all know it has been a very difficult season,” head coach Chris Gbandi said. “But I think one win can change all that. You get a win in conference and all of a sudden morale is very high. We still have a chance to make it into the conference tournament, and right now that is our goal.”
Prior to the game, the Huskies anticipated a high level of intensity, as it was the second game of a home-and-home series against their Hockey East foe and school rival. The game followed a theme of resiliency and firsts for NU, as four different players recorded either their first goals of the season or the first of their careers.
