Part of that decline stemmed from a laundry list of injuries on both sides of the ball, sidelining several key starters who helped fuel the Minutemen’s (5-5, 2-4 Mid-American Conference) historic start. Among them, William “Pop” Watson III’s ankle sprain was the most notable, holding the Springfield, Mass., native out of two games following the opening stretch.
