CCIW

[Mr. Ypsi]

North Park set a CCIW record by trouncing Mount Mary (WI) College, 18-0. Game story  Alyssa Jacobson led the charge with five goals. 

Perhaps at 1-6 going in, they needed a boost and can be forgiven, but as a coach I was always totally embarassed to beat a team by more than 7 or 8 goals.  Unless the last 10 goals were scored by players who otherwise rarely see the field, I think this win was more shameful than something to brag about.

Conference tournament starts tonight with Augie at Wheaton at 7 PM, and Carthage at Ill. Wesleyan tomorrow.

Wheaton beat Augie 3-0 in conference play, although it was 0-0 until the 66th minute.  Unfortunately, I fear Augie loses again tonight.

Carthage beat IWU 1-0 in conference play and I think it will happen again tomorrow.

[Jim Matson]

I'll be at the Augustana/Wheaton match tonight.  Should be a good one.

As suspected, Wheaton won 2-1 last night.  Wheaton controlled possession as Augie played low pressure (almost no pressure).  It looked like it might work as Augie went up 1-0 in the first five minutes.  But alas, it was not to be.  Wheaton tied it shortly after, and put in the winner in the second half.

I don't know if you saw the winning goal the same as I, but it seemed like a lucky bounce for Wheaton.  Lee made a nice turn at the top of the 18, but seemed to almost whiff on a shot.  The result rolled right to the feet of Jami Hermann who had a tap in for the game winner.  I know the Wheaton faithful will maintain that was a pass from Lee, but I don't think so.  Either way, the ball found the back of the net and Wheaton advances.

Augie had a chance to tie in the final minutes, but the shot by Coulson hit side netting.  Augie has to hope for a Pool C bid now.

[Jim Matson]

I didn't have a good angle on the Lee pass/shot.  From the box, it seemed like a pass. 

Two big injuries for Wheaton in the match. 

[Mr. Ypsi]

The CCIW website says IWU 1, Wheaton 0 in tonite's tourney game.  Am I correct in assuming they goofed, and IWU actually downed Carthage?

(They do list the upcoming final as being Wheaton vs. IWU.)

[Jim Matson]

Yes, they goofed.

Wheaton beats Illinois Wesleyan 1-0 on a goal by Taryne Lee.

[Jim Matson]

Yet again, the Titans play tight defense against Wheaton.  I thought they would have had a stronger chance playing a  more balanced game. 

[Mr. Ypsi]

Any pool C bids in the CCIW's future?

Aside from AQ Wheaton, 3 pretty impressive overall records, the least impressive being regular-season champ IWU.

Remember who 4 of those loses were to:  Wash U, Chicago, Carthage and Wheaton.  Three of those teams are highly ranked.  The two early loses are hurting them, but the remainder of the season was impressive.
