This should be a good game!
I am getting a 404 error when I try to access the match

Anyone know how much the ticket is? I know its $5 for regular season game but haven't been to wheaton for playoff games recently. If it's less than $7.00 I might go. Only couple hrs drive and i wanna see noah duke it out with jonas.

Wow! Wheaton's keeper must have time traveled ahead and came back to stop those first 2 goals in the shootout. He looked like he knew exactly where they were going from the get go. Hopefully they don't throw Wheaton into the Loras pool to early, I want to see these two meet in the Sweet 16.

Couldn't be more pleased to see Wheaton send North Park's annoying fans home empty handed. The CCIW is always more entertaining when the Thunder are playing well and not struggling like the previous few years.

Are you talking about the only soccer fans in d3soccer, even more so in the CCIW? Wheaton had a good numbers of people coming out today which made the game more fun to watch. I wish more schools took after the great supporter tradition from NPU, and less people complaining about them bringing some heat and excitement to the games.

North Park's "annoying fans"? If any team is bringing fans to D3 soccer games they should be getting praise... North Park fans are lively which adds to the excitement of the match from a fan and player perspective. I think NPU gets an at-large bid into the tournament based on their regular season results. Hopefully their fans travel well.

North Park v Washington U. At Loras I believe.

Saldner F.F. · November 05, 2012, 09:09:58 PM

I believe, and hope that NP will have a pretty good group of fans driving out to Dubeque for the game vs Washington. What do you think about North Park and Wheatons chances to do well in the tournament? Personally I believe that North Park has had a great run the last part of the season and has a great chance of at least winning the first round. Loras in the second round will probably be a more difficult game to win but I do believe that on a good day, the Vikings can beat any team.

Ohio Wesleyan fan here, looking forward to some excitement this weekend @ Wheaton. Unfortunately, however, i will not be able to attend in-person, so am wondering about video for the matches...

Does Wheaton usually stream games? How is the quality? Anyone know if they are planning to do it for all the NCAA tourney games at the site, or just the matches Wheaton is participating in? Nothing on the Wheaton site so far, that i can find...

Any help is appreciated!

augie77 · November 06, 2012, 03:51:56 PM

Your best bet for now is to keep checking the Wheaton web site. Yes, the Wheaton games will definitely be live streamed from the campus tv station, WETN. I'm not sure about the other games, but the web site will hopefully answer that question in the next day or so.

OhioSocYea · November 06, 2012, 04:43:26 PM

Great, thanks Augie! Much appreciated.

keeker · November 06, 2012, 04:53:01 PM

Yeah, forgot to thank you augie for answering ticket price question. Wow, what a game that was. That freshman golz is something else. Runs in the family. Was disappointed that i didnt get to see hollingswaorth. North park fans are hilarious and probably one of the best.

And I couldn't be more pleased that Dave DiTomasso's crew of Elmhurst leg-breakers are at home right now putting away their brass knuckles after a 1-6 CCIW campaign -- a 1-6 campaign that included a 2-0 loss to Millikin, for crying out loud.

Ryan Seager did a fantastic job in the shootout, and I tip my hat to him. But I'm on record as hating shootouts. Soccer is the only sport in the world in which the outcome can be settled in a format different than that of the game itself. Does basketball eschew overtime by having the two teams play a game of H-O-R-S-E to settle the outcome? Does baseball say "no" to extra innings, and instead have the two teams do a Home Run Derby to determine the winner?

And, yeah, I'd be saying the same thing if NPU had beaten Wheaton in the shootout. I just wouldn't be saying it as loudly.

Optimism must be tempered. NPU's been a very strong regular-season outfit in recent years, but the postseason has been another matter. The Vikings are only 1-4 in the tournament over the past decade. They have to focus exclusively on Wash U, because beating the Bears will be more than enough of a task to hold their attention. As for Loras ... well, let's just say that NPU has yet to face a foe in Loras's category this season.

blue_jays · November 06, 2012, 10:02:37 PM

Meh, I stand by my statement. I don't like North Park's student fans, whom I find quite boorish. I also find their players to be whiners, so I have no problem rooting against them. NPU guys liked Sager can vehemently disagree all they want, but that's my opinion and they can have theirs. And as I've stated before, I'm no fan of DiTomasso and his antics.
As an aside, I don't see Loras losing until the Elite 8 or later. Wheaton will have their hands full with Ohio Wesleyan, even with the home field.
