NESCAC

[Corazon]

My revised NESCAC rankings after week 1.

1. Amherst
2. Tufts
3. Williams
4. Middlebury
5. Bowdoin
6. Wesleyan
7. Conn
8. Trinity
9. Bates
10. Colby
11. Hamilton

Not sure how Amherst jumped Tufts already.

Amherst has always been my #1 choice, as well as that of the consensus NESCAC board (8 of 13 respondents picked them #1). Not sure how beating a decent Endicott team, an all-frosh Colby and a bad Plymouth State should vault Tufts over Amherst, who beat a bad New England College team and a good Bowdoin team.

Mr. Right, you're not seriously trying to start yet another negative karma war, are you?  I thought we had found a good middle ground of respecting each others views.

As a gesture of good faith, I am giving you a POSITIVE karma.

[Mr.Right]

National Champions BABY...Let's get Amherst to a Final 4 before WE VAULT THEM...LOL

[Mr.Right]

I have not given you a negative karma...I gave lastguy a positive karma today and that is it...Maybe someone is doing that to you to instigate you into thinking it was me...Lets not even start this again it wastes time and space

Ha ha. You're probably right. Thanks.  In total agreement!

[Corazon]

Exactly..I even expect Colby and Bates to get a rare draw or even a win against the top 6. Hamilton I think might go 0-9-1 this year and will not be a factor unless they get their sh*t together real soon.

Totally agree with this.

I'd love to hear the views of a Hamilton supporter.  Not sure I've seen any on these boards. 

Question is - does the distance (every other game is a brutal road trip) hurt or help the team?

It should hurt and help them..Interestingly I see two mid-week road games at Midd and Williams..Usually, they had one mid-week with these teams. That will definitely HURT

Congrats to Mark Sisco for winning Nescac Player of the Week after netting 3 goals in 2 games against Oneonta St and Trinity CT...Let's see if this gets Rashid fired up to match him and Williams will be rocking and rolling. I expect one if not both to net one today against Skidmore

[Mr.Right]

Skidmore catches Williams NAPPING on a long throw and excellent finished header...Set piece snoozer's on defensive end...Skidmore looks like they are UP for this one and better than I expected...

[Mr.Right]

Williams is playing like they thought they could wake up this morning, roll out of bed and get to the field by 4:30pm and WIN.....This sluggishness reminds me of a lot of games in 2014 and the 2nd half of their game v Trinity CT on Saturday...

[blooter442]

2-0 Skidmore with 2:37 left. Literally 13 seconds after I turned on the broadcast. Great finish - game, set, match.

[blooter442]

WOW...Trinity with a PK in OT against Westfield State and Gimand misses it. Oh dear.

Final
Skidmore (Liberty League)  - 2
Williams (NESCAC) -0

Anxiously awaiting the result of Middlebury - Green Mountain.

Green Mountain comes into the game having lost to Newbury 8-2, Norwich 12-0 and powerful St. Josephs (ME) 11-0.
