[Bucket]

Midd defeats Trinity 1-0 in a game that saw 7 SOG and about 40 fouls...Sounds about right...The game must have had no flow and glad I missed that one...Trinity with only 2 SOG and at 3-9-1(1-7-1) they are the 1st team to be officially eliminated.

Plus 3 yellow cards and an on-field skirmish in the game's final minute.

Game could have easily been 3-0, as Bantam goalie made a couple of spectacular saves on Goulart and Potter lasers coming off set pieces.

Bowdoin gets one back...2-1 Hamilton about 20 minutes left...MacMillan scores on a PK to the keepers right...It was hard to tell what the call was on the stream..Either a hand ball or foul gave Bowdoin the PK off a corner.

Thanks for the recap Bucket....Sounds like it got real chippy at the end

Amherst at Colby game is end to end action in the first 15 minutes. The game right now is extremely stretched

[Mr.Right]

Colby up 1-0 on a great individual effort by #11 Rosenberg...Took a touch and absolutely BURNED Amherst #21 Von Ziegesar. Great individual effort and nice skill by Rosenberg BUT HORRIFIC defending by Amherst and Von Ziegesar as he should be nowhere near a field with his lack of pace..Colby 1-0 about 20 minutes in

[Mr.Right]

Hamilton holding on for dear life to a 2-1 lead over Bowdoin..Bowdoin is all over them but just cannot finish..Off a corner with 3 minutes left there was a scrum with the ball ending up on Niang's foot at about the 6 yard line and a really good chance got blocked and sent out as the GK was beat..Not a ton of time but a split second decision and hit should have been the tying goal by Niang....FINAL  2-1 Hamilton...Very good win for Hamilton as they try to get into the Top 4 and are playing at Williams midweek.

[Mr.Right]

Still 1-0 Colby with about 15 minutes left in the 1st Half and finally Serpone gets some of his regulars on the field as Bellow, Hlinomaz and Lind come on...Not sure about this Amherst GK Stone as he could of maybe dived and saved the shot by Rosenberg and then races out of his net to punch a ball and misses...I still do not understand what happened to Hope-Gund as I thought he was solid for them..Stone did make a tremendous save against Conn so maybe he has been better in practice or maybe Hope-Gund is injured? However, he came out at Halftime of the Conn game

[Mr.Right]

This ref in the Colby v Amherst match has been AWFUL...His whistle is stuck on his hand s will not blow it..Way to many non-calls and he will end up losing control of this game if he does not start calling fouls..

[Mr.Right]

Amherst is starting to get in a rhythm near the end of the 1st half..It could be me but Amherst against Conn and now today are actually trying to play a little futbol as they are knocking it around a bit in midfield and finding some feet up front...Colby's #18 Tower and #21 Dickey are just massive as both have to be at least 6'5. Pretty good game so far as Colby goes into Halftime with a 1-0 lead. I wonder if we will have another GK change at halftime as it is becoming the norm for Amherst now.

[Mr.Right]

2nd Half starts and Colby on the offensive with 2 dangerous chances already...Colby's #11 Rosenberg causing Amherst backs problems with his speed as he beats Amherst #16 Sebastian Derby a Frosh down the left flank and gives perfect service to Aoyama in the box but a nice play by Amherst CB to break it up.

[Mr.Right]

Some great chances for both Amherst and Colby as Amherst almost scores off a long throw that was one-timed off the bounce(I could not see who hit it) and it was an absolute bullet that hit the post. Colby with a great chance on the other end that was just missed...Still Colby 1-0 over Amherst with about 20 minutes left

[Mr.Right]

10 minutes left Colby holding onto a 1-0 lead over Amherst..Amherst starting to run out of time here as they are going to have to throw numbers forward. Colby starting to take its sweet time on throws and goal kicks

[Mr.Right]

Amherst ties up the game on a fantastic goal with 5 minutes left by Weller Hlinomaz...A nice cagey run by Hlinomaz off a corner and he gets his right boot to a fantastic serve..That is hard luck for Colby as they have played well but you have to focus for 90 minutes..Hlinomaz should not have been open on that corner. I did not notice if Colby was zoning on the corner but if they were that would be a good reason to go to man or if they were not playing zone than someone either got picked or lost their man...Good game

[Mr.Right]

In other action...Wesleyan takes an early 1-0 lead over Williams on a nice goal by #15 Alec Haas...Wesleyan MUST win this game to have any chance at getting into the Nescac Tournament..Will Wheeler sit back now on this lead? God I hope not..Or does Wesleyan keep its foot on the gas? They need to...


Colby v Amherst 1-1 heading to OT..

[Mr.Right]

You can see why Wesleyan is 1-5-1 in Nescac as Williams ties it up 1-1 at Wesleyan. Wesleyan defender blatantly gives the ball away to Williams in their defensive 3rd and not sure who it was but Williams player marches right into the box and rips a shot into the back of the net..Wesleyan GK has got to make that save even if it was a bullet...This has been Wesleyan's problem IMO..Defense not nearly as good as Wheeler teams usually are, bad giveaway's and bad GK'ing.
