NESCAC

[d4_Pace]

Team Impact is a cool program that I think quite a few NESCAC teams and others around the country are involved in. https://www.gotuftsjumbos.com/sports/msoc/2021-22/releases/20211020hkxhgn

We drafted a kid my freshmen year who was involved with our program for almost my entire college career. He would come to a bunch of home games and hangout on the bench with the team. I remember him making a sign for us that we took on the road to every NCAA tourney game all over the country. Definitely was a cool experience and I'm glad we were involved.

Nescac Predictions Week 8


Midd at Trinity----Midd 9-3-1(4-3-1) are coming off a midweek 3-1 Win at Keene St. Trinity 3-10-0(0-8-0) a 1-0 Home Win v WCONN. Colby had success against Midd when it was keeping the ball quickly moving down the field on the grass. Colby kept attacking Midd's left side, so LB #16 Pape and LCB #32 O'Brien. Midd's defense eats up any long balls and they have decent speed so over the top balls are not going to work for Trinity. Midd is skilled in central midfield and they battle but they have a tendency to hold the ball to long and then want to go backwards instead of forwards. This pulls the plug from your counter. Some good quick play down field is ready to break and then sometimes they will slow it down and knock it back which of course allows your opposition time to get settled and mark up. They have got to find a way to allow #23 Saint Louis to use his speed on the flank more. Over the top, a one-two with #9 Reid or quick passing upfield thru central midfield into space for him to run onto. Saint-Louis is so fast without the ball that I think he needs to be fed more into space than his feet. Then keep feeding him. Trinity has the best field in the league right now and Midd should be able to take advantage of it. 3-1 Midd


Colby at Amherst----Colby 6-6-1(3-4-1) are coming off of a split weekend with a 2-1 Win over Midd on Saturday and a 1-2 Loss to Wesleyan. They looked good on Saturday but ran out of gas on Sunday. They have got to find a way to get the striker #25 Simoes on the field more with #22 Franco sitting behind him. Both of them accounted for more than half of the SOG and Shots against Midd and did it in 52 and 30 minutes each. They seem to work well together and Colby will need them at Amherst. Colby is not a pressing team as they wait for you to cross midfield then they pounce on you. I mean they give token pressure from their striker but they choose to transition defensively then hound you. Will Colby use more size in this game or try to get their speedy players out on the field? I think both will be needed against Amherst. I could see Amherst 10-2-1 (5-2-1) suffocating Colby in attack starting with this Frosh Holder #3 Laurens ten Cate. He is a competitive kid and played well at Tufts last weekend. Amherst is very good at finding kids with the right mentality. Backline has been the usual suspects #5 Johnson at RB, #12 Wu and #7 Kelly at CB and either #33 Gittler or #22 Ben Clark-Eden at LB. If you see Wu moving upfield for a set piece or corner you can bet the server is aiming for him to flick it with his head or score. Colby wingbacks need to bring their wheels for this game. #3 Franklin is fast at RB but I have noticed is very right footed and #4 Seaman has speed at LB. The two CB's #5 Traore and #23 Assadourian might need to take a step or two back to account for Amherst speed. Amherst #23 Okorogheye will be on the right flank and is very right footed so its a must to shade him inside to his left foot. Amherst #9 is starting to heat up as he has 6 Goals in his last 8 games all against challenging competition. Still he has yet to get a brace this season while in 2019 he had 7 games scoring more than 1 Goal and 3 games with a hat trick. Putting myself in #9's shoes I would be feeling good nervous energy. In 2 months, he will be in Ireland playing Professionally. Do I have that right? Someone posted something on that a while back. That would be all I would be thinking about because if he does not have a direct connection with the club he will have to show well or they will move on down the conveyer belt. There is no reason to think he cannot handle the pressure but still you want to be prepared and maybe this whole Amherst season thing is kind of getting in the way. Maybe he should be running hills and training with a ball every day working on his touch instead of going to video sessions and getting scouts on SUNY POLY for the NCAA 1st Round. Maybe he already is doing that and playing the season as well. I have no way of knowing but going from D3 to Professional is not easy for field players(GK's are a bit different) and I have seen many players really give it a go. Some have succeeded by bouncing around from country to country or club to club and others stop after the 1st club and come back to the States to work for various reasons. Either way he is going to have a fantastic opportunity that most players dream of and one of the most memorable experiences of his young life. Back to D3 World, Colby's veterans need to watch the youngsters because Amherst is very good at frustrating the opponent and goading cards from them. Colby upset Amherst in 2017 but that was at Home. I do not think Colby has ever Won at Amherst so it would be a great Win for the program.             2-0 Amherst



Williams at Bates-----These two teams are heading in the wrong direction at the wrong time. Both teams need a Win. Bates 6-7-0 (3-5-0) have lost 4 straight games including to Maine Farmington midweek. Williams 6-5-2 (2-4-2) are coming off a midweek loss at Hamilton. Williams has never missed a Nescac Tournament and they have not had a below .500 record in 40 years. Both of those things could happen with 2 games left or they can lift their heads up and buckle down to go on a run. Williams CB #13 Felitto is back from injury so that should help. Bates is not a pacey team compared to other Nescac's so Williams needs speed and quickness in the lineup. Hopefully without the 20-25 balls over the top that usually end by giving the ball back to the other team. This game is a toss up because both teams are so inconsistent. Neither team can afford to sit in so maybe the game will open up?  3-2 Williams


Hamilton at Wesleyan----Something has to give in this match. Hamilton has Won 5 games in a row and Wes has Won 4 games in a row. Wesleyan sits in 4th at 9-2-2(4-2-2) while Hamilton has snuck back into the hunt with 3 straight Nescac Wins. They are on the losing end of a tiebreaker with Bates for the 8th and final Playoff spot. I have mentiond Hamilton's lineup changes and how all these Frosh have contributed to this run. The most important two have been the target man up top #16 Hawthorn as he has scored 3 Goals in his last 5 games. He is a fantastic header of the ball as he puts some juice on the end of crosses. Some of those crosses have been coming from #27 Luke Peplowski who has been maybe their best player in this run. He has changed how Hamilton look and play in central midfield and while not a speedster he has skill and a Soccer brain. Wesleyan has to remember that 3/4 of Hamilton's backline are Frosh and the holder is a Frosh. These players are unfamiliar with Wesleyan's field and environment. If there has been one program that Wesleyan athletics have ignored it has been Men's Soccer. They desperately need to strip Jackson field and get a solid grass surface down but with the AD being a Football guy don't hold your breath. I have written extensively this week on Wes and expect them to Win this game. The CB situation is something to watch for because when #26 Porte left the field Wheeler used two different players in his place #2 Sam Keenan and a Frosh #17 Miles Lambke. 1-0 Wesleyan

Tufts at Conn----I am out of time but I want to come back to this game tonight.  This game is for all the marbles. To get to the next level Conn started beating Midd, Bowdoin and Williams consistently. Now they must start beating or show they can beat Amherst and Tufts. I be back

[College Soccer Observer]

Mr. Right:  I will take issue with your characterization that Conn has consistently beaten Midd.  Scores since 2015:

As it happens, Jackson Field was in fact stripped after the last playing season.  The surface looks much improved.

[Mr.Right]

Mr. Right:  I will take issue with your characterization that Conn has consistently beaten Midd.  Scores since 2015:
2015 1-0 Midd
2016 1-0 Midd
2017 2-1 Conn
2017 1-0 Midd (NESCAC TOURN)
2018 1-0 Conn
2019 2-1 Midd
2019 0-0 Midd wins on PKs (NESCAC Tourn)
2021 1-0 Conn

I probably should have worded it differently. You have to remember where Conn is coming from because they struggled for a long time especially mid 90's-2012. The program has come a long way in just a decade but back in those days they would have never beaten Williams and Midd on the same weekend. NEVER...So I should say when they started to beat these teams, I said to myself "hmm self.. Conn seems to be turning a corner" but then that scoffer part of you goes "nah lets see them show us they can win games against teams like Midd consistently"...So I guess I meant to say they started to beat better teams consistently. However, my main point was they still have not beaten Amherst in over a decade and Tufts since 2014 so now they have to try to get past these two... #Team Goals....

[Mr.Right]

I am glad to hear Jackson Field has been done...Kentucky Bluegrass I assume? This Kentucky Bluegrass is killing Williams field and I have noticed Bowdoin's field start to get spotty as well. Like a weed starts growing and the grounds crew have no fix. Middlebury had this problem before they put that turf field down.

[Mr.Right]

Conn at Tufts------Tufts is 10-0-2 (6-0-2) and I just realized they only played 4 non league games this year. Is this a new trend? I mean if Tufts wanted a 5th game they easily could have gotten one. So makes no sense unless they purposely did not want such a congested calendar. Tufts has been using a back 4 of LB #26 Campbell, LCB #25 Clivio, RCB #16 Paoletta and RB #3 Daly. #6 Enge, #5 Aroh and #13 Van Brewer in central midfield and #19 Traynor wide right with #17 Rosas wide left and #11 Cano up top. I thought Tufts did what they had to do to beat Amherst. It was not pretty but effective. Too many giveaway's for my liking but its Tufts and they will go ball hunting and get it right back. Strength of this team is from back to front all the way up the spine. GK, back 4, central midfield and striker. The weakness to me is they are just not as dangerous on the flanks as in 2019 at least not with the ball at their feet. Team speed has dropped a bit and the bench has not been as strong as years past. However, they have an abundance of injuries. More concerning is besides #12 Mikey Brady(ughh.. say it aint so.. St.Albans) and #19 Traynor no other underclassman have scored a goal and frankly besides Brady, Clivio and Campbell I see no other Frosh or Soph contributing much. #8 Woovin Shin is listed as a Soph but he was on that 2019 team so I consider him more a veteran. I guess my point is what is going to happen when this monster Senior class(10 players) graduates? I have talked about Conn and its lineup on here quite a bit. After going back and watching more of their past games this year, they have got to find a way to get #5 Cerezo on the field holding. As a CB he has made a few mistakes (Wheaton goal and Amherst goal) but he is too good an athlete and player to be coming off the bench. With his skill mixed with the wingbacks they could have some fantastic combination play moving forward. I think this is Conn's Home field and this is their game tomorrow.  Conn  1-0

[PaulNewman]

Is it just me, or does it seem like Midd always (often?) finds a way to disappoint.  The Panthers give Trinity the Bantams' first point in the NESCAC, and failed to score in a 0-0 draw.  They weren't short on fouls, though, winning that duel by a whopping 26 to 10 margin.

[Mr.Right]

Conn v Tufts notes----

What a college soccer game that was. I think for me the best game of the season so far. I wish I had seen it in person.  For Tufts it is only one loss, but certainly they have to clean up some areas and stay positive. 1st Half Tufts was the better team as they had more chances but 2nd Half the tide turned and Conn roared back. That was a statement game for Conn and a big Win for the program. Burk is a likable taskmaster as you can see the improved mentality of the team and the improved play of the team. The players busted all game as everyone gave it 100% when on the field. Their practices must be intense because the bench is as good as the starters. 3 starters out? Oh no problem we will replace them and play better so you will not miss them.  Honestly, Conn wanted the game more than Tufts. Burk has also recruited well as they now have the talent to compete with anyone. He also was cagey with his strategy. At the start of the game Tufts was ready to press with 4 guys and played their backline high expecting Conn to start playing out of the back. Instead Conn hit 3 or 4 balls over the top that eventually kept Tufts honest. They could not sit high and press if Conn was going to be hitting some penetrating over the top's. Tufts backed up to the midfield line an it was only then that Conn started to play out of the back but they were not nearly as possession needy as in other games. Burk understood to beat Tufts you needed to be practical and switch it up a bit. Some long balls, some building. I like it.

He also had a trick play on a set piece about 35 yards from goal. Conn's #25 Yeonas and #17 Creus were standing over the ball ready to hit it. They were both bickering at each other and pretending to be planning or arguing on who was to take the kick. As Tufts was trying to figure out who exactly was taking the kick Creus sprinted hard right and was wide open with no defender on him. Yeonas played him and he hit one but it went wide. Still he got a nice free look out of it.



Both teams have guys out as it is that time of year. Tufts was without #7 Ratzan, #9 Jacobs, #10 Seigelstein and #22 Welsh. Conn was missing #9 Tshuma, #14 Djerdjaj, #21 Dutkewych. Conn's dangerous winger #13 Scoffone had to be carried off the field late in the 2nd Half.


Starting line-ups-

Conn had #00 Maidenberg in net with a back 4 of LB #6 Horvath Diano, LCB #24 Kelesoglu, RCB #5 Cerezo and RB #4 Mendo. Holding #16 Lobo with #18 Marvel and #8 Jaran rounding out central midfield. Wide left #Scoffone #13, wide right #25 Yeonas and #12 Gehron up top. Just so everyone understands what Conn accomplished today only 2 of those starters were starting in 2019. 1 SR, 2 JR, 6 SO and 2 Frosh. Bench was productive. #2 Viotto and #30 Doyle spell the wingbacks and both are capable players. Same goes for #10 Robles and #17 Creus who came on for the wingers. #7 Zane replaced Gehron up top. He and Scoffone had a give and go late in the 2nd Half that would have been a great goal but Zane had a heavy touch and Tufts #16 Paoletta cleared. Then when Conn took the lead in the 2nd Half Burk changed to a 4-2-3-1 and pushed Yeonas in the middle to give Marvel and Jaran each a breather. In the 1st Half about 15 min left he switched the wingers so Yeonas went left and Scoffone right maybe for a different look or matchup that was not working.

Tufts had #0 Lauta in goal with a back 4 of LB #26 Campbell, LCB #25 Clivio, RCB #16 Paoletta and RB #3 Daly. Usual suspects in midfield #5 Aroh, #6 Enge and #13 Van Brewer. They had #2 Gerken wide left and #19 Traynor wide right with #11 Cano up top. The bench for Tufts had #23 Feigin come on as a winger and showed wheels but his heavy back pass to Van Brewer in the 2nd Half started Conn down the field for their 2nd Goal. #8 Shin showed well in central midfield and pulled a string or 2. #12 Brady spelled Cano up top. After Conn's 2nd Goal Dezotell went 3-4-3 and brought on a Frosh #27 Denby for Campbell as one of his three defenders. #18 Huynh played out wide and I thought he played well v Amherst last week.

Before the Conn goals, Tufts was threatening in the first 10 minutes of the 2nd Half. You could say Tufts was knocking on the door when Van Brewer received a ball at the top of the 18. He faked a shot and played a beautiful ball on the ground splitting the CB's. That is the most dangerous ball in attack IMO. Split the CB's from midfield either on the ground or over their heads to a teammate running onto it. Anyhow, a great run by Cano to get onto Van Brewer's pass and just as he was ready to rip it up he went down. It looked on the stream like he got mugged by Conn's ruthless CB #24 Kelesoglu. That kid is a player. No call and no real complaining so I assume maybe he was not taken down? Hard to tell on stream.

1st Goal started from a harmless Conn throw-in around midfield. Daly defensively heads the ball a mile into the air off the throw. As the ball came down it was Daly v Yeonas to win it and Yeonas won the 50/50 and quickly fed the target man Gehron. Gehron receives the ball with Pauletta already on him. So Gehron has Pauletta posted up with the ball at his feet. For some reason Pauletta took the easy way out by guessing the young kid would turn outside before he actually moved. The buck went inside and now was moving towards the top of the 18. At this point he was surrounded by Daly and Enge but neither tackled him, instead they shaded him towards the middle of the field. Gehron could feel the heat though and knew he had to find a teammate. Luckily #8 Jaran arrived in Gehron's sight and he played him at the top of the 18. Enge was right there waiting but Jaran faked and started moving to his right. At this point Enge has got to tackle him but no instead he shoulders him to try and knock Jaran off the ball. Jaran felt the hit but was strong enough to keep his composure and stay on the ball. Jaran decides to take a couple last touches to his right and then rips one with his right foot off the inside of the far post and in to beat the GK. Great goal but someone has to tackle.


Right off the kickoff after the goal Tufts could have had the equalizer. Enge noticed a great run by Daly overlapping and fed him but Daly missed it wide. I could not tell if it was a cross or shot but Cano was near the area and maybe could have poked it in. Hard to tell on the stream.


2nd Goal happened about 10 minutes after the first. Tufts CB #25 Clivio had possession in their half and played a nice ball to a checking #23 Feigin. As soon as Feigin was immediately pressed by 2 Conn players as they forced him to play backwards. He hit a heavy ball backwards to Van Brewer and Conn's striker #7 Zane was on him like a fly to feces. Zane battled Van Brewer to the ground and won the ball in Conn's attacking 3rd. Pauletta again has a chance to tackle but instead stuck his foot out to flick it away. Conn's Zane stays composed and strong on the ball as he gets by Pauletta and feeds a streaking #8 Jaran who buries it. A great run and finish by Jaran.


Game balls----#8 Jaran --2 goals
                    #00 Maidenberg----A couple key saves to keep Tufts off the board in both halves.
                    #24 Kelesoglu---This kid is an animal on the backline. Loves the slide tackle and reads the game well for a Frosh. Tackles hard.

[Mr.Right]

Is it just me, or does it seem like Midd always (often?) finds a way to disappoint.  The Panthers give Trinity the Bantams' first point in the NESCAC, and failed to score in a 0-0 draw.  They weren't short on fouls, though, winning that duel by a whopping 26 to 10 margin.

They were sleepwalking 1st Half. 2nd Half was better. They play much better on their field. With Reid up top looking as fit and fast as ever I expect Midd to still make some noise. They can look a little predictable in their attacking 3rd but also can beat anyone in the league on any given day because of GK'ing, defense and talent up top.

[SimpleCoach]

@Mr. Right.  That's a fantastic summary.  I was impressed with Connecticut and thought they grew into the game.  I thought they had a very specific game plan to deal with Tufts, and frankly, I thought Tufts just thought they could do whatever they want and that Conn would roll over.  I think this is a huge win for Conn's confidence, and think it shows that Tufts is vulnerable.

Really enjoyed the game, and agree that Coach Burke is one of the good guys.

[Mr.Right]
