2014 D3 Season: National Perspective

[lastguyoffthebench]

Rutgers Camden up 1.0 on NYU... outshooting them 8 to 1 in the first 20 min...

[Mr.Right]

RUN beats Babson 2-0 and they deserved to win. Their one weak spot to me is their GK. They will not go far if he continues to charge out of his net and make poor decisions. For now they can sleep well and should have a very good battle against SUNY Cortland tomorrow for a Sweet 16 berth

Live Table

UAA-  0-1-0
Newmac- 1-1-0

[Mr.Right]

Ok now for Tufts v Dickinson...Let's hope for decent live stream

SLU could have easily won 15-0. Durocher put in the third string at 7-0 and kept everyone from going to goal. Possession was at least 90-10. 

[Mr.Right]

What league is SUNY Purchase in? Is that Sage's league? That is absolutely awful. That should give SLU a nice advantage over Amherst if they rested all their straters for most of the game. On the flip side it could hurt them as well. I remember in 2010 when Williams defeated Elms 9-1 in the first round and then were very flat the next day and lost in the 2nd round to Babson 2-1.

[Mr.Right]

Tufts dominating Dickinson halfway thru the first half but cannot finish. I am disappointed in Dickinson as they do not have a quality shot on net yet and have not been able to create much. This game has some goals in it I am convinced

[chelseafc30]

Did anyone catch the Kenyon-Heidelberg game? Was it a good one? I couldn't get the stream to work and now I can't get the Thomas More-North Park stream to work either.

[Ommadawn]

I can only get Live Stats from the North Park - Thomas More game.  Loras just went up 1-0 on Westminster.  Westminster answered with a shot off the crossbar 67'.

[Mr.Right]

The Kenyon stream worked fine for me. I was just checking in on the game here and there so I cannot give you a report.

[Mr.Right]

I see Thomas More ahead of North Park 1-0. I called that upset as I thought North Park was not very good when I saw them. Obviously, there is a lot of time left. Also, Catholic and Coast Guard in the most exciting match of the day 0-0 and 4-1 in shots Catholic. PK's in that one I am sue and Coast Guard does not want to see Catholic in PK's as their field player / goalie is very very good.

[Mr.Right]

Tufts should beat Dickinson but you never know as the 2nd half is ready to start. Dickinson is athletic and big in the back but they do not have anything really creative and their first touch is horrible. Their backs whack everything

[Mr.Right]

Tufts goes up 1-0 on a nice header off a cross from the end line. Wide open header as Dickinson was caught sleeping

[Mr.Right]

Dickinson ties it up on a broken play and bad defending. Theme of this tournament

[stlawus]

You make a good point that resting starters could be detrimental.  Although Durocher rotated at least 1 starter on the field throughout the 2nd half to keep them fresh.  Serpone was up in the stands sitting next to me taking notes, but he wasn't watching our normal formation or game plan.  Should be a good matchup tomorrow, barring Amherst holding on to their lead which looks to be pretty likely.
