2014 D3 Season: National Perspective

[dontshootthegoose]

Playing against Wheaton last weekend as my last collegiate game, I can honestly say that this Wheaton is the best team I've played against. They beat us 3-0, and they missed a bunch of sitters. Granted we had a couple opportunities that could of changed the game, but they are truly that great. They are a scary team with so many studs that play beautiful soccer.

i suspect a little of both.

Why is the Wheaton coach in his final season?

[gustiefan04]

His wife took a job in Atlanta. He will be coaching for a high school down there.

[Mr.Right]

Ok thanks..who are the candidates that they are looking at?  Is there an assistant on the bench in waiting?

[Mr.Right]

He should volunteer for Emory might help their anemic offense

[gustiefan04]

Not sure about a replacement. Not close enough to the program for that type of G2. I'd imagine it will be a large nation search.

The Calvin coach, a Wheaton alum, has got to be on the short list if he has any intererst.

[KnightFalcon]

There are a few former Wheaton players coaching elsewhere that I suspect will be at the top of the list - Jake Declute, Ryan Souders and Phil Wolf are 3 that come to mind

[Mr.Right]

I am really getting tired of narrow fields. Wheaton's field looks like a great soccer facility with a nice surface but very narrow

[KnightFalcon]

Did Wartburg play that poorly, or did Wheaton just play that well?  If Wartburg is really a true sweet 16 team, Wheaton looks like they will match right to the national final.

Wheaton was on fire from the beginning - they had a big crowd there too that helped. They never let Wartburg get settled and went up 2-0 in the first 15 minutes. Wartburg is going to be in trouble anytime the other team is more aggressive than they are and that happened right from the start.

And Loras strikes first.  Am I the only one that finds it really hard to watch a stream with no audio?

[Mr.Right]

Uggh I hate when I get up and miss goals...Could one of you describe the goal and the goings on before the goal...I do not mind no audio I just put music on or the TV on

[KICKIN95]

Beautiful goal after slicing right through the Trinity D! They aren't using the same camera either.  Crappy quality

Dribbled past 3 defenders on the left side of the field and bends in in the right upper 90 from 18 out. Actually out in the upoer ring, isn't that worth 2?
