WashU up 2-0 on Wheaton early in the second half.  Love the Wheaton announcers!

Hollingsworth PK narrows the gap to 2-1 with 31' to play.

Trinity shellshocks Brandeis with 2 goals in first 4 minutes.

Cheesehead Henry

Gulley helps Wheaton get back into it 2-2 with 3 min to play. Nice header.

Laser strike by Perez wins it in OT for Wash U against Wheaton.

Nationally ranked #2 and #3 fall on the same night...

(#2)Wheaton (IL) -- 2
Wash U -- 3

(#3)Messiah -- 3
Carnegie Mellon -- 4
According to the Messiah website, the last time Messiah allowed 4 goals was 17 years ago.

Plus Carthage knocks off Wash U 2-1 in the closing seconds of the game the night before.

We may be setting up for a banner year in the Great Lakes region.

CMU beats Messiah and is 3-0.

OWU gets by in OT last night against KZoo and looks to be coasting today.

Kenyon blasts Heidelberg 4-0 and is 3-0.

Case and Thomas More deadlocked at 2-2 last I checked and both came in undefeated.

Denison beat Emory today at Emory 2-1.

Ohio Northern stumbled losing with 2 minutes left in 2nd OT against Babson after outshooting the Beavers and nearly scoring twice a minute before the Babson goal.  Saw about a third of this one, which looked like a chippy, almost dirty game that was very choppy.  Important win for Babson after the ECSU loss.

And haven't even gotten to DePauw, John Carroll, etc.

Kenyon is looking a little stronger each game.  Amolo has 5 goals already in limited minutes.  The frosh look to be for real and will provide great depth.  Watch the freshman defender's goal on YouTube later tonight (a laser from 30 yards out and probably best Kenyon goal I've seen in 5 years of following).  Also very good news that Glassman made his first appearance today, only playing about 10 minutes but hopefully will be close to 100% after another handful of games.

CMU @ Kenyon next Saturday should be a good one.

Austin Juniet with the OT winner for TMC over Case!

Does anyone know William Webb from CMU?  Three goals and an assist against Messiah (7 points).  I wonder if that has ever been done before.  He already has 7 goals and 2 assists in CMU's first three games.

Would love to hear people's opinion on the first weekend?

Surprises for me:

CMU 3-0
E-town 3-0 (heard they have a frosh who could be Skips best recruit in years).
Stockton 3-0 (Widener Catholic W&L)

This year looks wide open with NESCAC soccer starting Tuesday.

What in the world is Calvin doing playing and beating Great Lakes Christian 14-0???

Wheaton @ Loras tonight.  Early season instant classic.
