IIAC 2015

Well, well, well....Regular season play starts tomorrow and I'm all jacked up on Mountain Dew.

Any early predictions for the season? I'll go out on a limb here and say it will be Wartburg vs. Loras in the final yet again.

Cheers y'all.

Not much of a limb, but I'd have to agree.

Non conference Wheaton and Loras could be an early indicator if either team lost much since last year.

Let the games begin

Homegrown Harry · September 02, 2015, 11:15:45 AM

Well some interesting results from games I either attended, watched or keep track on.

What happened to Luther? Bad day or is Olaf finally clicking?
Maybe the same for Wartburg??, but getting a tie in games they should win was pretty common last year. Better than a loss.
Loras pulls one out late, again much like last year.

Rest of the conference, nothing much of a surprise although Simpson needed OT to get the win.

Upcoming weekend should be telling with respect to how the "big 3" finish.

I particularly can't wait for the Loras Wheaton game coming up.

So to recap the first week in the IIAC ...

Luther falls 4-0 to St. Olaf and then comes back to beat UW-Superior 7-1

Loras tops UW-Oshkosh 2-1 and St. Olaf 2-0

Wartburg draws with Macalester 3-3, bests Webster 4-1, and falls to UW-Superior 7-1.

Whoa. For Luther and Wartburg, chalk this up to early season blunders?

Flying Weasel · September 06, 2015, 11:01:01 PM

Wartburg only lost 1-0 to UW-Superior, not 7-1.

Puerco Espin · September 07, 2015, 02:22:37 AM

My apologies. Mistyped.

Homegrown Harry · September 08, 2015, 11:13:58 AM

Well after week 1 looks like co-favorites for the IIAC are going in different directions.
Loras always seems to prevail

Homegrown Harry · September 08, 2015, 02:39:55 PM

I think that was last year.
Seniors aren't coming back to play again are they?

Sir Victor · September 08, 2015, 03:25:36 PM

Yes. You are spot on there Harry. Just trying to get these Loras clowns fired up

KICKIN95 · September 08, 2015, 10:23:33 PM

Well these Loras clowns just clown stomped #2 Wheaton in a convincing 2-0 fashion.
So let's recap: Wartburg ties a mediocre Macalester allowing 3 goals and gets blanked by an equally middle of the road UW-Superior. All while Loras takes down not 1, but 2 regional perennial power houses and goose eggs a nationally runner up who supposedly is better this year. Mmmm humble pie.

It's early Kickin 95..it's early. See you October 10th.

I was just doing as you asked, getting fired up and the banter going
