East Poll for 10/6 http://www.nscaa.com/rankings/4554

Plattsburgh moves up to number 2 while SLU drops to 3
Oneonta moves to 4
Potsdam and Brockport drop out
Buff State stays at 10

Mr.Right

The EAST is an absolute mess. IMO Skidmore should be at least #3 and SLU and RPI should have dropped. How do you stay at #1 by going 0-1-1

Mid-Atlantic Fan

IMO Oneonta is the best team in this region. RPI and St. Lawrence are T2. The I would put Platt 4, SIT 5, Skid 6, UR 7, Vassar 8, Hobart 9, and Buff. State 10. IMO.

Thanks for the link to the East Region rankings.

So according to the NSCAA website, Alfred University picked up another loss and now sports an 8-4-2 record. Fact is, the Saxons are 8-1-2 and haven't lost a soccer game since their opener on Sept. 1.

Stevens also is 8-1-2 on the season but the two ties are in E8 play. The two teams meet at Yunevich Stadium in Saxonville at 3 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 10.

On Saxon Warriors!
On Saxon Warriors! On to Victory!
...Fight, fight for Alfred, A-L-F, R-E-D!

Another big SUNYAC weekend.

Today we have Cortland @ Buff State where Cortland is looking to get into a playoff spot and buff state is trying to keep their first round bye.

Potsdam @ Oneonta    at 1-1-1 potsdam would like to get a result to stay relevant in the race and oneonta hopes to keep their momentum up.

Other games on today:
Oswego @ Fredonia
Plattsburgh @ New Paltz

Saturday includes the game of the weekend
Plattsburgh @ Oneonta  Currently these are the two teams that playing the best in the SUNYAC right now. Neither team will want to lose this one as this could be the game to decide who takes the regular season crown.

Brockport @ Geneseo  I think brockport will need to win out and make it to at least the SUNYAC final to even have a shot at an at large bid, even then it will be a slim chance. They will have their hands full with a geneseo side that is looking to bounce back after a rough SUNYAC start.

Cortland @ Fredonia
Potsdam @ New Paltz
Oswego @ Buff State

Mr.Right

Yes BIG weekend in the SUNYAC that should separate the contenders and pretenders I THINK...However, my guess is you will have a couple surprise results, a couple draws and still no separation.

Every week there is something. Last year potsdamn took oneonta to OT

I still am flabbergasted at New Paltz...This was A BAD team last year. New Paltz is not the type of school to bring in to many impactful frosh. Has anyone seen this side? Did they not graduate a lot? Did they bring in a nice class? Or is it just dumb luck?

I'm just as confused, perhaps it is a combination of luck and them just showing up for games. The one game I was going to watch they did not have video for

I've seen them play once so far this season.  They didn't appear to have any standout players, but seemed reasonably solid up and down the roster.  They don't score a lot of goals (no particularly dangerous forwards), but they play hard and defend well, making it difficult for opponents to find a rhythm.  At least that's what happened in the game I saw.

2-0 Oneonta St. w/15 min to play. Potsdam still does not have a shot in the game. Being out shot 16-0 and 7-0 for SOG.

I don't know all the teams in SUNYAC well, but Oneonta, Plattsburgh, and Potsdam have been ones to watch for anyone following d3 soccer thus far this season.  New Paltz never made the radar for me this year...shocked that they were 8-4 so quietly.  Not the toughest schedule thus far, but still a decent record for this conf.  If Plattsburgh today, currently up 5-1 is a foreshadowing of the rest of their season, it's gonna be a long one for them...

Oneonta just went up 3-0 on Potsdam with less than 10' left in regulation as I'm writing this.  Ouch.
