St. Thomas is down 0-1 to Scholastica! Can CSS hold on for the major upset?!

[dontshootthegoose]

St. Thomas just hit a PK off the post... still down 0-1!

[dontshootthegoose]

CSS shooting themselves in the feet.

Gave up a goal with 3 minutes left, just picked up a red card with 1 second left.   

If you are keeping track at home, that's 3 red cards in 2 games for Scholastica...

Lynchburg and JCU tied at half. LC started with tremendous energy playing at home - dictated play for the first 15-20 minutes and getting their goal off a corner. JCU keeper attempted a one-handed punch - either missed it completely or barely touched the cross - back post player heads it home. JCU got into the game later in the half and scored off a beauty from 22 yards out - left footed drive into the tight upper 90.

LC moving the ball much more quickly. JCU, in addition to taking too long on the ball, is suffering from poor passing accuracy.

LC scores 4 minutes into the second half - 2-1.

3-1 now. LC has a couple players with monster throws - third goal comes from a second header of a long throw. Keeper makes a valiant attempt to save it - gets a hand on it up cannot keep it out.  Both second half goals scored from inside the 6.

4-1 - LC wins a 50/50 challenge and quickly goes to goal - slotted pass received and placed nicely into the lower left corner.  JCU responded well after those two early second-half goals - had 4 really good chances but only forced the keeper to make one save. The score is more lop-sided than the game and LC needs to tighten up in the back by tomorrow.

CMU has played a great game but simply cannot break through Calvin in the final third.  Got to be very frustrating.  At times seems like Calvin has 13 players on the field.  Vegter clears everything in sight.  Calvin scores off corner with 3 headers yielding goal.  Calvin is a very tough, well-organized and well-coached team.  A good opponent after so much effort to break through inevitably is going to leave a lot of space for Calvin going the other way.  If we get to Calvin vs Messiah that will be a monumental battle.

St Thomas wins 2-1 in 2 OT, as they bombard shorthanded SSC with corners and finally put a head solidly on one.

[PaulNewman]

Thanks for karma whoever.  Calvin wins 1-0.  CMU gave it everything they had.  Got very close a few times but then Calvin GK would make a great save.

UMASS Boston showing its chops with a 2-0 lead over Kean halfway thru the 2nd Half

UR showing why they limped into the dance as they are down 2-0 to Eastern late in the 2nd Half.

Brandeis dominating WNEC but just cannot finish as they should have 2-3 goals at this point. 2nd Half just getting started still 0-0

Kenyon has a 1-0 lead at half against Maryville (TN) thanks to a snipe from Philippe Stengel.

[rudy]

Messiah and Centenary coming up soon at 5pm..followed by Chris Newport and MSU at 730 ..that should be a good game

[golordsiamlord]

30 min remaining, Kenyon up 2-0.  Brice Koval with the finish

[rudy]

Messiah up 2-0 with 20 left in first half.  14 shots to 1

[Mr.Right]

Cortland St goes down 1-0 to Morrisville St 1-0 in a possible upset but they tie the game up 1-1 on an absolute HORRIFIC GK'ing error. A harmless long cross takes a turn towards goal and an easy catch for the GK. GK lets the ball go right thru his hands. 1-1 game and if you are going to upset the home team you need stellar Gk'ing not a disaster in net

[njf1003]

F&M up 1-0 over W&L in the ampersand battle. W&L leads in shots 7-6.

(Also F&M has had the great broadcasts since before Messiah, so it was Messiah, and lots of other who have upgraded to F&M)

[PaulNewman]

F&M broadcast team is superb...video good but angles and view not great.

Kenyon looked very sloppy today.  That will not get it done tomorrow against a team that has yet to lose on its home field and will have an active crowd.  Maybe another night of sleep after very long bus ride and a bus accident before practice today will help.  Should be relatively fresh as Brown played a lot of subs a ton and was probably sending a message to starting forwards and mids whose passes were not sharp and far too many easy giveaways and loss of 50/50 balls to a scrappy Maryville team.  Lords need to come out hot tomorrow and snag an early goal.
