2016 NCAA Tournament

Mr.Right, if Tufts wins do you think Tufts will host with two Boston area teams and Trinity/Kenyon?

Well I believe UMASS Boston should host but since they do not have a home field I am not sure the situation. I would imagine the committee giving it to one of the Mass teams to save money but we have seen strange bracket hostings before and if they feel Kenyon deserves to host then they might be hosting...I would give it a 75% chance if Tufts holds on the the pod would be in Boston which we would all be rooting for in New England.

Mr. R, -k for somehow throwing Amherst into today's mess. Seriously, where's the bottom to your weird fixation? I'd love to know the genesis story to your vitriol.

Kenyon didn't apply to host.

@Mr. Right...Absolutely embarrassing that you would compare a 28 year old man who was arrested today for attacking a Haverford player and then headbutting a referee to the Amherst bench.  I played at Amherst for 4 years and no player received a straight red card in my time there, and there was for sure never an instance where police were called to the field.  It's too bad that someone like you who cares so much about d3 soccer has so little credibility to his name in the d3 soccer world because of your clear lack of judgment.  Many of my fellow Amherst and non-amherst Nescac soccer alums feel the same exact way

[Mr.Right]

LOL was he arrested...Jesus?   I was comparing Amherst bench antics to Umass Boston bench antics which luckylefty mentioned they should not have advanced...Take ur purple and white blinders off...Amherst has not head butted a ref but they are not choirboys over there...

[Mr.Right]

Please enough with all this nonsense i am trying to watch the Jumbos and see if they can advance to the Sweet 16

Chicago starts 4 freshman, 4sophmores and two juniors. Up 1-0 on Westminster in the second minute.

@Mr. Right...In the future it might be worth making sure you have some semblance of an idea as to what is going on regarding a certain situation before posting an egregiously hot take on a public online forum

As I was leaving the game I saw their #77 getting driven away in a Cop car. Rumor was it was because he headbutted the ref and thus assaulted the referree. The stoppage of play was because the NCAA was trying to figure out whether or not to end the game with UMB forfeiting for their conduct. I suppose the ref decided to let it continue but truly the most classless performance from a team I've ever seen in my entire life

Interestingly enough, as Mr.Right said, Tre Ming of Thomas headbutted the referee last year in the Terriers' game against Brandeis and received a red card, although I didn't hear about any retroactive action being taken against him: he was a senior, but I was surprised that some type of discipline wasn't imposed (to my knowledge). Perhaps he should have been arrested, too? I didn't see the game Haverford vs. UMB game, but would be curious to see the footage to be able to make my own observation, as making any (violent and intentional) physical contact with a referee is absolutely unacceptable.

[Mr.Right]

Tufts really playing well against Rowan, giving them nothing offensively. They have not had a legit sniff all game. Tufts playing some good futbol with a lot of confidence right now.

[gustiefan04]

Benidicine up 2-0 over UWW a little over midway thru the first half. Surprising score line. Would have expected that to be reversed...

Looks like Benedictine is better than folks anticipated.

Chicago having their way with Westminster - had to turn it if.

Looking at Williamson's bio, age and previous college and professional experience: how is he eligible to play for Boston?

[blooter442]

Greenwood once again shaky on a ball into the box, dropping it in traffic. Gets away with it as the Rowan player shoots into the side netting. Man he's a great goalkeeper and made a fantastic save earlier in the game, and he has definitely improved on his command of his area this year, but that will really be an area of concern for Tufts if he doesn't sort that out.

[gustiefan04]

UWW gets one back with about 5 left in the first half.
