Lycoming looks like they will fall to CMU 2-0 with a few minutes to go. Good result for CMU.

2-1 final here. Really could have gone either way from what I saw but a signature win for CMU.

 Rowan struggling to score ...past 3 games only 1 goal. Very uncharacteristic of them.  Graduation losses may have had big impact on offense.

Messiah is the clear favorite in the pack and JHU & F&M are close behind. Dickinson and Lycoming both have been battled tested on the road thus far and survived the treks. Scranton, LVC, and Fords are close behind with some nice results. Muhles are off to a quality start so keep an eye on them as they face some tougher competition and Drew rounds out the top 10 despite 2 losses early.

Watching Scranton vs. Misericordia.  0-1 to the guests with 25 left in 1st half.  Scranton plays a nice game, it just doesn't appear they have enough talent.  And the parents are super annoying.  I had to mute it.

[Ejay]

1-1 draw in Scranton.  Again, thought Scranton played a nice game and moved the ball well, but they didn't generate many good chances.  Misericordia on the other hand had several good chances, but Scranton keeper came up big multiple times.

Watched the first half of this and, as mentioned above, the parents were just treacherous to listen to so I switched to a different game. From what I saw early on, it was wide open with plenty of chances so I assume this didn't change as the game progressed and opened up even more. Nice result for Misericordia and a tough draw for Scranton.

Getting back into the swing of things! Nice assessment MAF but I do view it a little differently thus far...

Shooter's Top 10
1. Messiah (3-0-1)---Big regional battle at Dickinson tonight
2. Hopkins (4-1-0)---Still the biggest threat to Messiah despite a loss to a good MW team. Lets see how the deal w/York today
3. F&M (4-0-0)---Easily can be flipped with JHU but I think they are a step behind at the moment. Face Etown today.
4. Lycoming (2-1-1)---Tough tests await as they travel to Medaille today
5. Dickinson ( 2-1-1)---A chance for a signature win today vs the Falcons. A must watch game!
6. Muhles (3-0-0)---Chance to possibly knock Drew out of the at-large bid discussion today
7. Fords (2-1-0)---Stevens will be a tough one today but a good start through 3
8. Leb Val (2-1-0)---Faces Susquehanna this afternoon
9. Scranton (2-1-2)---A poor result last night as they tied Misericordia at home. Trending down for me.
10. Swat (3-1-0)---Nice start and have a big match with Eastern today.

Others: Drew (3-2-0), Catholic (2-1-0), Moravian (2-1-1), Manhattanville (3-1-0), Keystone (3-2-0),

Good start vs. a weak schedule so far.  Not much to say other than that
