Big Dance

[Falconer]

Hoping that rudy can provide a report in the Falcon injured list. His son played a terrific game today, repeatedly shutting down much bigger players and sometimes making them look silly by taking the ball from their feet or jumping in front if passes. As I said, Oneonta was much bigger but Messiah was more athletic.

After Ruark went out with what looked like an ankle injury, his son moved from LB to DMF and ran the show like he's done it his whole life.

Gettysburg . . . for me one of the surprises of the tournament by winning 5-0 yesterday against Oglethorpe and now up 2-0 on W&L.

W&L beats Getty 3-2.  Kudos to the Generals, they showed a ton of grit after being down 2-0 in the first half and giving up an own goal.

Really proud of the Generals. That's a young team but they ground out a tough win yesterday and have to be pleased with the fight back today. Second time all season they gave up more than one goal, both to Centennial teams.

[Hopkins All American]

Hopkins and Conn game has evened up in last 15 minutes.... Butera has rocket shot saved in last four minutes... and half ended 0-0.

CC def looked the better team in 2nd half. More chances created and pressed Hopkins effectively. Hopkins were struggling to play out from the back and create any opportunity

Camels ... great goal with 2 minutes left!!!  1-0...

[BendIt007]

Huge win for the Camels!  And well earned as controlled most of game after the first 30 minutes.

Tufts wins 2-1 on a goal with 30 seconds left. Conn wins means the path to final four most likely runs through medford again.

Tufts Senior CB Tanner Jameson wins it with a beauty of a header off a corner with 30 seconds left. WPI gave everything they had and deserve tons of credit. Both teams worked hard but the veteran who was starting in place of Paoletta and was shaky at best with the ball at his feet has always been good in the air and now shows he can lead on the field not just off of it. great goal...I thought Aroh played well today and was very active. Rojas also had a good game. WPI read the scout on Tasker's lack of a left foot as their defender took 2-3 steps back and sat on his right foot. Tasker should of had 2 goals with his left foot. The back 4 looked shaky at times with the ball but defended well. Looks like Shapiro went to a 3-5-2 when his starters came back on the field in the 80th minute. WPI's Conroy? had a fantastic game as WPI has 2-3 weapons up top and in midfield. great D3 game in the falling snow.

I forgot how good RPI TV is.  As one would expect.  Great video quality.

[Mr.Right]

Midd at RPI heading to PK's 0-0...very predictable result with these two teams. Winner gets to play Messiah. Now who for Midd will take the 5?

my guess--Goulart, Barry, Potter, Robinson, McFarlane..maybe Oudet

[Mr.Right]

F&M great video quality and announcers...0-0 v MSU heading to PK's as well...winner gets Kenyon I believe

[d4_Pace]

Spot on Mr Right. I thought Conroe was awesome today for WPI and Kindermann had to make two big saves against the run of play. Tufts was pretty dominate in the second half missing two breakaways. But this team has a never say die attitude and has orchestrated multiple comebacks this season, something they haven't had to do in the past.

With the win the senior class moves to 15-1 in the NCAA tournament. Technically 13-1-2 but I think counting a pk win in the NCAAs a tie is stupid. If one teams crying and they other is celebrating that's not a tie.

[d4_Pace]

Someone mentioned how good Midd has been against penalties this season. Let's see if it holds up when it counts.

[PaulNewman]

F&M announcers superb.  Video good but a better angle would be even better.  Great day of games.

[blooter442]

Aside from my own surprise at the outcome given Middlebury's history on penalties, never would have guessed that RPI has never been past the first weekend.

[Mr.Right]

MSU with some clinical PK's to advance
