Other notes--

Wash U's Armando Sanchez-Conde (#13) served out his 1 game suspension today for getting a red card vs NYU on Friday.

A member of the Chicago coaching staff will have to serve out a 1 game suspension vs North Park next weekend for getting a red card today vs NYU.

[Gregory Sager]

Gee, the NPU coaching staff will be popping champagne corks over that upcoming game-changer.

I see assistant coaches get tossed off the premises with red cards on a regular basis. In fact, North Central had an assistant get the heave-ho at North Park last night as well. It's irritating to see an absolutely meaningless red card like that. We were talking about it in the NPU press box, and we agreed that we'd like to see the NCAA institute the same rule for soccer that it has for baseball, which is that if an assistant coach gets ejected from a game, the head coach has to be ejected as well. It cut down sharply upon the dugout yapping once that rule went into effect, and, since a lot of the instances of people running their mouths at the ref on a soccer sideline involve assistant coaches, perhaps that rule would shut them up as well.

Especially if the head coach in college soccer got a 2 match suspension for every red card given to his or her coaching staff in addition to the suspension given to the assistant coach, it would really shut up the yapping....   BTW, the Chicago PBP person and commentator also thought that the red card/suspension system given to assistant coaches in college soccer as it stands now is silly as well and could use some changing.    Illinois Broadcasting School does a fantastic job covering the Chicago games.
