Ok yes now I see their later game. Thanks

Ruh roh---Baruch a 1-0 lead over W&L off a corner 3 min in...W&L #22 who was zoning on the 6 completely missed the ball and 5 minutes later W&L level. That was really bad defending from Baruch and not a good sign for the last 80.

Wow Baruch up 1-0 on W&L less than 5 minutes in..we'll see how long that lasts

Saint of Old

I call it right now.
Greatest Upset in NCAA D3 history if it happens.

I know that many NYC former players (Who left for other parts of the country)  are rooting for Baruch.

Didn't last long. W&L scored less than 8 in to tie it.

And 12 minutes in W&L is up 2-1
And 3-1 less than 15 minutes in. I suspect this isn't going to be an upset. Baruch is getting over run at the moment.

Also, this is the reason many of these NYC players go to different schools around the country.

Problem is that when these really good teams bring on their 2nd string in NCAA games, these boys are coming in hotter than starters and have a point to prove.
This one could get ugly.

Zimmerman with a hat trick, score now 4-1.

Don't think so. Generals are already into their bench. Figure it'll get deeper as the game goes on trying to stay fresh and take out the possibility of injury unless Baruch does something. But with only the one big striker up front, they don't seem at all threatening.

FYI, upon playing Webster, St Joseph's, and Rosemont....Chicago, NYU, and Amherst will have the top 3 SoS's at .692, .675, and .664, respectively.

I assume you are exaggerating to make the point that playing teams that we subjectively do not consider to be strong opponents can still help your SOS (or not hurt it as much as it maybe should) because of how it is calculated.  This is true, but the effect isn't nearly as extreme as you imply with those numbers. And in actuality, Amherst's SOS will drop fractionally due playing Rosemont.

Amherst: 16 games played with .638 SOS
Rosemont: .719 Win Pct., .441 OWP
Contribution to Amherst's SOS: .719 OWP, .441 OOWP  >>>  2/3 (.719) + 1/3 (.441) = .626
   (note that this is less than Amherst's current SOS, so it will pull the SOS down)
Amherst's updated SOS:  [ 16 (.638) + 1 (.626) ] / 17 = .637  SOS

Chicago: 18 games played with .649 SOS
Webster: .905 Win Pct., .469 OWP
Contribution to Chicago's SOS: .905 OWP, .469 OOWP  >>>  2/3 (.905) + 1/3 (.469) = .760
Chicago's updated SOS:  [ 18 (.649) + 1 (.760) ] / 19 = .655  SOS

NYU: 16 games played with .633 SOS
St. Joe's .895 Win Pct., .541 OWP
Contribution to NYU's SOS: .895 OWP, .541 OOWP  >>>  2/3 (.895) + 1/3 (.541) = .777
NYU's updated SOS:  [ 16 (.633) + 1 (.777) ] / 17 = .641  SOS

Actually I quoted the numbers exactly from the NCAA site that @deiscanton provided 2-3 weeks ago.  No exaggeration or point I was trying to make.

Generals up 5-1 at the half. Could have been more, but you have to be a Generals or Bearcats fan to keep watching this one.

Yup, especially with this person operating the camera - making me sick quickly moving back and forth.

Great, first game in and my bracket is already busted!  :(

I put my first half notes in the 2021 Games Notes thread.  Done and dusted, not even close really.  More goals will be had for W&L.

Just as a matter of consistency, is there a preference where my game notes go?  In the thread I mentioned, or here?  Will do whatever.
