And the Generals get the first. A beautiful team effort. A solid run, couple beautiful passes and Adrian Zimmerman is now the D3 record holder for goals in a single tournament. A fantastic goal slightly against the run of play.

Halftime. Generals up 1-0. Absorbing pressure well. Messiah has the possession but not much more than a few half chances. Generals look dangerous any time they get space or a one on one in Messiah's half, but Messiah's possession and ball movement... you just can feel their belief that one goal is nothing and their system will pay off. Every time they work those angles and runs. Generals have dealt with it well, but a lot of soccer to go.

And the Generals get a second on a great individual effort. Justa screamer from 22 yds out. Messiah left too much room and the Generals make them pay. 2-0

The Tufts-Camels game is BONKERS. I was out on a walk with Tufts up 1-0 in the first. It is now 3-2 CC with most of the second half still to go.

And as I was scrolling through highlights, Conn scores again! 4-2.

Two heavyweights are definitely on the ropes here.

And the ref fails to play advantage and basically takes a goal off the board for Conn. Should be 5-2 and game over.

Huh. Soccer Gods love the Camels today. VERY long clearance from the Conn keeper sends two Camels on one Jumbo and they are clinical with one pass, one touch and a goal. This Shuma kid has two goals on the day and has been a terror all game against the Tufts backline.

Gonna take a miracle for Tufts. About 20 mins left, 5-2.

I've been impressed by the Tufts broadcasters all weekend. Are they students? If so, that impresses me even more.

What's the last time one could say this: Messiah and Tufts both down by 2 goals in the second half of tournament games. Who knew?

And there you go. Tufts had been hammering down on the Camels back line and it results in a get back.

5-3 with about 20 to go.

HOLY BONKERS BATMAN!!

5-4

Now it's 5-4, Camels.

This is crazy.

W&L just PK'ed itself into a 3-0 lead with 11 and a half to go.

3-0. Zimmerman crushes an earned penalty kick. 11:39 to play.

These games are absolutely nuts

And the Generals finally have a defensive breakdown that allows Messiah a pk goal. 3-1 9:30 to go.

jknezek

And Messiah blows an amazing chance to make it a 1 goal game. Getting a bit desperate as Messiah is just killing it down their right side.

Messiah just had an odd-man rush into the box result in a kick over the frame with six minutes to go.

Thought McDonald should've shot that one. Should be 3-2, really.
