Big Dance 2022 - Let's Go!

[MNBob]

Gustavus advances on PK's over UWEC! Very physical game, fairly evenly played game.

UWEC has a bright future. Excited to see the Gusties back in the sweet 16!

Keepers stopped 7 of 14 PKs. Amazing! UWEC keeper came in cold off the bench. Hate when games end with PKs but hard fought game by both teams. Would like to see the foul that resulted in a PK and tieing goal for GAC. Thought it was a bad call from the stands but I admit my bias.

ONU takes out North Park in PKs.

Stevens and Rowan headed to spot kicks in a minute here.

This is nuts. Messiah looks headed to PKs, as well.

[Saint of Old]

When 2 Champions go to penalties anything can happen.
Williams shutting people up with another tie with a good chance to advance.

[StevensPBP05-10]

Ducks survive, 4-1 on PKs.  2 saves by Cross and made unreachable by Stevens' 4th shooting first.
Seen a lot of miraculous Stevens escapes to a result in my day, but this might have been the iffiest one. 

[Hopkins92]

Wow.

What a bummer.

Messiah out   

[Kuiper]

Williams beats Messiah on PKs.  Big keeper does his job.

[Saint of Old]

And then Williams beats Messiah with yet another tie.
1995 Champions on to the sweet 16 after taking out Goliath.

Williams shutting people up with another tie with a good chance to advance.

I was thinking about that during the overtime; the craziness of their controversial selection and then them coming to a team that was undefeated and arguably the in-form team in the country.  That's a tough result for Messiah who dominated play but couldn't knock the door down. Williams competed well in the part of the OTs that I watched and their penalties were great.

The craziness of the game, personified.

[Hopkins92]

PA teams just had a bad karmic moment... Dips and Falcons go down in PKs.

Cruel game, man.

[Hopkins92]

(And that's what I meant about staggering these games... That was nucking futs to follow. )

[Another Mom]

Wow, that was impressive on Williams' part. While I am not  yet eating my hat, I definitely tip my hat to them. I thought Messiah was going to win it all.

[LetteroftheLaw]

Committee looking genius with their at large bid selections....

[upthepanthers]

After the pens, and F&M player seemed to sprint over to the Oneonta bench resulting in numerous cards and some sort of fight. Tough way to end your season.

At least 2 of the 5 F&M kickers got in the face of the goalie after their kicks.

Just... Don't do that, man.
