NCAA TOURNAMENT 2024

[PaulNewman]

In the spirit of showing fairness in being grossly presumptuous in dishing out coaching advice, if I could be Jay Martin for one day, I would move Rodriguez up as a lone striker and move Guerra and Brooker into the midfield where they could actually help get a hold of the ball and maintain some possession and set up others.

Also, in fairness, the Williams field looks great...and the NCAA logo at midfield is a nice touch.  And the Conn Coll field looks better than I've seen it before...also appears to be a great crowd in New London.

MWU better get their goal in the next 10-15 min....OWU looking far more confident as they get deeper into this one.

Stevens ties it up in the 90th minute!

Amherst and Stevens going to OT

They got it. Wonder goal. Stat line greatly favoring UMW.

[Hopkins Walk-On]

Hopkins looks to be missing Mikkel Andersen, their all-CC center back. He limped off the field yesterday and didn't start today.

Just going through Mary Washington's roster, no wonder they are the class of d3 soccer this year.  Horde of graduate students that have started and played every game.  Never bet against experience.

I mean thats gotta be a foul before the Williams winner right?  Egregious missed call

Watched it back and it is clear that he took the man and not the ball.

At first, thought the goalie could have done better, but he was left 1-v-1 by the CBs who got beat to the ball in the air in transition. Nice finish.

Wickedly poor call—-fire the ref

The stats were lospided I'm sure, but OWU played a much better second half and almost scored several times.  Took a great strike to win it.  Congrats to Coach Martin.  Set records that may never be duplicated.

Phenomenally competitive match between Williams and Messiah.  Extremely physical.  Nothing looked dirty but it was very physical.  Looked like an Elite 8 game.

What are we even doing here?  How does that foul not get whistled?

certainly a foul

I missed that play trying to watch 3 games.  Definitely egregious.  Haven't looked at the stats but the ref called very little the whole game.  Big, big miss.  And I couldn't make out the number of the Williams player but looks like yet another 6'4, 6'5 NESCAC dude.
