NCAA TOURNAMENT 2024

[boomer]

Early tournaments MVP, Will Joseph?? Allowed 2 goals over three games along with many pk saves.

Solid for Joseph, feels like a good time to mention Middlebury freshman Keagan Harder has scored in all 3 NCAA games (4 total goals including 2 game winning goals).... coming off the bench

Shades of Adrian Zimmerman from Washington and Lee back in 2021

I fear that these Texas boys squandered their first half chances and gave Babson some life in this second half... wouldn't be surprised if the Beavers (what a foolish mascot) nip one off a set piece.

Quite literally seconds later... the Beavers are on top off a set piece goal.

Awful goalkeeping might I add. Looked like Satpathy (dressed in his winter tights and neck warmer) just punched the ball directly into the goal straight off the corner. He may have been screened by the Babson attacker but still should've done better here.

This weather seems to be affecting the Trinity boys quite negatively.

Not sure what has happened to Trinity but they look much less dominant after the break. Still in the game with Knutson on the field however

Not sure of the weather, but I think the 1st the gk knocked off a Babson player. Popcorn soccer, unfortunately.

First time watching Trinity this year and I couldn't be more underwhelmed by their performance. The Trinity Bantams could compete with them in this second half.

Cap tipped to Babson, they left the neck warmers at home and came with a game plan, stuck to it and it's paying off. Trinity showing no fight. This ones a wrap.

Unrelated but shoutout to David Saward adding some great color commentary on this Midd broadcast. He should do the final 4.

Minor detail.... the relegation bound Trinity Bantams could NOT compete against Trinity TX.

I would add that I think this referee is awful.

SC.

This is a terrible take. Trinity dominated the first half and conceded a scrappy corner and a good team goal. Still should have scored at least 1. Credit to Babson but over the 90 minutes this game has been pretty even.

Credit to Denison - obviously came in with a plan and executed it. Play disciplined D and go for set pieces/long throws.
#17 going down for UMW in the 1st half definitely impacted the play of the team. Both him & #12 were not going to be available tomorrow if they did advance so the chances of beating Conn/Kenyon would have been diminished.

Tough end to the career of all the seniors & 5th years (including my guy) but super proud of them.

Yes and no. If you only watched the second half you would definitely wonder how Trinity got here. They have not been good. But I agree, they looked good in the first half.

Not sure what happened to make such a difference. I don't see Babson really stepping up, just Trinity looking like a different team.

Nothing to be ashamed about after a fantastic season.

Well as the broadcast announcer mentioned more than once Trinity went to their bus at halftime to stay warm?

Do you mean that the Trinity Badtams should not have been the 9th NESCAC team in the Tournament or should they be relegated to the Little East Conf or maybe Landmark??? At least in the Landmark, we would not have see any of their games.

I've seen that work both ways. Apparently it didn't work for Trinity. Bummer because they had a great season and I think they had the quality to keep going. Just didn't show in the second half and I hate to see that.

Good job for Babson to stay with their plan. Very workmanlike effort. Got the job done and on they go.
