Great Day to be a Zips Mens Soccer fan


Recommended Posts

I just have to shout ... WHAT A GREAT DAY to be a ZIPS MENS SOCCER FAN

  • 2015 Post Season Journey begins at home with MAC Tourney semifinals tonight.
  • Darlington Nagbe and DeAndre Yedlin playing for the USA in a World Cup Qualifier.

I wonder if anyone in Buchtel Hall or the AD's Office is aware? :eek:

Maybe, if everything goes well, someone at the ABJ will notice tonight. So far seems crickets are chirping.

But I’m also reminded of something Nagbe said in August about his time at Akron in college. “I won a national championship at Akron with my best friends, and I’m still friends with all of them, and I remember it,” he said, hovering on those last three words, his eyes lost in memory. After a brief pause, he continued, the idea seeming to coalesce from fragments into words as he spoke.

“And you can win a championship, but if you didn’t have fun all season, I feel like you don’t remember it,” he concluded. In a similar vein, Nagbe said in our follow-up phone call, “If I’m not enjoying the game, then there’s no point in me playing.”

No matter what happens, Nagbe is certain of one thing: he wants to end up back where he feels most at home. “I’d like to be back home playing professional soccer in Cleveland,” he says. “I consider myself a Cleveland kid even though I was born in Liberia. Ohio is my home.”

“Beautiful pitch. Fantastic weather. Now f'ing get better,” bellows Caleb Porter with a wry smile during a training session the next week.

I am excited to say that with my schedule conflicts which is hard to see weeknight games and even Saturday games, I will FINALLY be in attendance for tomorrow's MAC Championship game.

EDIT: Should be a good crowd. Went to buy my ticket online, and could only find GA tickets.
