...Earlier this month, with little fanfare, Crew SC captain Wil Trapp achieved a small but important milestone. He passed former Crew player and Columbus native Danny O’Rourke in minutes played for the franchise. Trapp now has 12,418 minutes, which places him eighth all-time in most minutes played for Columbus and No. 1 among Columbus-area natives, a point of pride for any homegrown player....

Dillon Serna gets the equalizer for the Colorado Rapids last night... EDIT: Dillon entered the match in the 85th minute and scored in the 88th. SWEET!!! Making the most of his limited minutes.

unrelated to last night's golazo...this is a good article https://www.prosoccerusa.com/mls/columbus-crew-sc/home-field-disadvantage/

this article has some pretty good tweets in the article https://www.prosoccerusa.com/mls/watch-wil-trapp-stoppage-time-stunner-gives-columbus-crew-win-over-orlando-city/

An incredible game winning goal from CrewSC's Captain Wil Trapp last night...

OK LZip I'm bored and I'll bite. I don't care for many of these predictions. I don't think we are a fifth place team in the East. I agree we have many question marks, especially on offense, but I don't think Buffalo, BGSU or Miami are better than us. All were picked ahead of us. I do think OU is probably better. That being said we can beat all of them. To my way of thinking this predictor does not know what we have ready to put out on the field. They are unproven in many spots, but they are quality now, not like the Akron teams of old. This will be a challenging year for us. Yet we have weapons, depth and a growing sense of confidence. We are not fifth.

http://gozips.com/news/2018/5/23/akron-mens-soccer-unveils-challenging-2018-schedule.aspx the 2 games in Washington will be challenging. Glad that they have some home games at the start of the season to hopefully get some momentum

Z.I.P. and Marc from Santa Barbara will like this change...as they will be able to see game on pac 12 network will be good publicity for the zips...might help them with west coast recruits A @ZipsMSoc schedule change to pass along, the Zips' contest at Washington on Sept. 9 will now begin at 7:30 p.m. ET (4:30 p.m. PT) and will be broadcast on the Pac-12 Networks

I don't know if this article on WR transfer Jonah Morris should go in this thread... ABJ: Hoban graduate Jonah Morris transfers from Indiana to UA; former Knights star ready to play WR for Zips The article says they still don't know whether he'll be granted a hardship waiver so he can play this year. States that coming out of HS he held scholarship offers from Indiana, Michigan State, Notre Dame, Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, Kentucky, Pittsburgh, Kent State, BUGS, Miami-O, & UA.
