Xavier had a record crowd of 1,213 for the game. http://www.goxavier.com/sports/m-soccer/re.../042212aaa.html

So far, the NBC deal with the MLS is working out well MLS on NBC Sports Doing Good, Not Historic, TV Ratings Thus Far Averaging 106k per game, beating Fox Soccer's coverage by 55%. A 100k average is their goal for the year. If the MLS continues to do well on NBC Sports, maybe they'll consider showing college soccer games? It sucks to watch the NCAA tournament only through a university provided stream.

The high school kids that don't know how to use google or bing should go to Can't State.

Using scout or rivals would be going backwards. Anyone with a brain knows how to use google. If you google Akron Zips, zipsnation is usually top 3. I think it looks worse when schools don't have an independent site and are forced to use rivals or scout.

I can not find a single Zip playing in the USL-Pro or NASL, anyone else? Devon McKenney isn't showing up on this year's roster for Carolina.

Last year, the blue section and the chair back season tickets sold out before the season started so don't procrastinate.

Instead of expanding, they turned the entire west goal side into reserved seating. $100 for 8 home games ($12.5 a game) isn't bad, but you might as well pay $10 more ($1.25 per game) for the side bleachers. It's too bad they couldn't expand this year.

Bobby Lowder has a shady past http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bobby_Lowder

Is this suppose to be a bad thing? He forgot to mention a couple Zips still playing in the NFL: Reggie Corner and Charlie Frye. I don't believe the last few games the Zips played should affect anyone's judgement towards this year. The team quit on Ianello.

Perry Kitchen got an assist today. http://www.mlssoccer.com/matchcenter/2012-...?videoID=182685 Chris Korb started and his man scored a goal http://www.mlssoccer.com/matchcenter/2012-...?videoID=182680 Both Nanchoff and Mattocks are not on the roster for Vancouver today. Teal Bunbury is on the bench.

it looks like we play in 3 tournaments this year. 8 home games for $75 is still a great deal. Time to start planning tailgating themes and Tifos

last year we held a small tournament which gave us 2 extra home games. It looks like we're going to 2 this year.

hope we don't have any conflicts with tailgating for that game.

Here's some more information about next year's schedule:

Akron gets another at the 20th

Yedlin scores first goal in the 15th minute. He's playing fantastic

70% chance of rain from 7 to 9.

I wonder what the hold up is for the schedule? Is the MAC adding another team?

newyorkredbulls Academy and #7 2013 ranked midfielder Adam Najem commits to Akron. According to Topdrawersoccer

I'm sold on this year's Zips team going undefeated. Champs in 2012. Bowling Green is getting better but they need to be more consistent. Same with Buffalo. I'll do a better job keeping track of the MAC vs Big 10 games this year. I believe we're the better conference in 2012.
