Perhaps the College Spring League is following MLSNEXT Pro rules... https://www.mlsnextpro.com/standings/#season=2022&live=true Shootouts • All matches that end in a tie will be followed by a penalty kick shootout • Both teams will receive 1 point for the tie • The winner of the shootout will receive one additional point Tiebreakers 1. Total Number of Wins (in regulation) 2. Goal Differential 3. Goals For 4. Shootout Wins 5. Away Goals Differential 6. Away Goals For 7. Home Goals Differential 8. Home Goals For 9. Fewest Disciplinary Points 10. Coin Toss (tie of two Clubs) or Drawing of Lots (tie of three or more Clubs)

Diogo Pacheco scored his first professional goal last night for MNUFC 2. Turned out to be the eventual winner in a 3-2 win.

Scenarios for the match v BUGS. Goal Differential Akron (7 for, 3 against): 4 BUGS (3 for, 1 against): 2 Akron W, Akron wins group Akron 9 pts BUGS 5 pts BUGS W, BUGS wins group Akron 6 pts BUGS 8 pts Draw, Akron wins PKs, Akron wins group Akron 8 pts BUGS 6 pts Draw, BUGS wins PKs, Akron wins group if goal differential (4-2) or total wins in regulation (2-1) is the tiebreaker Akron 7 pts BUGS 7 pts

I despise PKs. Soccer has a perfectly good point system and tiebreaker system. Why make up a new system that rewards teams for parking the bus and taking a game to PKs. Beyond awful!

2 points for a "win on pk's"; 1 point for a "loss on pk's". UGH!!!

Dayton 2-1 W v Louisville 0-1 L v Marshall Louisville 1-2 L v Dayton 1-2 L v Ohio State Marshall 1-0 W v Dayton 0-0 T v Ohio State Ohio State 2-1 W v Louisville 0-0 T v Marshall

Thanks @fknbuflobo. Fun afternoon/evening in Pittsburgh supporting the Zips in their 3-2 exhibition win over RMU and then attending a 2-0 Riverhounds win over Loudoun. Great catching up with Robby Dambrot and Shane Wiedt and their families. Especially enjoyed talking with Keith, Donna, and Alysse Dambot whom I miss around Akron.
