Some on the other side who had brought their own chairs and some standing. Bleachers were not available. Some also standing along the south bleachers (no bleachers available...just the upper chairbacks shown) and a few from the university in the lower bowl which was closed off. With the men's and women's basketball games today, I'm sure they needed to limit the areas that would need to be prepped.

Thanks @Sergeant Zip This is great news and well-deserved for Evan Bush.

Apparently I'm out of likes for today. The limit needs to be lifted for Zips Men's Soccer!!!

Absolutely!! This is how Caleb Porter and Jared Embick made me a soccer fan and such a huge fan of our team!!!

?? Me, too Buflobo.

I also love the comment on BigSoccer.com from our very own buflobo... "Our long national nightmare is over. You are welcome." [referring to Stanford's run of College Cup Championships.] Well said my friend!

The one thing that former AD Tom Wistrcil did right in his UA tenure was hire Jared Embick as Caleb Porter's successor. So glad we followed the "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" mantra. Our Zips Men's Soccer program is reaping the rewards.

Including the entire build up!!!

The watch party was awesome. If you’re local and couldn’t travel to Stanford, it was the best place to be. Cheering and celebrating with other Zips fans. Zips Athletics put up some videos on their Instagram. Well done and many thanks UA!!!

@TennZip Thanks for posting all of these great articles. I've been a bit pre-occupied with work and family and not as able to keep up with all of this as I would like. Our team deserves so much attention. I wish I could have traveled to Stanford, but it just wasn't possible with other commitments. The team knows we are with them and support them, and I'm certain our posts here and on other social media let them know we are with them. I'd also like to say that I completely agree with your comments about the watch party at the JAR tonight. Many thanks to the University of Akron and the UA Athletics Department for putting it together. Other than being at the match in person at Stanford, there is no better place locally to watch this match than with our players who didn't travel and with other Zips Men's Soccer fans. I know a few fans who are traveling to Stanford. I hope others, of whom I'm not aware, are traveling and that there will be Zips alumni and fans in California who are able to attend. We had a nice group of fans at Wake Forest who congregated together to support our team and each other and to ensure we were heard. Hopefully, the same will occur at Stanford. GO ZIPS!!!
