At the moment anyway, 2026 looks like one of the best recruiting classes to ever come to Akron.

See in the Spring, sir. We have some really good incoming talent.

Soccer rules governing possession of the ball, and the fouling of the player who possesses the ball, are analogous to the Basketball rules. Not exactly the same, but pretty close. A foul called in Basketball will probably be a foul in Soccer. Hand to hands, without overt shoving, is often permitted in Soccer. Any foul in Soccer will most definitely be a foul in Basketball. Without question.

Better Zips teams than this one did not make it this far. We have been lucky this postseason. The pain comes from the knowledge that this is the year when somebody is going sneak off with the CCup.. it could have been us.

What a heartbreaking loss that was! It was all right there for the Zips to take. Much appreciation for the really good senior class! Thanks for the memories, boys! The very harsh, straight red card on Matt Dreas killed the match.

Toujours de premiere classe!

Anyone thinking Zips’ victory will come easily on Saturday is very foolish. Long-time Zips faithful have been to this stage of the tournament many times. These contests are frequently decided in either OT or PKs. Remember vs. California in 2010? Remember vs. Creighton in 2012? Remember vs. Creighton in 2015? Defeating a quality tournament opponent requires squad cohesion, maximum effort, and near flawless execution. And a little luck also helps.

Yeah. During December, it gets dark early afternoon… in Alaska.

😏 We are no longer in the MAC? Since when? They kicked us out?😏

Very much appreciate the corrections! i struggled to research the 1986 final using only my phone. I remember listening to the match on the radio. Memories fade. Did you find this information in archived media guides? Or were you in attendance? OR were you a participant?

Remember 1986!!! Current Duke coach John Kerr was the star of that team. I think he scored the lone goal in the final. Another prominent player on that 1986 Duke championship squad was Ken Lolla.

I am hearing this match is being moved to Sunday. Stay tuned.....

E ESPN+

If poor lighting bothers you, avoid the Kentucky/Saint Louis match. Billikens equalize as I am writing. 3:00 minutes left. SLU 1-1 KEN (10 men)

This was probably the most entertaining match of the evening. And I watched at least a little bit of every match.

Michigan also hit the woodwork twice. I ain't scared of Notre Dame.

Unlike Western Michigan, at least Clemson, Michigan, UNCG, Seton Hall etc. have lights.

YES! Let us not forget that either.

I also remember it being as cold as the Hubs of Hades. Like 33* and windy.

I was thinking the same thing regarding a potential Bryant/Indiana matchup.

I cannot forget it.

Wow! We would love to see that happen!

That is hardly encouraging.

Best Zips’ overall performance this season.

Probably sooner than later, NCAA Men’s Soccer will either drastically change or be eliminated altogether.
