the riverhounds did a nice news release on Beto (has a picture) https://www.riverhounds.com/news/2025/04/01/ydrach-team-of-the-week-mertz/ Ydrach assisted the Hounds’ second goal in their 2-0 win Saturday night over Birmingham Legion FC, slipping a well-weighted pass through the middle for Danny Griffin to apply a sliding finish. Spending most of the match at center back before moving to a holding midfield role, Ydrach also won all five of his aerial duels, claimed possession a team-high nine times and led the Hounds with nine clearances. this tweet.....will show Beto's assist......

Congratulations to Teal Bunbury. On Saturday, Teal became only the 14th player in history to play in 400 MLS games. Teal Bunbury has truly had an outstanding pro career. https://www.tennessean.com/videos/sports/nashvillesc/2025/03/29/mls-nashville-sc-teal-bunbury-400-games/82725205007/

The Italian midfielder came to Colorado Springs in late January from rival New Mexico United. He has three goals in four games for the Switchbacks, tied with Dhillon for the team lead

She was put on leave on Feb. 14. Today is March 28. It should not take that long for an investigation. I know that there is not a permanent athletic director. However, someone needs to step up and make a decision. If they don't do something soon, the May transfer window will be upon us.

Zips played 4 exhibition games this spring. in 3 of the games, the zips did not score

Attendance has dfinitely dropped off for soccer. You write about sustained success for the last 20+ years. However, Akron did not win an NCAA soccer game for a 5 year period. (2019 to 2023). Also, there has been very little done to promote Akron soccer to the students or the Northeast Ohio soccer community.

https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/article/?categoryId=21&articleId=54390&articleTitle=college-rookies-in-the-usl-championship Beto Ydrach, Pittsburgh Riverhounds – It’s been quite the roundabout journey for Ydrach, a former Red Bulls and Orlando City SC Academy player. He originally began his college career at UCF in 2019, which he missed due to injury. Possessing an extra year of eligibility due to the pandemic, Ydrach excelled with Akron last fall, leveraging a Big East Defensive Player of the Year season into an opportunity with the Riverhounds. He’ll provide depth at a number of different spots, including fullback.

Thanks much for the updates.
