"I love the balance we had with eight different goal scorers. It is always important to get the win on the road and we are pleased with the victory. Now we have to get prepared for a big match against a hot Western Michigan team on Thursday." Nine different Zips posted assists on the evening, including the first career point for freshman Levi Stephens (Akron, Ohio).

I don't begin to completely understand everything that goes into RPI. I was really worried that Chicago State would hurt Akron badly in the RPI. When I looked at RPI when the game was going on, Chicago State was #198 in RPI .....(their record coming into the game was 1-7-3) While the game was going on, below are Akron's numbers RPI ranking #18 strength of schedule (SOS) #22 opponent SOS #15 overall RPI .6047 (this is the percentage that I really don't understand) After the game, here are Akron's numbers RPI ranking #21 SOS #47 opponent SOS #20 overall RPI .5917 as a result of playing Akron, Chicago State RPI improves to #197

2-0-1 Zips (in the MAC) at 3-0-1 (in the MAC) Western Michigan huge road game......on Thursday great performance tonight by the zips

32:45 goal by left defensive back Ashton Kamdem. This freshman is outstanding !!! 2-0 zips

Early lead for the zips..... 17 minute goal by Shooky....assist to outstanding left back Ashton Kamdem somewhat related, the Zips got a ton of help this afternoon in DeKalb, IL Western Michigan has been the early season juggernaut in the MAC. 9-1 record overall, 3-0 in the MAC convincing 3-0 home win over Northern Illinois ; 1-0 road win at Bowling Green and a 7-1 beatdown of Chicago State today, in DeKalb, NIU battled Western Michigan to a 0-0 result. Western Michigan led 17-3 in shots and 7-0 in shots on goal. gritty effort by the NIU huskies.

I did not know that to corrupt a legendary Mr. T quote....I pity da fool....that hires Larry https://www.usfca.edu/news/usf-names-new-director-athletics#:~:text=USF has hired Larry Williams,31.

Give Coach Simonetti a chance. This roster is all on Noreen. Noreen knew that she would be fired after this season....and did the Zips dirty with resigning for another job in the summer. Also, you can blame Larry Williams and George Van Horne for giving Noreen a multi year contract. Noreen should have been fired after last year's 3-15-1 but Akron could not afford to buy out her contract for the fall 2022 season. Noreen, Loser Larry and George VH......did not represent Akron Athletics in a good manner.

https://gozips.com/news/2022/10/6/mens-soccer-no-19-akron-earns-1-1-draw-at-bowling-green "I thought our intensity was very good from start to finish," Akron head coach Jared Embick commented. "We had a bad moment for their goal not making a strong play in the box. That cost us, but we had many good moments in final third, we just didn't execute the final pass. We will take a point on the road as a good result. We wanted to win and played well enough to win; we just have to execute better. We now move on quickly and need to get ready for Chicago State on another road trip

BG came into the game with a 2-4-3 recrod. They scored 6 goals in one game against Oakland. In their other 8 games,. they scored 4 goals in total. They are not a good team. BG had a better game plan....and their players won the 50/50 balls. This is a bad result.

Akron has been sucked into playing BG soccer. (balls in the air and physical soccer). Changes have to be made a halftime. Zips need to keep possession and win more 50/50 balls. In the last 30 minutes, the ball was probably in BG half of the field....70% to 75% of the time. Great step in interception by Ashton Kamdem led to the Clapier goal. Kamdem has really improved the zips quality at left back.

Captain Sammy, Lead the zips to victory !!!

In the MLS Next tournament in late June/early July, James was written up twice in subscriber only Top Drawer soccer articles July 6 premium top drawer soccer D James Buebendorf, St. Louis SG U16 - Bubendorf was the embodiment of an attacking full back, running relentlessly up the left side, providing dangerous crosses — while also nicking a goal or two for himself. june 25, 2022 MLS next premium top drawer soccer James Buebendorf, St. Louis SG U16 Bubendorf made an impact immediately. On St. Louis’ first attack the left back probed down the left wing cut past his defender and placed a simple cross into the 6 yard box. It was dutifully tucked away a moment showing blanks offensive quality.

Joshua Bartels is another recruit from the Columbus Crew Academy he played all 90 minutes for Crew Academy U17 in MLS Next final and scored a goal. this is really shaping up to be an outstaning recruiting class. Keep up the great work in recruiting......coaches https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/club-soccer-articles/philadelphia-new-england-win-mls-next-cups_aid50965 A penalty from Taha Habroune and an early second half finish from Joshua Bartels had Columbus up 2-0 50 minutes in to the final versus Philadelphia Union.

Great team win last night. Joel Sangwa is my mid season pick for team MVP. He brings such stability and skill and confidence to the center back position.

Sam Tojaga in the starting lineup. so happy to have Captain Sam in the starting lineup

This afternoon result Western Michigan 7 Chicago State 1 that means that Akron is 2nd in the MAC.. going into tonight western Michigan 3-0 2. Akron 0-0 tie for 3rd bowling green, Northern Illinois and Chicago State are all 0-1

good post.... every year, they do seem to have one horrible clunker at home. Last year, it was a saturday night home game against one of the Georgia teams. Zips are 0-3 in the last 2 years against NIU. Zips must come out and dominate on Sunday night. Zips must be 1-0.....when they go play at BGSU.

since I proved the other day...that I could not correctly type the name of 8 teams and I completely lost the faith of Letsgopzips, I am just going to include a link to the NIU schedule they have a record of 3-3-3 go zips.com.....shows that this game will be on ESPN Plus !!! (hallelujah ) below, the NIU schedule, I have included a link to the MAC schedule page Western Michigan hosts Chicago State Sunday at 1 pm. By the time that the zips and the huskies take the field, Western Michigan will likely be 3-0 in the MAC. of their first 4 MAC games, this game against Northern Illinois is their only MAC home game of the first 4 . After hosting NIU, the zips must travel to BGSU, Chicago State and Western Michigan. The zips must come out motivated.....and they must protect their home turf at all costs. https://niuhuskies.com/sports/mens-soccer/schedule/2022 https://getsomemaction.com/calendar.aspx?path=msoc&season=2022

I am just getting a black screen on the digital network.... no picture, no sound freaking amateur hour why is this game not on ESPN Plus?

my bad.....I have corrected !!! I am trying to get used to sleeping with a CPAP....and I am not getting much sleep....GRRR Getting old stinks !!!!

Duquesne comes to Akron tonight with a 6-0-2 record season opener - 1-0 win over Michigan 1-0 win at Canisius 2-1 win at Robert Morris 2-0 home win over James Madison 7-0 home win over (correction)....Howard University 1-1 tie at Wright State 2-1 home win over Loyola Chicago 0-0 tie at Massachusetts Duquesne has only allowed 3 goals in their 8 games. I would think that they have to be among the best in the NCAA in allowing the fewest goals. Most importantly, Duquesne is 20th in RPI (as of this morning). Akron is 26...(as of this morning). Zips must protect their home turf and get a win tonight.
