early scores from Monday night from NCAA.com #7 Pittsburgh with an impressive 3-0 win over #6 West Virginia. Pitt beat Georgetown in first game. They have been super impressive. Florida International bounced back with a 1-0 win over St. John's at 82:50 , Notre Dame leads Michigan State 3-1 (update - Notre Dame ended up winning 3-2) at 73:48, Cleveland State trails UIC 1-0 (update - nice comeback..Cleveland State ended up winning 2-1)

good student crowd tonight they have not posted the 3rd goal yet... great run and pass by Dyson Clapier Fitz got low to the ground for a spectacular header goal

Dyson Clapier was man of the match

Welcome to Akron, Josh Hallenberger Gyuwon Chong is very good

really sorry first half of soccer. Captain Will Jackson did not mark his man on the corner kick and Akron trails 1-0

comments from the VCU coach after their season opener Their writeup says that the Akron-VCU game will be available on Espn Plus https://vcuathletics.com/news/2022/8/25/mens-soccer-rams-drop-season-opener-at-14-marshall-5-0.aspx

John Krysinsky is a well respected Pittsburgh area soccer writer.

Thursday night was not the best night for the other MAC teams. Northern Illinois lost 3-2 to San Francisco. Western Michigan lost 2-0 to Butler. Chicago State was a pleasant surprise as they battled the Northwestern Wildcats to a 3-3 tie. Indiana vs. Clemson is on ESPNU right now (7 to 9 pm eastern)

William Portman took control of the zips instagram stories yesterday. William Portman is a very likable guy. I am very glad that he is an Akron U. Zip. William can play outside back...and he can also sub in at center back. Speaking of center backs, Joel Sangwa is simply outstanding. Rugged defender and he makes great decisions passing the ball. Gyuwon Chong also looks like a great addition.

does their field even have lights? It is so dark.

good article from Florida International student newspaper FIU really recruits from all over the world.... They are a legitimate top 20 team. https://panthernow.com/2022/08/23/fiu-mens-soccer-season-preview-eyes-on-a-national-title/

The Zips back 4 and GK will need to be very strong Thursday night. FIU will play in a pretty good league (American Athletic Conference) in 2022. FIU had 2 forwards selected for the pre season all conference team

the link to live video....says that the game will be available to watch on you tube

I think this is Nathan Ferguson. Listed as a 6'3 forward . I like tall forwards (for set pieces). https://www.mlssoccer.com/players/nathan-ferguson/ the tweet has a good photo of Nathan Ferguson for some reason...when I copy tweet, I get Faufel and ferguson...Nathan is 2nd photo ...he is the commit to Akron welcome Nathan Born in Glen Carbon, Illinois. A standout striker from our @STLCITYAcademy who notched 9 goals in @MLSNEXT action last fall.

In a March 14, 2022 FC Cincinnati game, new 2023 recruit Alen Kapic scored a goal with an assist from Akron zip 2022 fall new player Ashton Kamdem. Ashton Kamdem also scored a goal in that same game. I have said it before....Ashton Kamdem really sounds like an exciting addition to the zips team this fall. I sure hope that Ashton Kamdem sees a lot of playing time this fall at left defensive back. Sunday, March 14 U19 | Midwest United 0, FC Cincinnati Academy 6 The U19s had a dominant performance in Grand Rapids, Michigan, as six different goal scorers led to the rout. Kimball Jackson (assisted by Danny Samways), Alen Kapic (Ashton Kamdem), Josh Head (Max Miller), Ashton Kamdem (Owen Parrish), Tre Jervier (Diego Hoenderkamp) and Caleb Frakes (Carson Turpin) tallied the six goals in the Orange and Blue’s strong outing. Jack Moxom saved a penalty kick, holding a clean sheet in goal.

Top Drawer soccer says that the zips have two more recruits for the class of 2023. By my count, that is 7 already. I do not remember having so many committed more than 12 months away from the next season. Great jobs by the coaches in recruiting and getting kids committed to Akron Both young men are rated 3 stars by TDS. Nathan Ferguson is currently #181 in the country. He was written up by TDS in April 2022 for having 2 goals in an MLS Next game. SIMA Recruiting Roundup: August 22-28 BOYS NCAA DIVISION I Class of 2023 F Nathan Ferguson (St. Louis City SC) committed to Akron. M Alen Kapic (FC Cincinnati) committed to Akron.

season opening opponent FIU...is #23 traditional powers Stanford, North Carolina and Akron are not in the top 25 https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/college-soccer-national-rankings/men
