Z.I.P. and Marc from Santa Barbara will like this change...as they will be able to see game on pac 12 network will be good publicity for the zips...might help them with west coast recruits A @ZipsMSoc schedule change to pass along, the Zips' contest at Washington on Sept. 9 will now begin at 7:30 p.m. ET (4:30 p.m. PT) and will be broadcast on the Pac-12 Networks

Butler is counting down the days until they start the season with a loss at Akron

congratulations to Ezana and Marco...both were selected to the PDL team of the week (I would be remiss if I also did not say that I am also happy for Jesus "Chino" Perez...only at Akron for a semester...but I continue to wish this young man well). great job by Marco and Ezana https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/college-soccer-articles/pdl-conference-teams-of-the-week-7-4_aid44327

Dr. Z, thanks for posting the draft picks..... MLS info made me proud of the U of A

So many new players to look forward to seeing in the fall.... and yes....due to injury, I am specifically including Braden Petno with the group of players that will be coming to the Akron campus Marco and Abdi will have great senior seasons. The 3 young men that did so well in the Development academy playoffs...will be exciting. Braden Petno will surprise many. Nick, Dion, and Ivan all come from great clubs.

get better soon, Darlington https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2018/06/26/atlanta-uniteds-darlington-nagbe-out-estimated-2-3-months-due-injury

Congratulations to Aodhan https://www.uslsoccer.com/news_article/show/929896

Hopefully, Colin Biros can add another goal tomorrow to his impressive goal total it is going to be very exciting to see Colin join David Egbo and Marcel Zajac up front for the zips in the fall

Aodhan Quinn played the entire game last night for Orange County and had a goal in their 6-1 beatdown of the Tulsa Roughnecks Goal! Orange County SC 4, Tulsa Roughnecks 1. Aodhan Quinn (Orange County SC) converts the penalty with a left footed shot to the bottom right corner.

It would have been nice to have 2 future zips (Colin Biros and Sammy Tojaga) and their teams advancing to the semis However.....when they set up the quarterfinal match ups for the 8 section winner...they have sammy and real salt Lake playing Colin and Crew SC if you click on the schedule link below...you will have to move to page 2 Looks like Salt Lake and Crew is the last of the 4 games on Monday June 25 at 7:30 eastern time I am excited....for Sammy, Colin, and Carlo to join the zips in the fall (also excited about all of the other recruits !!!) 4:30 PM Pacific coast time....7:30 eastern time #5336076Real Salt Lake U-18/19SoCal Sports ComplexSoCal Sports Complex - Field 17 (Grass)map Crew SC Academy U-18/19 http://www.ussoccerda.com/sam/standings/regevent/index.php?containerId=NzcwMTMxNg==&partialGames=1#filter-table

not as exciting as Sammy and Colin's gmaes but it looks like Carlo Rittacio played 90 today http://www.ussoccerda.com/sam/standings/ss/view_game_report.php?eventId=5302326&teamId=7702537

https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/club-soccer-articles/boys-dev-acad-playoffs-standouts:-day-3_aid44260 here is what they said about young Mr. Biros Colin Biros, Crew SC Academy - Biros scored two goals in the first half in the win over Kendall SC. Crew rolled to a 6-2 win over Kendall in a game full of fireworks. The talented midfielder was firmly involved in the attacking third throughout the first half.

Zip_ME87, thanks for all of the great reports Carlo and Colin both picked as outstanding performers on day 3...the writeup on Carlo is incredible https://www.topdrawersoccer.com/club-soccer-articles/boys-dev-acad-playoffs-standouts:-day-3_aid44260 Carlo Ritaccio, BW Gottschee Academy - The score would have been much worse without Ritaccio on the field for BW Gottschee. He had a spell of a few minutes where he cut off a pass with a great sliding block then played a beautiful outlet pass to the center forward. BW Gottschee lost possession of the ball a minute later and Ritaccio had to pull off a similar manuever to prevent another RSL attack. It was a glimpse into how meaningful he is to his current team and his potential at Akron. Ritaccio is one of those players who could be an immediate impact player in college. He could be the center back for Akron that starts the attack and breaks down teams that try to bunker. He has the skill on the ball and the vision to bring something to the squad to make Akron a title contender.

Looking forward to watching this 3 young men in the fall.

Thanks for sharing this news. Happy for Chad but I also know that he will help make tOSU a better team.

http://www.espn.com/soccer/blog/the-match/60/post/3520038/usa-shows-progress-vs-france-has-hope-after-world-cup-woe "It's wonderful," midfielder Wil Trapp said. "It's not always going to be pretty. We understood that. Look, it's one of the best teams in the world, favorites for the World Cup, and I thought we adjusted really well. We scored the goal first, shocked them a little bit, and then weathered the storm." "I think it's a huge step for us as professionals, and as a group, not listening to outside noise," Trapp said. "And believing in ourselves and believing in each other in adverse situations, that's a huge experience for young players, and of melding together and continuing to grow."

https://www.uslsoccer.com/news_article/show/923564?referrer_id=2364194 Numerous young talents, such as Santi Moar and Adam Najem, showed well throughout the match, and if they can continue to combine and create, Bethlehem should be able to secure more and more points away from home this campaign.
