Official announcement

"Zips to meet Cavaliers Porter, senior midfielder Ben Zemanski and assitant coaches Jared Embick and Oliver Slawson are scheduled to be recognized to the crowd at halftime of Friday night's Cavaliers game against the Milwaukee Bucks at Quicken Loans Arena."Pretty awesome. Also, Diego got the tournaments "Most Outstanding Defensive player" but man Meves made some outrageous clutch saves time after time and gave up ZERO goals in the entire tournament. I think we know who would have had the award should the Zips have won.

I know GK's are the default votes for Defensive MVP awards, but Holy Cow, that UVa defender, Volks, was EVERYWHERE on Sunday! Must have set some record for blocked shots/passes. Just giving credit where it's due -- in fact Virgina would have had a much harder time keeping us off the scoreboard without him. He was like the Ndamukong Suh of College Cup.

+1 I don't know what year here is in, but Volks is ready for a higher level of soccer right now. And that's not to take anything away from Diego. He was superb for the last 1/2 of the season.

No doubt, that guy broke up at least 3 plays that could/should have been solid shots at goal. He really got the Rowdies going after one of them as well when he fist pumped right in our faces and did a "bring it on" motion. I loved the fierce play of that game.

I took a look on the UVa site and Mike Volk is just a junior. It looks like he transfered from Rutgers (another key Big East transfer for the Hoos).

Getting back on topic (stadium) I have to think the Women's program will probably see as big of a benefit, if not more, from the stadium improvements. UA is seriously becoming THE soccer HQ of this region, and one of the more important pockets of enthusiasm the sport enjoys throughout the country. Count me in as another new season ticket holder (x2 including my lovely wife) for next year. We didn't get to as many games as I would have liked this year, but we did manage to make the trip to Ann Arbor and really enjoyed it. As a side note, this has been quite a year for "my" soccer teams. Seattle had a great entry into MLS. Montreal won the USL-1 championship and the Blues of Birmingham City are currently on a 5 game winning streak in the EPL. Boy how I'd love to see Teal get a shot "over there" some day. Oooops I went off-topic again

Let's hope Birmingham keep up that winning form against Chelsea next weekend. Sincerely, Another MUFC fan (not quite since I was a wee lad, but close)
