yazan07 Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 There is an intra-squad scrimmage happening later on today (Thursday) at 7:30. It was mentioned in the middle this article on Gozips and then never mentioned again (they really shouldn't be surprised when no one shows up). I noticed that it hadn't been discussed here and I thought I would bring it to everyone's attention. I would go myself but I have class. Someone else should probably go and then come back and tell me how the team looks. It should be a good game to watch because it is the one opportunity to see everyone play (except maybe all 36 goalkeepers don't make it into the match) and to get a feel for where each of the players are at this point. We'll also probably get a projected starting line up for the rest of the season. Oh, and did anyone get any info from media day? We never heard back from that either.

icchamp1 Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 They also mailed/emailed out a matching letter about the event to each season ticket holder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anyone received their tickets yet? What's the scarf look like? Hope mine arrives before I depart for Cali. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, it's not like anyone would know about that unless they were looking for it on Youtube. Why wasn't it posted to Gozips? Or why wasn't it shared on facebook or twitter via one of the athletic department accounts? These are things people want to see but they make little effort to bring them to anyone's attention.

GoZipsGoZips Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 GoZips.com has a wrap-up of the Meet the Team Event... and the game... good pics of the event too... so I'll cover what's not there for those who asked questions... Also... I'll post the pics and vidz on YouTube... as that's the World's Knowledgebase... and ZipsNation is not. Besides... I'm out of space to post stuff here. YouTube Video will be titled: ZipsNation 2011 Update - Meet the Team The Stadium looks great... no longer a tall skinny structure... it's wide... and looks like a legit GRANDstand. (see the video) The Soccer Scarfs are cool... "This is Akron" on one side... "2010 National Champions" on the other side... with the "A-Roo" logo and "Adidas" logo at the ends. (See the video). David Mayer was injured before the game... and was icing a foot. The Starters were basically as we guessed... in one of the scenarios of the "2011 Lineup Guesses" posting... with Akiel Barrett starting. I did not see Luke Holmes... but I have shots of him in an Orange Mesh top... but that could have been the second half when the lineups were all mixed up. My focus tonight was testing a new camera and lens… so I watched the game behind the lens a lot. The starters were: Barson, Gallego, Trapp, Quinn (looks great!), Mattocks, Caldwell, Yedlin. Meves and Balogun... that's 10... missing someone... but I assume that Holmes and Mayer will start. The team can score... same as in practices... let's hope they continue that. Pics of the Stadium and Scarf will be on YouTube. Note to Athletic Department: WE HAVE NOT RETIRED A NUMBER IN 50 YEARS... is that because we haven't had any good players... ?

Very nice video. I was there and must say you captured the event very well! Dude! The vid was awesome. Has anyone NOT seen the "That's cold", sayeth the Head Coach. Probably <60F (water temp), since it's only 60-65 in the summer. Have to admit, I was amazed to see Wistercil in there, nice, Boss . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
