Zips vs Penn State

[Staton14]

Battle of #25 vs #23...Scoreless after 12 minutes.

Seems like we can hardly schedule a quality team anymore that doesn't have at least one former Akron player on the roster.

I just noticed that they had a former player. How many opponents is that this year?

[fknbuflobo]

We are too tentative going forward. And somebody had best cover #5Connor Maloney.

Maloney has been very good for them all year.

Did Brett Gravatt play defense last year? I don't remember him playing midfield

[fknbuflobo]

Very shaky at HT!!!!!

Very shaky at HT!!!!!

Jake has 4 saves. Is that why Ruhaak was pulled for Cregan?

EDIT: Reviewing the play by play, there were 2 saves before Cregan came in and 2 after.

Gravatt played D last year for Zips.

Najem lucky to avoid a card on scissor tackle vs. Maloney>

Really? I think he got the yellow card.

[fknbuflobo]

I did not see the yellow on the video. Gametracker says he got one. It could have been straight red, really.

[Zip_ME87]

Well, looks like MAC AQ or nothing.

Riley Grant always had potential...hate it that a former Akron player hurts us

from PSU twitter

GOOOOAL! Minutillo header on the near left post from Riley Grant and Brandon Savino. Great play and #PennState leads 1-0 in the 81st.

their twitter said their goalie made a great save on sean sepe shot

[bigzipguy]

After going winless in their last 9 meetings with us(including 5 losses) . I had a feeling they were due.

[bigzipguy]

Make that 0 wins, 7 losses and 2 ties in their previous 9 meetings versus the Zips , prior to this match. This according to their website

Always liked Riley Grant. Enourmous potential.
