Zip_ME87 Posted February 10, 2017 Report Posted February 10, 2017 (edited) ...You don’t have to follow college soccer at all to know the impact the University of Akron has had in Major League Soccer in recent years. Just rattling off a short list of names you’d recognize will tell you everything you need to know. Names like DeAndre Yedlin, Darlington Nagbe, Wil Trapp, Scott Caldwell, Darren Mattocks, Zarek Valentin and Kofi Sarkodie, who have all found success since entering the league dating back to 2010....

TennZip Posted February 18, 2017 Author Report Posted February 18, 2017 I am very happy for Victor Souto. He is in the starting lineup today for the first preseason game for the Pittsburgh Riverhounds. The Riverhounds returned their top 3 holding midfielders from last year's team. Victor is working hard and I know that all zip soccer fans are happy to see Victor in the starting lineup. The Riverhounds have another game tomorrow morning so their coach has said that each of the 20 or so healthy players would only play 45 minutes in each game. 1 Quote

In the second half lineup for the Riverhounds Brad Ruhaak is starting at outside back. He's listed as a trialist. Edited February 19, 2017 by ZipsBurgh Quote

Zip_ME87 Posted February 28, 2017 Report Posted February 28, 2017 (edited) For anyone who may have read the post that I put up about Chad Barson not being retained by Chicago Fire, including the link to the CSN Chicago article...at this time, it is not true. Decision has not yet been made is my understanding. Appears the writer may have made an assumption. Edited February 28, 2017 by Zip_ME87 Quote

Chad Barson knocking away that Louisville goal attempt in front of an otherwise empty net may be my favorite Zips sports memory of all time. Hope he catches on with someone. 1 Quote
