Blue & Gold Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Well, that was ugly. Hope we can learn from that & not pee down our legs the next time we see a zone. It's awesome Coach Groce is standing with the Rowdies for the alma mater & walked around in the stands giving them all high fives. Very cool! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LZIp Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Cool seeing Groce in the crowd with the students. Lets hope we can get back to the JAR of the old days next season. He, the staff, and the team deserve more support. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zipsrule Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 I assume Ohio owns the tie breaker if they go on to lose? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Let'sGoZips94 Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 That may have been literally the perfect game script for Akron. 2010 Akron soccer lost to CSU on their crap field. They went on to never lose again that season, claiming the National Title. They had played some uninspired soccer leading up to that game, and an opponent finally took advantage. That game was a wake up call to the team. For this squad, Trimble was excused from the team a few games ago. They go on this run of playing great teamism ball, knocking off the Bobkittens of BFE Ohio during that stretch. They head into Cleveland now with a winning streak AND having been tested with NOTHING going their way. Heck of a win. Always good to finish the regular season with a W. Awesome seeing Groce in the stands after the game. Now let's go beat Canada in Cleveland! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyalZIP Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Wow. Wow wow wow. I’m not sure how they pulled that one out, they felt more out of this one than the WMU game, at least they could score a bit that night. Anyway, glad to have the win but they’ve obviously got to be much better Thursday. The fun begins now. I love the toughness, the effort wasn’t great tonight but they withstood the adversity they gave themselves by shooting poorly from everywhere. Gotta be better though. On to Cleveland! Go Zips!

NWAkron Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Tribble after game said they didn't panic. Western panicked. And you could see panic on the face of Central players went it wet south really fast 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 I like that when JD asked Tribble what the team has to do better in Cleveland Tribble said "Need to start games better." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illini Zip Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 Tribble has improved a bunch this year. But I think his leadership at this point is outpacing his talent. So even though he might not be that go-to guy in the clutch at this point his voice, attitude and effort needs to be applauded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zipsrule Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 I like that he took the ball to the hoop when we needed a score. Play to your strengths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted March 5, 2022 Report Share Posted March 5, 2022 In the postgame interview Tribble said he was excited to meet Len Paul. He also said that the team was talking about how they are one day "gonna look like those guys." 🤣🤣 Father Time is undefeated, kids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last time they had the 71-72 group there they rushed it during a time out and you didn't even have a chance to match the name with the player.
