72 Roo Posted February 10, 2023 Report Share Posted February 10, 2023 3 hours ago, Blue & Gold said: Any word on how Gyuwon Chong's rehab is going? I spoke with Jared recently. Chong is conditioning and rehabbing, but will see no playing time or practice this Spring. He will continue on his return program and will be ready for the Fall. He may not get much playing prep in the summer depending on his progress. He took one hell or a cheap shot and it will take time to recover. Wish him all the best. He can be a key part of the Zips return to the final four. We will see. 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TennZip Posted February 19, 2023 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2023 I know that some great zip soccer fans drove to the "Burgh" to support the zips. I know that these super fans will give us a report. last Saturday, the Riverhounds mauled Penn State 3-0. The Riverhounds were one of the 3-4 clubs in the USL last year. Holding them scoreless is very impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fknbuflobo Posted February 19, 2023 Report Share Posted February 19, 2023 Very competitive match. And Zips were missing some key players. It was cold. Standout for Zips was (no surprise) Joel Sangwa. Highmark is a beautiful venue. Shoutout to David Egbo for showing! (He will never read this.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newcomer Alejandro Varela (#8) (nickname Nano, I believe as Will Jackson introduced him to me) started and played well. Very happy to meet Nano and get a look at him in action. Great seeing David Egbo. Agreed that he likely won't read this, but it would be great to see him again next Sunday at Robert Morris.

Zip_ME87 Posted February 27, 2023 Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 1-1 Final at RMU. Among the highlights...Great PK save by Mitch Budler and an outstanding golazo by Josef Paulus for the tying goal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fknbuflobo Posted February 27, 2023 Report Share Posted February 27, 2023 Joey Paulus’ lefty screamer from the D forced me to my feet! Wow! Joey should always have the green light to fire. Without a net around the goal, that ball just may have left campus. (Not really hyperbole considering the pitch is literally on a hilltop.)

fknbuflobo Posted April 2, 2023 Report Share Posted April 2, 2023 AKR 2-0 St. Bonaventure Very inhospitable weather! Strong winds gusted from the west throughout! Rain, sleet, and everything in between. Thankfully, the hail stopped before kickoff. 4-2-3-1 (ref Arsenal) Jason Shokalook was injured and did not take off his warmups, so Stefan Dobrijevic filled in nicely up top, playing the full 90. He stroked in a fantastic looping right-footed goal from the left corner of the box to the far top corner. Great. But Stefan also missed several other opportunities that, from the sideline, looked like pedestrian finishes. Dobrijevic arguably should have had a hat-trick. At least he got in threatening positions. Later in the first half, Josh Hallenberger scored a goal that (from my vantage point) looked like the exact same goal, from the identical spot, that Dobrijevic scored earlier. Halle put in a rock-solid shift, box to box. Though not the most talented on the squad, Joey Paulus is a joy to watch compete. He plays with a relentless and unquenchable fire. His linking play is greatly improved, and he is emerging as a team leader. Joey's left-footed shot is surprisingly powerful. He is obviously having fun out there. ZipsNation can hope for a strong Fall season from Paulus. For reasons undisclosed, Joel Sangwa did not take off his warmups. Mani Diop filled in and was the best revelation of the match. Impressive. Diop really plays a very similar style to Sangwe, calmly handling the ball, confidently tackling, and efficiently distributing. Diop will push for playing time soon, not to mention 2024. All in attendance, players, coaches, referees, fans, were bundled up for warmth. It was tough to identify, even at close range, those not playing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
