So stats show emil out last 16 minutes, ashton out since 56’, victor out last 20 minutes, are these guys resting or out?

Akron has been horribly thin all year at outside back.....ever since the Temple game  (when James Buebendorf stopped getting playing time).

 

Daragh held his own in the last 35 minutes after Ashton got hurt.

 

When Josh came out of the game in OT, it appeared that midfielder/Forward Stefan Dobrijevic had to come in and play right back.......

 

I hope that all of the injured players....Emil, Ashton and Josh......are healthy for the NCAA tournament.

Georgetown is #5 in RPI....and Akron battled them on even terms for 98 minutes

 

this team deserves a spot in the NCAA.

very nice quotes by Georgetown head coach Brian Wiese (FYI....Georgetown first 3 non-league games were against current RPI #3 Pitt, #24 Maryland and #35 UNC-Greensboro).  They also played another top 20 RPI team - Cornell

 

Head Coach Brian Wiese

"With a few injuries coming in that we needed to manage, we used a ton of our roster today. We saw guys step up. Miles Avery came in for Tate (Lampman) when he couldn't go and played fantastic. Aidan Godinho with the goal which was so deserved with the way he has been playing. The list goes on and on seeing guys come in and do the job, especially against a team like Akron. We have the hardest strength of schedule in the country and Akron is far and away the best team we've seen. To find a way to persevere through that was good to see. We're back in the final, and we'll see if we can finish the job."

Congratulations to our Zips on a good season. Hopefully, we will get an at large bid to the NCAA Tournament.
 

Looking at the box score, it seems the team with the deeper bench and fresher legs prevailed. Lots of talent sitting on our bench who could have possibly helped but not to be (throughout this season). 
 

I still find what I see as an over tendency to go backward frustrating. I understand the need to send the ball back to reset and try to open up the defense, but it seems in some games that is done more often than putting the ball in the box. A shot not taken is guaranteed not to score. We’ve seen a number of goals scored this season on some unexpected rebounds yet at times our guys seem to be looking for the perfect shot rather than taking a not so perfect opportunity.

Was Caleb Borneo injured in the second half of the season? He started the first few games of the season and I haven't seen him out there in weeks.

You could really tell the subs in the last 10 minutes of regulation weren't on the same level as our starting XI. Didn't love the somewhat acceptance of overtime
