Zips can still make playoff without winning this game but man what a disappointment if they can't pick up three at home against Marquette. Creighton (3 points ahead of the Zips) plays Seton Hall (2 points ahead of the Zips). Rooting for the tie. 😊

I've been debating it and think a tie between Creighton and SHU is best also. However, if Akron wins, there's no harm in a Creighton win, as Akron would still win the division with a win in the final match. 

 

If I really went in-depth on the tiebreakers, maybe I would have a different opinion. 😆

Just Win Zips. Win. Take care of business.

Note from the game preview: this match will air on gozips.com not espn+ (I assume due to the volleyball match on espn+ right beforehand)

The good news is that Chad Welker will be the announcer.

 

Chad is very knowledgeable about the players and is very passionate about the Zips.   Chad always does a good job.

Ferguson and O'Rourke in starting lineup

 

O'Rourke has been playing some very good soccer

Farrell (not Remi) replaces Ferguson. Anyone know if Remi is injured? 

[MDZip]

With Creighton picking up a point tonight Zips must get at least a tie to stay in contention for the Midwest title. 

[MDZip]

Zips have only three shots and one shot on goal. If they can't beat this Marquette team they probably don't deserve to be in the tournament.

And just like that, a Stefan Dobrijevic PK puts the Zips on top.

Has Borneo been injured?

[Reslife4Life]

Zips win 2-0!

Can we get the trifecta with soccer, basketball, and football winning this week

🤞. W Soccer won Thursday and volleyball won 2x this weekend

Not the type of play that will advance us in the playoffs, but it was enough to beat Marquette. This is a curious team. They have the talent to play at the highest level, yet they have not put it all together. Where was Remi? Ferguson cannot play FWD at the level we need. He would be better converted to D so he could get playing time in the future. I also echo another poster: where is Borneo? Is he back in the doghouse? Regardless our MF doesn't have it. They were all world against St L. U. and then fell off the face of the earth. Stefan and Jack Roman are consistent and bring quality. The rest have to show up sometime. As we are playing now we cannot go deep in the tourney. We'll get in, but I'm not expecting a lot.

Attendance of 1,242

 

that is very disappointing 

 

last regular season home game

 

the zips are number 20 in the coaches rankings 

 

the zips are number 12 in RPI.

 

The Zips are competing for a Big East division title.

 

why is attendance so poor?

[Zip_ME87]

Nice win with what seemed to be several players unavailable. 

 

Great to see Mailk Henry in attendance tonight.

I missed Malik in attendance tonight, would've liked to have seen him! He's making great strides with Toronto.
