Anyone go to the match? I saw via three ZipsMSoc IG story that we were up 4-0 at one point. So it would seem the two conceded goals were late?

This was a thorough thrashing and mostly one-sided affair.

Ignacio Alem distinguished himself on the left wing.  He was consistently dangerous on the dribble.

 

Freshman Leo Morana also impressed with some incisive passing through the midfield.  I believe he had at least one assist, depending on how you score it.

 

But the frosh I really have my eye on is Londen Sears.  

Here is a mountain of raw talent!  

Fairly good with his right, superb with his left.

He played all four years of high school, the old-fashioned way.

 

"... a two-time All-America honoree, he was named as the Ohio Player of the Year in each of his final two campaigns...led his squad to a state title as a senior after advancing to the title game as a sophomore."  

 

If Sears plays all four years of eligibility, he will very likely have an MLS career.  I will lay that bet right now!  His size/speed ratio is fantastic.  

He is quite rough around the edges and really needs some intensive and focused development.  Akron is a great place to receive that sort of attention, the program that turns red chips into blues every damn year.   

But what is his position?  Not sure at this point.
