CUSA Soccer Final - Denton, TX - Sunday 12pm

[emmitt01]

My soccer obsessed daughter and I will be there tomorrow afternoon.

I was at the game last night and was shocked to hear the roar of the crowd at the goals. I was only expecting brief polite clapping.

It was a lot more fun than I thought it would be, and the new soccer stadium facility is really nice.

Have to think the crowd will be even better and louder tomorrow. This is probably our only chance at a football championship this year. 😉

I’m going to make one final plea for attendance tomorrow. These are the times we need to step up as a fan base. This is one of OUR teams (one that has achieveed levels of success not seen by any other program of ours in the last few decades) playing for a championship on OUR field tomorrow. The weather is going to be perfect. If you are upset about our men’s football team (it was a long drive back from Ruston this evening), throw your full attention a support behind our ladies football (soccer) team for one afternoon tomorrow. Go Mean Green!

Just bring the whole team. 

[Mean Green Matt]

Decent crowd but should honestly be way better. 😕

[Big Z]

We just scored 1-0!

[greenminer]

Not sure if this has been mentioned but, even with all of this programs successes, this is the first opportunity we’ve ever had to win this title in front of a Denton crowd.

Score?

1-1

The game is on ESPN plus

2-1 FAU

[greenminer]

We look like we forgot to get out of bed. FAU looks more aggressive.

[Travis]

Sloppy soccer. All long ball. All low percentage chances save for about five minutes of actual decent play. 
this kind of play infuriates me as a soccer coach. 
anytime you touch the ball you have to do it with purpose. This kickball stuff ain’t pretty. 

[Big Z]

Tied 2-2

 

[Salsa_Verde]

Hedlund ball in full effect I see. FAU came to play. Elle is hurt and that could be bad going forward she’s solid at midfield 😢

[Big Z]

4-2 UNT

Well this wins conference but yields nothing come NCAAs. Great run of dominating conference, now it is time to finally win a tournament game.

5-2 NT. Maybe we can just try and enjoy today. 20 minutes of defense left for a conference title. Unfortunately this is the only one of our teams that does this with any regularity.

If this holds, what kind of seed are we looking at?

They only seed the top 16 I believe. After that it’s primaeily regional considerations. For instance last year with a 30 RPI we had to play top 10 TAMU. I’m sure TAMU wasn’t thrilled either as it took double OT to beat us.
