12 teams made it from the New England region and 2 are remaining playing in the Sweet 16 tomorrow. Williams (v. Stevens) and Brandeis (v. host William Smith). Good luck to both.

So much for the vaunted NESCAC....again. One team to the sweet 16? I thought it was the best conference in the country? Please.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Amherst should not have made the tournament. 2 nescac teams would have been fair but did not deserve 3Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

Well it appears only one other conference with MA teams sent one to sweet 16. And that was uaa which is also considered strong conference. Nescac is still a lot more competitive than most conferences in northeast.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

I wouldn't be so quick to criticize Amherst. They really outplayed us but in the craziness of soccer we took the game in pks. Happy my daughter is still playing! Go Brandeis!!Comment

Lesley from a really bad, bad conference got spanked 0-5 to Stevens. Roger Williams got spanked 1-5 to William Smith (shots were 4 to 17 in 1st half game over at the half). Welcome to big girl soccer. Thanks for coming.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

I watched a round-of-16 game yesterday. (I frequent this site because our kid was recruited by MIT; it is a guilty pleasure to return occasionally.) It was a hard-fought match, with plenty of drama. It came down to PKs. With our kid’s team facing elimination, the keeper made a fingertip save to keep the score at 3-3. Each keeper then saved the next shot she faced. Finally, on the seventh attempt, the shooter for our kid’s team scored, and her keeper again laid out and made a save. So, she saved three straight attempts and four overall. The other keeper save two out of seven, with another attempt hitting the post. We enjoyed watching immensely, even though our kid did not figure prominently in the game. None of the seniors will be playing organized soccer next year. (Given the next opponent, they are unlikely to be playing after today.) But they have enjoyed their experience. Not one member of the senior class left the team. Some of the seniors have great jobs lined up already, and three will be heading to graduate school, two for STEM PhDs and one for a DVM. All in all, it has been a really successful run. Was it worth it financially? It was for us.Comment

Could be any number of bitter coaches whose teams could not come up with enough quality wins to get invited to the dance.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

You didn't get a ticket to the dance, move on. Stop talking bad about every other coach and team behind their backs and in this forum.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment
