DA Showcase Day One-

Josep

GOLD
Looks like Socal teams dominated day 1 - looks like only u15s played.

I counted 8-3-1.

That’s pretty impressive against the rest of the country.
 
You have to search by date. It isn’t a user friendly site. I couldn’t see any other games besides u15 but Socal, and NorCal represented well by the looks of it.

I could be using it wrong.
 
Ok. I was a bit bored at work and had some down time. Here's what I came up with for Day 1
Our local club/their current rank in the West Conference/Southwest Division vs their opponent and their current rank and their conference/division. U-15 Girls
In no particular order:
Beach (3rd) 4-1 vs Cincinnati DA (3rd Central/Mid-America Central Div)
LAPFC (12th) 5-4 vs Solar SC (2nd Central/Frontier Central Div)
Albion (9th) 1-2 vs PSV Union FC (8th West/Northwest Div)
Pats (11th) 1-1 vs CA Thorns FC (5th West/Northwest Div)
Surf (5th) 3-1 vs Sockers FC (5th Central/Mid-America Div)
Blues (1st) 3-0 vs Penn Fusion Soccer Academy (2nd East/Atlantic Div)
WCFC (7th) 1-2 vs Dallas Texans (3rd Central/Frontier Central Div)
Eagles (14th) 4-1 vs IMG Academy (11th East/Southeast Div)
LAGSD (4th) 1-0 vs Charlotte Soccer Academy (3rd East/Southeast Div)
LAFC Slammers (6th) 3-2 vs FC Stars (4th East/Northeast Div)
RSC (10th) 2-0 vs Indiana Fire Academy (4th Central/Mid-America Central Div)
Legends (2nd) 0-1 vs NTH Tophat (1st East/Southeast Div)
LAG (13th) 1-3 vs Weston FC (4th East/Southeast Div)

And only because this score caught my eye.....
Eclipse Select Soccer Club (2nd Central/Mid-America Central Div) 14
vs
Cedar Stars Academy (6th East/Atlantic Div) 1
OUCH!!!!!!!


And to give you an idea how some of these teams rank you have to look at the size of the conference/division.

Central Conference/Mid-America Division: 9 teams
Central Conference/Frontier Division: 9 teams

East Conference/Northeast Division: 8 teams
East Conference/Atlantic Division: 8 teams
East Conference/Southeast Division: 11 teams

West Conference/Northwest Division: 10 teams
West Conference/Southeast Division: 14 teams (our division is the largest division)

And to really look into things you'd have to look at the individual records of some of these teams. Not going that deep. Sorry.
But one example is the Legends (2nd) 0-1 vs NTH Tophat (1st) game. That team is 9-0-1. 57gf/5ga
That must've been a good game to watch!!

I'll try and keep up with tomorrow's games and post info tomorrow night.
 
THAT DAMN SCHEDULE AND ALL THOSE LITTLE LINES DIVIDING THE GAME SCHEDULE!!!!:eek:
I made a mistake on 3 games and here are the corrections.

LAPFC (12th) 5-1 vs PA Classics (5th East/Atlantic Division)
Albion (9th) 1-1 vs Real Colorado (4th Central/Frontier Division)
Pats (11th) 1-1 vs Midwest United FC (8th Central/Mid-America Division)

Totally different teams.

Sorry for the confusion!!
 
I heard about that Eclipse club. A buddy says they had olders there singing and chanting after every goal, and running up and down the sidelines. They Would even chant and cheer during corner kicks. Apparently very obnoxious.

At this age and level, you gotta be kidding me.
 
Thanks, after some digging I found it. USYS website is very clunky. Kind of odd that they are only livestreaming six games. They do more than that for the National Championships.
 
The Legends vs Tophat was a great game although our girls lost 0-1. We had over 80 colleges watch the entire game.

Day 2 was also a lot of fun too. Legends 03 defeated Fury 3-1. We had another 60 or so scouts.

Hard to retrieve soccer balls that went into the fenced in areas next to/between the fields...gators!!
 
This event is crazy. Over 60 scouts at our game. Who’s who of D1 schools. We are new to this and have never seen the like of this before. Poor moms were working up a sweat passing at team brochures.

Simi- it's Not crazy, it's reality. Each and every drop of sweat from those poor moms is well worth it when those school scouts (coaches) tell your girls/DD....."Susie....we would like you to be part of our program".

Best of luck to you/your DD, it is a tremendous opportunity and if she/you navigate it effectively, it can change the tragectory of her future.

Truth.
 
Good first day for Beach...all three Divisions looked good. A little surprised that the U18/19's dismantled FC Stars 9-0...Ouch. Our Coaches count was 29 D1 Coaches, 3 D2 and 2 US Scouts...not too bad for a U18/19 age group. Still have a few girls looking to commit, so the more the better. I heard the younger age groups had double the amount of College Coaches and all DA games have US Scouts. I'm still getting over the sticker shock of DA ($$$) but at the end it's worth it...well that's what I keep telling myself every first of the month...lol.

Not just Moms. Us Dads beat the bushes pretty hard during the nightmare called viewing tournaments. Totally agree with you...it's well worth every bit of the time and money you invest when Coaches tell you and your DD they would like to offer them a scholarship. The only thing that equals that feeling of pre college accomplishment is getting the email from US Soccer inviting your DD to a camp...Priceless!
