2019 Women's D1 Soccer Talk!!!!

I am amazed by our out of conference schedule. Georgetown, Seattle, Washington State, Penn State, Duke, and LSU out of conference. Only one out of conference game against a team with a losing record. I like how our coach is challenging our team.

That is one helluva out of conference schedule!! Josh knows how to schedule!!
 
Needless to say this is going to be an exciting year in the WCC. Also, my other DD just started training today on her collegiate journey! Its going to be a wild schedule this fall!

You guys are going to be spread a little thin. My friend that is a great problem to have!!
 
Pardon the math lesson, but a team gets no RPI benefit "due to their conference" unless all members of the conference do well against non-conference opponents.

No math lesson needed gramps. The ACC always has a great out of conference record and if you bothered to look before you said anything you would have seen that.

Always the contrarian. You really need to get a hobby or get laid.
 
Congrats to your player, that is a really quick recovery!!

I would not declare that she is recovered yet. She is running and jumping but it not cleared to scrimmage. Camp starts at 5-1/2 months and while I suspect she will be cleared to train, I would be very surprised if she is cleared to scrimmage/contact at that point. More likely she is slowly introduced as the season progresses or she redshirts.

"Always has"? Why is that?

I "looked" to see if the RPI formula has changed. It hasn't.
 
The Pacific Tigers are ready for the season to begin after going 4 and 0 in spring for the first time ever. 4th year into the rebuild, with only two original recruits left, We hope we can make some of the top teams in the WCC sweat a little more then they are accustomed to when they play us.

The good news is, everyone sweats like a motherfucker when in Stockton... so at the very least, home games should favor you.

MAP is MCR injured? I see a brace on her leg in photos

Unfortunately she hurt herself in Italy a couple of weeks after being cleared. It is a big setback for us. Luckily the deepest line on the team is the midfield. I am not sure how serious it is. It definitely isn't as bad as before (she had the same injury that my player had surgery for at the end of her sophomore year). She is a great kid, with a bright future. She will be with the full Mexican WNT by her senior year.
 
Great post from a Pepperdine player regarding D1 and how it might not go as planned: https://speakco.us/blogs/testimonials/setbacks


So great and so true. That is why you pick the school not the soccer. Anything can happen with the soccer. It is only a small part of the journey. Honestly, the thing that I am most proud of with my player is the fact that she graduated Magna Cum Laude in 3 years and was on the honor roll every single quarter.

Thank you for sharing.

I remember that knee injury and surgery that is why I was concerned for her when I saw the large brace. She has a lot of supporters here in her home town. Thanks for the update.
