Im not sure exactly, but I think it has to do with the number of games she missed in the season, so if the Waves get to the round of 16, that must be the magic number.

Apparently the threshold is 30% of the season. When she got injured 8 games in, she was past that threshold and therefore ineligible to RS. She was told that if they get to the 3rd round of the tournament, the 3 additional games pulls her back under 30%.

Their creativity on the ball and the freedom to play beautiful soccer is a pleasure to watch. Tim Ward one of the best

Pepperdine is one of the programs I can count on 1 hand where their attacking players are given the green light to play with creativity.

Little KidGretsky’s style of play will mesh well in the Pepperdine system as a #10 player pulling the strings!

I saw the ball that hit the crossbar. I didn’t realize your DD took that shot. I was at the game watching with a buddy who’s DD plays on the team.

Not that shot.
It was another shot that was one she would make 99 out of 100 times.
The freshman Reyes crossed the ball right onto the six after beating a defender in an incredible display of tenacity and skill.
Happens to all of em once in awhile.
The win makes it go away.

Absolutely, I saw CR who played with my DD at Eagles. She is excelling in the Tim Ward system!

BTW, your DD had a good game for returning from a head injury. Your right wingback is a stud also!

Right back is conference defensive player of the year.
Missed last season with an ACL injury. She's an athletic phenom.
If it was up to me, Id give the entire back line the season MVP.
Her sister plays defensive mid, and is as good as it gets there.

SDSU sucked. 9 behind the ball kickball is not soccer. If you were impressed by that performance you clearly have skin in the game. It was tough to watch their crappy soccer. Frieszen is a better coach than that. To throw your philosophy out the window to try and get a result is illuminating.

So if SDSU Sucked then how do you explain them absolutely roasting the best center back in the world multiple times? Fair question. Did she have an off day? Too much pressure from her narcissistic helicopter dad?

I remember that one as well. I told my buddy, I love how Pepperdine’s attackers are allowed to go at fullbacks and that was a perfect example of why beating a fullback 1v1 creates defensive chaos for the other team. The ctr backs now have to step leaving their marked players. Yup, I’m sure your DD would have put that goal away, if she had that opportunity again.

I have seen so many college teams in which it’s so obvious they have been program NOT to take players on and just cross it in the box and hope for the best. IMO, such an archiac way to play soccer
