Thanks for the update. I see SLU signed DiMaria. What do you think the chances are of SLU eventually signing his sister? (Gatorade National POY as a freshman for those of you who don’t follow St. Louis HS soccer.)

Coach Putz? What did I miss here?

Yeah, three complete steps is a travel anywhere except the NBA….but you have to admit the big fellow does have a sweet inside game. Really soft touch.

Compadre is stone cold taking 3 point shots in the dying seconds to win or tie games. Stone cold.

Crowd roar when Avila scored the go ahead points was impressive. Did not appear there were enough SLU fans present to generate that level of noise. Very nice!!

I’m with you on McCottry. With the level at which he was playing, there is NO way Anya replaces him yesterday. Also surprised the Pikaar 3 point make is not being discussed a bit more on this thread. Was almost as smooth as a Jimerson shot. I’ve refrained from criticizing Coach for keeping Pikaar under the same “don’t shoot” restrictions as Anya when he is wide open/completely unguarded at the top of the key. Had always heard MP could shoot…but thought maybe Coach knew something I was not aware of. Going to be a bit more vocal now…

We lose this game by double digits without Simon. She has quietly evolved into this team’s MVP.

I arrived late last night. Parked in Weber so had to access the stands at court level. Entered just as Kobe scored the 3. The resultant wave of sound at court level was unbelievable. I’m a relatively large guy (6’2” 210) but my date is only 5’2” 110. The blast almost knocked her down. The decibel level was even higher as Gibson lead the comeback late in the second half. I can easily see why a packed Chaifetz is considered the toughest place to play in the A10.

Well, unless you’re Jon Jones, you don’t want tickets in 116….

What were the students actually yelling at Shulga? He was the VCU Alpha for the last couple of minutes. The chant in his direction was constant. None of my group could understand it.

I never understood Tillet’s issue with Connor last year. In the few scant minutes of playing time she received, it was easy to tell Connor had skills. Probably LaSalle’s best player this season. Scored 18 at Dayton this week. Could easily be starting for SLU this season. Just bizarre….

Bargain basement Doncic was absolutely cooking us (Kobe, GJ, etc.) until Coach put Anya on him. Completely shut him down. Reminded of a few years back against St. Joseph. Ryan Daly was turning Goodwin and everyone else inside out…killing us…and then Ford put French on him. That move won us the game.

This is the essence. 4-24 and 6-30 in our last two losses. We are not going to beat any decent opponents with this level of 3 point ineffectiveness. Brutal.

. Put Becher on this team and we are seeded. Put Becher and Parker on this team and we go deep into the Dance. Simple as that…..

The only USA kid who saw the pitch for Missouri State was their keeper. I’m guessing the same holds true for Kansas City…. I cannot fault them for the massive amount of skilled foreign players. It is the only way schools like MSU and KC can compete with the SLU and IU soccer elites.
