billikenfan05 Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Is now 1-9 on the season. Worse hire Kent Miller or Jim Crews? Quote
TFord and TRavs Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Well our volleyball team has very little on our college exposure so Crews. Quote

MusicCityBilliken Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 I just was over at the SLU site and noticed other women sports are doing well. Soccer is undefeated and just recently tied a ranked KU. Field Hockey, which I advocated packing it in in the past, won more games in the last 2 weeks then they won in the last 2 decades (well close). Quote

Field Hockey, is getting a lot of help from international recruits and weak scheduling. I have been trying to get to a field hockey game for the last decade. Quote

Field Hockey hard to get at with games played out in Fenton. Any reason they can't move the games to that field where the track is behind the Med School? Quote

The field at the track is grass. Quote
FromDaEastSide Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 Field Hockey is now playing at Sportport in Maryland Heights - brand new turf and dedicated field for Field Hockey. Quote

Tonka Posted September 13, 2017 Posted September 13, 2017 The women's field hockey team has a nice setup at Sportport. They have banners out for the team as well. There is a midwest regional league that plays games there as well for club field hockey, so the SLU ladies get decent exposure there. Field hockey has never been big in this town in the past, but there an increasing number of clubs adding teams here. The only downside to Sportport is that the parking situation is terrible and when there are soccer games/practices (which is often) on any of the (12 - 16) soccer fields the parking is a nightmare.

Tough to have 3 setters on your roster and give them all adequate practice time. I heard that the starter was hurt right before the season started. The second in the first match. Quote
