Lord Elrond Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 Lipscomb was the defending ASUN conf champions, they were picked to win it in preseason polls again, and their goalkeeper and 5 other players were on the preseason honors list for their conf, so they are a good team. I think soccer demands players know how each other plays more than most sports, and the transfer heavy Billikens have a lot of players who are just getting to know how to play together. Right now they are just not meshing. We’ll see how the year unfolds, but I’m betting they will look a lot better as time goes by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without looking I think the ASUN is the refuge for SEC mens soccer programs. I think you’re spot on with the meshing comment. A lot of really talented players just not coming together yet.

Boo on you for responding. Never posts on soccer until something bad happens. If no one ever responded or quoted him he'd just be talking to himself. Probably spends a lot of time doing that anyway though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that’s why they weren’t dumped out of the rankings (2 losses and they only dropped to 17th). The experts think there is a lot of talent there too. They need to pull it together.

The only real negative with losing the first two games is our chance of finishing in the Top 4 is pretty much wiped out. We play UW at home last year and we’re in the Cup…with even odds to win the whole thing… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is what it is, we’ll just have to play the games we are assigned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

courtside Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Alberto Suarez made the Best 11 National Team of the week for Top Drawer Soccer. He’s unsurprisingly fit in very well at center back this season. 90 minute player. He can also get forward, and, he had a big goal in the Creighton game.
