It's raining now in Seattle, 90% chance of rain in 5 pm hour, overcast tomorrow, 70% chance of rain on game day, Saturday, high 41, low 36. UW has a grass field. Forecast has definitely gotten worse in the last day, day and a half. Bummer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLUBALLS Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 2001 quarterfinals against Stanford. They hosted but the field was a mess given all the rain that had come through. Much was talked about how bad the field was going to be given the rain. We lost 1-0. Believe Politis was our goalie. He slipped when taking a goal kick with ball not making it much past 18 yd box to the top forward for Stanford. He buried the shot. This would have been Brad Davis’s group if I am not mistaken. Jewsbury too. Let’s hope we are on the winning end much like 97 against SMU when we made the final four after a game in horrible conditions.

Casey Klipfel (RIP) was 1997. SLU GK great Kevin Johnston 87-90, was among those at the recent Duke game. Speaking of the 1997 team, Jason Mims, who played on that team, coached the US League 1 Champion this year, Union Omaha. That team featured recent SLU alum Devin Boyce.

courtside Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 How many times are you going to troll the soccer threads in one week?

Welcome to Seattle in December, “Seattle mist.” Yeah, my tweet about having a dry field if the forecast holds did not age well. A couple nights ago, W-F were looking dry in the forecast, with a chance of rain late Saturday. I know from first hand experience not to take PNW weather in the fall for granted. So it goes.

cheeseman Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Why wouldn't they move the game to a playable field. If it was a mess before all this they had plenty of time to find another location. Not only does it make the game less competitive but you risk injuries. This on the NCAA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This on the NCAA Same conversation happened back in 2001. After the Duke game this past weekend, the common comment among many at the game was wishing Indiana had won against Washington. Most thought we would have seen 10K-15K potentially at the game if held at Hermann. How they would have fit, no idea. Instead, we go to the wet slop of Washington state. At the end of the day, both teams are playing on the same field so no one has an advantage in terms of the conditions. Just have to get the job done and be the one with less critical mistakes.

I disagree that both teams are equal on all fields. If you were in Washington then you would be more use to this type of muddy field. Just like with horse racing some are better mudders than others. slufanskip likes this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
