April 27 will be a big day in Nac. Softball, baseball, football spring game, soccer, and a volleyball tournament with times TBD.

Rather than starting another thread.

September 6, at SFA!

Awesome.

TBH though, I thought UT Athletics was pretending not to know where our campus was located.

UT soccer has played at SFA before.

Solid home non conference schedule includes UT and UH.

This would be a very disappointing result.

Purple/White game tonight.

Ladyjacks start the season 0-1 after a 2-1 loss to College of Charleston. Ladyjacks were outshot 17-5, 9-2 on goal. Looking forward to the positive headline.

Let me guess. Something about Freshman Colleen Feagins scoring in her first collegiate game.

You're getting good at this.

I think this season will be better than last (6th place). Forget about the dominance from 2000 - 2016. Those days are long gone. When you've got a 13 team conference it's hard to be good across the board. With that many schools your going to have some schools work to be good in one or two sports.

A new facility would help.

Practice and reading a lot of that guy's (scoreless) headlines makes perfect.

Somewhat off topic, but would a soccer field fit inside a regulation track?

UNCW 3 SFA 0. Ladyjacks were outshot by 19-8 (12-2 in the second half) 8-3 on goal.

UNCW was 3-5-1 in CAA play in 2018.

Next up is a home match on Friday against Southern.

76. I'm starting to come around to your point of view. I don't understand the drop off in talent , other than the facilities angle. What do you think? Has Wally lost his touch ??

My opinion only, I am not sure Crittenden ever recruited well. He inherited an excellent program with a deep roster. To his credit, he won with those players. It appears that Crittenden can coach and game scheme with good talent. I don't think he can take middle of the pack players and develop them to high level players. Then, as you mentioned, other programs improved.

His comments from today:
On the quality of opponents at Charleston Under Armour Invitational:
"We came here expecting to play two teams that are NCAA caliber teams in a multi-bid league and we got just that. When playing in tournament finals and against these quality opponents, it is critical that we appreciate and convert the moments that can define games.

On the offensive opportunities created in the game:
On Friday, we had a handful of moments up until the last seconds of the game. Today, we had several high percentage chances in the first 45 minutes. The soccer we played in the 55-60 minute range was very good, and as we mature and begin to take advantage of these opportunities, that is when we will have the chance to go from a good team to a great team. I am confident it will happen as the competitive character and quality on this team is very high."

I am confident that there were almost identical comments about the 2018 team right up until they finished in seventh place. The CAA preseason poll had UNCW at eighth in a ten team league with Charleston in fourth. NCAA caliber ... not hardly.

We plan on attending the match with Southern. They are 0-1 after a 4-1 loss at McNeese on Friday.

76. You seem to have some real knowledge of the "beautiful game". I did learn a lot while living in Germany as a middle schooler. Admittedly I'm no expert but my sense is that he has developed some good attacking players. The transition in the midfield is lacking. In the two games I attended last year I noticed some real skill gaps at right back. And in the attack they seemed very right wing orientated. Could be just the two games I caught last year. In years past they seemed to use all angles to stretch the opponent.

Another "We Don't Want to Hurt Your Feelings By Actually Giving the Score" headline. Geezzz.

In the weekly coaches press conference, Crittenden said there is fencing going up at the soccer field, and they are looking at renting grandstands so they can ticket. I suppose this is a way to work around the floodplain issue. He does mention that SFA has a better field than most, and the players really appreciate it after being on the road.

Ladyjacks completely dominating the first half. Up 5-0 at halftime.

We chose to go to the Lufkin/Longview game.

Final 6-0. Dominated a bad team, which is what they should do. Next up in one week at home is UT.

Let's at least hang with UT. Please.

Hopeful we will. UT is 1-1 after beating Gonzaga 4-3 at home losing 3-0 at Denver. They play Colorado tomorrow.

From the opponent. "the Nac"
