Re: MSOC-Navy Draw

Very physical match judging from the boxscore. One of those red cards was on ASU senior forward/midfielder Harrison Delbridge. He's automatically suspended from the next match. That's a significant loss. Someone else will have to step up! Navy's red card was straight red for flagrant, dangerous fou...

Re: MSOC-Navy Draw

Good crowds, both Friday for Marshall and Sunday for Navy. The Navy game was physical, with a multitude of fouls, yellow cards and two red cards. We had a very close call in OT when Navy rocked the post. I'll have to say, it was impressive, and an honor, having the US Naval Academy in Boone. Now let...

Re: Coming back in from the ledge

Though the disappointment and frustration of last night still lingers, and most analyses and criticisms on the board are right on the mark, our team needs us to stay on board. Consider: * We could have played a very good game and still lost last night. * Last night didn't cost us a national champio...
