Fall sports under way

A 1-5-4 formation is backwards. It's actually written 4-5-1. 4 defenders, 5 midfielders and 1 strikers. You always start from the defense when determining the formation.

 

Good point! Basketball zones get me flipped around with soccer because we start with the foremost players (guards) in basketball zones (i.e., 2-3, 1-3-1, 3-2).

We earned a draw 0-0 this weekend against #8-ranked UMBC. Definitely a great showing. We out shot UMBC 6-2 in the first half. Awesome showing for men's soccer!

It's great that the America East has a ranked team in soccer. Maybe Albany will be there one day.
