Women's Soccer wins!!!!!!

3-2 over Holy Cross.

 

Matching last seasons win total - Congrats on a good start.

Give credit to the coach Banda - freshman scores two goals including the game-winner. And the girl who made 12 saves is a defender according to the web roster, so either that's wrong or he turned her into a goalie ... not sure on that count, but another good move by the coach if true.

 

If he can get this team anywhere near .500 this season, he is going to make a LOT of people look very bad, including and especially the former coach.

If he gets this team to .500 he should be the coach of the year. I would be happy wiht 5-6 wins this year....expecting a big year next year.

 

The only sobering thought is that HC is the WORST team in the Patriot. Jeez, I sound like D2k!

[DaneFan2k3]

It's true, they are bad. But we'll encounter a few other bad teams this year. If the goals don't dry up, you never know what can happen. I'm too lazy to look through old boxscores to find the last player to score two goals, let alone the last freshman or newcomer.

A great way to start the season. A tougher test today against the Q who was picked 5th in the NEC and got one first place vote.

 

Given Banda's credentials it's really not a question of if this program will turn around it's only a question of when. This is a guy who was a two-time national coach of the year and got his UMass team to 5 consecutive national semi-final games.
