A/AA State Final Preview?

[DonCChatt]

On 8/26 at 3:00 at Notre Dame, they will be playing against FRA in the GPS Tournament. Do you think this might be a preview of the A/AA Final? Any predictions?

No disrespect intended, but if you believe that this will predict anything, go talk to CCS about games played earlier in the seasons of the last few years. I am not only referring to FRA, but to any team and their potential basted on their early season performance. Most teams have "issues" to work out early on. Again, no disrespect to CCS. Just using that as an example.

Point taken. There is a lot of soccer between now and the end of the season, but the point remains that this should be a very good game. Notre Dame has a very strong schedule, playing teams like Centennial, ECS, Father Ryan, Ravenwood, CCS, Baylor, GPS, and Ooltewah.

 

FRA's schedule includes some of the same -- GPS, Baylor, BA, BGA, Centennial, JPII.

 

I expect both teams will be a lot better some November.

I agree, regardless of the outcome of this game, it will be a great game for both teams. I suspect as you do that these teams will get stronger as the season progresses.

worst part about this game is the field.

True, ND's field isn't much as far as soccer fields go-- too narrow, no shoulders to speak of. The grass itself is in great shape, though that might change tonight with a football (ND vs. Hixson) being played on it.

Notre Dame 2- FRA 0

 

Notre Dame controlled the tempo of the game, leading in shots on goal as well as time of possession.
