Good day for OVC womens soccer as all teams either win or tie today. Also a win over MVC team and a tie with an MVC team - UE.

You got to give the USI women's soccer team credit for promoting their team.

Watched first half of the soccer match. I am NOT an expert on soccer by any means but the one thing I noticed that stands out to me is foot speed. It seems like we are a half step slow to the ball on many occasions which keeps our drive from developing. I don’t know how many, if any of the players on this yeas womens soccer team were recruited as D1 soccer players, but IMO that should be a priority going forward is to get more speed on the team. Other than that, I say the 2 matches I have watched this year, we are pretty dead even with the low-to-mid-majors as far as talent. Just a few really fast women could make a HUGE difference for next year. But, considering USI is playing with probably 90% D2 recruits, we are holding our own most of the time.

NO contest is the ruling for Sundays womens soccer match. Was tied at half and neither team had many shots on goal. It was very evenly matched.
Weather forced the NO CONTEST decision. Lighting strikes near Evansville caused delay and it didn’t let up enough so they eventually called the NO CONTEST.

Massey ratings have USI women ranked 313 out of 348 teams. Hoping we can win a few more soon and maybe move into the upper 200 level. Looking at some of the regional D1 schools here is the ranking:
UE 226
Illinois State 311
USI. 313
Indiana State 314
SIU-Carbondale 326
Even though I would love to see USI higher, we are still ahead of 2 MVC schools in just our first D1 season and only 2 spots behind the other MVC school.

I think USI has a good chance to get their first win against a D1 school this weekend.
