My father in law ran into the women’s team tonight at a Noodles here in St Louis metroeast, grabbing dinner before the two hour drive back to Evansville.
Said the players were great, and when he mentioned that his granddaughter would be attending usi next fall, they told him how much they love going to school there. Love that the players are friendly, down to earth, and have a good head on their shoulders.

USI hangs on for a 1-0 win. They let down the last 12 minutes but still held on. Record now at 4-5-3

We are capable of winning some OVC games, but we can’t have lapses. During the last part of the game last night, they looked tired and they stoped being the aggressor and Chicago State nearly tied it up on some great chances. Luckily for USI we got the saves and held on. I still think we need to recruit a really good scorer before next season. We just don’t have that one person that can finish in the box. But, I am happy at least they are competitive in every game they have played this year - even the TTU loss wasn’t as bad as the score as we were pretty close for a good portion of the game.

USI gets another tie. I was disappointed because we had a lead for most of the match but gave up a late goal. Still a decent season for the ladies.

Hugely disappointing loss today as this UTM team was not good at all. This was a really bad loss today.

Hugely disappointing loss today as this UTM team was not good at all. This was a really bad loss today. I was at the game and the first goal - 4 min in - was a killer for us. I thought we played pretty evenly for the most part. They had a few girls that were bigger and faster, but mostly it was even. I thought we had 2-3 legit scoring chances but as usual, can’t convert. The one near the end that hit the crossbar was a crushing blow for us. USI needs a few dominate scorers that can FINISH. I am disappointed but I keep reminding myself we are playing D1 teams with our last years D2 players. I just hope we can recruit up a notch and that will be enough to push us over the hump in these close games. IF after 4 years we are still doing this same close-but-not enough, then I will be concerned. I can’t fault our women who were recruited as D2 players, and now are playing against D1 players. They are doing a pretty decent job when you look at it from that perspective.

Good to see the women get out to a lead for once. 1-0 over Eastern at half.

Dominant win to close out the year….well done! The good news is we are NOT done yet. With todays win, the USI women get to play in the OVC conference championship. I think its a neutral site and I heard against Lindenwood which we can beat if we play well. Glad to see the final regular season end with a win.

They get Lindenwood at SEMO, a game they can win. Then a rematch with SEMO who is also very beatable.
