Wake women lost 1-0 last night. I went to the game and we dominated the game but couldn't finish. Shots were 20-3 with 7 on frame, corners were 10-0 and we had at least 70% possession but just couldn't finish. One shot hit the crossbar and we blew a couple of one on ones with the goalie. Their goal was scored on a slow roller across the face of the goal at about the 6 yard line. Our goalie probably should have gone after it but stayed back. Individually, Torres is a tall, strong freshman with decent foot skills but not the fastest or most creative I've seen. Ridgik the senior was very good but blew one point blank chance.
GK: Harris
DEF: Fink, Fagundo, Odenbeck (transfer), Reaves
MID: Hayes, Harkes, Greensfelder/Parker, Bandy
FWD: Gamble, Gent
I would think we'll see many lineups tonight, but I wouldn't be surprised if these were the starting XI barring injury.
Thanks. I'm hoping Gamble will take advantage of this opportunity and live up to his press clippings (not that he's played badly but he had some talented people in front of him and he wasn't able to beat them out). Harkes was impressive last year and with his bloodlines and connections, has a chance to be a player on the national scene.
We have a new addition with a ridiculous bloodline as well. Jon Baquero is a monster of a midfielder that joined the team late. His dad played for Barca, Spanish NT for 2 WCs, and won a Euro Cup.
1st Exhibition game tonight....late in 1st half.
