Next Up For Wildcats -Delaware Wins

Playing their first two games at home (must be nice) UD beat Lafayette 19 - 9. Kept Lafayette out of the end zone. Only allowed Lafayette three FGs. I don't think VU has three FGs in two seasons. ATTENTION ATTENTION Worried about Nova field goal kicking? Try this - Delaware got a big lift on special teams as redshirt freshman kicker Frank Raggo connected on a school record - tying four FGs, including a 45 yarder just before half to give Hens a 13 - 3 lead, and a 22 yarder with 28 seconds left in the game that sealed the UD victory. My guess he was under pressure on these two.
Some fun next Saturday.
BTW W&M went up to Lafayette last week and put a hurting on them 34 - 7.
CAA is beating up PAT Conference teams (JMU 55 Lehigh 17) Nova 14 - Fordham 7 UNH 26 Colgate - 8 UD 19 Lafayette 9 .Lafayette is 0-2 vs CAA.

Defense leads Cats to 14-7 win over Rams in rain

Cats defense led by Cherry, Paris et al. does the dirty work in the rain stifles Rams offense. Cats offense still work in progress but RB White (153 yds gained) WR Wells , Frosh McClintock show progress. JR has second un Peyton like game but does enough. Throws for one (12-18), scores one on ground gains 102 yds. Doesn't look like a #2 team at this point.

August MLS talk

pirlo to NYCFC?

Women's World Cup and the gold cup occupied my summer, but now it is mls time. Catching up on some games. Watched the Orlando v NYCFC replay. Fantastic action. I have really enjoyed watching Kaka, but that was my first good glimpse of David Villa. Guy is great. Pirlo really looked smooth out there.

Sabastian Giovinco is the highest paid Italian soccer player in the world? That's shocking. First I had no clue Series A paid their stars less than MLS soccer. but even if that is the case I figured some of their stars would end up cashing in playing in Spain or England. Giovinco isn't even the top paid MLS player this season.

Really looking forward to the fall push towards the playoffs.
