Women's Soccer is now 0-0-3

Pretty odd to start with three ties.

Women's Soccer is now 0-0-3

Pretty odd to start with three ties.

Two of the ties were against Gannon and Slippery Rock, the #2 and #3 teams in the preseason coaches poll.

Went 0-3-1 against them last year.

The big team on campus right now may be women's volleyball. Huge start and last night beat a then 8-0 Shepherd, 3-1, in WV.

That team is really loaded up and the new coach seemed to be the missing piece.

Gannon and Slippery Rock are solid programs as is Mercyhurst.

With all due respect. No one cares. The University is ran by the football and basketball program, that simple.

Obviously. But, neither is playing yet. If IUPNation is ever going to get his Dixon, the 'no one cares' sports have to do well.

With all due respect, the people playing the sports and the people that actually care about the whole University care! Plain and simple. The Neanderthal way a life is long gone! Go back to the 1950's.

Agreed. The athletic department is changing under Todd's leadership. There is MUCH more emphasis being placed on the 'non-revenue' sports inside Memorial Field House. Those sports were treated as 4th Class Citizens under the previous regimes.

Several of the women's sports are gaining steam -- quickly. And, he made a fantastic hire for the baseball program. Their turnaround in Year 1 last year was incredible.

Volleyball has a chance to win the PSAC this Fall. Men's Golf and Women's Tennis are winning PSAC titles. Times are changing over there. Men's basketball is is the top program and has won three straight PSAC titles -- and is probably the favorite to win a 4th this winter. Women's hoops, however, will be a disaster this year.

You should tell the marching band that.

I think they have two d1 transfers too. Looks like theyve already beat the preseason top two teams in the East and only two weeks into the season... which is impressive for any sport.

The Marching Band is not what is used to be… hopefully the new guy can fix it.

All 18 of them lol.

Well, the band hit rock bottom under that last regime.

Only one way to go now. Up.
