We do our usual, beat a really good team one day and lose to a really bad team the next. Lost to ULM 1-0.

Just one match left, a game at Georgia State.

Coastal Carolina takes down #2 Maryland tonight, 1-0, scoring in the 38th minute and making it hold up.

Finally rounding into form, this follows a 5-2 win over Top 20 Old Dominion last week.

TXST beats Troy 4-2 to go to 10-4-1 (8-1)

That's Men's soccer, right? Just to clarify.

AState shuts out Georgia State 2-0 in Atlanta to finish the season 9-6-1 (5-4-1 SBC) First time in a long time that our Women's soccer program has finished over .500 both overall and in conference.

Red Wolves remain in 3rd place with 16 points. Will be the 3rd seed in the tournament in 2 weeks if Troy fails to beat either Georgia Southern or ULL to close the season.

Nice to see some of the results. Most of us don't have men's soccer so there hasn't been any posting of results. Keep it up. Appreciate it.

USA leads TxSt 2-0 at the 74’ mark.

Jags hold on to win at least a share of the regular season title. Can win it outright with a win over LR Friday.

Scenarios headed into next week on the Women's side. I think all the games scheduled for next week are makeups for rainouts early in the year:

First the Standings

1. USA 24 points (1 match left)
2. Texas State 24 points (Finished)
3. Arkansas State 16 points (Finished)
4. Troy 15 points (1 match left)
5. Little Rock 14 points (1 match left)
6. Georgia Southern 13 points (1 match left)
7. Coastal Carolina 13 points (Finished)
8. Appalachian State 11 points (Finished

---------------------(Eliminated from league Tourney)

9. ULM 10 points (Finished)
10. ULL 8 points (Finished)
11. Georgia State 5 points (Finished)

Friday's matches:

Little Rock at South Alabama
Georgia Southern at Troy

Seeding Scenarios: The Following seeds are locked

1. South Alabama (Jags can clinch outright league title with win/draw Friday, but are top seed regardless)
2. Texas State
7. Coastal Carolina (Chants are tied with Southern right now, but the Eagles own head to head tiebreak)
8. Appalachian State

Now it gets complicated:

3-6 seeds can go one of 4 ways:

3 seed (Order of probability)
Troy: With win over Georgia Southern on Friday
Georgia Southern: With a win over Troy on Friday and a Little Rock Loss
Little Rock: With a Win over South Alabama and a Troy Loss
Arkansas State: With a Little Rock Loss/Draw to USA and Georgia Southern/Troy finishing in a Draw (AState owns tiebreak with Troy)

4 seed: (Order of probability)

Arkansas State: With a Little Rock Loss/Draw against South Alabama (Georgia Southern/Troy result irrelevant)
Little Rock: With a Win over South Alabama
Troy: With a Draw vs Georgia Southern and a Little Rock Loss/Draw vs USA
Georgia Southern: With a Win vs Troy and a Little Rock win vs South Alabama

5 seed:

Little Rock: With a Loss/Draw to South Alabama
Arkansas State: With a Little Rock win vs South Alabama
Troy: With a Draw vs Georgia Southern and a Little Rock Win vs South Alabama
Georgia Southern: Cannot Finish with the 5 seed Thanks to tiebreaks.

6 seed:

Georgia Southern: With a Loss or Draw vs Troy
Troy: With a Loss to Georgia Southern and a Little Rock win.
Little Rock: With a Loss to South Alabama and a Georgia Southern win vs Troy
Arkansas State: Cannot Finish 6th because one of GS/Troy must drop points this week

So In simple terms:

1. USA
2. TXST
3. Troy/GS/AState/LR
4. Troy/GS/AState/LR
5. Troy/AState/LR
6. Troy/GS/LR
7. CCU
8. App State

First Round Games known

App State vs South Alabama
Coastal Carolina vs Texas State

Our gals had a good season. They didn't even make the tournament last year. Would have been awesome to win the regular season but I'm proud of them.

Jags defeat LR 1-0 to claim sole possession of the regular season conference championship for the 4th year in a row!

For some reason, Georgia Southern at Troy is on Sunday, and both teams will have to turn around and play Wednesday in the tournament against different opponents. No idea why.

Seeding Updates:

1 South Alabama (Will play 8th seeded App State on Wednesday)
2. Texas State (Will play 7th seeded Coastal Carolina on Wednesday)
3. Troy/GS/AState
4. Troy/AState
5. Troy/LR
6. GS/LR
7. Coastal Carolina
8. Appalachian State

Scenario 1: Troy beats Georgia Southern on Sunday

Resulting seeds:

3. Troy
4. AState
5. Little Rock
6. Georgia Southern

Troy would then turn around and play Georgia Southern again on Wednesday and AState would play Little Rock

Scenario 2: Georgia Southern wins at Troy

3. Georgia Southern (Head to head over AState)
4. AState
5. Troy
6. Little Rock

Georgia Southern would play Little Rock on Wednesday and AState would play Troy

Scenario 3: Georgia Southern and Troy play to a draw

3. AState (Head to head over Troy)
4. Troy
5. Little Rock (Head to head over GS)
6. GS

AState would play Georgia Southern on Wednesday and Troy would play Little Rock.

Troy had Fried Eagle for dinner 5-0 over Georgia Southern.

Final Standings

USA 27
TXST 24
Troy 18
AState 16
LR 14
GS 13 (Head to head over Coastal)
Coastal 13
App 11 (Head to head over ULM)

ULM 11
ULL 8

Sunday Nov 5th

Championship Match 1:00pm

AState and Little Rock are 1-1 headed to 2 OT. Like most AState games, the Trojans have dominated play, but been unable to get past our defense. If they don't score in 2Ot, the match will head to PK's

Trojans hit the cross bar with the last kick of the game. Headed to PK's to decide who moves on to the semifinals.

Each team gets 5 kicks from the spot. At the end of 5 rounds, whoever has more goals wins. If tied, each team takes turns shooting until someone finishes a round with a lead

Round 1:

AState: Miss
LR: Goal 1-0 Trojans

Round 2:

AState: Goal 1-1
LR: Goal 2-1 Trojans

Round 3:

AState: Ugly Miss
LR: Ugly Miss Still 2-1 Trojans

Round 4:

AState: Ugly Miss Little Rock wins with a goal
LR: Goal

Trojans win 3-1 and Advance to the semifinals.

AState gets to spend the next year practicing penalties, because that was ugly. .

AState soccer continues an amazing streak in which they have never won a match that I have watched either in person or online. 0-8 now.

Bobcats fall 2-1 in Double OT. . . Damn it . .

Jags easily take care of App, which I believe is a first. We normally struggle against them for some reason.
