Figure we probably should have a thread for our fall sports going on.

Field Hockey is 3-1 - Their next match is 9/8 at home against Rider and then at UPenn on Sunday before starting their conference slate next week

Women's soccer is 4-2- Their home conference opener is today (Thursday) against W&M

Men's soccer is 1-1-1 (0-1-0)- they lost their conference opener to CofC. Their next match is Saturday for their conference home opener against new member Campbell

Tennis and Golf are nearing the beginning of their seasons.

Thank you for the update. My youngest will be a freshman. W/O football, what exactly do you do at parents weekend?

I cant speak to what they do any more as I am not local and havent been since graduating 11 years ago. They used to have flyers and such with information. Usually there is food like a small controlled tailgate and I am sure there is various information given out, probably small items like car stickers etc.

Field Hockey moved to 4-2 beating Rider and losing to Penn

Women's soccer is now 4-3-1 (0-1-1) after losing to W&M and tying NU

Men's soccer is 2-1-1 (1-1-0) after beating the Camels

This week:
MSOC- @UMass Lowell, @Monmouth
WSOC- @Hofstra, Delaware

Watched this on Flo and it was a heartbreaker! To be leading at the 80th minute in our first league road test, and see Drexel go on to score twice in a 4-minute span was rough!

Enjoyed your announcers and seeing Drexel’s facility for the first time.

It seems like Family Weekend this year is December 1-3, which seems rather conveniently centered around the Big 5 Classic. Granted, not sure how many parents they're actually going to get at Wells Fargo. But it seems too convenient to be a coincidence.

Yep, I'm sure that's on purpose. I'm sure Drexel would rather center it around a basketball game at the DAC, but I'm sure that Drexel will be required to sell thousands of tickets to this event. The problem is that they won't be able to put out a schedule of events until after the Temple game or later, as they won't know what time Drexel's game will be at.

That's wild. Good for them, I say.

Field Hockey fell Friday 2-0 to W&M ending their season in the semi.

Thanks for all your updates. Shame that a moderately successful fall couldn't result in a finals appearance.

Yup. Unfortunately another similar result for a season. Some decent success followed by failure in the CAAT where it matters.

i got a kick out of this line from the write up of the soccer game at delaware...

"Drexel ended its 2023 campaign with a 9-2-5 mark, the highest winning percentage since the Dragons went 13-4-2 in 1990."

1990! 33 years ago! and even that season it's not like we lit the world on fire. it's amazing how low the bar was set across our athletic department...for decades.

our soccer coach resigned and is going to villanova.

not exactly the warmest statement from the ad. usually there's a "thank you" in there somewhere.
