UAA Soccer

[deiscanton]

Final in Rochester, NY--

Brandeis 2, Rochester 1.

Brandeis men's soccer first victory at Fauver Stadium since 2015.

Rochester's 11 game unbeaten streak comes to an end.

The win gets Brandeis to 10.5 adjusted wins, meaning that Brandeis will now be able to drop 1/2 of their win vs #290 in NPI Regis (MA) to further boost the NPI score for the Judges.   The win value game score for beating Regis (MA) was less than Brandeis's current NPI value, so Brandeis will be able to drop 1/2 of that win over Regis (MA) right now.

Next UAA men's game is this evening at 5:30 PM Central/6:30 PM Eastern, when U.Chicago hosts CWRU.

[WUPHF]

Brandeis and Emory move to 1-1-1 and 1-0-2 with four games left and remain in contention for the championship.

They would have been crazy longshots if the early scores had held.

The league looks very interesting if 0-1-1 Case Western Reserve and 0-0-2 Carnegie Mellon earn road wins over 1-0-1 Chicago and 2-0-0 Washington University.

Brandeis will jump Emory in this week's NPI. With Wesleyan losing, they will fall below both of them. Brandeis moves to #4, Emory #5. Top 4 seeds in NPI are protected against being in a region with any other top 4 seed, same for 5-8.

If Wash U beats CMU though...Wash U jumps both Brandeis and Emory and moves to 4.

CWRU at #19 UChicago right now.

Jonah White on the play by play.

I could barely hear him speak on the stream early on in this match, but perhaps the audio problems are clearing up.

Not yet, I can't hear him either.

They seem to have fixed the audio...but are now in lightning delay.

[deiscanton]

We have a weather delay at Chicago due to a thunderstorm passing through the U.Chicago campus.

Due to the lightning delay, play has now been suspended for at least 30 minutes.

At the start of the delay, the score is CWRU 0, U.Chicago 0 in the 29th minute.

The clock has been stopped at the 28:25 mark, and will resume from there when play resumes, either later this evening, or possibly tomorrow if play cannot resume this evening.
