Boys handled their business today.
Workmanlike effort with total control established early and maintained.
Well done.

Marquette came out feisty and frenetic early, gambling that maybe if they could punch the Hoyas in the mouth off the bat and get a goal early, they could then turtle and steal points. As good of a strategy as any, I suppose. I was impressed by our side's ability to absorb that early surge and, I would say, even match it in terms of intensity and physicality. I think it was clear to both sides that Marquette couldn't sustain that pace and style of play for long, and sure enough, the own goal (spurred by some great footwork by Montes) deflated the Eagles for good before long.
For anyone who was watching the broadcast, did they say anything about Rio's status?

Wow. Very well deserved. Keep it up Hoyas. This team is well oiled and has great depth for a long run.

My fault for today's result, I caught most of the first half and had to stop watching the stream at halftime.

Hoyas face the winner of Butler v. Creighton in the semis, facing the prospect of another tilt against a team that just tied them on their home field. Meanwhile, St. John's gets the winner of Providence v. Marquette, with the Friars having just taken down SJU 2-0 to close out the regular season. As always: nothing is guaranteed.

Butler wins at Creighton on a PK with under 10 left after getting a free kick inside the half-circle and blasting it into a Creighton wall-piece who for some stupid reason threw his arm up and away from his body.
