It felt so odd to be at a game at Shaw where it was cold, but the grass was green...
Entertaining contest. Included a Maryland player eating a straight red, but because this is spring soccer (even spring soccer with a fake 'Cup' competition), Maryland did not go down a man.
Hoyas has the wind in the second half and really dominated the run of play.

What is the reason that Big East women, with 11 schools in the conference, play 10 conference games, while the men, with 12 teams, play only 8?

What is the reason that Big East women, with 11 schools in the conference, play 10 conference games, while the men, with 12 teams, play only 8? Yeah, instinctively I don't like the new setup because I don't like not playing each conference opponent every year. There's just an overwhelming and understandable desire to avoid having an imbalanced number of home and away games, so your options with 12 teams are basically: 1. Have everyone play each other once (11 games) and then the 6 teams with 6 home games have to travel to one of the teams with 5 for a 12th game - determined to be not viable because too imbalanced 2. Two divisions of six teams each, play home-and-away within your divisions (10 games total) - don't want to do this because you lose rivalries and marquee games, like Georgetown vs. Creighton 3. A blended approach, where you play each team in your vision once (5 games, with either 3/2 or 2/3 home/road) and then you add either 3 (8 total conference matches) or 5 (12 total) matches with teams from the other division. Playing 3 of the six from the other division in any given year and then just rotating each year creates a more regular and balanced multi-year scheduling cycle than the alternatives. 4. Home-and-away within your division, one game against each team in the other division (16 total) - too many games, Georgetown only has 17 games on the regular season schedule. The soccer purist in me says: screw it, go with #4 and just do away with the conference tournament. But Americans love tournaments, and I have to admit I love having it always be in nearby Boyds now. So 3 seems like the least bad option.

An ironic tweet, given that historically the SID has provided zero information on exhibitions beyond acknowledging their existence.
