I know everyone in collegiate soccer is in the same boat but someone please tell me why a whole sport season needs to be cramped into 2 months & then a quick tournament followed by a national tournament. It’s madness! Players bodies are literally falling apart & I’m just one team

Michael Beale has no idea what he has done to his career with his decision to leave

after all he said last month about turning down Wolves. Every player who plays for him will always know what he did with this move. 4 months in & jumped ship at first ever opportunity

As a coach I don’t mind admitting I have favorites. I favor the student athletes who go to every class, don’t forget to do assignments, get a 4.0, come into the season fit, work hard in every session AND their own time, live right, do not waste their talent & are a GREAT teammate

should not be leaving QPR after 4 months. I don’t care what Prem club it is. You’re 4 months into your first ever head job. Have some loyalty the to the team that gave you a chance, it’s fanbase, players & back yourself to get a bigger job than Wolves in your future

Waking up this morning & it’s still such a weird feeling. For 9 years there’s always been a date that my time in America was up & I was wondering about the next option. Whether it was graduation or OPT/P1/H1B expiring, it has always been in the back of my mind. Not anymore! 🇺🇸🙏🏼

So I guess the current cool thing to do as a teenager is to write in all lower case letters. Even names 🤯 Probably best to not do that when contacting college coaches to tell them what a good soccer player & great student you are. Just saying. Doesn’t look smart. Or cool!

It’s not easy being a student athlete. It’s not easy being a player in a program that is fighting to get better everyday. It’s not easy being a player of mine with the standards that I demand & encourage both on & off the field. Not for everyone, but I promise it’s 100% worth it

Unbelievable night for our program. One of my fave nights as a Triton as a player or Coach! First goal was out of this world. Team move & great finish. One I’d have been proud of. Setpiece goal & saved a penalty! Into the semis on Thursday!
A pair of first half goals and a clutch defensive performance fueled Eckerd to a 2-0 victory Monday night as Eckerd advanced to the SSC Semifinals for the second time in program history.
