Well after a last season finish of a sad 4th place after heading into the tournament in 1st the UB women's soccer team seemed to pick it up where it left off heading into the second season. Where in the fall season we had enough girls to form two competitive teams, this season we started off with barely enough girls to play. The first two games were lost playing a man down and Wed practices were routinely canceled because of the spring time rain, and of course, playing only on Saturdays, with a majority of the members from out of the country, we were always losing players to vacations and late-night extravaganzas (the kind you can't get up in the morning after to play a soccer game).
However, in the second half of the season we started picking up some speed. Finally playing with a full team (and believe it or not a few subs!!!) UB has started to make a name for itself again. In the last 3 games we've gone 3-0 beating what were the first, second, and third place teams. Slowly creeping back up the rankings, it will take wins in the last two games to find ourselves in the tournament for first place. So long as we play as we have in the last 3 games there is almost no doubt that the tournament will be ours. Hopefully all trips to the moon and all night drinking brigades will be suspended until the tournament so that we can compete as a complete team and bring home the trophy we let slip through are fingers in the last season. Vamos UB!!!!!!!!!!
