This version of the Cats soccer team seems like night and day from last year's version. These Cats are quick and fast. They pass well and with purpose. They win 50/50 balls. They lead this game 2-0 in the 1st half and have played almost the whole half on Permian's side.

What a dominant 1st half. Cats lead 3-0. Chayse Thorne 2 more goals.

Update:Cats win 5-0. Thorne with 3 goals. We got some thoroughbreds on this team. # 8 is special. Our passing and "dribbling" (is that the right term?) are much improved from last year. We play so much faster than in previous years and together as a team. Count me impressed.

The Soccer Cats start WAC play at UTRioGrandeValley tomorrow followed by at SFA on Sunday.
They start WAC play at 5-3-1. Their only losses are to 3 Big12 teams. Will be watching closely.

Ladies lose to UTRGV 1-0 on a penalty kick. You look at the stats and think, wth, how did they win? You go back and watch the game though and we had no strategy for our shots. They would stack the box defensively and we couldn't get a clean shot. We never adjusted though. That's on us.

I am no soccer specialist but I don't think a few long range kicks are an effective way to attack their defense.

I see that soccer beat SFA 2-0 today with Chayse Thorn getting 2 more goals. A bright light amid a dark weekend.

Chayse is tied for 2nd in goals in the WAC with 9. However, she is tied for first in goals per game sice GCU has played 10 games and ACU has played 9.
The team gets a week's rest before playing TSU next Sunday in Abilene. They have a 1-1 tie with SFA and beat UTRGV on a late goal 1-0.
We play everyone once and only the top 6 teams go to the post-season tournament.

I just watched the Sunday soccer game that the Cats won over Tarleton. The 1st goal of the game by Chayse Thorn was one of the most impressive goals I've ever seen. Thorn is very, very impressive.

She is a winner for sure, and looks like she could play further, meaning after college.

I wonder, the Wildcats play on Thursday in Utah and again on Sunday, also in Utah. I wonder if they will stay up there for the two off days? There are lots of astonishing National Parks to visit in Utah.
