Women's Soccer - SMU vs. Colorado College
Posted: Wed Oct 19, 2011 8:51 pmWell, the season has come down to three road C-USA games which start Friday in Colorado Springs against the Colorado College Tigers - in a game that starts at 4pm Central time for some reason. Do they not have lights or something?
Anyway - looking at the rankings and RPI and stuff is mainly for entertainment purposes at this point (although it is nice to still be getting some votes in the regional poll). SMU needs to put up points in these final three games and finish second in the conference regular season standings.
The health of leading scorer Kenzie Scovill is certainly in question for this weekend. Anybody watching Sunday saw another potential injury late but let's all hope that was nothing too concerning.
It is seriously put up or shut up time for this team. After the events of Sunday this season could obviously go in two very different directions. Personally, I think this SMU team has enough heart and leadership to not let one play - as uncharacteristic as any play you could possibly dream of - derail a team who is the only one in the country to take any points from Memphis this season.
On the bright side, when the schedule comes out and you have a match at Colorado College in late October you always wonder about the weather. The forecast is fantastic for Friday - sunny with a high of 69!
GO PONIES!!!!!
