Noticed the last game is in connection with a coaches clinic that Schellas is putting on that includes Steve Sampson.

ended up losing 3-2 to fc dallas. we were winning 1-0 most of the game. our guys were gased at the end. one of the highlights of the night was sandbo stopping a kenny cooper (us national team player) penalty kick, pretty awesome. all in all good effort against a solid mls team

Number 20 for SMU was fantastic. He will be a pro prospect.

SMU I thought controlled the run of play in the first half, when they were going with the win. FCD struggled to maintain possession at all in the first half, I thought former Mustang Nunez had a very poor game in the central midfield for FCD.

Second half, FCD started to get more of the run of play, playing with the wind. Ironically enough, the game turned when in the 70th minue, FCD had Bobby Rhine sent off, and played a man down for the rest of the match. The other players on FCD stepped it up a notch and really controlled the game from that point forward.
