Their new keeper has definitely been a big part of their improvement. Is their forward new as well? Two difference makers on that team when my son's team played them. They are a bit inconsistent but so are lots of the teams this age. -
Yes, the new forward was "cut" from WUSC and WSM, but OSA picked him up and he's been a great addition and is definitely making an impact. Just goes to show you that success happens to the kid and different clubs when changes are made. Good luck to OSA this year!!Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

They have provided a much needed physical style of play other players on the team have started to pick up.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

As a WUSC parents i have to say that was one of the best games ive seen in days...
WUSC struggle and i think that it was one of the hardest games to win, Good game to watch really enjoy it because EMFC is a really good team and you never know what they are gonna show.

Current standings:Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
Eastside = 16pts
WUSC = 16pts
OSA = 10pts
FC = 8pts
Eugene = 7pts
WSM = 5pts
LO = 2pts
NEU = 2pts
Saturday:
LO vs FC: FC Wins; they had a great game vs OSA last weekend and may have found their form. FC has a good defense and should prevent LO from scoring
Eastside vs OSA: Eastside Wins; OSA could give Eastside a run for their money if their main forward is back to playing. If not Eastside could dominate with their physicality and blow out OSA
NEU vs Eugene: Eugene wins; There isn't a reason why Eugene should win. NEU has some good players but Eugene all around is a better team
WSM vs WUSC: WUSC wins; next to Eastside I don't think there is a team that can compete (maybe Eugene and FC). WSM has talent but for some reason does not play well as a team.
Sunday:
LO vs WSM: Toss up I will go with LO; I think LO has speed that WSM might not be able to deal with.
Eastside vs Eugene: Should be a close game; Eastside wins by one. Again Eugene is just below Eastside with their level of play.
FC vs WUSC: WUSC wins; should be another good game but FC and Eugene battle for 3rd and 4th place. FC does have a strong defense. But WUSC has too much in the attack.Comment

Eastside and Willamette are deep enough they should be favorites against the rest of the group. Since we are talking about 13 year olds, my bold prediction is the the team with fewest injuries, the most sleep and plays with the most passion will win. The wildcard comes when girlfriends/potential girlfriends are watching. Hard to know how most teams will play until they show up. That is all I have for this week.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

WUSC 3 vs. WSM 2
WSM team had better control and possession. It was clear they came to play. Several scoring opportunities on the WUSC keeper and they played more than 50% on WUSC end of the field. It's pretty clear the new WSM coach is developing an interesting style of play that is going to create a tough competitive team by Spring.
WUSC seemed a little out of synch today. Keeper had some great saves. Could have went either way today.
What an upset this would have been .....Comment

WSM 2 - Lake Oswego -0-
WSM prevailed.
Lake O's speed couldn't get past WSM back defensive line.
Both teams pretty equal in the mid, but the WSM offensive attack was too much for the LO keeper. LO should put some of their speed on the back line, this would help. Big guys on the back won't work in the long run, if they can't run down the ball.Comment

Any predictions for this weekend?

For Sunday

Standings:
Eastside 20 pts
WUSC 20 pts
FC 12 pts
Eugene 11 pts
OSA 10 pts
WSM 8 pts
LO 2 pts
NEU 2 pts
Saturday: I could see each of these games going as a tie.
NEU vs WSM: WSM should win this game. but they will need to play together. If NEU's big forward and CM can get in behind WSM defense they could cause problems
Eugene vs FC: Eugene. I think Eugene will be on a high from making it to NWCL semi's and will play well
LO vs OSA: LO gets their first win. Normally I would say OSA; but I think LO is due.
Eastside vs WUSC: Sluggfest. If I go based on last weekend WUSC wins; sounded like Eastside struggled at NWCL
Sunday: All of these games have potential blowouts
FC vs OSA: FC
Eugene vs WSM: Eugene
NEU vs WUSC: WUSC
Eastside vs LO: EastsideComment
