BU13 WSM Usonians 2:2 WUSC Barcelona. Scoreless at half. Metros went up 2-0 after a very nice volley and later off a beautiful cross. Barca rallied late with two phenomenal FKs just beneath the bar. GG, both teams. -

The Onyx coach arranges alot of scrimmages and exchanges for his teams from within the state and region. The Nova squad must be willing to travel to get good competition.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

How about U16 OSSA vs THUSC? Number 1 & 2 in their bracket. What's the line on that game?Comment

Tough game to call. I believe that OSSA has won the last 2 games, but THUSC won 4 games prior to that. Very similar games. Very strong defenses and scoring power. I give the edge to THUSC only because I think they have more scoring weapons. Could be 1-0. Maybe 2-1 THUSC, but that's it. Both have some serious defense. Even their losses out of state are very low scoring.Originally posted by Unregistered View PostComment

U15 OSSA 7 -0 over THUSC Mercury, what happened here? Is the OSSA team finally starting to live up to their potential? Was Mercury missing players? Combination of both?
Anyone with some information on the game?Comment

OSSA did not win a game in their first 3 of the season, tying 2 and losing a game against FC which they were very unlucky to drop. Since then they have won all their games. They have scored 26 goals in 5 games and only given up 1. This is a team that only started to really practice together in January. They look dominant. FC PDX also looks good.Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
THUSC has only won one game all season and is in second to last place. They really should be in the lower division. It looks like the two teams at the top of the second division should move up and the uncompetitive teams at the bottom of the first division should drop down. It would be a better experience for the players to be in games with teams at a similar level.Comment

A couple of observations from one who saw the game:Originally posted by Unregistered View Post
1) OSSA Reign is really good.
2) Mercury had a bad day. It happens.
Let's leave talk of relegation out of the conversation, please. With the exception of Saturday's result, Mercury's games have ALL been competitive. Worth noting, Mercury rebounded with a 3-0 victory on Sunday against OSSA Breakers.
Hats off to OSSA Reign for a great game, and hats off to Mercury for having the mettle to bounce back strongly. See you at State Cup.Comment

I can see a team having an off day and that type of score. We beat FCPdx 6 to 0 at season start, but since then the U16 FCPdx girls have come up with scores looking like ours against opposing teams. Knowing many of the FC U16 girls, my dd goes to school with some and we have played with and against them for years, I know that score was not indicative of how that team is nor those girls.
So I don't know Mercury, but the Reign team is a good team and I can see them having a great game against a team having a bad day and posting a score like that. Looking at that bracket, FCPdx U15's look just as strong. For many ages, State will be very competitive and a measure of who is gelling and having a good day and game on that particular day. The top 3 teams in most divisions as pretty equal all in all.
Same story with us and Sodium. Different styles of soccer, but often just a score at gake end showing who had the bettet day, not the better team necessarily.Comment
