No. 1 seed Rutgers Women’s Soccer hosted No. 2 seed Arkansas for the Quarterfinals on Friday, And Won going to the College Cup!
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
What the hell? Season isn’t complete. Two more wins to go.
Sounded like Rutgers controlled play in 2nd half and OT. Grfeat job Ladies.
Actually, Arkansas had sustained possession for a long stretch in the 2nd half. We had trouble playing out of the back into the wind. But we adjusted and had some good chances late and in OT.
Now tonight I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED the aggressive play. I thought O'Neill and his coaches did a tremendous job attacking Arkansas' defense.
Kudos to our women for a tough gutsy performance. Way to go ladies!

They're cranking "Glory Days" by Springsteen over the loudspeakers at Yurcak--perfect ending to a fantastic game!!

Thanks. I got to watch most of the game thanks to your info.
Including the exciting conclusion.
😎
Riley is funny. These interviews are so dumb. The players have to be thinking “can I go now, please”?
Those pictures after the PKs = "the thrill of victory and the agony of defeat"
Many tears on the Arkansas side with the camera especially finding their goalie.

Stayed up with my 6 year old daughter and watched the whole game. So great. I coach her team, and she’s hooked after that!
Arkansas's style definitely presented problems for us most of the game, but RU persevered. Once again our ladies had guts of steel down the stretch. Let's do this... 2 more wins!
To win just once would be enough
For those who've lost in life and love
For those who've lost their guile and nerve
Their innocence, and their drive and verve
For those who feel they've been mistreated
Discriminated, robbed or cheated
To claim one victory inspired
To win just once is their desire
To win just once
To win just once
To win just once
That would be enough
To win just once against the odds
And once be smiled on by the gods...
Keeping hope alive for RU's first team NCAA title!
It's always emotional for the seniors for whom this was their last game in college. It's a beautiful and a sad moment for them as they move on with their lives. My two surrogate daughters went to U. of Arkansas, so I have a special place in my heart for the Razorbacks. And then of course there's @Southern Gentleman, who's top shelf in his own right. WPS, and GO RU!!!
Wonderful job ladies. We are so proud of the job you did. Some team!
Now let's beat Maryland tomorrow (at noon) to go to a bowl, and beat UMass (at 2:00) in men's bball to prove that we aren't terrible!
YES!
UPSTREAM RED TEAM, RED TEAM UPSTREAM! RAH, RAH, RUTGERS RAH!!!
