Re: ENCL Championships

Besides rostering anticipated players, ECNL teams are also allowed 2 additional spots just prior to the tournament deadline for players not migrating from other ECNL clubs.

Go North Texas!

Although they do have to play Lonestars today and they have been very strong lately. I think SoccerPlus Connecticut is the weak sister in the bracket and will lose all 3 games, thus promoting Solar and Lonestars to Group A ... assuming I understand this thing correctly.

Feet must win their bracket to get promoted ... 3 of 4 get relegated ... My guess is that they will pull it off.

What's the story on rosters? U15 or U16 roster? Broke ... did the new players travel for this one?

All of today's games are friendlies and have no bearing on standings. So...if Solar wins tomorrow against SoccerPlus CT...they will advance. I would imagine that both Lonestars and Solar will play their backups more today than usual to have their top players ready for tomorrow's games...which will determine final standings and promotions/relegations.

Good info ... thanks

Got to think Lonestars are IN ... congrats

Interesting game today between Solar and Lonestars. Both teams did not start many of their normal starters...as expected. Solar scored early and very late and Lonestars had two goals at the end and beginning of the first and second halves. It was almost as if the game were split into quadrants with each team winning two quadrants of time.

Fun game to watch. On the other field...Sting lost to CASL 1-3 and D'Feeters beat St. Louis Scott Gallagher 2-1. Wins tomorrow by Solar and D'Feeters ensuree they both are necessary for them to retain or earn Challenge A Status. Lonestars are already in.

Congrats to the Lonestars on their promotion to the A group. I think y'all will find the level of competition to be extremely high. I am hoping we are there with y'all and will find out later today if we can get past the MA. team. Solar should be able to secure their spot today against the CT. team shouldn't they? Have you had a chance to see any of Arsenal? I think they will give Sting a game today but I'll still be pulling for Blue.

Arsenal has a striker who scored all three goals against CASL in their semi-final win. Sting's strength I think most would agree is not their defense...so the game will turn on how they do against this exceptional young striker. We know Sting will have their offensive opportunities. Should be interesting game to watch with one eye as we play against San Juan FC for the preverbial Challenge B Championship on an adjacent field.

Scores from today?

by brokedawg 17/07/10, 06:35 pm

Last I heard, Sting going to PK'S and D'Feeters win 3-1 over Stars of MA. to stay in the A group. Havent heard anything further. Sting wins on PK'S. Solar promoted into A group.

Sting won inaugural ECNL U15 National Championship on PKs after 2-2 overtime game against Arsenal. Solar beat SoccerPlus to earn the third and final promotion spot in Challenge A for next year. Lonestars also tied 2-2 in regulation of the Challenge B final and lost on the 8th round of PKs to San Juan FC from Northern California. Very goo team.

Congrats to all the Texas teams and welcome to the A group Lonestars, Solar and San Juan SC.
