UDM Soccer

Saturday(9/20/08), University of Detroit Mercy had a soccer game against University of Michigan. The game was a blowout, but you have to give UofDM some credit, they did score one goal. The final score came to UofM 5-UofDM 1. three of Michigan's goals were scored by the same person, achieving one of the few hattricks of Michigan history. Simon Zahra of UofDM scored their only goal, sniping it in from beyond the 18 yard line. Had my cousin been in net, well, let's just say the score wouldn't have been so high. They have another game Sunday(9/21/08) against Xavier. Hopefully it won't be a repeat of the UofM game. I'm hoping that he will get some playing time since the other two keepers had such a disasterous game. It's frustrating to know how talented he is and to not see him play. It's hard to imagine what the coaches are thinking not puting him in. And happy birthday to him, too!
