Soccer opened the year with the first official game of the year at UL-L with a 4-1 loss.  Their next game will be at Texas A&M this Sunday.  Soccer will have four games completed before Volleyball or football play their first games.

Soccer falls 1-0 at Texas A&M.  A&M scored with about three minutes left.  Good effort by the Cards.

Soccer falls again at UTSA in a 1-0 decision.  UTSA got their lone goal on a penalty kick at around the 80th minute.  Lamar had a chance to tie the game with a PK as time ran out but could not convert.  Soccer hosts UC-Davis on Thursday and goes to Sam H next Sunday.  Volleyball gets started with three matches between Friday and Saturday and Football starts Saturday evening in Denton.

I watched the 2nd half. Granted, Im not much of a soccer fan, but Lamars offense sucks.  They play something a little less exciting than Dean Smiths 4 corners basketball offense.
 

 This must be why Europeans get so drunk at games!

Lamar - UC Davis match ends in a scoreless tie.  I am not enough of a soccer fan to be able to tell if Lamar has an offense strategy or execution problem but only scoring one goal in four matches doesn't seem good enough to me.  Soccer travels to Sam H this Sunday.  Volleyball begins their non-conference schedule with two matches tomorrow and one on Saturday.

Volleyball falls in both matches today.  The first match with Northern Illinois went all five sets with the first four sets all two-point decisions before falling 15-6 in the final set. The second match with Southern Mississippi only went three sets but again with both of the first two sets two-point decisions.  Lamar will face Stetson tomorrow morning.
