The crowd was AWESOME last night! Great win over a top 20 team, and Creighton looked pretty darn good for a first game.

Too bad they scheduled the basketball game the same night as senior night for soccer. This is a huge game too, against Providence for the Big East Title.

Creighton loses 0-0 (3-4 pk). Goalies stopped one pk shot each, CU hit the side post in another.

MadMartin8 · Post by **MadMartin8** » Sat Dec 06, 2014 10:35 am

It was a great game to watch...although a bit cold outside. Ultimately the ref let the teams play pretty openly, and UMBC was VERY VERY physical, which hurt Creighton.

Good season given expectations at the start of the year. Time to prepare for next year.
