Up to 36 in the RPI. A lot of room to move up too with 59, 51, and 58 being our next three games.

I'm fired up for this game today. Cornell-Syracuse games have not disappointed recently and a win here would be massive for our at large chances. Plus the night games at Berman have a great vibe.

Man, should be up 1-0 already and melly is injured

And Cuse scores their first chance of the game after we spoil three great through balls from miller and multiple crosses right along the goal line

We're generating an incredible amount of chances but the finishing has been so atrocious that we still don't have a shot on goal. But hey, at least we're looking like the better team. We've been a second half team recently and we need to be today.

Awesome game and an amazing win. This team is pretty special.

Not to be overlooked, but the Cornell women's soccer team, an Ivy doormat for decades, rallied last weekend to defeat Penn, 2-1, on the road. It was the first time Cornell won at Penn in 30 years!
Cornell closes the season with games against Brown and Dartmouth, the two teams right ahead of it in the standings. If Cornell can beat those two teams and get a little help, it might be able to grab the final spot in the Ivy tournament, which would be an amazing accomplishment.

Unrelated to this thread, but it would be interesting to track the performance of all varsity women's teams in the past few few years since Nikki Moore has been AD. One of the biggest criticisms of Andy was that many women's teams were chronically not performing well and we've seen a few coaching changes since he left.
