Teams do what they do in order to compete. Sometimes it may appear "ugly" in an effort to get a result.
You must have been real tough on Dean Smith!

My only problem with the style is that many of us that see alot of SCISA soccer think that Ashley Hall has the athletes to compete at a high level in SCISA. I have thought that for years now. But it seems to the observer that they are content to "lose close". I just don't think that it is fair to the kids to chalk up a loss before the game ever starts.
As an aside, if the "result" that my coach wanted to acheive in any sport was a close loss, I would not play for that coach.
