CCU won 5-1 last night. CCU moved the ball well and like every other team kept us on our heels most of the night. Upstate did lose its second and last keeper to a knee injury during the game. The starting keeper is out with an ACL and now the Freshman keeper may be out the rest of the season or at least a week or two with MCL problems. Our star defensive back played keeper last night for the rest of the game and Upstate will now looks at field players for a new keeper.
If CCU had a problem it was in the defense becoming unorganized and allowing players to run free in the back. If it wasn't for the excellent play by the middle back on CCU, things could have been switched. But their Mid-Field play and ability to move the ball around was excellent. In fact they moved the ball so well that they gave themselves lots of opportunites to score but just couldn't cash in on it. CCU will be fine by the end of the season and should be a lot better next season, because all those things are correctable.
