It is sunny and 45 degrees.  Not Florida-like weather, but better than Chicago!

Greensboro College and the Bryan Park administration has set up a great venue here for the tournament.  And there is a very vocal Messiah and Loras crowd here adding to the atmosphere. 

Messiah has taken a 1-0 lead on a beautiful goal by Nick Thompson.  It was set up as a cross from a throw in by Pezon.  The oportunity for Thompson was too good to miss and DuBois really didn’t have a chance for a save.

Loras has been on their heals a bit after the goals but at the 35 minute mark, they started applying pressure, creating some nice opportunities.  Loras is good when they can control the midfield - and slow down Messiah’s attack as a result.
