AKR 3-2 VIL FT Not as close as final score suggests. Zips lost concentration in the last half hour. Emil Jaaskelainen with the first half hat trick.
Check out the full volley, off a rebound, with the left foot. 1845243652693463486 is not a valid tweet id

DEP 0-4 AKR FT For various reasons, I did not watch this match. Is Depaul really that bad? With another two goals and an assist, I believe Emil Jaaskelainen is at 16g and 7a for 39pts. Akron Earns 4-0 Triumph at DePaul - University of Akron Athletics
DePaul has had 6 winning seasons since 1982, when they began playing men’s soccer. Probably says enough…
AKR 3-0 CRE FT Emil Jaaskelainen drew the PK which resulted in a yellow card that should have been red. And then he scored a nifty brace in the 2nd half. Jaaskelainen now has 18 goals and 7 assists in 14 matches. Zips are enjoying an 8 game winning streak. Next two Saturdays are at Marquette and at UConn. Surely Akron will drop points on at least one of those. Still much work to be done.
There’s no reason that they can’t win both of those matches. That said, I would rather see them lose now than in the postseason. I feel like they’re still not being respected. The USC poll from this past Tuesday has them at #24. I see more than a few above them that I feel confident they would beat. https://unitedsoccercoaches.org/rankings/college-rankings/ncaa-di-men/
