Cougars hosting South Carolina on Fox Soccer

Post by charlestondxman »

The Cougars are hosting ranked South Carolina on August 26 at 8pm from Patriots' Point as the kickoff of their college soccer slate for the season. Big game for the Cougars.

This should be great and hopefully a sell out. SOOO many kids play soccer in this tri-county area.

Is it at 6:00 PM or 8:00 PM?

I'm guessing this will be both Mr. Tanner Clay of Arizona and the AJAX European kid's first match as a Charleston Cougar.

Problem is it's the first week of HS football regular season for everyone, so there might be less of a crowd. Wando's on the road though and Bishop England and West Ashley play the night before so that might increase the chances of more kids going to the game.

It's still looking like the game will be on for Friday night. The College got a HUGE break, as all Charleston County games have been moved back to Thursday night for "Irene", and only a few private schools and a couple in Berkeley County are staying on Friday.

Except for a scant number of high schools playing, this might be the only thing still going on Friday night, meaning that the media will cover it more.

The game is at 6pm, by the way.

Well, the game is a big one because South Carolina is ranked #20 in the country, because the game is the only nationally-televised college soccer game of the weekend (first game to air for the season), and because the game involves two of the three winningest coaches in college soccer, Mark Berson of South Carolina and Ralph Lundy.

The soccer game has been postponed from today at 6 o'clock to Sunday night at 6pm because of the hurricane. Don't know if the game will still air on television. It might air on tape-delay.

There has already been wind problems today, with powerlines going down on Folly blocking the way to the island.

The Women's Professional Soccer Championship Western NY Flash vs. Philadelphia Independence is currently scheduled (not live) on FSC on Sunday at 6:00. Since the event is not live, hopefully that will get bumped for our game.
