Big game. King's really need a win after losing to Holland College in the opener and St. Thomas yesterday, 1-0. They've beaten NSAC, but most of the better teams will beat NSAC this year.
1min: King's kick off.
3min: There may be some statement-making this afternoon. Watch out.

As It Happened: UKC Blue Devils (W) v. UNB Saint John Seawolves (W)
By: Dylan Matthias
Hello to all wet Haligonians and all other wet people everywhere. Today, I am one of you. This misty-like rain is covering Wickwire Field. It doesn't make you actively wet, but after thirty minutes, you feel like you're coming out of the shower and you don't dry.

Setting the Record Straight: A Few Updates After a Long Week
By: Dylan Matthias
A few things happened over the weekend: Colleen MacDonald and Gillian Clarke of the Dal women's team transferred to King's. Zach Bauld, initially recruited by Dal, is now at SMU. It's wilder than late August in the EPL.
This weekend sees the Tigers host a Cape Breton program whose teams suffered three major upset losses on the weekend to UPEI and MUN. SSN will have the game with Dal Soccer Live blogger Dylan Matthias providing colour commentary with Bill McLean. You can see the games at Wickwire field on Saturday at 5pm and 7:15pm.

Previewing the Weekend: Dalhousie - Acadia
By: Dylan Matthias
We here at Dal Soccer Live have been counting down the days. And it's finally here--the start of the AUS soccer season. Dalhousie and Acadia on Wickwire Field. Here's hoping it doesn't rain.
The storylines are there. The 1pm women's game will be Amit Batra's first game in charge of Acadia after leading MSVU to two nearly undefeated seasons. Rookies Charlotte Nutt and Daphne Wallace will be playing against one another, after having been teammates in Ottawa.

Breaking Down Batra's Recruits: Acadia Women's Soccer
By: Dylan Matthias
The Acadia women's recruits have been in for about a week (sorry, sorry) and we'll take a moment before their opener against Dal on Saturday to break them down.
The group is big on Nova Scotia provincial team players, adding Alana Fairfax, Erica McAdam, and Julia McKinnon. McAdam is a midfielder and McKinnon a goalkeeper. Fairfax, as far as we can surmise, is probably a striker given how often she pops up in various scoring summaries of games she's played in.

As It Happened: Preseason: Dalhousie (M) v. Saint Mary's Huskies (M)
By Dylan Matthias
Hello, and welcome to the men. In coming weeks, we will strive to have minute-by-minute photos. Not this week. Please also remember that this is preseason, so we don't have formal rosters yet. Some names may be off. Where we're unsure, we'll just use a shirt number.

As It Happened: Pre-Season: Dalhousie (W) v. Saint Mary's Huskies (W)
By Dylan Matthias
(Dal Soccer Live likes to arrive fashionably late because we feel it makes us look like the highly swanky, very busy, I-have-a-BlackBerry-on-ALL-the-time mainstream media we are trained to be. But today, we just ran into a big traffic snafu on the MacDonald bridge. So this game started for us in the third minute.)

Dalhousie Men Announce Recruits
--By Dylan Matthias
The Tigers men's soccer team has finally announced its recruiting class for thr 2010 season. It's a defense-heavy group which will likely see more time in 2011 and 2012 than 2010, but head coach Pat Nearing has fulfilled his main recruiting goals: a left back and a striker.
