Liveblogging: Richmond Rowdies vs Maryland Tigers

I’m at the Richmond Rowdies game with my laptop, clearwire and a battery doing some liveblogging. The Rowdies kick off their season tonight at SCOR. I absolutely LOVE indoor soccer and am very excited about the Rowdies! I’ll try to put up some photos and maybe a video clip or two during the game along with some comments. Apparently my batteries are just about dead so I’ll be light on the photos and videos. Next game.

They are doing the introductions right now. There is a good size crowd here for the Rowdies and even about 20 people here for the Tigers.

Rowdies Intro

The Rowdies scored first on a long drifting kick that the Tigers goalie couldn’t handle. 1-0 Rowdies!

The Tigers tie it up 1-1 on a nice give and go. 1-1

The Rowdies go up 2-1 on a goal by Ralph Pace that sneaked in after some bumping in the corner!

Make that 3-1 on a goal by coach/midfielder Kyle Lessig!

End of the first period. Still 3-1.

Rowdies Action!

Second period action is pretty intense but no scores yet. I’m going to have to learn all the PASL rules as they have penalty box type stuff.

The Tigers pick up a goal off the scramble after a free kick. 3-2

And that is the half. 3-2 Rowdies. We have some kids(under 12) coming out to play a mini-game at halftime.

The second half is under way! The Tigers have come out aggressive!

Rowdies goal on a powerful kick by a player whose name I can’t pronounce. 4-2!

Rowdies goal by Andy McIntosh! 5-2!

Tigers get a goal on a fast break. 5-3

Tigers get another as the Rowdies didn’t rotate on defense. 5-4

Rowdies goal by Andy McIntosh as he gets the ball away from their goalie. End of the 3rd period with a score of 6-4

Rowdies goal on a POWERFUL kick on Andy McIntosh! 7-4

Rowdies goal on nice passing! Finished by Chris Green, 8-4!

Fantastic acrobatic save by the Rowdies GK Tommy Wendall!

The Rowdies win 8-4!!! The Rowdies will next be home on January 5th hosting the Virginia(Williamsburg) Legacy. Come on out and support the team! I may try to do some live video from that one.

Are there any indoor soccer fans out there? I don’t know about you, but I love watching(and occasionally playing) indoor soccer. Lucky for us we have the semi-pro Richmond Rowdies in town! The Rowdies are playing in the PASL(official minor league of the MISL) and will play their home games at SCOR. Games are just $5 for adults and free for anyone under 18(!). While the official schedule has not been released yet I’ve found out that their first game will be December 1st at 7pm at home(SCOR) against the Maryland Tigers. Put that date on your calendar and I’ll be reminding you again about it.

Also, if you are significantly better than I am at playing indoor soccer and want to try out for the Rowdies you can find out more about their upcoming(Nov 4th) open tryout at the SCOR website.
