I meant to say this earlier, but the soccer banner has been a terrific touch to the Web site. Many kudos! :D

Absolutely,

Go Ponies, beat the Turtles!

BTW, swimming and diving would be a great banner too. Women are ranked 7th in the U.S.

Did y'all see the new PF.com Final Four preview story on the homepage? A hell of a lot better and more complete than anything the DMN or Daily Campus (HA!) would ever do. Here's the link:

Great work. What I keep seeing repeated is Coach Hyndman's assertion that the guys are playing for themselves as a TEAM. He even made that poin to me in a reply to an email I had sent him. You could see that too when they played unc. After unc scored the tying goal, the team got together, and from afar, it sure looked like they were challenging one another, and came out as determined as ever.

By the end of the game against unc, the crowd had gotten to a good size, with a number of students gathered outside along a dorm that overlooks Fetzer Field. Their eventual silence was stunning. The sheer joy that overcame the Mustangs was beyond description. Their rousing lead in singing "Varsity" was inspiring.

There is no reason for this team to fear anyone. If they can overcome the season as they have, I see the result. A new trophy shall rest at SMU.

Go Ponies! And thank you Pony Fans!
