Are we there yet?

The Dragons are almost 1/2 way through the 2010 CAA season.  With the 6th game of an 11 game CAA schedule coming up tomorrow, Drexel looks grab a crucial 3 points from Georgia State.  So far the Dragons have been zig-zagging their way through the first half of a tough CAA schedule.  They struggled at the start with two losses, one to William & Mary (Away 1-2) and another to UNC Wilmington (Home on Alumni Day 0-1).  They kicked it back into gear with two consecutive wins, one against George Mason (Home 4-1) and then again against Towson (Away 4-3).  This Wednesday they dropped back to 2-3 in the CAA with a loss to Delaware (Away 1-2) and are sitting at the #8 spot on the CAA table.  Check out drexeldragons.com for the official archived stories on each game so far this season & the archived blog posts from The Ineligibles to catch up on any news you've missed, drexeldragons.com also has the official preview up of tomorrow's Georgia State game on the website.  

Tomorrow's game isn't a "must win" but its starting to get very close to that for Drexel.  While Drexel is currently ranked among the top 50 of the national RPI Rankings, the only thing that really matters is keeping a solid record in the rest of the CAA games so that we end up in the top 4 come November.  Georgia State is next and hopefully the confidence of playing at home can see the boys improve to 3-3.  My guess is that it will be Senior Nate Baker (currently on a 3 goal in 3 game streak) or Freshman Kenny Tribbet (who just seems to come through in the clutch) that will cash in on the winning goal for us tomorrow.  Kickoff is at 3:00pm at Vidas Field, and free food and appropriate beverages will be supplied as always by Cavanaugh's Restaurant & Sports Bar.
