With La Salle winning 1-0 and the clock under 10 seconds, an assistant (not Bobby Wilkinson), interfered with the action. JMU had a throw-in. The ball boy was tossing the ball to a JMU player. Our assistant knocked the ball away. The time on the clock ran out. JMU coaching staff rightfully went crazy. In an unprecedented move, the officials put 5 seconds back on the clock and allowed JMU to have a throw-in. Fortunately for La Salle not much happened on the play. Officially the match ended.
Personally, I would suspend and think about dismissing that assistant. The AD and HC need to take disciplinary action. That was a disgrace to the University and the program. For me, it ruined a great performance by MSOC. Congrats to the team on the road win and start to the season.

Disappointing. Never ends well when a coach for any sport feels the need to inject him/herself into the game. They're kids after all, and coaches need to be role models needed.

On the boxscore La Salle received a yellow card for delaying the game. It is not unprecedented that the referee stops the clock to issue a yellow card in college. But yes, it is a shame to have this stain on the reputation of the soccer team which is otherwise having a tremendous start to the season, especially defensively.
I noticed after the first two matches that the Explorers had not yet put up a goal in the run of play, but managed a 2-0 record because of the clean sheets. Now the goals have started to trickle in too, and the wins keep coming.

The clock ran out. After a discussion the three officials gave the La Salle bench a yellow card. They then placed :05 on the game clock to allow JMU a throw-in in the La Salle defensive end. I have never seen a College Soccer match where the officials added time after the game ended. It was the right call. I think :05 was too short.

Looking at the picture on website, it is the coach on the right (new guy). |

Didn't realize McCarthy was an assistant. Pretty surprising since he is also on the roster for the Philadelphia Union- and I believe played some for them as well as Bethelehem Steel this season.

Seems smart to start on a second career during a first career with a very finite lifespan.

Seems smart to start on a second career during a first career with a very finite lifespan. Very smart. I'm sure it can't hurt their recruiting. "Coach McCarthy can't make it to see you today because he's starting against the LA Galaxy tonight" |

It's a win-win for all parties. He's building a long-term future while La Salle can say our coach is current professional. It works for recruiting.
