Congratulations Men's Soccer

As the first post of the week, I would be positively remiss not to talk about the University of Maryland men's soccer team, which won the national championship for the second time in four seasons. Graham Zusi scored both of the team's goals in their 1-0 defeats of St. John's and the University of North Carolina in the semifinal and national championship game, respectively. He was named Most Outstanding Player of the College Cup.

I know a lot of you watched the game because it was on ESPN2, but I didn't get a chance to (I was at the Ravens-Steelers game). Because of that, I can't provide any analysis of the matter, but if you want to read all about it, go to http://www.blogger.com/www.umterps.com. On the first page, it also provides a link so that you can send messages to congratulate the team.

Congratulations men. You made University of Maryland students proud.
Edit: Just to add on, head coach Sasho Cirovski called this team one of the best in Maryland history last week (when they beat Creighton). The Terps were one of the best teams in the nation and deserved this title. Congrats to them. -Tyler
