Taking advantage of a glorious day for soccer, SE’s from Maryland, Virginia and DC came out to College Park for a wee bit of NCAA futbol action. What they witnessed was a competitive contest between the Terps and Golden Bears in a round of 16 matchup.
Not only did the fans get a chance to get a sneak preview of some likely future MLS draft picks like Jeremy Hall, Casey Townsend and Omar Gonzalez, but they got a chance for some nailbiting action that ended in a victory for the home side.
That means of course, that the Maryland Terrapins will not only be in the Elite Eight, but also will host Creighton! So what more do you need? Come on out for a match that will draw thousands of fellow fans of the beautiful game. You can even buy tickets online (or at the gate):
If you want to arrange pre-match meeting spot or want to carpool to the game, leave a note in the comments!
What: #2 Maryland vs. #7 Creighton
When: 1pm, Saturday Dec. 6th
Where: Ludwig Field, College Park MD
Tickets: $10 for Adults; $6 for Youth/Senior
So I know some people want to tgate, is anyone bringing a grill? I’m always up for brunch (and as you know I can make pancakes for 100!!) But there is this new wacky pancake product http://www.batterblaster.com/ (I’m scared but intrigued)

How far is the soccer field from the football stadium?
I have a friend who works at the Apiary (where the bees are) and we could gather there.
These are the directions to the field

It’s close to University of Maryland University College
John, if you know anything about the UMCP campus, it’s across the big parking lots from Byrd and Cole.
Ludwig field is very close to Byrd Stadium. Parking in the Ludwig lot may be tight for this game so I’d park in the Stadium Drive garage and walk over.

If anyone needs a ride from Arlington (near Courthouse Metro) drop me a note at outreach@screaming-eagles.com. I plan to leave fairly early so that there is time to meet up with the tailgate crew!
