3:11 - Hello and welcome to the first women's soccer blog of the year! SID Tim here and I'll be bringing you all the action from Milwaukee's first contest against Tennessee. Kick off is just under an hour away and both teams are on the field on this hot, muggy day. Feel free send any questions if you have them either here, or on twitter @TimPrahl or @MKE_WSoccer.
5:53 - Goal disallowed by an offside for Tennessee and that's all she wrote. Rough way to start the season for Milwaukee. Thanks for following. Panthers look to regroup against Oregon on Sunday at 11:30 a.m.
5:48 - Corner taken by Kauffung and Lewers blasts in but into a wall of defenders and cleared out.
5:46 - Worthington back on, this time for Behnke. 6 minutes left in the match.
5:44 - A peak around the other league scores and Oakland fell 4-0 to Western Michigan in their opener. Detroit's down 2-1 to Toledo at the break. Green Bay looks to be up 3-1 on IUPUI late in the 2nd.
5:42 - Freekick in the attacking area by Stephans finds the head of Lewers but it goes just wide.
5:39 - Two more collegiate debuts as Jen Eberhardy set to check in for Maria and Erin Corrigan about to take Van Keulen's spot.
5:34 - Sky Perna comes on for Kelly Manski after the goal.
5:33 - Goal by #9 for UT. 20 minutes left in this one.
5:31 - Water break's over and Senn checks back in for Dorre. Let's see if the youngsters can duplicate some of the magic they created against Drake in the exhibition...
5:28 - WATER BREAK #2! Also, Anna Smalley makes her collegiate debut, filling in for Holbert.
5:25 - I think Tennessee has subbed their entire team so far this half.
5:23 - Header by Lewers in the box was going just wide but Vienna was there and rocketed it toward the far post but the UT keeper made a diving save to keep the clean sheet in tact so far.
5:20 - Maddie Tetzke set to check in again for Morgan. Tennessee is definitely bigger than most of the Milwaukee players but Morgan and Maddie are pretty quick and have caused problems in that area.
5:17 - Manski ends up with the ball at her feet just inside the box but had to rush her shot and a dipping ball just went over the top left corner.
5:14 - Lewers comes back into the game for Anny and Amy Kauffung checks in for Caity on the left.
5:09 - Same way Wilkinson scored her second. Whipped in from the wing and headed in on the backside. Oops, and West started the second for Worthington. No other changes for Milwaukee.
5:08 - Goal UT. Header by #14 Neal on a cross from the left wing.
5:06 - Second half underway. UT starts with it but Milwaukee takes it away. Holbert takes it right up the middle and feeds Dorre in the box. Shot went just high. Best look all game.
5:00 - SID Tim's thoughts on the first half...Milwaukee came out a little rusty to start the season and UT's international stud made them pay. From around the 10th minute on, the game has been more even, though Tennessee has the majority of the chances. Milwaukee's best chances haven't resulted in shots so that stat is a little skewed...Lots of newcomers already playing with Blanchard starting and West, Senn and Tetzke already seeing the field as subs. All have looked pretty comfortable so far. Senn has shown a few flashes up top and Cassidy has been pretty solid in the back (from what I've seen)...Panthers really aren't out of this game, despite the score. Just need to make the big gun better and be a little more dangerous/link up better up top and can easily come back. It was this same field where they were down 3-0 last year to Vanderbilt before a crazy second half resulted in a 4-4 draw.
4:53 - Halftime stats
UT UWM
Shots 8 1
Saves 1 1
Corners 2 0
Fouls 6 2
4:50 - Halftime here in Madison. I'll have stats and my two cents here shortly
4:45 - Tennessee with a corner and it ends up in the back of the net off a Panther.
4:41 - GREAT save by Paige. Busted play in the box and Paige committed early and made a huge save! Maddie Tetzke about to make her collegiate debut for Morgan. Lots of newcomers checking in already. Shows what the coaches think about this year's freshman class.
4:35 - Lots going on suddenly. UT sent a ball into the box from the right and Wilkinson jumped over everyone and headed it near post to make it 2-0. A few subs now for Tennessee and Lewers in for Behnke for the Panthers.
4:33 - Wilkinson with a header and it's 2-0 Tennessee.
4:27 - 25th minute and freshman Sydney Senn makes her collegiate debut, checking in for Dorre.
4:22 - Water Break! UWM with quite a few more chances in the last 8-10 minutes. Definitely took a few minutes to settle in and get the rhythm of the game. We'll blame it on preseason jitters.
4:20 - First sub of the year, Anny West makes her Milwaukee debut, taking Worthington's spot.
4:18 - Vienna with a shot off a set piece that was perfectly executed but a nice save by UT.
4:13 - Behnke curls up the left side and crosses on into the box but the keeper was waiting. Best chance so far for Milwaukee.
4:10 - Goal came on a ball lobbed into the box where Wikinson was waiting. A UWM defender was there (couldn't see who) but fell down and it was an easy finish for the goal scorer.
4:08 - Wilkinson scores her first of the year for Tennessee and UT takes a 1-0 lead.
4:04 - UT flagged for off side and that's the first whistle of the game. Tennessee immediately wins the ball back and Paige comes out for a tackle on the edge of the box and it's cleared from danger. Five minutes in and that was the first chance for either team.
4:02 - Wisconsin says they're having GameTracker issues and have called tech support to come help. Hopeful it can be fixed shortly.
4:01 - And the 2014 season is officially underway! Panthers start with the ball...
3:58 - Also, refs just informed us there will be water breaks during the game. Likely just one per half, but it is mighty warm and humid here today. Weather.com says it's 86 degrees but feels like 93 with the humidity.
3:57 - Milwaukee's rolling with their all-white kit and Tennessee's sporting their orange tops with white shorts and orange socks.
3:52 - Tennessee counters with Simmons in net, Sirna, Morrow, Santorio and Wade at D. Ferguson, Christy and Spade are listed as midfield with Wilkinson, McClung and Parry up top. Volunteers running a 4-3-3. Wilkinson's their player to watch. Lots of preseason pub about her in various publications. The senior from New Zealand has also played in both the FIFA World Cup in 2011 and the 2012 London Olympics. Not bad.
3:49 - Starters for the first game of the year are in! Paige is back in net to start her sophomore season. The back line starts with Kelly Manski, Rachael, freshman Cassidy Blanchard and Caity. Midfielders are Morgan, Vienna, Kelsey, Maria and Emma, with Krissy slotted as the lone forward.
3:38 - A few notes from around the league while we wait for kickoff, Youngstown State dropped their opener to New Hampshire, 1-0. Also, if live stats are working, Oakland-Western Michigan and Detroit-Toledo are both scoreless in the first half.
3:20 - Warm ups underway... also, sorry, but word is that there's no live stream of either game this weekend. Here's to hoping GameTracker doesn't crash on the opening weekend!
5:48 - Corner taken by Kauffung and Lewers blasts in but into a wall of defenders and cleared out.
5:46 - Worthington back on, this time for Behnke. 6 minutes left in the match.
