And here we are again.......The Redstickers of SJA travel west to face the Cougars of STM. The past five matches have been nothing short of spectacular. Each of those matches either ending in a draw or a one goal victory for STM.
They both sit #1 in power rankings, they both sit #1 and #2 in "my' poll, and both are nationally ranked.....what more could one ask for.
On the surface this games means nothing in terms of playoff position as both will stay #1 heading into the playoffs. I feel its what is behind the scenes that makes it special. Does the Streak continue heading into what will be STM's 7th championship in a row. Does SJA get the monkey of back against the cougars and finally get the W. You want a confidence booster heading into the playoffs........well here it is!
Get your popcorn popped and get ready..........it's SHOWTIME!!

Must have still been worn out from that comeback win a few Friday nights at St. Scholastica Academy. Thanks for the gift basket red-stickers fans, the Doves didn’t realize how much they took out of the Cougars that they would still be worn out from that come back win. Congratulations to the Red-Stickers. Just engraved that trophy for the second year.

Good news from last night is we still hate losing more than we love winning. Look out in the playoffs bc our girls are more focused on the task in front of us than they have been in several years. My recommendation for the doves is to attempt & follow the eagles path & avoid playing SJA at all cost. 😜 |

Ha - SJA finally wins one vs STM - one in the past 5 matches vs STM and they want to start chirping.
SJA has been one of the most underachieving D1 programs over the past 20 years - finally win a state championship and think they are SSA, MCA or Dominican. Slow the roll redstickers until you make a mutli-year championship run.
Good Luck in the playoffs

But you definitely seem salty. |

Ok, So I'll bite. I am so confused as well. Were people chirping on this platform?? Were SJA fans chirping at Cougar Stadium?? Is SoccerPop a SJA fan?? I could of swore its a SSA parent firing some friendly banter back at Lasoccercoach from his earlier post when he talked about the gift basket SJA sent him. If we are going to talk trash, we need to make sure we have it straight.
I like to compare the most recent apples to apples...Here are the four big names in a side by side comparison
2023
SJA (State Champions) SSA (Quarter loss) MCA(quarter loss) Dom (Semi Finalist)
2022
SJA (Finalist ) SSA (Quarter loss) MCA(quarter loss) Dom(State Champion)
2021
SJA (Semi Finalist ) SSA (Quarter loss) MCA(State Champion) Dom ( Finalist)
2020
SJA (Quarter Loss) SSA (Regional Loss) MCA(Quarter loss) Dom (Semi Finalist)
2019
SJA (Quarter loss) SSA (State Champions) MCA(Regional Loss) Dom( Quarter Loss)
2018
SJA (Regional loss) SSA (State Champions) MCA(Quarter loss) Dom(Regional loss)
Happy trash talking yall. Im here for it. Can't wait to get these playoffs started.
P.S. I wouldn't want to get in STM’s way. The streak is behind them and they are now playing with zero pressure…I wouldn’t stand on the tracks .

You need to go back a few more years beyond 2018 and pull up those second round and third round exits by SJA … DI powerhouses always wanted SJA on their side of the bracket …. out early and out often.
