Fordham ended up losing to UNC 2-1 in the quarterfinals. Final 4 is UNC vs Indiana and Stanford vs Akron.

Just posting this here as it relates to Fran O'Leary. If you've never heard Fran speak, it's worth the effort. He's from Dublin, has that Irish wit and a lot of Irish expressions. I think he came to the states in 1985.

At the sports luncheon yesterday he talked about his background and a lot of soccer stuff and how he didn't understand American football when he got here. Here are 2 of his best quips:
I was watching an NFL game and the team had 4th down and 4 inches. They did a QB sneak, made the 4 inches and everyone went wild. I thought to myself, what kind of game is this when you get this excited about advancing 4 inches.
He commented that those at the luncheon were blessed to be eating at the #1 campus dining in the country. One of the entrees had a bunch of broccoli and George hates broccoli. He said, even the #1 dining can't make broccoli taste good. Jesus couldn't even make broccoli taste good.
