UMass 0, Ohio State 0 at halftime

Live from the College Cup
Joe Meloni

CARY, N.C. - UMass and OSU entered the break tied, 0-0. But the score is the only stat not heavily in slanted in favor of the Buckeyes.

The Buckeyes forced far more chances than the Minutemen, and maintained possession for a significant portion of the half. In the 10th minute, Roger Espinoza crossed into the UMass penalty area in front of goalkeeper Zack SImmons. Doug Verhoff perfectly timed the bicycle kick and lined it on net, but it flew over the crossbar.

UMass's best chance came in the third minute. After stealing a pass, Mike DeSantis played the ball long to brother Mark. The sophomore dribbled around a defender and linded up a left-footed shot, but OSU back Eric Brunner blocked the shot.

Sophomore back Dan Lepone received a yellow card in the final minutes of the half for a hard tackle on an OSU midfielder as they both pursued a loose ball.

Hello. My wife and I bought our house about 6 months ago. It was a foreclosure and we were able to get a great deal on it. We also took advantage of the 8K tax credit so that definitely helped. We did an extensive remodeling job and now I want to refinance to cut the term to a 20 or 15 year loan. Does anyone know any good sites for mortgage information? Thanks!

Mike
