Only one game today, as Cleveland St. takes on Mercer in a neutral site match-up at 3:00 PM (ET) this afternoon. I could not find a link for a stream for the game, but you can find the Live Stats for today’s contest here. Mercer’s star attackman Sean Goldsmith has been sensation this year.

What’s Up, New PhilaJersey?

PhillyMag.com ranked Wawa sandwiches and while I don’t agree with their picks, I respect the effort.
