Florida Atlantic Women's Soccer hosts Sun Belt Conference Championship, but won't compete



Starting today, November 4, through Sunday, November 8, Florida Atlantic University will be hosting the 2009 Sun Belt Conference Championship for Women's Soccer.

Every year, the tournament is held at a different university in order to be fair. It is a huge advantage for the home university because traveling takes a lot out of the performance of athletes.

That is... when the home university is actually in the tournament.

For the first time ever, Florida Atlantic University women's soccer team could not pull through with enough wins this season to receive a spot at the Sun Belt Conference Championship. It is also the first time the tournament has been held at FAU.

So as Florida Atlantic University sets up all the banners, decorates the soccer fields, and host eight women's soccer teams for the Sun Belt Conference Championship, the FAU women's team has to just sit back and watch all the action.

If it isn't rubbed in their face enough, the FAU women's soccer head coach is making the women attend the final championship game on Sunday.

I wonder if some of them will be ball chasers too! Ouch!
