San Diego State has the nation's No. 1 recruiting class but has struggled away from the Sports Deck
When Ryan Hopkins took over as men’s soccer coach at San Diego State in 2020, he walked onto the narrow, bouncy, windswept home field ringed by a running track on top of a parking garage and saw an opportunity,It worked. The Aztecs are 11-7-1 at the Sports Deck in his three seasons.They haven’t been able to translate that success anywhere else, though, winning just one of 17 games away from the Sports Deck . That stark dichotomy will get tested Thursday, when the Aztecs host No.
Another dichotomy: His team is undefeated against three opponents ranked in the top 10 … and 2-4 against everyone else. It’s been a rough year in general for Division I soccer in San Diego. Entering Wednesday night’s game at UC Santa Barbara, UC San Diego is the only one of the six men’s or women’s programs with a winning record. The UCSD women are 1-7-3, the USD women 2-5-3 and the SDSU women 3-3-4. The USD men are 2-3-5.
And Wynalda, in town for a reunion of the 1987 team, gave a spirited address to the winless Aztecs before a Sept. 9 home date against UNLV. His message: “Rip their throats out.”Hopkins wrote Wynalda’s battle cry on the whiteboard two days later before facing then-No. 6 Denver, and Elias Katsaros scored twice in the final 30 minutes for a 2-1 win. A week later, goalkeeper Jacob Castro, a transfer from Washington, had a career-high eight saves to preserve a 0-0 tie at then-No. 2 Stanford.
