The men’s soccer season, much like the field they play on, has fallen apart.

But while the surface at SF State’s Cox Stadium looks beyond repair — at least for now — the Gators can still salvage what’s left of their year.

This weekend the Gators (7-7-2, 4-5-1 California Collegiate Athletic Association) took just one point from two must-win games, tying Cal Poly Pomona 0-0 under bizarre conditions Friday, before losing to second-to-last CSU San Bernardino 3-1 Sunday.

“We’re struggling right now,” Gator coach Joe Hunter said with a sigh. “We’ve got to find a way to get something. Right now, we’ve just got to make sure the players stay focused.”

The disastrous run of form — two points from four games — has dropped the Gators to sixth overall in the CCAA standings, and four points back from a playoff berth with just four conference games left.

To their credit, they played Friday’s game under near-Biblical weather conditions.

“I’ve never seen a game like this, in the pouring, pouring rain where you could barely string a pass together,” Gator assistant coach Kelley Coffey said Friday. “I’ve never been a part of something like this.”

The rain storm submerged most the field in water, and what grass remained became a syrup-like sludge, causing the ball to stick and bounce awkwardly. Players struggled to stay on their feet, making the game more a slapstick comedy routine than a competitive match.

Playing conditions aside, the Gators’ performances this weekend sum up their late-season woes as fitness, discipline and commitment remain questionable.

The sophomoric partnership of Dylan Glass and Wes Whitt that lit up the Gator attack early this year is now defunct because of injuries.

Leading scorer Glass pulled a hamstring, and played only a half hour this weekend.

Worse still, Whitt is benched for the rest of the season with a hernia.

“They are the spark plug of the team ... they drive the game,” Hunter said.

“It’s disappointing, but I knew we were going to get a rough patch when we got into these injury situations because we didn’t have a lot of depth to begin with.”

The Gators also had a player ejected in each game. On Friday, sophomore Luke Terry saw red after an all-cleat challenge.

But Coffey admitted the slippery mud-covered surface made for some wild, unpredictable tackling, which — when combined with the gravity of a conference game — culminated into a ill-tempered mud-wrestling scrum at the end of the game.

“It was emotional at the end because it was such a big game,” Coffey said.

“There were some fouls that maybe wouldn’t have been otherwise because of the wetness, and that kind of escalated. In a tight game like this, at 0-0 in the final minute, it’s going to get touchy.”

But the poor surface at Cox Stadium frustrated senior Benno Nagel, who is playing his final season as a Gator and has never made the playoffs.

“We needed to win this, as [Cal Poly Pomona] is four points ahead of us, and now we have to settle for a tie because of the quality of the field,” he said.

“It’s just ridiculous. [The problem is] the type of grass they have. It’s seasonal grass and during soccer season it’s just no good.”

The outgoing seniors hoped to play their last home game Sunday against CSU San Bernardino at Cox Stadium, but the field’s disarray meant moving the fixture to Skyline College in San Bruno.

The Gators took the lead through Casey Poston’s header, but quickly lost control of the game and conceded three unanswered goals.

“These are all young guys and they want it now,” Hunter said. “They’re pissed off, they’re disgruntled. But now we have to turn it around and try and find our form.”

That return to form, Hunter and Coffey said, will require commitment from both outgoing seniors wanting to finish with a winning record, and younger players fighting for a place in next year’s team.

“I mean, are we going to keep a guy who’s thrown his arms up?” Hunter said.

“We want guys who are going to fight. We told them, ‘All eyes are watching you. Don’t start getting crazy off the field and throwing in the towel now, because we’re not done.’”
