Now the NCAA site no longer says "Cary, NC", but curiously, the official dates have suddenly changed to Friday-Saturday. They're still trying to lock down a venue, but it would seem to me BYU being a legitimate contender for getting there makes them play it safe and deal with that and change the dates before it becomes an issue later. They can always blame having to make a last minute change for having the games played back to back.

By the way, this is a nice article from about the best site out there for covering college soccer that mentions BYU

All three forwards can score, making them versatile. The left back concerns me a bit, and that Nebraska game is a headscratcher, but it is a fun team to watch right now.
