avoid complete defensive forced games
We are not going to outscore them. We need to keep it a 2-1 game, but avoid a complete defensive mindset. There are games where we have been forced into this, though.
content effort excellent overall remained
We all remained very content with our overall effort. It was an excellent first season, and I am very appreciative of the effort put in by all of the players.
across defense entire middle rink stretch work
We need to try not to stretch the defense across the entire rink. We have to work from the middle of the rink out.

The biggest disappointment was our slowness in the first period. We did not play with continuity, while Providence played sound defensively.

They beat us to rebounds on a few goals. Even so, we never quit.
coaches crazy draw drive hooks penalties strong
They were penalties I could live with. Sometimes you go in strong and draw penalties. The ones that drive coaches crazy are the hooks from behind.
anyone commitment motivate positive remain single
They have to motivate themselves. I will remain very positive about their commitment to the team. I am not going to single anyone out.

It's an evolving rivalry. There is enough tradition that it should get people excited. Based on the first game, it should be on its way to becoming another great rivalry.

We missed on a few offensive opportunities in the second as well as several power play opportunities. We could have come away with it, but we weren't quite as sound as they were.

Wright-Ward was the player of the game for them. She was one of the three stars, getting a few goals and an assist.

A to Z it was a wonderful effort by her. I don't think she had any chance on either goal.

Brown has a long standing tradition of excellence. They are a well-coached team and a national power. We are excited for another good test.
game thorough worst
This was probably our worst game of the year. We didn't play a thorough game and it showed.

We should be better prepared this time around. We've got 21 freshmen that have played two-thirds of a Division I hockey season. They're more accustomed with the pace of the game and the ebb and flow of the game.
