game thorough worst
This was probably our worst game of the year. We didn't play a thorough game and it showed.
character game heart maine players
The players had the character, heart and resiliency to show that the game up in Maine was a fluke.
carry collect played seem tempo
We did not play very well tonight. We were a little tentative and Quinnipiac played with a lot of tempo and a lot of pace. We didn't really carry play tonight. A lot is gauged by how well we collect passes, and we didn't seem to collect pucks tonight.
chance effort either wonderful
A to Z it was a wonderful effort by her. I don't think she had any chance on either goal.
defensive game good hoping
We need to have a good defensive effort. I am hoping that we can keep it a real competitive game and play well defensively.
few missed offensive power quite second several sound
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.
accustomed division ebb flow freshmen game hockey pace played prepared time
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.

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.

Wright-Ward was the player of the game for them. She was one of the three stars, getting a few goals and an assist.
against change fantastic finish great job line
I was going to make a line change and then I see No. 9 streaking on a breakaway out of the box. But she had to finish it and she did a great job against a fantastic goalie.
certainly game odds schedule second
Certainly in the second game we were more prepared. I like our odds better here at Walter Brown, but that's the way the schedule falls.
goals good kids players puck shoot system whatever
But whatever your system is, you still have to have good players and we had some kids who would shoot the puck and would get goals around the net.
extra few huge impact played saves team
She played tremendous. She has a huge impact on our team. With a team like ours, sometimes we need a few extra saves and she did that for us tonight.
came hit hitting instead late open played post puck save unnoticed
She played great. There was one play that I think went a little unnoticed where, late in the game, she made a save where she just tipped a puck and it hit off the post instead of hitting an open net, and it was little things like that where she came up big for us tonight.
