approach chance coaching evaluate gives goals groups individual player players seeing spring trying
We try to take a very individual approach to coaching the team, so every player will have their own individual goals that they are trying to accomplish. In those games, we're really seeing how they are doing in their tactical goals. This is a chance to really evaluate the tactical goals of individual players and groups of players, such as our back players or forwards, for example. It also gives us a chance to see how players are doing as we put them in different positions, so we try to do a lot of experimentation in spring games.

against belt close early game good great guess ncaa playoff point puts schools stanford team tournament
This was a playoff atmosphere, and it's good to have this kind of game under your belt as you go into the tournament. Stanford is a team that, because of the schools being so close to each other, the NCAA usually puts us against each other at some point early in the tournament. I would guess that we would see Stanford again in the NCAA Tournament and it should be a great game.

Community support has been awesome ... it's worked both ways.
baseball bat close grade kids league major people tough
There's always been that in baseball. You have different people that see different things. Some people grade it tough and some people are very lean. That's why you see some kids hitting.600 and some hitting.300. Some people go by Major League Baseball that if it's close it's an error. Some people say if they put the bat on the ball it's a hit.
After having such a letdown at the end, this is huge.

I can't say enough about the play of Jordan Angeli . It was really just an experiment to move her to the forward position. She has done a fantastic job. Finishing two quality goals against the team of the caliber that we played tonight showed what a great player she is.

It seems like everybody's on break except for us; I couldn't find a game to schedule this week.
difficult golf guys putt ready seem sort week
It's kind of unfortunate the way it's set up, that so many guys do seem to putt out sort of the week of the golf tournament. It makes it difficult for guys like myself to just get there and be ready and prepared.
drama finishing great hole sure
It's a great finishing hole and I am sure there will be a lot of drama if it comes down to that.
arizona battle credit efficient experiment game goals good knew knows looked open players playing provide road season shape slow start state stretch team tough typical variety
It was a typical first game of the season, ... Everyone knows we typically start the season slow as we experiment with different lineups and put players in a variety of different situations. We started out the game that way for about the first 25 minutes. Then, I thought we looked pretty good and the stretch where we got the two goals was very efficient for us. We got a little out of shape just after the two goals. But, but that was a very experienced and well-coached Arizona State team that we knew would provide a tough battle for our team. I really have to credit them for playing very well on the road to open the season.
