against caliber experiment fantastic finishing forward goals great jordan move played player quality team tonight
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.
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.
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.
goal happy today turned
I am so happy for Kendall. She scored her first goal for us today and it turned out to be the game-winner.
effort everybody except felt full good kept numbers opportunity organized played players san second team
I thought we had a full team effort today, everybody played except for two of our goalkeepers. San Jose was very organized and kept numbers back. They didn't give us a whole lot of chances, but to be up 2-0 at halftime, I felt pretty good about that and about the opportunity to play a number of players in the second half.
ball best build chances created dame definitely game good including key performance played possessed possession team thus year
I think this is the best game we've played thus far, including the Notre Dame win. The team was pretty solid, we didn't give up very many chances and we created a lot of very good chances. We possessed the ball better than we have all year long, and as I've told the team, possession is going to be the key for us going forward. Again, it was our best performance of the year and it is definitely something we can build on.
acts history passing prior rocks throwing understanding violent
It is my understanding that there is a history of a violent acts prior to this. It had something to do with throwing rocks off an overpass at passing cars.
ball best category chances created five game goal good kept moved numerous opponent outside percent possession quality rhythm scoring stanford terms year
Outside of the goal in the game, it was our best game of the year in terms of what we did with the ball. We kept possession and moved the ball well, and had good rhythm and flow. We created numerous quality scoring opportunities today. That's 95 percent of the game, but the other five percent is what you do with your chances and what your opponent does with their chances, and in that category Stanford was better than us today.
close credit effort played pressure team took total
Fullerton really played well and I have to give them a lot of credit. They were well-organized and put a lot of pressure on us. It took a total team effort on our part to close out the win.

He's been so very helpful to our group, involved in ongoing activities and monthly programs, setting up slides projectors or lugging around materials. He enjoys working behind the scenes, helping in any way he can.

To play matches against the caliber of some of the teams we played this weekend, you always enjoy that, and the fact that we raised money for a great cause made it ten times more fulfilling, so it really was a win-win situation. It also increased all of our awareness about breast cancer and we can all feel good about raising a significant amount of money for breast cancer research and awareness.
