balls bring definitely game goal goes good gotta great ground job proud
She did a great job today. We're definitely very proud of what she was able to do in the goal cage. She had some good ground balls and saves, but I think you gotta bring it for each game and we'll see how it goes from there.
came couple defense definitely great pulled rocky start trying worked
I think it was a great start to the season. We definitely came out rocky at first but pulled it together. We've been trying a couple of things on defense that are different from what we usually do and they worked out for us.
definitely degree good playing practicing season south starts teams
I think there's definitely something to be said for momentum. Traditionally our starts to the season have been very tough, but it's hard, especially when you're going down south and playing teams that have been practicing in 60 degree weather. It's definitely a challenge, but I think it's a good challenge.
almost challenge compete definitely good hard help hope hurt past ready schedule strength strong stronger teams whereas wish
I think that we definitely try to get those strong teams on the schedule. It's a hard concept. I think sometimes your strength of schedule can help you or hurt you. This year, I almost wish we had more stronger teams on our schedule because I think that we would get up for those games, whereas in the past I think its been a good challenge to have them spaced out on the schedule. So I hope the team is up for it and ready to compete on Sunday.
against came definitely fun good played recognized strong team
I think they definitely came out really strong against Binghamton. I don't know if they recognized how good they actually are, but they definitely had fun and played well as a team today.
coming deal definitely east eastern girls good hawaii hopkins number opponents oregon teams wanna
Oregon does a lot of traveling, so they make a big deal about coming back east and they also have a number of eastern teams come out and play them. They actually had Hopkins come out and play them in Hawaii and all the girls were like, 'We wanna go to Hawaii.' But they definitely still get a lot of good opponents out there, so it's very similar.
applying came definitely feeds great half open pressure second shows sit teams tendency
The great thing about that is that she did most of it in the first half and didn't play that much in the second half. So it really shows that we came out strong. Sometimes teams definitely have a tendency to kind of sit back and try and feed, but sometimes those feeds will open up if you keep applying pressure and we definitely did that today.
attack ball capable days expecting few last practice putting worked year
I've been expecting it all year -- I think we could've scored more goals. I think we have an attack that is really capable of putting the ball in the back of the net, and I think they've kind of been shying away from doing it a little bit. Something that we've really worked on practice the last few days is just scoring.
couple good job key nice people saving saw shots taking
I think she's a very good goalie. I think she did a very nice job of saving a couple of key shots. She just saw a lot of shots and we had a lot of people taking shots.
against game george great hard lindsay manages might rest somebody takes team willing
I think Lindsay always manages to have a great game against George Mason, but I think when you have somebody that's willing to go hard it kind of takes away any apprehensions that the rest of the team might have so we can go after them hard.
behind bit great hard last mary shape strengths stuck threat top tried worked year
We've really tried to play to our strengths a little bit more. Last year Mary really stuck behind the crease a lot and was a great feeder. I think now Mary has really worked hard to get in better shape and to get faster, and so I think she's a threat from up top as well.
attacking caused eight five goals great lewis lindsay people players point time
We also had players like Lindsay Lewis who scored five goals and had five caused turnovers, and Danica Strutt. We had eight people with a point in the attacking end. That's really what we look for, and we had a great time of it today.
balls couple expected game good great score selection settled shot slow threw
No, I wasn't worried. It's our first game so I really wasn't surprised. I think I kind of expected us to get a slow start. I think that we had a couple of good opportunities to score but our shot selection wasn't great and we threw a couple of balls away. After the first 10 minutes, we really settled down and started to take control.
came college dual gotten school
It's gotten really rare. I think when I was in college we had a lot of dual sport athletes, but I think they really came to school to do that.
