experience heard knew tapes
Because of my experience being in the inspections and being in the military, I knew the significance of these tapes when I heard them.
brings cerebral game offensive
He brings the offensive game of lacrosse to a more cerebral level.
forward looking
This is a very important game, and it is something that we have been looking forward to.
bigger goal starts
It's one of those things where you go into a big game...and the goalie starts to look a little bigger and the goal a little smaller. You just don't have confidence.
becomes bounce challenge close quite tough
It's going to be quite a challenge to bounce back after a tough loss. It really becomes as close to a must-win as you can get.
game mental played tied took
It's frustrating, because I don't think we played our game in the first quarter. We were tied 1-1 at the end of the first quarter, but it took a lot of out of us, a lot of mental stuff.
goal shot
Any one shot on goal can be the difference. We need to concentrate on every opportunity.
effort kids week
So disappointing. Not because you lose, but because of the effort the kids put in all week long.
kids stepped time
The kids stepped up big time when they could have quit.
defense great playing talented
They're a very talented team, they play great defense and their goalie has been playing very well.
powerful score
They're much more powerful shooters. Hofstra was able to score where we didn't.
alex almost best certainly great kept
Alex is phenomenal, if not the best goalie the country, certainly one of them. He does it every day in practice, so it's almost commonplace to see him do these things. He was great today, he kept us in there when things got crazy.
easily guys lead respectful
I think the guys think of him in a very respectful way, as a guy who can very easily lead them. And they look at him as a friend.
finish guys scoring shots spread team unlike
I think they're the best-shooting team in the country. They spread their scoring out, and they have guys who can just finish their shots unlike a lot of teams.
