most princeton goals i think were scored by mids sweeping from up top and shooting from mid range, but nevertheless, our man to man defense was great. notably rock, randall, reh, ellis. im not sure but i think randall was on mcdonald and rock on ambler, i really dont know.
princeton looked the same as they did against brown- missing the cage often and by extreme distances. good ball movement, but no feet movement. one dodger, the other five stand still and watch. i cant believe this is the princeton team i used to watch rattle off national titles.
so who had a huge game? too many to list. macie had some great 4th quarter saves, and good clearing. randall was intense. rock sliding early and recovering. lindsay won key faceoffs late in the game. another ho-hum day for easty, scoring his usual hat trick plus. must be nice...
but the game ball should go to the defensive midfield- especially curry, reh, ellis, and contributions from judge and abdellatif. curry was everywhere causing problems for PU, ellis and reh made princeton mids dodge against the pole sometimes.
having guys converted from offense to d-mid pays off on transition- im talking about robison, ellis, and reh. and curry. my favorite player on the team. well, luca is up there too...
game plan for the tigers was clear- absolutely shut off schultz, and try to not let rooney work behind. they wanted to SB to operate above the goal line. this opened it up for hughes, corpo, and bitzer. bitzer was good with inverts today.
rooney for 3rd team AA? easty for HM? i think so! curry should be 1st team AE if he plays like this in conference play. maybe randall too. otherwise we spread the ball around too much for individual honors.\\\
