Pretty impressive shooting from Cuse v Duke today. 26 shots from Cuse, 23 on cage.
Adamson 1 shot, 1 goal. Smith 2 shots, 1 goal. Cockerille 2 shots, 2 goals. Ward 5
shots, 3 goals. ET 5 shots, 3 goals. Carney 7 shots, 5 goals. Pretty darn good shooting
in my book.
Draws ended up being 17-12 in favor of Duke, thought that might have been a whole
lot more lopsided than it turned out to be. Thought the young HC make a good/smart
move sending Maddy Baxter out to take the draws in the 2nd half. Tall, fast, good GB
girl muddied things up a bit for Jenner. Goodale came up with 5 DCs, Adamson and
Cockerille 2 each. Pretty big deal.

Re: Syracuse
Really impressed with Kayla 2.0 (year two). Has her players playing well in all phases. The (apparently) on the fly draw adjustment was impressive.
Still a long way to go with some big hills to climb, but the Orange look like the best team to me. Now we know why she put together that tough schedule.
Stay away from the injury bug!!!!

Re: Syracuse
I agree to an extent in terms of offensive talent and experience. But UNC's depth is insane. right now UNC's overall resume and wins are more impressive if they beat NW i think they will and should be the clear cut #1 team. Neither team may lose again until their late season showdown.njbill wrote: ↑Sat Mar 18, 2023 8:21 pm Really impressed with Kayla 2.0 (year two). Has her players playing well in all phases.

Re: Syracuse
I reserve the right to change my mind.
I am actually rooting for the teams in this order: NU (b/c of Scane), UNC, Syr, but I really like them all.

Re: Syracuse
Have been impressed as well. When you're at the games you can see her interacting with her players when they come off the field. Good play or bad play she's coaching them. Not surprisingly, she really seems to get along with her players...hugs, smiles, high fives. It's nice to see. Can't get past the thought of these girls watching her play in the World Tourney, they've got to have a lot of respect for her.

Re: Syracuse
Our Now Went elsewhere poster said that KT wouldn't be a good coach because she lacks presence of command. Just one example of many brilliant posts we got from him. Thank you internet gods for leading him down the

He still has his Twitter account and a few weeks ago criticized Unleashed for posting a defense tutorial with Lizzie Colson because Gabby Rosenzweig scored on her when MD played Duke in the 2021 tournament.

If you ask Kayla or any other coaches that run these positions at other schools and you both would learn you are wrong. Swing mids (O and D) are another term used by coaches.

Re: Syracuse
Syracuse Number 1? Is this largely due to Gait's recruits? It seems he recently turned things around on the men's side in recruiting in a big way.
Be in their flowing cups freshly rememb'red.
Re: Syracuse
I was on a self-imposed sabbatical - mostly a darkness retreat - reconnecting with my inner self, when the guy with many monikers decided to leave. But, I did see in the Penalty Box that he called himself a troll and apologized for being a troll for all these years. I lol'd considering the number of people that were sent to the Penalty Box for calling him what he always intended to be - a troll.jff97 wrote: ↑Mon Mar 20, 2023 3:09 pmYeah it's weird and depressing.

Re: Syracuse
Gait's influence on the way Syracuse plays (Treanor can't say enough good things about the influence he had on her) can still be seen on the field, and yes many of his recruits but let's not short the job KT has done to date. Remember these girls watched the exhibition their coach put on in the World Games....impressive to say the least.44WeWantMore wrote: ↑Mon Mar 20, 2023 5:05 pm Syracuse Number 1?

Re: Syracuse
She got the job at the end of the 2021 season, right? So her first recruits were the ones who committed on or after Sept. 1, 2021 which were kids then entering their junior year in HS, that is, HS class of 2023. So her first class of recruits won't get to campus until this coming fall and won't first play until next spring. Thus, 100% of the kids on the team now (excluding any transfers which I'm too lazy to look up) were recruited by Gait.

Re: Syracuse
How about we give them both credit. Yes a number of the recruits were Gary's, but you didn't see a mass exodus when he left and Kayla seems to have put her stamp on the Team.
