Hobart 2023
Re: Hobart 2023
Friars are also shooting well. Hobart is taking a lot of low-angle shots.

Re: Hobart 2023
How many kids are out (aside from Shaifer who’s all season)? Herlihy, Bach, Horton, Shea. Anyone else? Story of the last number of years.

Re: Hobart 2023
Yes, but that was the scouting report all along. We knew we had to win the faceoffs, hold possession, and take good shots. Instead we seem to be playing playground ball, with behind the back shots, low angle shots, and some individual heroics. At least Wilson has stepped up.
FFG, regarding injuries, didn't I hear that Bach is in there? If he's injured we're really down.

Didn’t see Bach but you may be right he definitely wasn’t out there early.
9/29 shooting, 32-33% on cage so far, but two sweet BTB attempts!

Let's see what adjustments they make at halftime.

Re: Hobart 2023
Wilson suddenly turned it on after tough start but Prov was moving ball well and lot of easy assisted looks

Re: Hobart 2023
The number of assists is part of the story today.
Re: Hobart 2023
Great second half by the Statesmen!

Re: Hobart 2023
Yes. Gave up one inside 2 min at 13-10 but otherwise only 3 from 11:30 or so left in Q2 to that last goal, something like a 40 min stretch.
Good cold start for Wilson. Saved 2 of first 7 on cage in Q1 then 9/15 after.
And that goal by Considine should be on the various lax bro play of them week lists

Re: Hobart 2023
BTW sure seemed like that one ball trickled over the white line they called no goal on.

Re: Hobart 2023
A gritty, ugly win. It's good to see the team win without some key players. Datellas and Shea playing wounded showed real heart. Schofield starting to get more comfortable at the dot. Wilson looked every bit a freshman starting his first game in the 1st half. He was better in Q3 & 4. I'm not sure he is anywhere near ready to face Cuse next Saturday. Nor is our defense using it's current systems. Providence showed good ball movement in the 1st half. Bart hasn't faired well with any team that does that this season. Speaking of ball movement, only 3 of Bart's 13 goals were assisted. That won't fly against the Orangemen. I'll give Datellas a pass since he was obviously injured, Both Simas and Greene really need to step up on their accuracy if they're going to be on the 1st line on O. Delano is playing the way we has hoped. Considine is living up to his "most improved" status. Booker even called him "player of the game". The rope unit made some nice plays today and helped hold the Friars to 50% clearing.
This coming Saturday is a whole different story. They move the ball faster than anyone the team has face save Cornell. Lot's
of close quarters short passes. Spallina has a very good no look shot as he dodges from X above GLE. Hopefully we get everyone healthy for the game and have Holtby in goal. He has experience we need imho.

Re: Hobart 2023
Syracuse is actually a very beatable team. As you mentioned, their ball movement is great. They’re VERY Canadian, even the guys on offense who aren’t Canadian play like they are. I always felt Long Island guys played like Canadian players. Spallina is good, BUT he can really slow them down too. He wants to get his, so if Hobart can frustrate him early, then he’ll shoot low angle and low percentage shots and hurt their offense. Christiansen is actually matched up well with him… a left handed defender who thrives against physical dodgers. Cuse moves the ball well without question, but they don’t necessarily dazzle you with their dodging. We need to rotate well on Saturday and not be pulled apart by their ball movement. Easier said than done I suppose, but that’s the key.
I’m with you on Holtby, the issue is that I think his confidence is probably quite low. He hasn’t played in seven games now, tough to just step in against a good team like Cuse. I actually think Hobart matches up well with this team in all honesty. Cuse is extremely talented, but they’re very young. Hopefully we can stay with them early and frustrate them. Similar to how a 15 seed or a 16 seed plays a 2 or 1 seed in the March Madness tournament. We are all witnessing how, with the right mental approach, the underdog can pull the upset at any time. Go Statesmen.

And we need to have a lot less one on one offense. Delano, Grooms etc won’t beat their man as easy as they did vs Prov.

Re: Hobart 2023
BTW, Hockey team scored three even strength goals in 35 seconds in Q2 to blow open their playoff game w Curry in the quarters. Has to be some type of college playoff record.

Re: Hobart 2023
And w/ Utica getting upset in OT, the Skatesmen have a real shot at winning the NC. Exciting times. Now just have to hope we show up and don't get blown out by Cuse. Just want to see a complete, steady game for a change.
Dave Gage made a solid point that this group has managed to win 3 road games in the last couple of weeks. Definitively some silver linings in what's been a frustrating up and down start to the season.

Loved the Bart fans there I could plainly hear. Helped offset the slobbering over Benson by the play by play guys and refs.

Hmmm....beat everyone on your schedule but you are not a good team.
Are we living in an alternate universe?
Congrats to the "not a good team" Big Green on your 4-0 start.
