Frogs Down Xavier 3-0!

We had another good performance last night in front of another packed house at Garvey-Rosenthal Stadium. We did a good job of getting out of the gates quick and really bringing an aggressive attacking mentality. Caroline Starns once again had a real solid game in setting the tone, while Lizzy Karoly and Jordan Calhoun were both dangerous all night. Xavier was strong and physical so it was a nice test.

I thought the timing and creativity of our runs were much better from the first game, as the midfield played much crisper balls into the final 3rd. The entire back line did a great job of organizing and keeping us connected-Cheryl Martin, Katie Taylor and Nikki Wilbur (both as a back and mid) communicated well and set a good tone aggressively. Freshman Lindsay Holmes improved tremendously on her positioning while Alex Meshalske was much more dangerous this game and is starting to show her creativity.

Overall, I was extremely impressed with how task oriented the team was in this game and their focus to finish the game off. They really managed the rhythm of play very well! Next one up is Ole Miss tomorrow.
