Offensively, we limit ourselves. Defensively, even if the zone sometimes is the world's greatest weapon, it stands to reason that over time, it will gradually be less and less of a 'mystery' for the opposition. A few more teams play it these days, so there's a bit more exposure to it and prep for it.

I don't know how related this is, but I thought it was funny to see the pregame stats. In particular, the three point against stat. So often, that's touted by us as justification for the zone. Something the zone does well, even in the face of observation/the eyeball test, where we routinely see some nobody go off for career bests against us. So, we were defending the 3 at 29%. Seems pretty good, right? BC was also defending at 29%, and they were a team at 7-6 with losses to Hartford, Fairfield, and Harvard? So, what does that stat mean? And of course, we gave up an insane shooting day to another player...
