Halftime thoughts: A tale to two teams-in Orange
Offensively, when the guys are attacking aggressive, they pass quicker and sharper, creating more opportunities. When one guy runs around with the ball for too long, everyone slacks off.
We have no one in the middle on a constant basis. My perception is that when they have a guy moving in or through the middle, the offense is better.
Defensively, Madonna is on his game but cannot win it alone. Defense is not adjusting to Navy quick enough leaving a well disciplined team to take advantage of the mismatches they create.
Credit Navy for not backing down, keeping Madonna out of the transition game, aggressive defense and good goalie play.
Need to to win more at the X. A change in face offoff better wing play, perhaps. Play tighter D. Stay with the aggressive offense.
