Message: [QUOTE="SnazzyLunch, post: 5765247, member: 9837"] Rough outing. I don't think its as doom and gloom as some are making it out to be. 11-4 with this schedule is a very respectable outcome. Who knows, maybe we'll get bonked again on Friday. Some thoughts in no particular order: 1. Lack of help on offense. Our younger guys have almost a year under there belt now, it is do or die time. If you want to win in May you need unknown commodities to step up. Unfortunately we're not trending in the right direction here. McIntee is a bit of a stormtrooper it seems with his shot thus far. After that laser goal against Maryland I was excited, maybe a bit less so now. It seems like Hahn is getting some more responsibility similar to how we used to Sam English or Jake Stevens. I don't know if this is hurting him offensively or not. Kellogg moves like a tank and not in a good way, where is the strength and conditioning. We hear a lot about his shot but in an ACC game you're going to need to create some sort of separation. 2. Uncle Leo. I'm fairly certain he sat out some time in fall ball or maybe it was the spring scrimmages with an injury. I wonder if he's not 100%. He has looked very slow at times this season. Perhaps he is a bit of a known entity at this point. It just feels like whoever is guarding him just completely disrespects his right hand drives him left, he rolls back with one hand on his stick and the play dies there. 3. Lack of dodging. This obviously and quite glaringly has been an issue with this Senior group since Day 1. It is jarring to watch our SSDMs routinely get run by and then on the other side of the field ever SSDM looks like Aidan McGuire. 4. Our turnovers are so untimely. Its one thing to lose a risky pass to an open guy on the crease or get stripped forcing a dodge at the end of a shot clock. These consistent killing failed clears, offsides, or whatever else just torpedo our momentum. Defense must want to rip their hair out, thought they're not guiltless today. 5. Mullen is odd this year. Teams have more film on him sure, but he just seems to overrun so many ground balls. Wing play is general has been pretty bad. Lack of a second FOGO certainly hurts as well. Angelo has shown moments, but we'll see I suppose. [/QUOTE]
