Were they B1G officials or ACC?15-16 / OT
GOAL by NU Lauren Gilbert (FPGOAL)
Friggin Big Ten refs
My sentiment exactly.Friggin Big Ten refs
It wasn’t a good call as some other calls but there were a few reasons why we lost.What was the reason NW was awarded that FPS? Looked like good D & out of nowhere, the refs award a FPS. Everyone on the field, for both teams, seemed stunned & confused.
People will say "well, we are 4 wins 1 loss right?" Wrong. They have not played well given their talent. And, there is reason to question Treanor's judgment.Refs were absolutely awful all game, but we cant blame them fully for this loss. A lapse in focus caused another 4th Q collapse for the second game in a row. All of the yellow cards and Chevarie getting fouled out of the game did them no favours either. This defense cannot afford for one of our best defenders to not play, especially in a rivalry match against a top 10 team. The lack of discipline and sloppiness continues into the KT era...
Another thing-- Hower deserves to be the starting goalie. That's obvious for anyone with eyes that can see. KT says she likes throwing opponents off with two different looks from goalie's, but that would probably only work if we had two really good goalie's--newsflash, we don't. Sweitzer is quite possibly the worst Syracuse goalie I have seen in quite some time. All an opponent has to do is shoot the ball and 9/10 if the shots on cage, it's going in. She has no read whatsoever. The goalie battle needs to end TODAY.
Sierra goes out with an injury (I hope its nothing serious)-- but is there a reason we didn't see Adamson nearly as much as she deserves? Why are we throwing Jimerson out there when we are only up 3-4 goals as if we are up 10+? Decisions like these are not only head scratching, but frustrating to watch. If Sierra is injured and cannot play, we need to be seeing more of Adamson and/or another '21 recruit step up. What are we saving them for?
I agree, stick with Hower for the whole game. Maybe even give Paulson a opportunity in cage. The Sweitzer sisters have not impressed so far. I too would like to see more of Adamson and Parower.Refs were absolutely awful all game, but we cant blame them fully for this loss.

Okay, so I'm not crazy, and the only one thinking like this lol! Like, correct me if I'm wrong but, shouldn't we be throwing out the best lineup to not only win the game, but win it in the best fashion as possible? Haha. Like why is she throwing Natalie Smith and Jimerson out there on O when we have some ballers in the '21 class collecting dust on the bench? I even think Maddie Baxter has overstayed her welcome on the offensive end. IMO, She should be used as a women's version of a SSDM-- on the defensive end and in clearing situations, thats it. The Sweitzer twins are another story. Hower needs to be the starting goalie over Delaney, and Savannah had two nice goals today but I haven't been a fan of her either.People will say "well, we are 4 wins 1 loss right?" Wrong.

Really not sure why keeps playing two goalies.Difference in the game so far is goalie play
Have been thinking this exact thing every game. It feels like KT's is being that one person in a group project who agrees and goes along with wrong info, just because she doesn't want to step on any toes. At least, thats what it looks like from the outside looking in. She needs to toughen up and start making the correct decisions to help this team succeed on the field.KT will become a great head coach. There is an adjustment from being the Assistant to the HC. Not going to be friends with every player. When your winning it’s easy. May start seeing some changes after the L.
