I felt the “poor play” on Defense were primarily from the Defensemen. Not the Goalie. They weren’t sliding to cover the crease, and gave too many wide open shots. Attackmen shouldn’t be able to scoop up the ball at the F/O and run a straight line to the goal without seeing much in the way of resistance.
That said, I was a lot more impressed with Marquette’s team than I thought I would be. It’s not a common event to see 3 goals scored inside 60-sec, and we saw that with MU in the final 2-min of the game.
Up next: Vermont. I’m expecting this one to be even more challenging than Marquette, but nowhere near as difficult as Denver.
GO UTES!!!
