We've got three games left, hopefully, and we set the tone. This is a whole new season, it's playoff season, and expectations are higher. If we want to make a statement, we need to do it now.
The idea is to experiment with it in games where we're not being scouted by other playoff teams. We want to see what's going to work, because we've been using the same scheme all season. We put this one in during practice, and we want to see if it's viable for the playoffs.
I fully expected them to rusty. We haven't played a game in 11 days. But there weren't too many cobwebs. The girls were just ready to play. They are such a competitive group.
They played their best game on Friday, and hopefully (today) will be better. It could be a one or two goal ballgame, with us up or down . . . we just need to make those 6-on-5's and we'll do well.
