No. 8 Rutgers Field Hockey Hosted “Battle on the Banks” Tournament / Friday & Sunday
- Thread starter Tango Two
- Start date
They finished 29Th in the RPI…we finished #1…game was at home. Not a good start IMHO.
…and since when did you become Mr Positive lol!!
Sure it would be nice to have that .500 or winning record in football … but RU had a great year in multiple sports including 2 B1G titles, 2 final fours, and an Elite 8.
Duke outplayed us in regulation. We had the better of the play in the OT's. Poor execution & failure to convert on corners cost us. This is not last yrs team. As posted, they may improve as they play together more.
What you HOPE is they take this and use it to, well, do BETTER moving forward (simply put).
Yeah. Need to hope the team gels as the season goes on. Howard played well enough to steal this one, but we couldn't finish the job in OT.
Embarrassing performance. Team getting punked out there. Pretty much graduated everyone and didn't try to reload in the portal.
Team still smelling themselves after last season. They need to hold a team meeting and put last season to bed. I'm thinking they haven't learned how to handle success like women's soccer or men's lax has.
This team isn’t making the NCAA’s after today without a minor miracle. WTF happened??!!
Team graduated everyone and didn't replace them in the portal. After last season the team should've grabbed 2-3 studs in the portal to reload. If they don't go out and maul LaSalle into oblivion next week, this team is toast before the season even begins.
According to the team preview two out of the three leading scorers from last season are playing this year.
Then something is clearly wrong because the team didn't go from B1G Champs to a pushover in one offseason.
They graduated a ton of core players. This is a young team. Don't know about its skill level or speed either.
This team was completely embarrassed at home to start the season. Let’s not make excuses. Coach should NOT have scheduled such difficult competition to open up if this were the case.
