Good points rudad02, I was just recommending Tierny in the back based on her success in the position last year, she started and played several games there last year and did well, perhaps she would adjust accordingly, but you're correct, perhaps utilize her speed in the mid field, only concern would be her ability to keep possession and her game knowledge, distribution, etc. At least in back she can utilize her athleticism and speed to break up service, run down balls and compete 1 v 1, I only recommended Holland in the mid for the reason you stated, she has impressed, composure, maturity, ability to keep possession, perhaps she could set up some additional chances especially with the forwards we recommended. I personally feel there are better options up top, put LaPlant up top until she has to go out, like you said, there are other options in the mid, we sacrifice some technical ability and general soccer knowledge with Adora in the mid field. Bottom line is RU will continue to defend and prevent goals, but they need to score and score early and then they can play their typical style for the remainder if the game, holding on for 90 minutes every game is an gamble, one mistake and your down chasing a goal and losing 3 points! If RU wins tomorrow they are a sure in for the regular season Big 10 title, its a big game!!!!!! I hope, the correct adjustments are made and RU rises to the challenge!
