Weekend Preview

This weekend sees us travel north to Smithfield, RI for a game against Bryant on Sunday at 11am.  The game is the start of a 4 game home stretch for Bryant and the end of a 5 game away stretch for us.  Bryant have only played 3 regular season games so far and despite not picking up a win they will be buoyed by their home support and a 4-4 tie against fellow A10 conference team URI in their last outing.  Last season saw us win 3-2 in the last minute so that will be another incentive for them to turn the tables this time out.

For us its back on the bus for a long trip which we should be used to now being our 5th game on the road.  We have continued to get some great support from parents and friends on the road and we hope to see them again this weekend.  We will look to build on the way we played last time out but improving the quality of service in the final third to make any possession we have count.  We will also be looking to break a trend of WLWLWLW? (including our 2 preseason games).

The weather was perfect for today's practice and the players seemed to enjoy the session after we finished with some shooting and finishing.  No changes to the injury report so the travel roster is set and we look forward to leaving tomorrow and practicing tomorrow night at Bryant.

Magic Moment of the Day
Alexandersson "Ice Man" attempted bicycle kick.  Thankfully he didn't get injured in the process.
