We felt as though we were the better team, and we let an opportunity slip by. We talked about it today that our next game against Roaring Fork is the most important game of the season. If we can push through Roaring Fork, then we're set to see if we can knock off one of the top-two teams in our league.

In the middle of the field, Kelsey improved her game remarkably in the second half.Bob Bandoni
Right now, we're doing what we always do, for the most part. Our focus has been a little longer on just individual development, trying to develop technical skills with individual players, so that they are more comfortable with the ball. So, our approach with tactics is quite delayed. Part of the learning that maybe in the past couple of years has come during training will probably not come until we get into the first couple of games.

The pace was such in the first half that we assumed we were going to struggle in the second half. We tried to take care of that through substitutions, but it's hard to do in soccer because then you begin compromising the rhythm of the game. We could see that. We could see that our pace and our work rate in the first half was so high. We were not only frustrating the opponents, I thought we were also being very stubborn in the middle of the field.

Already, it's clear to me that leadership from the senior class is effective. It's not necessarily coming from authority that sometimes is assumed by playing prowess. It's really coming by a moral authority, one that kind of transcends what happens in the field. They're established kids, very comfortable with themselves and very genuine and enthusiastic on the field, but genuine in their responses to the younger players.

The difference between today and Tuesday was how we threatened inside the box. We had a lot of opportunities. And (the goals) will come.
