       A few more thoughts on the UA game....
       SB ran a ferocious ride, especially early in the game.  When UA
       would clear, they would get 2 or 3 attackmen to force them to
       the sideline and a failed clear.  That put a lot of pressure on
       UA's defense.
       I watched the replay and i counted at least 5 instances of guys
       hanging their sticks and getting the ball checked out.
       Unacceptable at this level.  I mean, even at the JV level, if
       you beat someone, you cant forget 1.5 seconds later that they
       are behind you.  ESPECIALLY if you carry a pole.
       The subtle but important takeaway from the UA game is that Nagle
       has this team running a true hybrid tempo- its transition when
       the #s are right; its slowdown when possession is necessary.  It
       not only works, but it is flexible to any opponent's game plan.
       The transfers on this team- can enough be said?  Brady, Tundo,
       Andreassi, Moeller, Watson, Bonanno even Keneally.  Technically,
       Campbell is a transfer too.
       Players that were in the 2010 QF: Campbell, Belton, Adams,
       Hawkins, LeVerne, Miceli, Laforet, Gibson, Feeney.  Im sure that
       experience helps for the upcoming tournament.  What a story that
       would be if the Seawolf staff at Lehigh ends up meeting the
       Seawolves in the QF!!!
       At halftime, some of the UA players ran up the steps into the
       stadium and then behind a tree in the NW corner, presumably to
       take a leak.  What was that all about???
