“Defensively and blocking-wise, we are just very disciplined. We know what the other team is going to run, so we’re making them uncomfortable and having to do things they’re not used to.”
In the open race, for runners outside the team’s top ten, the Cornell team finished first with 32 points: an extraordinary score. All five scoring runners finished in the top eleven overall.
“I think we didn’t get off to a good start as we failed to create clear shooting opportunities in the first part of the half,” Hornibrook said. “The young players on the team worked well together to pose an offensive threat in the second half. However, the whole team needs to do better to put pressure on the opponent and create goal scoring opportunities.”
“The thing that’s really important is that we keep and optimistic view of what can happen in every game and that we work together and play together,” head coach Stephen Simpson said. “That’s what we have to do and if we do those things, we give ourselves a chance in every game we play.”
“It was a great tournament for the women to compete in,” head coach Mike Stevens said. “There was a lot of great competition and a chance to see how they have been improving since we got started on Sept. 7 and the results show how hard the team is working.”
