Practice on Tuesday included a session with lots of touches. The warm-up consisted of groups of four passing, dribbling, and then juggling. Once the team was loosened up they moved on to a back heel passing leading into a shot. "The Two Person Whirl" as it is known. Over time the team has gotten progressively better at this exercise but for starters, figuring out how to correctly place your feet often results in a couple players losing balance and everyone having a giggle, including the player that is no longer on their feet. After some quality repetitions the team worked on set pieces for 10 minutes before going to goal. The activities to goal included 1v1s, 2v2s, and 3v3s. Training would conclude with 10v10 in which both teams displayed a very quick speed of play. A strong session heading in tomorrow MIAA regular season finale.
Tomorrow the 3 Hornet Seniors will be honored in a short ceremony prior to kick-off. Paige Howell, Katie Manstrom, and Anja Burk have dedicated a tremendous amount of time and effort to the program. Hopefully you'll be able to honor them with your attendance at tomorrow's match. If not be sure to keep up on the game by following the Live Stats or listening to the Radio Broadcast. Kick-off is set for 4pm.
GO HORNETS!!!
