NCAA Championship within grasp

[WoadBlue]

And 4th pipe we have hit today.

The good thing about drilling the pipe early is that a slight adjustmnt leads to multiple goals.

 

[WoadBlue]

Again, our D looks just a half step off, and then watches the ball.

Colgate's Walsh takes advantage. 3-2 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

D just looked bad on that possession.

Tied at 3

 

[UNC71-00]

Flat footed again on D

 

[WoadBlue]

D looks terrible. Standing around. Reacting late.

4-3 Colgate

 

[UNC71-00]

We aren't good enough on face offs to try to pick the ball up 1 handed or to lose it after gaining possession.

Definitely looked rusty in that quarter. I am not a fan of the 2 week layoff after the ACC tourney.

 

[UNC71-00]

I really hope this game isn't interrupted by rain. We need to get in a groove and a long break In the action won't help.

 

[WoadBlue]

Goldstock ties it at 4

Neither am I.

 

[WoadBlue]

Goldstock ties UNC all time season scoring mark

5-4 Heels

 

[UNC71-00]

Good things happen when we win face offs.

 

[WoadBlue]

Pontrello scores again

6-4 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Good things happen when we win face offs.

Like that one - we win it, and Jimmy Biter sneaks in and scores.

7-4 Heels

 

[UNC71-00]

As I was saying

 

[UNC71-00]

Tutton forced that

 

[WoadBlue]

Another weak D stand by the Heels/ Colgate is patient and makes crips passes and eventually gets an open shot.

7-5 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Extra Man for Heels, and we waste it.

 

[WoadBlue]

Great stop by Burke leads to a fast break, and Sankey makes the goal.. Another assist by Bitter.

8-5 Heels

We get it back, and longstick Zach Powers scores.

9-5 Heels

 

[UNC71-00]

Textbook fast break results in an easy Sankey goal.

And Heels win another FO, score a quick goal. This team would be undefeated if Keenan was still our faceoff guy.

 

[WoadBlue]

Bitter to Sankey

10-5 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Walsh scores again

10-6 Heels

 

[UNC71-00]

We better not go to sleep here

 

[WoadBlue]

Pontrello picks up a ground ball and scores with 5 seconds left in the 2nd.

11-6 Heels at the half

 

[UNC71-00]

Nice 1 and a half quarters.

I hope we can come out strong and put this thing away early.

 

[WoadBlue]

Goldstock now the record holder: most goals by a Tar Heel in a season.

12-6 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Walsh comes right back for Colgate.

12-7 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Goldstock scores off a rebound.

13-7 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Again, UNC ball watching, which leads to easy pass for open Colgate shot.

13-8 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Patrick Keely scores. Another assist by Bitter. That is 4 on the game so far.

14-8 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

Sankey drills one.

15-8 Heels

 

[WoadBlue]

15-9 Colgate

 

[WoadBlue]

15-10 Colgate, and now with a Man Up

 

[UNC71-00]

Bad run there for Kilpatrick. Poor fundamentals responsible for 2 Colgate goals.

 

[WoadBlue]

Colgate scores with 2 seconds left in Man Up

15-11 Heels

Time to get back into smart play.

 

[UNC71-00]

Now Tutton with a bone headed play

 

[UNC71-00]

We need a really positive 4th quarter to put this one away and hopefully have something to build upon.

And a bad quarter and this one gets very nerve wracking.

 

[WoadBlue]

Colgate hgets anoher Man Up to start the 4th

 

[UNC71-00]

Colgate hgets anoher Man Up to start the 4th

I don't want to see Kilpatrick again this game.

 

[WoadBlue]

down to 15-12 Heels

This team has done this before: get a lead and seem to coast. It needs a killer mentality.

 

[WoadBlue]

Pontrello to Sankey

16-12 Heels
