Well, damn. I guess if you're going to lose, that's not a bad loss.

 

[JohnGwaltney]

Exactly. A rematch of the championship would be tough anytime but both are still really good so just adds to it being a tough start.

 

[ohio tarheels]

Sounds like we could probably see Michigan again later in NCAA tourney!!!

 

[JohnGwaltney]

Yep. Definitely a possibility as both are very good again this season.

 

[JohnGwaltney]

 

[tarheel0910]

Not a great start. I guess at least these are OOC games.

 

[JohnGwaltney]

Technically, I don't think it is that bad considering #2 Michigan and #3 Iowa were the opponents. Never want to start out 0-2, though.

 

[ohio tarheels]

Rather start out bumpy with a couple L’s if it helps out later on!!! Plying one heck of a schedule with #2 and #3 on the opening weekend

Just not working out for us this year. Still time left to get it going.

Playing the kind of teams they will see in the NCAA might help though considered most of the games have only been 1 goal games!!! Will keep fingers crossed they turn it around

Saw their record last night and was shocked to say the least but they will get it figured out. Just hate to lose in any sport.

At some point this team has to start beating good teams if they want to accomplish anything. Starting to look like a lost season.

 

[JohnGwaltney]

Agreed. It is a bit shocking to see the struggles after so many strong seasons.
