Captain's Log with Brock Matheson - December 9th, 2010

Hey Fans, Hope everyone is having a good week so far and dealing with the cold weather. We've been busy gearing up for our home games against AIC and Army this weekend.

Looking back at last weekend, there are some positives and negatives to take away from it. Obviously we're all dissappointed about the game against Yale and how it turned out. We weren't able to capitalize on our chances and they exposed us in some areas and played a very strong game. It was a learning experience for us, and we're using it as incentive to get better. When we face them again in our barn, we'll be a better team and be able to exact some revenge.

The Brown game was a different story. It was the first time all year that we didn't score the first goal. Despite facing a two goal deficit, we were able to come back and win. We were happy with the fact that we stayed positive and kept battling despite the deficit. Brown was a very key win for us and was important for us to get some points and move up in the standings.

We know we're in for some tough games this weekend. Last year both AIC and Army gave us some tough games. AIC is a very underrated team and had a big win against RIT last weekend so we know they're going to be hungry and going to try and knock us off. Army is one of the hardest working teams in the nation. They simply try to outwork you every single shift and if you're not ready to work, then you'll have a very a tough time beating them. The main goal for us this weekend is to put in a full 60 minutes both nights and to outwork our opponents.

Thanks for reading and thanks for all your support!
