LOL! Calling me out huh?...

Ok...so we JUST started playing spring (that crazy quarter system we are on!)
Played St. Mary's last Friday night....Stanford won 5-0.
St. Mary's started a little slow. It was 3-0 at half, but they played a very spirited, much better 2nd half.

Stanford vs University of San Fran tomorrow night.

Fleming plays Mid and I didn't see her on the field Sunday. If she was out there they pulled her quick. Thankfully didn't hear any F bombs since I had two 13 year old's with me. First time ever seeing Pepperdine. Do they usually play behind the ball like that with all their players then kick long on counters? It was effective vs UCLA. The Pep forwards look fast. I did hear the coach tell his defenders to play their keeper a bit more when their back was to the play, always like hearing that. Don't have a kid involved at this time but must say Pepperdine looked better than UCLA, but that UCLA looked about as bad as I've ever seen.

In hind sight, looks like I mistook #10 for Flemming, so my mistake. As for Pepperdine’s style of play, it varies depending on the opponent. If a team is going to play a high defensive line like UCLA did, then they’ll play more direct. When the keeper thinks she’s a field player, game on. The Waves have scored a few goals this spring on direct counterattacks and catching the keeper off her line.

As for the F bombs and shouting, the wife reported one episode while filming down in the Bruin defensive end after the Waves scored a goal but UCLA doesn’t care about spring games so no big deal.
 
2 players coming back from injury this week and three more players getting some much needed time off to heal some nagging injuries. One more back in a month. My player graduates on the 13th of June. Really looking forward to this season but not in a rush to see it get started. Everyone will be back by the end of July and just watch out. There isn’t going to be a better starting eleven in college.

Maybe we can beat Stanford this year. I like our chances better than any prior year. I have been personally guaranteed by several players that they will have their fitness together by fall and they are purchasing a whole new can of whoop a$$.

GO BRUINS!!
