 Welcome to the Paul Canabine show. I'm Joe Wombo, joined now with Paul Canabine, head coach of the Men's Lacrosse team. And coach, you guys, travel up to RIT, facing the number two team in the country. At one point, you were down 14 to 7, finished it out 16 to 13. What was the difference in those two points of the game? I think we just played pretty hard all game. I thought we did a really good job getting up and down. But they really made us capitalize on their mistakes. And then when they made a mistake, they did a good job making some plays and some big saves by their goalie, some tough ground balls. And that was kind of the difference. I thought we faced off pretty well. And I thought we competed really pretty well defensively. But every time we made a mistake, they made us capitalize. And that's why they're great. They're very good high IQ guys. They're always in the right spot. And they shoot the ball really well. But I like how we didn't give up. We kept fighting. And we had some opportunities. Get close there. We're battling back. Play here, play there. Could be a little bit different as we start coming back. But we've got to be a little smarter. And that's what I think is the biggest difference that we didn't play with are too smart there and give them some easy opportunities. But I think we'll be all right. We've got to shoot the ball better. Attack can't go three to 23, shooting the ball. But some great things. Kyle Donofrio played outstanding. I thought Kyle, I thought Don DeFazio played great. Dylan Harris played great. I thought our freshman face-off guy did a good job. And I thought Kyle Carrassian did a real good job playing. And JT Thielen and Brendan Watson are going to get a lot better. That's the first game in about two years, both of those kids. So they need to get the feel of it again. And I think it would be great. And getting everybody healthy on Monday with Lito Flanagan back in the lineup and getting a full week of our three senior mithies that missed about two weeks. A full week of practice is really going to help us. It was a tough loss. We understand it's tough traveling up to beautiful Rochester in the middle of a windstorm and all that fun stuff. But it is what it is. And we had to handle it. And we'll get better. You touched on it a little bit as the face-off circle, or X, as you'd call it. You being the face-off guy that you are, what were the good things that you saw? You guys finished dead even, 16 face-offs a few. Well, you got two guys in there. You're starting a freshman, and Justin Burnetti, who's the first time playing a freshman against a really good kid from RIT. And I thought he held his own. Nate is much better than a year ago. Nate Laquang, and he did a much better job. So we competed there. We got to work a little bit on our wings and beating in the right spot a little bit. But I thought we did a good job giving ourselves a chance. And as we move forward into the week to come, you guys are going to face Gettysburg at their place. They went into an overtime game with Salisbury. What are the things that you guys are going to be focusing on heading into this game? Yeah, playing Gettysburg is going to be a little bit different. They're a lot different than RIT, how they play. They're going to play a lot more methodical, a lot slower. RIT's a very big team. Gettysburg's not as big. They got some smaller guys, a little quicker guys. So that's a little more of a challenge for us. They play always play great defense down there. But we feel confident of what we're doing. We got to go there. We get a great go. But they're going to be a different team. They got a great goalie back. They got one of their good defensemen back. They got a couple guys on the attack that are back that can play. But we're going to have to go out and do our thing. I think that the way we played offensively was very disciplined. I thought we did a good job getting the shots we needed. And we'll get better. Hank always does a great job with them, getting them prepared. And we're looking forward to the challenge for sure. Well, Coach, we wish you the best of luck and safe travels up that way. And on improving the things that you're going to improve this week. Well, thank you very much. We'll get after it and we look forward to it. He's Paul Canabine. I'm Joe Wama. This has been the Paul Canabine Show.
