 Welcome back to the Tracy Johnson show presented by Buffalo Wild Wings. I'm Sam Murray join now a Stevenson women's ice hockey head coach Tracy Johnson and coach coming off an exciting 4-3 victory over Manhattanville in the UCHC quarterfinals take us through that game Exciting game. It was a little back-and-forth, you know, we took the 2-0 lead and You know allowed them to come back Obviously what you want to try to do is protect that lead and play well defensively And fortunately, you know, they were able to come back tied up Then we went up and then they tied it and then we went up again and and we're able to to hang on so just All around just proud of the team proud of their effort proud of you know, hanging tough in that game and and what a great time for Maddie Ricci to drop penalty at the end and You know, we got it done and we're just really excited to be moving on to the next round Do you think sometimes playing in a game like that where you go ahead? They tie it you go ahead They tie it again is more you know better for the team going into a semi-final contest and just blowing a team out of the water Yes, I think it is it's good to experience. I don't even want to call it adversity really but to be able to You know stay on an even keel not not lose your cool Stay calm and collected throughout all of that through the ups and downs of the game is going to make us that much Stronger going into this weekend. We talked last week about special teams being a big factor Your power play finds it back the net penalty kill units were perfect talk about their performance on there We knew special teams were with that. We were going to live and die by them And we will moving forward as well, you know play officer a huge time where you need your special teams to step up and Just proud of them. We practiced it. They were ready. They were focused They were ready to capitalize and they did so and it ended up being a one-goal game So it was a huge difference maker for us and just proud of their effort on special teams as well I'm moving forward you face William Smith in the semi-finals a team You saw way early in the season back in November Lops out it lost in that first game of thing you battle back for a tie in the second game What do you have to do to get the win this weekend? It's I just think we're completely different team You know most teams are at the end of the year different team that they were at the beginning So William Smith is going to be different too You know, I'm just really proud of the way that we're playing and I think if we can just keep that momentum And really focus on what it is that we need to do to play our game like we have been It'll be a good one and coach. We wish you the best of luck. We'll see you back here next week. Thanks so much for coach Tracy Johnson, I'm Sam Murray and this has been the Tracy Johnson show
