 Welcome in to the Laura Martin show. I'm Sam Murray joined by field hockey head coach Laura Martin and coach. Thanks for being here Of course So a happy opening weekend for you and your team Almost have two shutouts about three seconds away Oh, yeah, I've got to bring that up But you you did come away with a 3-1 victory over McDaniel followed that up with the shutout 3-0 over st Mary's talk about the opening weekend Yeah, so I was very proud of the girls coming out with the two two wins is huge for us Obviously, we would have liked to have two shutouts and a couple more goals in our pocket but all in all We all have our wish list and but very pleased with the overall performance of the team So you did score six goals five different goal scorers a lot of youth getting on the board, too Noelle Martin scores twice Brigitte Saroche gets her first career goal And an assist and then Brooke Morris with three assists talk about the youth on the team So, yeah, so those three freshmen are just you know, just getting started in the whole ball game They both or they all three have a lot of speed and just just feisty feisty little freshmen that are very athletic and gifted and Doing some fantastic things for our program early on and then on the back line Kelsey You're was named defensive player of the week on the back line there And then Marissa Hoffman also came up with a big defensive save late in the game So just talk about your defense and their performance So Kelsey and Marissa work together with each other last year as well So they're familiar with each other with the language and we're working hard defensively with a three-back system and fine-tuning our overlapping midfield defense with those two specifically Taking charge of the middle area. So they're doing a good job. All right. Let's kind of move forward here Big game coming up at Salisbury. Oh, yeah Big test right away. Talk about that matchup. So I think at this point stage It's really important for us to focus on us. We are coming off the two wins. We've got a lot of speed We're we've got great momentum flow and I think that we really need to be positive going into this and we don't want to overanalyze and Sort of look at that name and freeze up because that's that's the direction. We're headed and then you come home In the week home against Washington on Saturday. Just talk a little bit about that matchup as well So Washington has had some transitions. So they've got a new coach in line. So we're not exactly sure what we'll see as far as The type of game that they'll play their system APC's DPC's all of those things that I like to study pretty religiously But we we do know that they'll be athletic They're always athletic and and we do know that this is the first time and it seems like a gazillion years that we've actually hosted I'm home. So it will be nice to play them on our own turf Well, we wish you the best of luck in both those games. Thank you and hoping to come back with a big W That's all is very She's Laura Martin.
