 Welcome into the Toddy Korba show. I'm Sam Murray, joined with head women's soccer coach Toddy Korba. And coach, talk about a little bit last week. You opened with Gettysburg on Wednesday. Not exactly the result you were looking for. Two early goals in the first five minutes. But then I thought you guys picked it up after that. What did you guys learn from that game? A lot. One, I think, is maybe a little bit of a tendency to start slow. Gettysburg got on the board early, two goals in six minutes. And then we were kind of scrambling. They threw some different things at us. Then we were used to. Certainly then we'd seen in practice to this point. And we made some in-game adjustments, but then really were able to kind of get a hold of them at halftime and make some bigger adjustments, some formation adjustments. And I thought second half, they did a great job kind of fixing the things that we needed to have them fix. And we're able to get one back. And Sam Hooker hit the crossbar great save from the Gettysburg keeper. I thought we had the pressure on, but Gettysburg did a great job killing out the clock. And so we kind of felt like we'd love to get those six minutes back and see what could have happened. But I think we learned a lot in that game just in terms of how we were able to start games. Does it make you feel good as a coach when you look at the stat sheet and say, you guys pretty much dominated the shot total in that game? I believe it was somewhere around 17 to nine. Do you take that as a positive, leaving that game? Yeah, I think there were a lot of positives to take from that game. And certainly some adjustments again that we wanted to make. But I think we've been pretty resilient so far. And I think to come back from that and to get one goal back and to almost get the equalizer and, again, credit to Gettysburg for kind of keeping us off the score sheet and killing out the clock. But I think, yeah, we stayed at it. And I think we had a lot of fight. And when you have that, there's a lot of good things you can do. So then Sunday, you kicked off your six-game road trip at St. Mary's and came away with a 1-0 victory there. Got outshot a bit, but then on the back line there, Tiffany McKee came up big with 16 saves. Talk about that performance. And can we expect a lot of 1-0 victories? I hope not. I hope we have bigger victories than that. Yesterday, Sunday was a tough game for us. We talk a lot about excuses versus kind of realities. And it was our first road game. We've been on our turf at home at night in the cold rain. And this was our first away game on a Sunday, small grass field, and it was hot. And so those things were a factor in the game for us. And really, it wasn't really our overall best effort. It wasn't our best game. We struggled to do a lot of the things that we have been doing consistently. Tiffany did have a great game, came up with some big saves to keep us in it. But again, St. Mary's is a physical team. They played pretty direct. And I think in large part we made that game a little bit more complicated than it needed to be. So again, just so many lessons, I think we're starting to discover that the little things add up in terms of how much sleep we're getting and our mental prep and our nutrition and our hydration. And all these little things are starting to kind of add up a little bit. So we're trying to take care of the details that we can control. So looking ahead, you hit the road again, like you're on the sixth game road trip. Two games away from Mustang Stadium, you open with Catholic on Wednesday and follow that up with a road trip to Frostburg State. What do you hope to see from your team in those two games? I think, again, a quicker start. I thought that was certainly something positive that came from the St. Mary's game is that we did score a first 10 minutes in that game, which was different from what we'd done against Gettysburg, something we addressed in practice. So you'd like to take all the things that you want to fix from game to game and hope that they continue to add up. So again, want a quick start against Catholic. It's a team I know pretty well. And I think it's going to be a tough game. It's going to be a good game. And I think we're going to have to come in there and just compete and battle and bring our best effort. And I think clean up some things in the back line that we're looking to clean up. And it's still really early in the season. And we've got so much that we want to work on and so much that we want to improve functionally within different aspects of the game. So little by little, we're starting to chip away at those and hope that we're learning things and then bringing them to the next game. Well, we wish you luck in both those games. She's Toddy Korba.
