 Welcome back to the Laurel Martin show presented by Buffalo Wildwings. I'm Sam Murray joined now with Stevenson field hockey head coach Laurel Martin and coach Winding down towards the end of the year just one game left sitting at two and four and conference play all four losses By just one goal two of them are in overtime right include in one one of the happy spot before I came in here One of the one of the one goal losses though is to Messiah right who obviously is a powerhouse Talk about your team's performance through conference play so far So I mean I I feel Very proud of my girls. It's just one of those seasons where we compete we compete we compete and we just end up a step shy and I think that Our strength of schedule is really gonna come and benefit us. Hopefully for this Wednesday We were currently Well, not currently anymore, but as of last week, we were at ninth in the nation for strength of schedule So we're playing the best teams and we're competing And and now we need to actually secure those wins to continue on Yeah, last time we talked you only had four goal scorers You're now at nine. Of course leading the way is Sarah McVeigh. She's one goal shy tying her 15 that she scored Her first year. Yeah, just talk about the offensive production that stepped up through through conference play Well, of course, we have Sarah and she's the the leader on the field on the attack She's currently fighting through a lot of pain and it just shows the willpower that she has because I don't even know If you can recognize it out there on the field, so she's continuing to play she loves the sport She loves the game and obviously she's being marked up now She's being challenged by some tough defenders and still being able to secure goals So we're very happy with that You know, we've added Marissa into the mix She is a tough striker on our attack penalty corners And we continue to vary up our corners based off of the defense of our opponents And then we've got Grayson who stepped in and on one game had two goals and was a Great step on the attack in midfield position as well. So there's a lot. There's a lot out there that can score We just really need to do it. Yeah Yeah, so you in the regular season at Lebanon Valley a place you are familiar with familiar Yeah, and contrary to what we thought it's a win-and-in game for you. Yeah, so I made a mistake I I messed up the I Don't know what you want to call it the the card shall we say and I thought that the loss to Albright meant that we were more or less out and thankfully enough I was wrong and One another win against Lev Val based off of goal direct differential and those other factors We will be in so I'm very excited for the team to be able to go out there and hopefully play a Great game and not play with too much pressure. They need to just relax and go in there confident Well coach, thank you for your time. I wish you the best luck the rest of the way. Thanks for head coach Laurel Martin.
