Jamie is all about defense. I think Maggie is starting to develop that same feeling because you can see her team play tougher, hard-nosed defense every game.

Saturday's game provided a good test for our defense, while offering a challenge to our attackers. Noblesville is a counterattack team built on speed, and our defenders had to constantly adjust to this tactic.

The Greens look excellent, but I worry about anybody's defense.

The defense is looking good. We have some new guys coming in and they're progressing daily with their tackling and techniques.

Neither team really executed well tonight, but both sides played good defense. We just didn't execute well and it seemed like we got out of sync with doing the things we've done up to this point. I think some of that was nerves tonight.

We were able to close the door with our defense when we needed.
