Practice Update: April 24, 2008

Not surprisingly, today’s practice was quite short due to the bad weather, and the teams impending departure to DC. Things were quite intense as usual.
  • The team was split into two groups. One group took shots on goal while the other was doing a possession/defensive pressure drill.

  • They finished with a full sided scrimmage.

  • The starting lineup of one side may give some indication to the coaching staff’s thoughts at this point for Saturday’s starting eleven.

  • This lineup included Rimando, Wingert, Borchers, Olave, Beltran, Talley, Beckerman, Kovalenko, Morales, Deuchar and Findley. Sturgis was not present and Espindola spent his time running. Everyone else participated fully.

  • Look for Cordoba to possibly get some action in the Open Cup match next Wednesday.
