Need to keep face-offs even. Take better shots. Kind of a long shot but still doable on the road against UMass.

Sovero with the early game to put Tigers up 1-0.

Another won face-off and Maloof scores to make it 2-0 Towson.

Defense blows a ground ball after stripping the face-off guy and UMass scores a gargage goal to make it 2-1.

Now 2-2 after a horrific turnover. The zone defense leaving too many open so far. Brennan also has to make that long save.

Another scoreless EMO. Monahan had three decent shots and all missed. Still 2-2 late in the first quarter.

Once again, we can't scoop up key ground balls and UMass scores on transition, 3-2 UMass. Our low shots are also getting eaten up by UMass goalie. May need to go high.

Long stick UMass player scores as Paparo beats Brennan from long range off another turnover. This one by McLean. 4-2 UMass and Woodall needs to start winning face-offs or this one is over early.

To make it worse, Koby Smith picks up an unnecessary roughness penalty and UMass will have the ball in the 2nd quarter up 4-2 with the ball and up a many for 55 seconds. Ridiculous.

5-2 UMass. Another easy pass and goal at the doorstep. We are so bad on special teams this season. Awful.
