Indoor League

Friendship Heights indoor vs Calvin and Alanna - game was really sloppy to start, and we crawled to a 2-point lead at the half, then never managed to open up the gap and eventually let off too many runs. Lost by 10ish. Took a few too many shots that would have been great outdoors, but just a bit too far for indoor.

Indoor

Was originally planning on a sprint workout, but Ronnie Eder invited me to play indoor so I went out to Armory after happy hour.

Showed up part-way into the first game against the B-Marsh/Colleen team, didn't get too many opportunities to go head to head with Brian but did some stuff. We won by a few points?

Second game was against Calvin, Kevin Chiang, Dustin, Pez, etc. I thought on paper there was no way we'd take it, but apart from a string of over-the-top goals to Calvin, we really controlled the pace of the game and wound up winning by 8ish.

Apart from playing poorly in the air - skied once each by B-Marsh, Calvin, and Kevin - I think I did my thing, to the extent my thing could be done with the broad skill level represented at the Armory. Had a few nice connections with some of the ladies, including a couple deep balls. Armory is weird. Not sure if I'd like it for a full season, but it was good to run around - definitely got a good sweat going.

Coaching

Practiced some more traditional reset motion in order to incorporate that into the toolbox. I'd like to see us maintain more space around the thrower, however, in order to increase the number of options available to the new thrower once that reset pass is completed.

Indoor League

Friendship Heights indoor league vs Duke and Dutchy and Trevor and Neena and Kath. It was 17-37 or something like that when I arrived 15 minutes into the game, halftime was a margin of ~25 and we finished with a modest comeback to lose by 15. I felt pretty bad and never got into a rhythm. Should not have counted on the Red Line to get me there in time.

Biked up to Tenleytown to do a recovery workout in the Wilson pool, but it was closed for repairs. Instead got dinner with Grace before practice.

Practice was low attendance but a strong step back from my perspective, having been away for a few weeks.

Friendship Heights indoor vs Twiggy: they picked up Calvin for the first half and crushed us 21-50, then we made a bit of a comeback once Calvin stopped playing and ended the game 58-77. Pretty rough. I played a little over 22 of the 40 minutes, hung out in the backfield maybe a bit too much and forced some throws but tried to play space well on D.

6MTWW

6MTWW with the Cardozo Middle School Junior Varsity Track and Field Team
Played a combo Squirrels/Foya/Biddies team in the first round, super fun. Then some Virginia peeps in the second round, they took it more seriously but still a fun game. Third round was a group of WAFC players for the most part, we won that too but I was definitely inebriated by that point. Then semis against The Current, which definitely took it way more seriously and I may or may not have fallen down during the game, having fully committed to the Wildwood vibe. Would have really loved a shot at the Burrito Bandits, but had a great time nonetheless.

Justice practice: people are looking in useful spaces, but we all need to clear more decisively in order to open the cutting and throwing lanes for our teammates. Especially if you just threw a pass, try to move aggressively either to follow your throw and continue attacking, or else get out of the way so the new thrower has multiple angles available.

Goalty, Mini

90min goalty, first game lefty passes only (surprisingly effective, although there were definitely shots I couldn't take). Then switched back to righty-dominant. Played defense intermittently, moved the disc pretty well, took looks in some good windows but overall a bit sloppy for all of us.

90min mini, 4v4 and 5v5. Tried to keep moving for the most part, making space and hitting my looks. Played some good defense in space at times, got a couple blocks but wasn't taking over by any means. Lot of good players out there, super fun to get into that groove.

Indoor league vs Foss/Ohls/Fey/Malks. 25-50 at half, 61-92 final. Played 23:20 of the 40 minute game. Probably should have subbed more quickly, but stayed on the field because we kept getting roasted and I felt like I had to try to get us back in it. Definitely under/overthrew some shots, took a couple small windows that didn't work out, but also played generally strong defense. Particularly against Jonny and Foss. Felt like I limited them for the most part. Still sucked to get run up on like that. Hopefully the team comes together more in future games.

Pickup

Played pickup for a good long while, mostly savage 5v5 and 7v7 at W&L with a strong group of club players. Awesome day for it, and a good way to work off the events of last evening.
