秀色短视频 Field Hockey ready for AUFH Championship Weekend
秀色短视频 Field Hockey is ready to challenge for the Atlantic University Field Hockey Championship this weekend in Halifax. After finishing regular season tournament play in third, the Panthers look to play their best field hockey of the season at the right time.
Coach Sheila Bell commented, 鈥淎s we enter into our final tournament with high expectations and feeling confident in all areas of the field, we look forward to playing quality competition. SMU has played us strong all season and we have made adjustments in order to reach our potential offensively.鈥�
She added, 鈥淲e will be counting on our veterans Kathryn Koughan and Sydney Stavert to set the tone and bring a new level of intensity as they have been doing leading up to this weekend. Laura Young has moved from centre back to the wing and has proven she has a natural scoring touch which will compliment Alyssa Ferguson up front.鈥�
In Saturday鈥檚 pool play, 秀色短视频 will play SMU (1st in tier 1) at 1:00 pm and Acadia (3rd in Tier 2) at 3:00 pm. Both games will be played on Dalhousie鈥檚 turf field. Championship Sunday will be hosted by SMU with Semifinal #1 (1st Pool A vs 2nd in Pool B ) at 9:00 am and Semifinal #2 ( 1st Pool B vs 2nd in Pool A) at 10:15 am.
The AUFH Bronze Medal game is scheduled for 12:30 pm with the Championship at 2:30 pm. The All-Star and Major Awards presentation will follow the Championship game.
