Face Offs

Face Offs

Finley will be back next year. Can't we connect Finley and perhaps 1-2 other face off specialists with a really good face off coach (not necessarily an ND coach) and have them work on face offs all summer? Imagine if we could win face offs at a level like Denver, North Carolina, etc. I realize that Denver won almost all of the face offs against Towson and still lost the game but that was an outlier and certainly not the norm. Face off performance has contributed to a number of our losses over the past few years and some big ones at that.
