Team is young but needs to play with more poise and start getting better. Too many lost possessions with jittery first touches and nervous passes. And bad finishing against BYU. Our two best forwards botched good scoring opportunities. McClung, who will be a good player, had an excellent scoring chance, with the whole net in front of her, and didn't even force the keeper to make a save. Seemed like a shaky shot. Then in the second half, Wilkinson, who plays for the New Zealand national team and is supposed to be UT's best offensive player did the same. Got a good pass just outside the BYU box and instead of settling the ball and calmly whelping it into the net, as she had time to do, she opted to try a one-timer and, off-balance, futzed it badly over the net. Have to do better than that. Looks like Pensky is cranking up the recruiting, which we need, but also need to start playing better in midfield--the problem last year--and finishing better, also a consistent problem.
