Ebsary recorded career highs in a single game with three assists and four points against the Buckeyes. He also collected two groundballs, caused one turnover, and limited Logan Schuss, Ohio State’s leading scorer, to just two assists. For his efforts, Ebsary was named the ECAC Co-Defensive Player of the Week.
“The thing that we were just so excited about was that midfield's production,” he said. “Taylor with three assists and Hurst had two goals, and we hadn't seen that from that midfield. We really challenged them to step up, and I thought they did that.”
“You want to be smart on the offensive end when you've got a nice lead,” he said. “You want to tell the guys to take good, smart shots, but in doing that, you stop going to the goal aggressively, and that's what we're trying to work on. We want to have good patience, but we also talked about maybe just not telling our kids to slow down. If we've got the ball in transition, we've got to continue to run hard, and we've got to put our kids in position to play offense because when we stop playing at full-speed, bad things happen. I don't know if that's as much on the kids as it's us coaches looking at things and discussing our philosophy.”
