Yep, that was one exception, when the middle two players in the zone drifted a bit too high away from Jacovich and she converted the quick pass. But it was almost the exception that proves the rule - the Tigers' defense never came that far out again. At points, they were inside three meters, let alone four. My favorite goal was the last one (I think?), where Neushul wound up and hammered the ball from about 5 meters between the goalie and the left-post defender.
And one troubling thing - Stanford didn't win a single sprint. I noticed the same thing in the $C and UCLA matches in the Pac-12 tourney; those extra possessions add up.
