Elizabeth Jacobs is head coach of the Scripps Ranch field hockey team. The Falcons met La Jolla in the CIF Open Division semifinals at La Jolla High Tuesday night, Nov. 12. The Vikings won, 2-1.
For decades, La Jolla had to face Scripps Ranch and Canyon Hills (formerly Serra) in the hierarchy of San Diego County field hockey powers, never able to overcome the other two schools' excellence through their athletes, coaching, stick skills, and feeder programs.
Now, the tide has turned.
These comments came before the semifinals Nov. 12.
What are you looking for your girls to emphasize tonight?
Today our focus is to put a lot of high pressure, mark tight in the middle, and beat them up the sidelines.
Who's going to be a key player for you?
We've got (senior captain) Ava Schramm at center mid(fielder), (senior) Brooke Griffin at center defense, and then we have two sisters, (senior captain) C.J. and (sophomore) Sammy Ippolito, on the forward line who work really well together.
