In game one of the season App State destroyed Townson 7-1.

Up next on 31 Aug is Georgetown. Last season Georgetown ended ranked 70 out of 82 teams while App State ended ranked 47.

The ladies did to Towson what a good team does to a not so good team. A six goal win is a blowout in FH. 3-1 over Georgetown isn't a blowout but a solid win, Georgetown is traditionally pretty bad but has improved a little recently.

Coach Dinsmore is really doing a nice job with the team. They should be in the hunt for another conference title, just need to get over the tournament bid hump. But with UMass now in the league (they were a national semifinalist last year), winning the MAC will be tougher this year.

As a father of both a '26 (who sadly for me isn't App bound) and a '28 player, I currently follow field hockey rercuiting closely. So I will say Coach Dinsmore has been killing it on the recruiting trail with the entirty of both upcoming 26 and 27 classes appearing on the Max Field Hockey Top 100 class of 26 and class of 27 lists. My '28 daughter just told me her friend and one of the top '27 goalie prospects in the nation just committed to App today. The future is bright on the mountain for field hockey.

I always appreciate your input about FH. Adding UMass will be a big improvement for MAC FH and hopefully we can stay in the hunt. I hope we can keep this coach for a long time as she has impressed me.
