(3) Quick look at a great spread O set up from Riot.  Riot has a great look with lots of space, but nothing comes from it and there are a few things we can do to make this better.

(4) Similar to (3), this video takes a look at a spread O point for Riot.

(5) Two great hustle plays from Riot on the same point.  The video also discusses ways to improve the long throw.

(6) Wonderful defensive play by Gwen

(7) Super O by Riot.  The cut / huck to get the disc down the field is excellent, and the play in the endzone to score is also awesome.

(8) Close look at a Riot huck.  Also a great play / lesson from Shannon hiding in the clip.

(10) Same spread O set as (9) with a slightly different result as Riot ends up getting the disc down the field pretty quickly this time. There are a few ways to improve this play a little. This video also looks at the endzone set after the time out call.

(11) One more spread O set from Riot that doesn’t go as well as it could have. In this video we look at the movement of one of the sideline cutters and how that movement essentially shuts down one side of the field.

(12) Another play – the huck is great, but watch Shannon (on the lhs of the screen). Such smart play by her (hustling until she knows the point is over, and staying wide), and she’s rewarded with an easy goal. So smart, so great.

(16) Nice huck to Surge. A nice example of good spacing and good cutting leading to a goal.

(17) Nice huck by Riots, and also some good movement away from the disc to leave the space open for the cutter.

(18) Some uncoordinated O from Riot in the 2012 US Open finals. A double cut in the beginning creates problems that last for a few passes. Riot does end up with one nice look, though.

(19) Riot does a good job getting the disc down the field quickly with a nice huck from Hana to KK. Unfortunately the huck doesn’t score and there’s a little bit of a struggle in endzone O.

(23) Beautiful huck from Caitlin to Surge.  One of the best plays of the year!

(24) Incomplete Riot huck. Interesting to compare to (23) because the cut and positioning of the thrower are similar.

(25) A close look at a Riot huck. Riot scores on the play, but there’s still plenty of room for improvement.
