Bermuda will be hoping for another all-action performance from Renee Greenslade tomorrow evening, as they face their biggest challenge of the summer at the National Sports Centre.

After posting a 4-1 record against NCAA Division III opposition this month, Bermuda take on Division II champions Shippensburg University, who finished with a 20-3 record last season on the way to beating LIU Post 2-1 in the finals last November.

Greenslade has impressed in anchoring the centre of Bermuda’s midfield this summer. She scored the first and set up the second Bermuda goal in the 2-0 win over Worcester Polytechnic Institute on Tuesday night, after becoming one of three home players to receive a green card.

The midfielder took out her frustrations on WPI, though, in inspiring Bermuda to victory, with their goals coming in the fourth quarter.

“I was obstructing, but the other player was pushing back and we are always told to hold our ground and not be pushed around, so I was holding my ground and it ended up with me getting a green card,” Greenslade explained. “At first, it frustrated me because I felt the green card could have gone both ways, because there was pushing both ways.

“It sort of did [gee me up]. It made me want to get back out there and help as much as I could, since I missed two minutes on the field, [leaving] us a man down.”

Greenslade scored the first from a penalty corner.

“The first goal was off of the [penalty] corner, which Selina [Whitter] stopped to Jasmine [Patterson] and then Jasmine had a nice hit-in, which I deflected in off the post,” she said.

The second goal came from a penalty stroke scored by Whitter, after a shot from Greenslade hit a WPI foot on the goalline.

“I told Selina to take it,” Greenslade said. “I haven’t taken that many strokes, so I told her to take it instead!”

Greenslade also explained how important her role is as part of the whole team.

“My job is to set people up so they can block passes from their offence and then try to push ourselves up as one unit and back as one unit so that we’re all working together,” she said.

Meanwhile, Shippensburg flew in from Pennsylvania to the island last night as they look to retain their American college title under first-year head coach, Tara Zollinger.

“We are looking forward to spending time together and getting to know one another,” Raiders head coach Zollinger told the team’s official website. “This is a great opportunity to do that.”

The game starts at 6pm tomorrow on the NSC’s hockey field.
