Schumar serves in ‘quarterback’ role in No. 2 ranked offense
Schumar holds all-time records for points and assists in a single season.While standing behind the goal with the ball in her stick, senior attacker Mary Schumar reads the defense like an NFL quarterback, trying to anticipate an open teammate through a crowd of defenders.
Then, Schumar sees senior attacker Shea Garcia break open to which she fires a pass and Garcia puts it in the back of the net.
The crowd cheers and those on the Golden Eagles break into their celebration dances.
“She’s our quarterback, the ball goes through her hands more than anybody else,” Wolf said. “She’s our biggest decision maker and she sees everyone ahead of her.”
