Depends on what you mean by 'handle'.

95 could latch onto a goal, and in a pinch hold it in position (or at least slow it down). It was difficult to push or pull the goal, and there was no way we could turn with it. If we thought some one was going to steal it from us, we usally just let go, since our latch was very weak. The only reason we had any method of latching a goal was to facilitate our ball dumping. If we could think of a way to do it with out latching, we would have.

We handle goals about as well as 25 handles balls: we can nudge them around, but don't expect us to do much scoring with them. We are a straight out ball handler, goals just arn't our thing. We very well may be the weakest goal handler in the game. But then again, we can pick up 20 balls in 6 seconds, so it balences out in qualification rounds. Finals are a diffrent story...
