Page 12- The Behretzd College Collegian Thursda y , October 23, 1997 Lions split pair by Matt Plizga Sports Editor Sunday's battle on the Penn State-Behrend soccer field was a huge game in the inaugural season of AMCC play. Frostburg State made the trip from Maryland to play the Behrend men's soccer team for the honor of hosting the first AMCC conference championship tournament. Both teams entered the contest in the midst of impressive seasons and with identical 3-0 conference records. Frostburg State used an early goal to put pressure on the Lions offense on route to a 3-1 victory. After falling behind in the first half Coach Dan Perritano's troops rallied midway through the second half to make an exciting game of it. "It took us time to settle in but once we did we prol,cd we can compete with them [Frostburg State]," said Coach Dan Perritano. A Behrend threat to tie the game at one went sour when an open shot on goal slammed into the corner post only to bounce away for the Lions. photo by Mike McCrackin Where are you going?

Freshman Josh Castillo answered back moments later with a spinning shot on goal from just outside the 18-yard mark. The goal by Castillo was his fifth of the year and triggered a series of Behrend shots on goal. Unfortunately for the Lions the Frostburg State goalie was able to stop the remainder of the shots on goal. The loss dropped Behrend into second place in the AMCC with a 3-1-conference record. The Lions also fell to 10-5 on the season. Despite the loss Perritano maintained his confidence in his team. "The only direction we will head is north," said Perritano. Perritano's kickers picked up their tenth win of the season with a 1-0 victory over conference foe Laßoche on Saturday. The win assured Behrend of their first back-to-back winning seasons since 1977-78. Captain Travis Lang provided the Lions offense with his team leading sixth goal of the year. Lang also has seven assists this year, tops on the Behrend team. lons Men's Doubles "B" Flight Tim Smaby Ido Millet Men's Singles "A" Flight Eric Muir Women's Doubles Women's Singles * * *the Intramural web-site soon* * * deadline Type of Tournament Time and Place in AMCC men's soccer action Freshman goalie Graham Rudolph recorded his fifth shutout of the year in the win. The Lions defense has been a key to their success throughout the year. The goalie combination of Rudolph and Tommy Sieg has registered six shutouts and allowed just around 1.5 goals per game. Two freshmen have joined Lang to lead Behrend's offensive attack. Both Josh Castillo and Chris Lightner have contributed five goals on the year. Castillo has also dished out five assists, while junior Ryan Croyle has knocked home three goals. The Lions will return to action on the road October 25 when they travel to Brockport University. With three games remaining before the AMCC tournament Behrend will be looking to sharpen their skills in preparation for another showdown with Frostburg State. "Hopefully what we learn between now and the tournament will help us," said Perritano. Shana Cotti Kelli Mcauliff Shana Cotti photo by John Hoderny Where did it go?
