Bleggi was one of the girls
at the get-together and said,
"It was a really fun night just
hanging out with the team
and Patrick for the last time.
No one was really sad, be

we would see him soon."
Something that O'Driscoll
wanted to stress was his ap
preciation for the girls and
all of their hard work.
"They work very hard for
me. Without their hard work
then we wouldn't be where
we are today and wouldn't
have accomplished what we
have. Everything they've
done I appreciate it and
them."

The Penn State Behrend
Lions women's soccer team
may not have finished in
first place in the ECAC tour

about.
On Nov. 15 the Lady Lions
played in the ECAC tourna
ment game against Swarth
more College, a team who
won the ECAC South Tour
nament in 2007 and 2008.
Behrend came out empty
handed, but Coach Patrick
O'Driscoll sees it as an ac

The first half was fairly
even, back and forth play.
The last 15 minutes of the
game we just couldn't get
the ball out of our end of the
field."
The winning goal wasn't
scored until the fifty-sixth
minute of play by junior
Kirsten Peterson
Junior Jaclyn Stottlemyer
also agreed with Coach o'-
Driscoll saying, "I think we
played really well, they
came out really strong in the
second half and scored but
we never stopped fighting.
We just kept playing really
hard."
Another reason why the
Lady Lions' program
shouldn't hang their heads
is because they had nine
