Soccer team prepares for the big tournament this weekend with a
scrimmage againsrGeneva College. Although the scrimmage saw the
Cubs go down in defeat, the match heralded hopes for bigger and better
things for the Behrend team.

Sports reporter
Behrend Campus will host its
second annual invitational soccer
tournament this weekend,
October I and 2.
Invading the Cub's home field
will be three rugged opponents
who promise to pose a stiff
challenge to Behrend's hopes of a
second straight tournament
crown. The Cubs won the affair
last year with a 3 -1 victory over
Altoona Campus.
In the first match, at 1:30
Friday afternoon, a scrappy
Slippery Rock J.V. team clashes
with tough Erie County College of
Buffalo, New - York: 'Tlie - Rockets
were 3 - 5 - 2 last season, while the
Erie County team compiled a 5 - 5
record.
Our own Behrend Cubs meet
Lakeland College in the 3:30
nightcap. This is the third all
time meeting between these two
soccer powers with Behrend
holding a 2 - 0 edge. Lakeland
had a deceiving 1-10 -1 record in
1970 against powerful opposition,
including nationally ranked
teams.
The consolation game will start
at 12 noon on Saturday while the
big championship game begins at
2:00.
The outlook for this year's
Behrend team is very bright with
a host of returning lettermen
from last year's 5 - 5 squad and a
group of sensational freshmen
prospects.
The talented Cubs are led by
sophomore captain Jim Channis.
Channis comes off a fine fresh
man season which saw him score

Herb Lauffer is a hell of a
coach and one hell of a man.
The Behrend soccer coach, now
in his third season at Behrend,
being the classiest coach on this
campus, he sets his own style:
white shoes, expensive looking
suits and a sharp announcer-type
voice. His air of professionalism
seems to spread to everyone who
comes in contact with him.
His players respect him
because they know he will mold
thaw into true athletes. The
players want to win and they
gladly accept his two-a-day
workouts because they want to be
in top physical condition for the
big tourney this weekend.
Practice starts at 7:15 a.m.
But Lauffer renli7es that there
are more important things than
winning. That's why he entered
the coaching field. "I always got
more out of athletics than just the
business of winning or losing.
The opportunity to work with
young people,,,and to work with
athletes and try to develop them
and to mold them into a cohesive

team was something I knew
would be enjoyable for me."
Lauffer is a graduate - of Slip
pery Rock where he played four
years of soccer and two years of
tennis.
Upon graduation, Coach
Lauffer took a position at
Iroquois High School in Lawrence
Park where he coached tennis,
track and junior high basketball.
Summers he workde towards his
Master's Degree at West Virginia
University, earning it in 1968.
After five years at Iroquois,
Coach Lauffer looked for a
college job because he was
"disenchanged wtih high school
work". He found Behrend
Campus to his liking.
When asked if Behrend could
be termed a "stepping - stone", -
the 29-year-old Butler native
admitted, "I can't say I'm not
looking. I came here with my
sights set eventually on a small
four-year institution. I am willing
to =give this campus a chance,
however, I'm not going to move
for the sake of moving."

today's trend is away from
emphasizing athletics, Coach
Lauffer replied, "I guess the
trend is slightly away from it, but
with that trend athletes are more
important than they've ever
been."
As to what a person gains
participating in sports at any
place but a major school, the
Coach answered, "I think there's
that self-satisfaction of realizing
that you're dedicating yourself,
you're sacrificing a great deal
and you're not taking the easy
way out. It's all apart of your
self-discipline. Psychologically
as well as physically, man needs
competition. He has that in
stinctive nature to compete, to
play, to organize some form of
physical activity."
"A boy gives himself to our
program and gets a lot from it in
just this self-actualization type of
thing where he actualizes himself
as being the best. He may not go
a hundred per cent on it, but he's
trying to be the best at whatever
he's doing."
Herb Lauffer understands
athletes. Herb Lauffer spells
success.
