Cubs Top 'Hurst For
Third Soccer Win
By Justin Pinson
Co&giros Sports Writer
The Behrend-Varsity Soccer team
didn't exactly begin the season with
a bang, losing its first five games,
including being shutout in the first
three. But an amazingly positive at
titude has paid off. Since that horrid
start, the Cubi have come back with
three straight victories, including a
10-0 whitewashing of Alliance and
wins over Mercyhurst (5-4) and

Edinboro (2-0), two teams that beat
Behrend last year. This attitude
stems from coach Herb Lauffer, a
rational, no-nonsense man who
believes strongly in a logical, ball
control style of play. Coming off a
disappointing season at Behrend, he
speaks candidly of the problems of
building a team at a two year
school. "It's more difficult than at
many of the schools we have to
compete against, but it's something
that all of our coaches have ex
perienced. If you think about it, it
just becomes frustrating, so you just
have to go with it. First of all, we
don't have students that are here on
scholarship in any of our sports and
I recognize that they are here
primarily for an education. As
coaches, we have to continue to re
mind ourselves that his or her
education is the most important
thing. There is no question, we're in
a unique situation oftentimes we
are in the situation where we have to
recruit an athlete twice; we recruit
him as a freshman, and then we at
tempt to recruit him at the end of his
sophomore year to stay in one of
our major programs, rather than go
down to University Park."
Of the twenty-five man roster,
three are upperclassmen and the rest
are freshmen and sophomores.
Coach Lauffer sees the strength,
leadership and solid play coming,
especially from these three, "... and

who is the captain; Greg Zemanski,
and John Lorenz. John and Terry
are juniors and Greg is a senior.
Beyond that, Joel Buckwalter came
off a fine freshman year and has
started out well this year. Jamie
Kreber, as a freshman, was our se
cond leading scorer, producing six
goals and five assists."
True to his coach's words, the
robust, hard-working, sometimes
zany midfielder, Terry (Smurf)
Mannering leads the team with five
goals and one assist. Joel
Buckwalter is second with five
goals, followed by Jamie Kreber's
four goals-three assists; Ron (Bong)
Lee with four goals; and Greg "Z"
Zemanski with one goal-three
assists. In addition to these strong
performances, the excellent job that
the other team members have been
doing mustn't be forgotten.
Once again, the two striker of
fense is being used, and Coach
Lauffer explains the reasoning.
"The midfield is a very critical area
of the field to be dominant in; it's
the vital link between us offensively
and defensively. The two striker of
fense (4-4-2), provides an advantage
because attacks coming from deep
in the defense, tend to be confusing
to the opponent." He also added

that the 4-4-2 isn't less offense at all,
rather a solid middle and it's
possibly the system of the future in
soccer.
Another important aspect of the
game is goaltending, and
sophomore Larry Gunther returns,
having allowed just 1.27 goals per
game last year. It's no secret that
Gunther has struggled this year,
looking especially flat-footed in the
first half against Gannon. But he
seems to be mounting a comeback
after his shutout over Alliance,
gaining confidence and coming up
with a number of key saves.
Looking to the remaining half of
the schedule, Lauffer cites Slippery
Rock, Grove City, Geneva, and
Fredonia as having strong pro
grams. He says, "Our goal always is
to make the play-bffs, and to do
that we have to play well against
everyone, but in particular, to play
well against those four teams that I
mentioned. The way we're playing
now, we can't take anyone for
granted, we just have to take 'em
one at a time."
