Unexpected loss for Soccer team On Saturday, September 27 the Penn State Behrend Mens' Varsity Soccer Team experienced an unusual and unexpeced loss to Walsh College. This places their current record at 2-3-1. The game got off to a slow start fot the Cubs. "We played much better the second half than we did the first", says captain Todd Lindenmuth. It is perhaps what some might call a freak accident that the other team won. When speaking with freshman goalie Mark Yingling, he said is was just a mistake. "I came out of the goal to assist team member Jay Varcoe. I told him to pass it back to me, but it was too far over for me to get, so it slid right in". This occurrence resulted in the only goal of the game, leaving the final score at 1-0. "We definitely outplayed them", said Todd. The junior captain predicts the team will begin to do really well from now on. "We all play well together and get along fine." Coach Lauffer took the loss very well considering the cirucm stances. Captain Mike Hockenberger said, "There's nothing we can do about it now. All we have to do is concentrate on the next game, and make sure we win." . The Cubs received quite a tur nout on Saturday considering it was All-U Day at Penn State, University Park. There were not as many students available to go to the soccer game that weekend.
