—The Daily Collegian Friday, Oct. 13, 1995 &§Baj®3(D(Baßff Soccer club provides another chance to boot By JOHN RATZESBERGER Collegian Sports Writer Last year, the Penn State Women’s Soccer Club broke up when Penn State decided to form a varsity team. Many of the women who were originally on the club team were drafted by the varsity, leaving the club team without many players and ultimately causing the team to fall apart. That’s where Joanna Ultman (junior-nutrition), the team’s president, comes in. She start ed the club again after it turned into the varsity team last year. Ultman enjoys playing for the team and proudly stated that the team tied the national cham pions, Miami (Ohio), two weeks ago. “I’ve been doing sports all my life, I know I have three days of practice a week and still have fun on the weekend,” she said, describing the team as “a lot of fun doing hard work.” The club will host a four-team tournament tomorrow at Pol lock Field. It will begin at 9:30 a.m., and include teams from Michigan, Ohio University, and Rutgers.

Heading into this week ends tournament, the team boasts a 5-1-2 record, their only loss coming in the first game of the season. The team does not enjoy the same kind of funding as the var sity teams. According to Sam paio, about 75 percent of the teams money comes from fund raisers and from within the team. Each player must con tribute a small fee that is used for travel expenses. The other 25 percent comes from the club sports office. Sampaio stressed the players’ dedication, that every team member played in high school, and the talent at the club level is probably better than most might suspect. “Women’s soccer in the past year or two has exploded, more girls are play ing.... There is a lot to be seen at the club level.” Christa Rimanneau (fresh man-biology) plays center mid field for the team and said all the players take the team seri ously, and still have fun.

They discussed the team goals and what must be done to accomplish them. “To a certain degree, they were much need ed,” senior Stuart Reid said. “I think a lot of people needed to re-evaluate the overall goals of the team and the hard work that is needed to achieve them.” After the No. IS Lions’ 7 p.m. non-league Lady booters hoping to end three-game skid By CHRISTINE L.

Penn State (8-3 overall, 2-1 Big Ten) will then travel to Ohio State for a 2:00 p.m. game on Sunday. “They were down,” Gorman said of his team after the Wisconsin loss. “We had some frank, honest discussion that went both ways. That pleased me. We are not dictatorial; we try to be cooperative and learn together.” While the Lion offense was invisible against Wisconsin, the Penn State attack has been potent this season. The top two Lion scorers also lead the Big Ten. Junior forward Travis Berger’s 24 points (10 goals, 4 assists) top the conference and Reid’s 21 points (8, 5) rank him second. Army (4-5-3, 1-1-1 Patriot League) will be the “We’re pretty banged up right now,” he said.

Gorman expects another battle from Army. “Coach Gorman’s Penn State teams have been well skilled, well prepared and a great group of skilled athletes,” Army Coach Joe Chiavaro said. “More than one or two guys on Penn State can hurt you. We just have to play a very solid game all the way around.” The Lions then return to league play against Ohio State (3-8-1, 1-2), which is led by forward Jeremy Sloan and his five goals. Penn State has two possibilities. They can either play the same way they did against Wis consin, or they can play their best soccer of the year. After the games this weekend, they will know how productive those discussions were.
