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.

The team this year, coached
by Gustavo Sampaio (senior
film and video production), has
evolved into a successful club
team. 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.

Booters face Army Cadets, Buckeyes
By DAVID COMER
Collegian Sports Writer
The men’s soccer team was lethargic and
played with little emotion during its 2-0 loss to
Wisconsin last Sunday, and Lion Coach Barry
Gorman wasn’t too happy.
So he and the rest of the soccer team talked.
They talked about what they needed to do to
avoid a repeat performance of their game Sun
day. 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.”

game tonight at Jeffrey Field with Army, they
will find out whether the discussions were
worthwhile. 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

Lions’ first obstacle. Penn State needed a Berg
er goal in overtime to beat the Cadets 1-0 last
year. 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.
