Lions soccer team
finishes disappointing
season with road loss to
Buffalo University
by Ken Kurtz
Collegian Staff Writer
A 4-1 loss last Wednesday to
the University of Buffalo (NY),
left the Behrend soccer squad with
a fmal record of 3-11-4.
Head coach, Herb Lauffer said,
"I don't think (our record) is an
accurate indication of the team's
ability and how well they
played."
Lauffer could not recall a
game in which his team played
poorly for the duration. He said
there were good points in each
game, but they weren't often
sustained for the full 90 minutes
of play.
"We were not as consistent as
we should have been. A mental
or physical mistake would cost
us a goal, and we couldn't
recover," Lauffer explained.
He added that Behrend had a
very tough schedule, but he
knows the competition is
necessary if the team is to get
better.

The coach felt there were a lot
of players who contributed and
worked hard for the team. They
struggled with defeat just as any
team does, but were able to keep
their confidence up.
Looking towards next year and
a new season, Lauffer said, "We
have to take a real hard look at
personnel, and do our best at
making sure we don't replicate
this season as far as our record is
concerned."
