Double lead booters in
Parents Weekend triumph

In front of an enthusiastic
Parents' Weekend crowd last
Saturday, the Behrend soccer team
registered a 2-1 defeat over
Washington and Jefferson.
The Lions (3-7-1) got off to a
good start, coming up with three
solid scoring chances in the first
half, but came away empty
handed. Neither team was able to
find the net in the first half and
the two teams entered half-time
scoreless.
"At the half we (coaching staff) reminded
them of how to get scoring opportunities,
and in the half's first minute, they
scored."
Behrend came out strong in
the second half, as striker Yasser
Daoudi netted his fourth goal of
the season just 48 seconds into
the period.
After W&J tallied a goal of
their own in the half's 22nd
minute, Behrend's Jeff
Hockenberger scored the game
winner with just 9:39 remaining
in the match. The goal came
unassisted on a direct free kick
and was the sophomore's second
of the season.
Behrend Head Coach Herb
Lauffer was genuinely pleased
with his club's performance -
somewhat.
"The first five to six minutes
we had two to three good scoring
opportunities," said Lauffer.
"Then they (Behrend) reacted as
most teams would; it would just
be a matter of time until they
Score one for the
environment.
Recycle today for a
better tomorrow.

would score. They would be
trying to play every ball long and
the game plan lost its structure.
"At the half we (coaching
staff) reminded them of how to
get scoring opportunities, and in
the hairs first minute, they
scored".
In the second half, Lauffer saw
better performance from his
squad.
"There was a little more
purpose in the second half to our
game," said Lauffer. "To W&J's
credit, they came back nicely
(after the rust goal) and caught us
napping. Then we got the direct
free kick and Hock hit a beautiful
shot. It was a well placed,
powerful kick - one of those great
goals."
NOTES: The win was
Behrend's third of the year,
equaling the booters' win output
of last season with five games
remaining. Lauffer's optimistic at
this point, but as he says, "I
don't want to say at 3-7-1 that
they've exceeded my expectations,
but that's not true. With a little
more confidence and a little more
poise we could be 5-5-
1."....G0a1ie Phil Double came
up with his second pseudo
shutout of the year, keeping
W&J scoreless until he was taken
out at the half and replaced with
Les Spear, who allowed the lone
W&J goal.
