Men's soccer drops season finale
Freshman goalkeeper Pat Horan made three saves in the contest, but the Ranger offense was relentless, putting up 12 shots to the Crusaders' four. Junior forward Jim Robertiello and sophomore midfielder Austin Gordon took a shot on goal each, while sophomore forward Joey Stellato's two shots led the team. Stellato's lone shot on goal was also the only for Susquehanna on the day. The game was a must-win for the Crusaders in order to keep their playoff hopes alive. Head Coach Jim Findlay expressed disappointment regarding how the season ended. "There were other conference games at home this season in which we played well and could have won, but it just wasn't meant to be," Findlay said. "To have a losing record and to not even get a chance to defend our Landmark title is something that is hard to accept." The coach expressed his plans to "work harder than ever" over the offseason, in an effort to return the team to playoff contention. Findlay said, "we have in my opinion, an abundance of talent, but unfortunately talent alone doesn't guarantee victory." The men's soccer team graduates five seniors this year. They end their season with an overall record of 7-10-1, 3-4 within the Landmark Conference. Co-captain defender Andrew Cordell Carey, of Fenwick Island, Del., will graduate with a degree in business administration. Carey played a total of 72 games in his Susquehanna career, totaling nine points, five of which came in his final season. Forward Dennis O'Hara of Salem, Va., will graduate with a degree in economics. O'Hara played 20 games in his time at Susquehanna and accounted for a goal and an assist in his career. Midfielder Ian Hutchison of Pottstown will graduate with a degree in business administration. In his four years with the team, Hutchison took 21 shots in 58 games. He has one career assist. Midfielder Ralph Larsen of McElhattan will graduate with a degree in earth and environmental sciences. In his 50 games, Larsen earned two goals to go along with two assists. Forward Andrew Cole of Wellsboro will also graduate with a degree in earth and environmental sciences. Over 28 games, Cole took three shots and recorded one goal. "I would like thank our seniors for their commitment and loyalty to the men's soccer program over the last four seasons," Head Coach Jim Findlay said of the graduating class. "Although this season was not as successful as their first three years, they at least had the opportunity to experience one Landmark Conference Championship in their time here," he said. "I wish them all the best and I know each of them will be very successful upon graduating from Susquehanna." |
