York soccer team finsihes season strong, earns honors
12/15/11
Penn State York's men's soccer team once again finished strong with an 8-2 conference record and the regular season championship. For the past five seasons the team has consistently been among the teams to beat in the Penn State University Athletic Conference (PSUAC).
Conference play proved to be challenging as the Lions earned hard fought victories on the road at Penn State Hazleton and Penn State Brandywine before yielding their only conference loss at rival Penn College. Regular season success was rewarded with the number one seed in the PSUAC tournament. After taking a commanding 2-0 lead at home, York gave up three unanswered goals, two by the way of penalty kicks, and lost their first home match and thus their season came to an early and untimely end.
