With game 137 tomorrow, rivalry still strong
BY NOAH GOLDSTEIN
ff^ I "'he [Lafayette] college team
_L played its first game of the
season with Lehigh University and
had too much of a walkover to make
it an interesting match to the spectators," said an 1884 issue of T/ie
Lafayette.
Lafayette had won the home game
50-0. Although the game was not
interesting, a tradition of competition began that is still prevalent and
extends far beyond the football contest that many agree is not about to
go away anytime soon.
Tomorrow, 117 years after playing their first game against each
other, Lafayette will play game 137
against Lehigh. Despite losses in recent years, Lafayette is leading in the
overall r e c o r d with 71 wins to
Lehigh's 60, with five ties.
In the past, the Lafayette/Lehigh
football g a m e was e m o t i o n a l l y
charged, filled with bonfire rituals, the
i n f a m o u s d e s e c r a t i o n of the
goalposts, and wild tailgate parties.
However, things have changed since
1884.
The Lafayette/Lehigh rivalry has,
in the past, not been confined to the
football field. Some of the pranks
have proven to be more memorable
than the final score. Lehigh is said to
be the culprit ofa prank that involved
pulling out the Lafayette goalposts
and putting them at center field to
spell the letters " L U " for Lehigh
University in 1968. More recently,
it was suspected that Lehigh was responsible for chickens on the Quad
in 1999.
According to the November 20,
1998 issue of The Lcfcpette, Lafayette
students replaced copies ofLehigh's
student newspaper, The Brown and
White, with fake issues that said
Lehigh's president had invited the
State Police to all of the fraternity
houses to curb underage drinking
for the weekend, causing students to
protest in front of Lehigh's
president's house.
Joseph Marhefka '24, a former
Lafayette halfback, recalled when
games were played on March Field.
H e said he remembers crowds of
about 6,000, which overflowed the
wooden stands. During his tenure at
Lafayette, Marhefka said the Leopards won every gzune.
Gone are the dangerous and costly
attempts to jjemove goalposts, deface
college statues, and pre-game raids
on the two campuses.
Lafayette Director of Alumni Affjiirs John Leone explains this change
in social behavior with an analysis
of society. Leone said society has
become more complex and sophisti-
In 1999, chickens were dropped off on the Quad the week before the
Lafayette/Lehigh game.
cated. The legal drinking age is now
21 and pranks from what he called
"the good old days" are not socially
acceptable today and are a "huge challenge" to pull off. "We have to balance responsible behavior with a
Mardi Gras type of atmosphere," said
Leone.
Lehigh University Vice Provost for
Student Affairs John Smeaton said
that about 10 years ago, ajoint task
force developed regulations for the
game that would shift the focus from
dangerous and disorderly behavior to
the rivalr)' and the football game it-
self As a result, Smeaton said there
has been an 80 to 90 percent decrease
in conduct incidents at Lehigh.
Leone, who has worked at the college since 1980, said there are a few
things that instigate the Lafayette/
Lehigh rivalry. Leone said the institutions are similar in academic mission
and therefore they attract similar students. For example, both schools have
competitive undergraduate engineering programs. Leone also said that the
proximity of the two schools creates a
backyard "beat the guys down the

any students might be surprised to learn that Lafayette
has discretion over their constitutional rights because it is a private
institution.
James Hughes '05 said that he was
not aware of how his rights are limited.
Abby Weichert '05 was also unaware, "I think vft have all our constitutional ri^ts. We are all adulte

However, Jesse Nickerson '05
seemed to have some sense of the
limitations. "You sign away some of
your rights" when you come to college, he said.
To some degree, Lafayette grants
all constitutional rights, said Associate Professor of Government and

To the Editor:
I am writing in response to the
h e a d l i n e article that a p p e a r e d
in the N o v e m b e r 9'** issue of
this p a p e r . W h i l e I was glad
both that The Lafayette found rep r o d u c t i v e issues newsworthy
a n d that it took the time to add
editorial notes to refer to f c
m a l e students as " w o m e n , " not
the heavily quoted title, "girls,"
I a m concerned about the defenseless comparisons to other
institutions printed in that article a n d quite fascinated by
o u r concept of the term "conservative."
To start, I believe this article
n e e d e d to show s o m e a c t u a l
statistics, if they exist, a b o u t
our c a m p u s ' s behavior in comp a r i s o n to o t h e r i n s t i t u t i o n s .
While trying to give a feel for
the reproductive choices m a d e
on c a m p u s , t h e a r t i c l e p r e sented t h r e e speculative statements about how Lafayette
c o m p a r e s to o t h e r s c h o o l s .
Specifically, two of our Health
C e n t e r staff w e r e q u o t e d in
successive p a r a g r a p h s , one saying that the n u m b e r of pregnancies on campus was "average," the other "low." I wonder
what basis the Health C e n t e r
h a s for s u c h a c o m p a r i s o n ,
given that as w a s ailso stated,
some p r e g n a n t students choose
to avoid the health center all
together. As the campus poster
c a m p a i g n says, "perception is
n o t reality," and The Lafayette
could have done a better j o b of
presenting the reality of r e p r o ductive choice on c a m p u s .
O n a different note, I believe
that the opiriion stated in this
article gives too much credit to
the "conservative" environment on this campus. O n e could
safely say, or at least hope, that
t h e m a j o r i t y of c o l l e g e students are intelligent people

M u c h different than that in the
days of dormitories for m a r r i e d
couples, the current model for
both men and w o m e n is to establish a career a n d then a family, in that order. I d o not think
that this model applies in any
greater extent to our 'affluent",
"conservative" campus envir o n m e n t , but that p a r e n t h o o d
is an a d v e n t u r o u s challenge for
a n y college s t u d e n t , w h e t h e r
wealthy, poor, m a l e or female.
I would also like to c o m m e n t
on a seemingly c o n t r a d i c t o r y
view t h a t was expressed a b o u t
the conservative n a t u r e of our
s t u d e n t body. C o n s e r v a t i v e
views on sex a n d reproductive
freedom from my u n d e r s t a n d ing say, " n o " a n d " n o " . Sexual
acrivity is in no way a t a b o o on
our c a m p u s , and as this article
states, abortion is the choice of
preference. If we were staunch
conservatives, would we not be
s u p p o r t i v e of a w o m a n w h o
choices to carry a pregnancy to
term? W h a t conservative views
would be at work if a p r e g n a n t
w o m a n were to receive a negative response from the campus
community? Premarital sex is no
shocker to us. Possibly, the campus e n v i r o n m e n t is less conservative than image conscience.
T h e " c a m p u s c l i m a t e " seems to
be less a function of political or
moralistic conviction, but m o r e
t h e fear of b e i n g a s s o c i a t e d
with the wealth of stigmas that
our society attaches to single,
pregnant women.
I'd like to end with a shout out

Rights on private campuses

complicated and adversarial," and
would create, "conflicts with the personal sense of a college community."
Lafayette College President
Arthur Rothkopf said that the college needs to have a process that is
fair but that process does not need
to maintain all elements of constitutional due process.
Lafayette could also institute free
speech restrictions, Lennertz said,
but it would "be difficult because of
their [Lafayette's] mission." Lennertz
said that the college would be concerned with the practical consequences of limiting speech.
According to Rothkopf, the University of Pennsylvania once tried
such speech restrictions and experienced serious problems.
According to Lennertz, a student
cannot challenge the college in court
on the basis of an amendment in the
Bill of Rights, as the college has discretion in interpreting these amendments.
If a student felt that their constitutional rights were violated, they
would have to challenge the institution based on a violation of a Congressional law. Congressional laws
are laws passed by the state of Pennsylvania or Congress and their interpretation by a private institution may
be contested in court.
A court does not regularly accept
college cases, said Lennertz. "Colleges are complicated organizations.
What they [colleges] do is isolated
from the outside world," he said.
According to Lennertz, thejudges
do not decide many college cases for
two reasons. First, they are reluctant to determine what is wrong because the college is a complicated
organization. Second, colleges are
"set aside" from society to do as they
wish.
However, there are limitations on
the discretion given to private institutions and corporations.
In determining the limitations of
student rights, Lennertz said that age
is a consideration. He said that the
courts consider "vulnerability and
sensitivity that could occur." A court
may give a different opinion on a
court case if it occurred in high
school as opposed to in college because of the difference in maturity.
In the Bethel School Distric v. Frasier
case, a high school student was suspended for giving a speech that contained sexual metaphors. The suspension was upheld in federal district court. Lennertz stated that the
student could have won if he was in
a college setting because of the difference in maturity level of a high
school freshman as compared to a
college freshman.
There are three sources of obligation that colleges base the rights
they give to students, according to
Lennertz.
The first type is positive or legislative law, which is defined as "an
enactment that is passed by legislature," according to Lennertz. An
example is Title Nine, which requires "gender equality for schools
receiving federal funding," said Assistant Professor of Government
and Law Alexandra Cooper.
The second source is contractual
law, which is a promise by a college
to treat students fairly. For example,
Lennertz said that if a student pays
$32,000 to a college, the college
promises to give them an education.
Finally, the third source says that
an educational institution respects a
student's privacy and autonomy.
According to Lennertz, this is not a
legal obligation, like the first two
types, but a moral and ethical obligation for the college. According to
Lennertz, the college enforces these
types of obligations even if they are
not fond of it. H e added that
Lafayette might feel committed to
the free exchange of ideas.
Lennertz said he feels that the
word "rights" has been watered
down to "I want,'' explaining that
society uses the word "right" to
strengthen an argument. "It's now
a euphemism for 'give me,'" said
Lennertz.
Vice President for Human Resources and General Counsel Leslie
Muhlfelder would not comment on
the issue of student rights on the
record.
According to the Student Handbook, Lafayette gives students many
rights that are granted by the constitution including freedom of inquiry,
freedom of expression, and freedom
to organize and join associations to
promote common interests.

Leone
summarized
the
Lafayette/Lehigh rivalry as encompassing two parties, similar in many
ways, but with the same goal that
cannot be shared: a football victory.
"Playing LiChigh is a whole different level of intensity," said
Lafayette Athletic Director Bruce
McCutcheon. "That kind of intense feeling doesn't end with football," he said, adding that the rivalry
is intense in basketball, swimming,
land ti'ack'and field, along with other
' garne related activities.
"If you play long enough, you are
going to have your share of classic
contests," said Leone. "Over time,
the more you are involved with the
event, the more you appreciate the
tradition and the rivjilry," he said.
.According to Leone, Lafayette
and Lehigh alumni will gather in 47
locations around the country to
watch the football game Saturday.
Director of Public Safety Hugh
Harris said extra staff would be on

precautionary measure. Harris said
rampant vandalism has not occurred in a number of years, so statues are no longer cordoned off like
they used to be and there is not as

'Strai^e* professor removedfiDmplane
P O R T L A N D , Ore. (AP) An assistant professor at Oregon Health
& Science University was ordered
off a plane Sunday because another passenger thought he was
acting strange.
T h a n o s Tzounopoulos, headed
to a neuroscience meeting, was in
his seat awaiting takeoff when an
Alaska Airlines employee boarded
and asked him to leave.
T h e former Fulbright scholar,
who is originally from Greece, was
told to collect his things. As other
passengers watched, he got his
carry-on bag and the research he
was to deliver on the molecular
mechanisms of memory and left
the plane.
Nationwide, more than 20 passengers have been removed from
flights or stopped from boarding
because of complaints from other
passengers a b o u t their a p p e a r ances or behavior.
O n Sunday, according to a report prepared by an Alaska Airlines supervisor, Tzounopoulos
was removed from the flight after
an u n n a m e d passenger told a
flight attendant that the 32-yearold r e s e a r c h e r was " a c t i n g
strange" and the flight attendant
observed that he appeared "very
nervous" a n d "seemed uncomfortable."
Tzounopoulos, a permanent
U.S. resident, said he was reading
complex information and might
h a v e s t a r e d i n t o s p a c e as he
thought about it.
The pilot, whom Alaska Airlines
did not n a m e , ordered him to go
through additional security before being allowed to b o a r d another p l a n e .
By then, Tzounopolous would
have missed his p l a n n i n g meeting with colleagues. Instead of
catching a n o t h e r flight, he left
after a brief a r g u m e n t with the
airline supervisor. N o one questioned him, e x a m i n e d his bag,
called airport police or otherwise detained him.
"We have to protect o u r citizens by thinking a n d not reacting
to
fear
or
panic,"
T z o u n o p o u l o s said. " T h e s e are

J a c k Walsh, s p o k e s m a n Seattle-based Alaska Airlines, said
the airline is merely tightening

Freshmen plan guarding of campus; Class
fears raids by Lehigh students; THE GAME

BV K E N N E T H L E V I N E
T
he Lehigh game is drawing neai;
and freshmen spirits are ninning
liigh.
The announcement by David M.
I iOckett. assistant dean for student activities, that it would be unnecessary
for the fi-eshmen to guard the campus
against jx)tential raids by Lehigh students almost led to a riot Monday.
IxK-:kett's announcement did lead to
a class demonstration, a meeting l^etvveen Lockett and representatives of
the class, and the eventual organization of the class for the purpose of
guarding the campus.
These actions ofthe past few weeks
ailminated vvith the repulsion of at least
one Ixhigh raiding group late luesday
night. Both the president and the vice
president of tlie class commented favorably on the final results.
T h e announcement by Dean
Iux:kett brought little reaction at the
time that it was made save for a lew
mouth-to-mouth gripes by some freshmen. But when the frosh woke up
^'fc«lday moming andsawthc hallowed

began to mount
Lehigh Painters
According to a policeman hired by
Dean Lockett to guard the campus, the
painters must have done their job
around 6 p.m. Sunday night They
mentioned thai they were on duty until
5:30 p.m. and had checked the statue
just before leaving
The artistic destroyers had painted
" L e h i ^ " on the side of the statue in
their school colors.
The reaction by the frosh was immediate. Sgns were posted in the fi'eshman dormitories urging all to ccane to a
"meeting" Monday night. At dinner.
Dcming Cowies, '68, newly-elected
president of the class, improvised by
using a chair as a platform and proceeded to lead a discussion on possible
courses of action. Although the majority wanted to march on Dean Lockett's
house, it was decided to meet in ft-ont
of Easton Hall at 11 p.m. and start an
on-campus demonstraticMi.
At the meeting, attended by about
250 fitish, Cowles climbed onto a second story platform and, with a huge
megaphone, told the dass that a demonstration was forthcoming. Again,
many shouted that they wanted to go
to tlie dean's house, but Cowles, led by
the fi-eshman football team kept them
on campus.
The demonstratoi's marched fipom
the Delta Kappa Epsilon house to
Watson Hall with anti-Lehigh, antiLockett and pro-frosh cheers. The
group then chai^;ed on to the leopan.1
where the president spoke again. (Climbing on the^eopard's back, Cov\4es ux^jed
"on to Gates."
As the marchers reached Gates, the
gioup had swelled to neariy 300, accompanied by about 100 heckling upperclassmen. At this time a group of
about 50 freshmen chained for tlie gate
between Gates Hall and McKeen Dormitory in hopes of getting off campus.
This was the same group that had
wanted to demonstrate at Dean
Lockett's house, and they rushed the
gate witlT cries, "On to Lockett"
The fiieshman football team rushed
to the gate before thefixwhwho wanted
to leave got there. Joining hands, they
blocked the charge ofthe freshrtien and
successfiilly held them back. At this
point, Cowies mounted a garbage receptacle in the middle ofthe group and
urged a retreat. When thefix>shcharged
again, Cowles hit one over the head
wi^i his megaphone.
Somefi-eshmenmanaged to get past
the football team, but most were imsuccessfijl. With the urgbtigs of C>>wles
and thefi*eshmenwho didn't want to
(feraonstrate at the (tean's house, the
charge against the gate was stopped.
With the splitting ofthe class into two
factions, the demonstrators be^an to
break up, promising to guard the campus Tuesday night.
Tuesday afternoon the fi*eshman
president, vice president and others
met with Dean Lockett to see if they
could obtain pennission to guard.
Lockett. after saying thatfteshmenhad
never specifically been forbidden to
guard, aiTanged a guarding schedule
to take effect Tuesday night.
Tlie arrangements called for guarding six specific points on the campus
until Friday n i ^ t . ITiese areas were tlie
statue near Gates, the leopard by
Alumni Memorial Gymnasium, the library, the chapel, the freshman area,
and the Civil War statue on tlie hill leading to Easton Hall. Originally plans did
not Ciill for guarding the campus past
three a.m., but a wave of enthusiasm
brought volunteers to guard past that
hour.
Nearly all fix)sh showed up for assi^iments. During the early watch a cr
pulled up in the South College parking
lot and was immediately surrounded
by about 20 frosh. An identification
caid was produced by the driver but a
few suspicious frosh remained around
the car until it lefi. In another incident,

Also on Wednesday, a letter was receivedfiromLehigh expx^ssing regrets
for the painting of the Leopard. The
letter was signed by Stephen F.
Goldman, president of the class of
1966 at Lehigh. (See page 2 for the text
of the letter.)
Bodi cowls and Barry Fulks, vice
president of the class, expressed their
pleasure at the successful negotiations
with Dean Lockett. "The Dean has
been very cooperative with the fireshmen in respect to guarding the campus," Fulks said.

in a thick, glazed and salty
gravy that took away any flavor the veal could bring to the
dish.
The flounder, unfortunately,
was no better. Not only was it
undercooked, the filet was far
from fresh and its aftertaste
rendered it unpalatable.
It should be noted that they
took the flounder back and did
not charge for us for it. I did
appreciate the establishment's
attitude, being very polite about
the matter.
On a lighter note, the vegetables and baked potatoes were
well worth the while, but hardly
made up for the unimpressive
main courses.
Dessert was an entirely different story. Our server presented
us with a tray consisting of a
dozen or so dessert selections.
We ordered a cheesecake
topped with pecans and chocolate and a homemade pie, filled
with fresh cranberries and nuts.
We both enjoyed dessert thoroughly; the cheesecake and pie
both being fresh and bursting
with flavor.
Overall, The Sage Inn makes
a decent attempt at being a fine
restaurant, but at best achieves
the standing of a fancy diner.

Science and religion not an Either/Or choice for Miller
BYJESS WEISSUTZ
S
cience apd religion. Larry
Miller's exhibit, Either/Or, explores these two different models of
the universe.
Miller wants to get rid ofthe need
for specific meaning. He says art
should allow one to experience things
in their mind while at the same time
make one really use their mind. He
believes that art is a sensory experience, and that once one is able to use
his oi- her senses the person is free to
experience things beyond the traditional boundaries.
"Conceptual art does for the mind
what Cubism did for the eye," said
Miller.
According to Miller, the functions
of art must be interpreted and exf>erienced in different ways. He feels
one must take art into ones life in a
sensitive manner. He says that people
must be aware of the everyday
beauty around them.
Miller's work follows the Fluxus
movement of the 1960's, which incorporates Zen notions. Miller considers his work a display of the use
of many mediums combined together.
"'Artists throughout human history
provide a hardcopy printout of the
human mind," said Miller. He believes that as an artist he is related to
the cave painters, the Egyptians, and
primitive tribes.
As an artist of the 21" century, the
materials available to him today are
different than those available to artists in the past. Still, Miller's interests
are the same as ancestoral artists in
PHoros BV ADAM BL'tiHw.ALrtH
Pictured above is "Genomic License No. 7," an example of how
Larry Miller uses science in his work. Miller also uses religious
symbolism in his work as seen in the picture at right.
terms of experiences such as food,
shelter, clothing and basic human interests.
Miller creates ambiguous pieces
because he wants people to rethink
what they are familiar with atnd what
they already know.
One of Miller's pieces that centers on religion is a piece that requires
the viewer to kneel down on a pulpit.
Touch one side of the piece and nothing happens, but if both sides ofthe
piece are touched causing their arms
to be outstretched to both sides of
their body, a cross lights up. This
forces the viewer to take the position of sacrifice.
Many of Miller's pieces are involved with the idea of DNA. To
Miller it is clear that we do not own
our DNA. His idea was to copyright
DNA, which he claims is a serious
question and highly unlikely to ever
happen. Even .so, he ffxuseshis work
on examining the ideas of owning
DNA, who we are, and what we are.
Additionally, Miller questions the
idea of immortality. He contrasts
the ideas of how a human can
contine living, by combining science and religious ideas of immortality
Another piece, "Genomic License No. 6," uses both religion
and science. This is of Miller's
hands modeled to replicate a piece
done by Rodin. T h e hands contain
pieces of Miller's actual fingernails,
which provide a sample of DNA.
T h e hands are pressed palms together, in the traditional prayer position.
An interesting piece, "Genomic
License No. 7," is one where Miller
has two pictures on a canvas. One
is of a male, and the other is of a
female. There is a vv^hite space in
place of the facial features of the
female. This piece explores the idea
of switching male and female DNA.
Miller will examine other issues
in his FluxConcert on November
16. In his concert, the audience is
not restricted to usingjust to using
a single sense. T h e arts that will be
represented in this concert include

down.
Overall. Lehigh's rushing attack is not one of the best in the
Patriot League, as they have yet to
really find a horse to carry the ball
20+ times a game since they lost
Ron Jean to graduation two years
ago.
The Mountain Hawks have
used a variety of backs to pick up
the slack with sophomore Jermaine
Pugh getting most of the v/ork with
91 carries for 406 yards and two
touchdowns.
Lehigh sophomore running
back David Wilson has also seen
some time this year and has fared
better averaging 4.6 per carry. Together, they have averaged 92
yards per game although Wilson
has played in just five games.
W^ilson got the bulk ofthe work
last season and he carried the ball
15 times for 83 yards against
Lafayette.
Lafayette has struggled against
the run this season, but completely
shut down any rush attack of
Georgetown's as their top two runners totalled just 29 yards on 16 carries. Overall, the Hoyas mustered
just 24 yards on 25 carries on the
day.
Sophomore Theo Moss, who
has broken out this year with 36
tackles and eight sacks, anchors the
Lehigh defensive line. T h e linebacker core is solid, just as it has
been in past years, and is led by
Tom McGeoy '04, Mike Taggart
'04, and Morris Taylor '02. That
trio has combined to make 98 tackles and three sacks this season.
McGeoy was a force to be reckoned with against Bucknell as he
had 11 tackles and.an interception
returned for a touchdown. His efforts earned him Patriot League
Defensive Player of the Week
Honors.
However, it is the secondary
that makes the Lehigh defense as
strong as it is. Matt Salvaterra '03
is back again after a huge game
against Lafayette last year and has
had another solid season. H e is second on the team with 48 tackles
and leads the team with six broken
up passes.
Both he and defensive back
Abdul Byron '02 love to hit.
Byron leads the team with 58 tackles. It will be up to these two players to not let sophomore quarterback Marko Glavic have a strong
day and stop Leopard freshman
running back JoeMcCourt from a
huge run.
Leopard John Weyrauch '04
should draw considerable attention and, despite nagging injuries,
wide receiver Andrew May '02 is
listed as probable for the game.
Tight end Stewart Kupfer '02 has
had another solid season as he is
second on the team in receptions
and is dangerous in the red zone.
Overall, shutting down the
run and keeping Hall in check will
be a key for the Leopards. If the
defense can do that, the offense
should be able to put some points
on the board as they have done
all season. A mistake-free game
could be enough for Lafayette to
get their first win against Lehigh
since 1994.
Game time is set for 12:37pm
at Goodman Stadium. Lafayette
leads in the all-time series 71-60-5.

Your cooperation is requested and expected to make

hen one thinks ofa student-athlete at Lafayette College,junior
Ashley Wesmiller is likely to come to
mind. As the starting goalie of tlie
women's soccer team her freshman
year, Wesmiller started every game for
the Leopai'ds.
Tliis year was a little different having more than one goalie on the squad.
'1 wasn't sure what my role was going
to be on the team this year because I
went ijbroad in the spring last year, but
I trained hard all summer and came
back and me and our other goalie split
most of the games," said Wesmiller.
Wesmiller spent most of the season splitting time in goal wdth sophomore Marissa Mullins, but led the Leopards in their final regular season game
against Holy Cross in which the team
clinched a toumament bertli and the
tournament semifinal against Navy.
Wesmiller was named the 2000
Patriot League Scholar Athlete of the
Year for excellence in botli the classroom and on the field.
lliese accolades did not make it
hard for Head Coach Wayne Miller to
decide that Wesmiller would be a prime
candidate for one of the captains of
the 2001 soccer team. "She relates very
well to her teammates and she's a very
hiuxl worker. It's like having a coach on
the field." said Miller.

The soccer team had a successful
season closing it out with a record of
11-8, along with the appearance in the
Patriot League
Tournament.
Wesmiller's strong play at goal had a lot
to do with the success ofthe team this
year. "We were really excited coming
into the season. Although the numbers are the same as last year, this year
we won four league games, which put
us into the toumament which was the
goal for the season," said Wesmiller.
In the first round of the Patriot
League Tournament, the Leopards
faced a tough Navy squad, which they
lost to 1-0 in overtime. 'Although we
lost to Navy, Ashley came up very big
in the game. She stayed calm and Relaxed," said Miller.
Wesmiller came up big in several
other games this season including conference wins against Lehigh and Holy
Cross. "'There were so many great
moments this year. I think for me personally, it was beating Lehigh because
my best friend plays for the team and
we lost to them twite last year in overtime. Beating Holy Cross was also exciting because it was the last game of
the season to put us into the tournament," said Wesmiller.
As for next season, Wesmiller's
senior year. Miller has high ex|X'ctations. "Our goal fbr next season is to
win the championship and .Ashley's senior leadership will help a lot." stated
Miller.

F
riday night's 1-1 draw with
archrival Lehigh was a microcosm ofthe Lafayette Men's Soccer
Team's season. While the Leopards
jumped out to a quick start and
batded throughout, they just could
not muster the necessary offensive
potency to register a victory.
It was obvious that Lafayette
had been waiting for this game for a
long time. The painful memories of
last year's Patriot League final, in
which Lehigh tied the game with less
than ten seconds remaining in regulation and then went on the win in
overtime, were still fresh in the minds
of t\t Leopards. And although Friday night's game had no league implications, (Lafayette had already
For the rest of the contest, both
teams battled, but neither could register another goal. Regulation came
to a close with the score locked at
one, and overtime ended in similar
fashion. After 120 minutes of play,
the game finally ended in a 1-1 tie.
The tie moved the Leopards
overall record to 8-4-5 and 1-3-3 in
Patriot League action. But more importantly, it marked the final game in
Lafayette's 2001 campaign, a season
that started off strong, but ended in
disappointment.
After beginning the year losing
only one of their first seven games, it
appeared that the Leopards were in
for another successful season. With
an impressive 5-1-1 record, Lafayette
entered league play brimming with
confidence and peaking at the right
time.
"Every game and every practice, we
worked hard and battled."

lieen mathematically eliminated from
the Patriot League Tournament),
there was so much to play for. After
all, it was Lehigh.
From the opening whistle, the
Leopards gained the upper hand.
They dictated play for most of the
half and created several decent scoring opportunities in the process.
1 heir hard work and intensity finally
paid off in the 3P' minute when senior co-captain Keith Evans crossed
a service from the left wing onto the
head of sophomore forward Marco
Lukin, who directed it into the back
ofthe net. The goal was Lukin's first
of the year and gave the Leopards
the 1-0 advantage.
However, Lafayette's lead was
short-lived. No more than eleven
minutes later, the Mountain Hawks
struck back with a goal of their own,
when senior co-captain Colin
Marshall capitalized on a direct kick
from the top ofthe box for the equal-

However, from that point on.
the Leopards registered a mere
three wins in ten games. More importantly, only one of the wins came
in conference play. A severe lack
of offense proved.the biggest problem for Lafayette, who managed
only four goals total in seven Patriot League games. Even with the
solid defensive play of the Leopards, it is extremely difficult to win
games without scoring on offense.
And that is exactly what the Leopards discovered.
Although the Leopards failed
to make the Patriot League Tournament this season. Head Coach
Dennis Bohn said the amoimt of
effort the team put forth should not
be ignored.
Much of this increased effort
can be attributed to Bohn, who now
has a full seaison of collegiate head
coaching under his belt. When
asked what he was most happy with
for this season, Bohn pointed to
the effort level without hesitation,
"Every game and every practice,
we worked hard and battled."
When asked what he will miss most
about this 2001 squad, Bohn said,
"The dedication and passion ofthis
team I will always remember." And
in regards to the scoring inefficiency. Coach commented, "Our
main focus for this year's recruiting class is attacking players."

"Our team has an incredible

the 18 [yard fine], a group of players were battling and the Navy
player went down," said H e a d
Coach Wayne Miller. "It's hard to
say whether or not that was a scoring chance, but the official obviously must have seen something."
Just like that, Lafayette's upset bid
was squelched.
For a team to be awarded a
penalty kick the call must come
from inside the 18-yard box. The
officials often give the defensive
team the benefit ofthe doubt, considering a ball near the edge of the
box outside of offensive shooting
range, and not awarding a penalty
kick. In this instance, the call fell in
Navy's favor.
"It was a heartbreaking game,
just a tough loss," said Miller. "We
worked hard all year, our goal was
to make it into this tournament."
"I still think this was a great experience for our team, and it prepares
us for next year," he added.
Junior forward Emily Myers
said, despite the.outcome, "It was
one ofthe best games we've played
all season, we played strong all 90
minutes."
