Soccer A Year Of Change With the addition of new Head Coach Jim Dyer and Assistant Greg DeNies, a young 1979 Eastern Soccer Team finished the season with a 6-6- 2 record. Joining the Warriors from UConn, Jim Dyer has had his hands full. As a whole, the team has only four players that ever played varsity soccer before. Due to the inexperience, some players have been forced to learn a lifetime of soccer in two months. Dyer says the season was a little disap- pointing but he was pleased with the six wins, the effort was there. Dyer considers himself hard to please and very demanding. He says If you don't set high standards you'll stay where you are. The four returning veterans, who lent leadership to the team, included Greg Andrulis, senior goalkeeper, Tom Cleary, senior midfielder, Jae Lor- enzet, senior back, and Steve Sutton, junior midfielder. Coach Dyer states that he was, Very happy with their job on and off the fieldfl Other veterans from last years J.V. Team included: Doug Aldrich, sophomore forward, Gardner Cahoon, sophomore forward, and William Kelley, soph- omore back. The newcomers to the Eastern Soccer Program features: Mark Bellucci, freshman midfielder, Scott Brine, freshman forward, and Frank Musser, freshman back, along with transfers: Joel Malinoski, soph- omore back, and Michael Tomanelli, junior forward. Wins over Hawthorne, Bryant, Western, Westfield, and S.M.U. high- lighted the season. While a disappointing loss to Eastern's highly overrat- ed rival, Central, came in overtime after 115 gruelling minutes of play. This game also turned out to be the last college game for seniors Greg Andrulis, Tom Cleary, Jae Lorenzet, and junior Steve Sutton because the Stonehill College game was cancelled. In an interview that appeared in the Campus Lantern, Assistant Coach Greg DeNies stated in reference to next years outlook for the young team, If they decide to stick with it, who knows how far they can go. As for next year, they fthe varsity teaml will be missing four valuable players. Head Coach Jim Dyer feels that recruiting needs to be done for next years team. if? e f - M ' ' K fi 'iikkdhsaiudamt KIPBADH
