Varsity Soccer Row 1: Left to Right: R. Andrade, K. Hodges, R. Blaustein, E. R. Schlinger, S. Robinson Row 2 Coach Forman, W. Walsh, M. Gomez, D. Hunter, 1. Beam, J. Kregel, A. Torres It was a year for the Varsity Soccer team, this season as Amityville made it to the playoffs for the first time in six years. The team was ably coached by Mr. Ralph Forman. The team was strong in both ability and spirit and the season was off the a great start. However, fate soon took over, and the team began losing players to injuries. At one time the team was without five of its eleven starters. But luckily, the team had considerable depth in its ranks and was able to carry on. By the end of league season the team was back to full strength, and rallied to finish strongly. The squad, with a 9-5-2 record for the season, finished third in their league - a notable achievement since they had moved up from League V to League IV. On top of this, and apart from making the playoffs, in the second round the team drew l-l with the eventual league winners, Kings Par, and beat second place Smithtown West 1-0. The team was fortunate in having fine defensive men like Steve Robinson, Peter Schmitt, and Jim Kregel, and an outstanding goalie, Keith Little. Steve Rem.bert worked extremely well for the team mid-Held, as did Rob Conwell and Tony Torres up-front. The team directed its attack through its two wings Richie Williams and Wayne Walsh, however the squad lacked the high scoring center. In the first round of the County Playoffs, Amity defeated Hauppauge in a very close struggle - the game was into its second period of sudden death overtime and still tied a l-1, when Renaldo Andradel slammed the winner home in the nets. The second game in the playoffs vs. Bellport proved to be just as intense. The score was 0-0 when the teams again went into sudden death overtime. However this time the break went the other way. Bellport scored off a direct penalty kick and the game was over. By vote of the team members, Peter Schmitt, Brian O'Donovan and Steve Robinson were elected the team captains. It was a season of ups and downs but to place third in League lV, put five men on the All Star team, and to play in the county playoffs was a great accomplishment.
