Soccer team takes 2nd city title Although not favored initially, the Raider soccer team captured its second consecutive city championship with a 7-0-3 league record. Under the coaching of Brother Alphonse LeBlanc and led by co-captains Eric Leingang and Ray Price, the team went undefeated in league play, and thus advanced to the city playoffs. Their first playoff game found them pitted against Country Day, a previous adversary who had battled Rummel to a tie. This time, however, the Raiders ended play on top of a 2-l score, with both scores coming from senior Tom Doonan. The city championship did not come easily, as Bonnabel proved hard to defeat. Numerous saves by Raider goalie Casey Geohegan kept the score tied l-l in the waning moments. The winning point came when Ray Price scored on a penalty kick from 12 yards out with only the Bonnabel goalie there to defend. Soccer 97
