Another Busy Weekend for the Golden Eagles

Hey everyone,

Hopefully you had a chance to come out and see your Golden Eagles in action this weekend. The highlight was both the Men's and Women's Cross Country teams as they hosted the Brockport Invitational.

The men finished in second place while the women finished in First!!! Junior Brittany Streeter led the way for Brockport as she finished second overall while junior Caitlin McAneney finished third. For the men, junior Matt Avery finished second.

I had a lot of fun on Saturday cheering on the women's soccer team as they took on Nazereth. The Golden Eagles and the GoldenFlyers teamed up for "Golden Challange for a Pink Cure." The event's proceeds went to Strong Memorial Hospital for breast cancer research. And the best part is Brockport and Naz will make it an annual event!!

As for the game, well that was a fight too as the two teams tied 1-1 in double overtime. Jess VanAllen scored Brockport's goal, her third of the season.

Lastly, the men's soccer team lost their first game of the year 2-0 to nationally ranked #10 Hobart. Joe Marino still made 6 saves in the loss.


Now to our Elite Eagles!

Men - Matt Avery, Men's Cross Country - Avery led the men on Saturday at the Brockport invitational finishing second. He finished the 5-kilometer race in 15:54.

Women - Brittany Streeter, Women's Cross Country- Streeter finished second overall to help the women's team earn FIRST PLACE! She finished her race in 18:56.

Back to the nest again. Volleyball is the next team in action. They take on Cortland Tuesday night at 7:00 in Tuttle South. See ya there! and Go Golden Eagles.

P.S. - A quick Ellsworth shout out to Sue Hoffman, Assistant Athletic Director and Senior Woman Administrator at the College at Brockport, for winning the Longest Drive at the 89.1 the Point Open Golf Tournament Sunday. Way to Go!!!!!
