Despite weeks of speculation
about the brawn and ability of
Fort Bragg’s lacrosse squad,
Elon’s lacrosse club, the Reptiles,
managed to discount all such talk
and crush Army by a 21-7
margin. The victory made five
weeks of fall training pay off and
gave the team reason to believe
the spring season could hold
much of the same promise.
Elon’s lacrosse program,
although a club, began its
workouts almost the day that
students began to file back in
from summer vacation.
The fall season is a time that
gives seasoned veterans a chance
to regroup and brush up on the
fundamentals. It is also a chance
for the entering freshman and
newcomers to see what the pro
gram is like and who they will be
playing with when the regular
spring season rolls around.
Coach George Taylor, a public
administration professor, said,
“We came out and put it to them.
In the first quarter we played our
game.” The Reptiles second-year
attackman Mark Bond scored on
ly 30 seconds into the first
quarter.
Elon scored five goals in the
opening quarter to lead at the end
of the period, 6-0. Middies Peter
Carlson, Seth Pomeroy and Brett
Howie contributed first-quarter
scores as did attackman Peter
Farrell and Bond, who added his
second goal for good measure.
Second-quarter action saw five
more Elon scores although the
Bragg team added four of their

“We played a very nice, con
sistent game, if we play like this
on Saturday we will not have any
trouble,” said soccer coach Steve
Ballard after the Christians hosted
Pembroke State last Thursday
afternoon. Elon defeated Pem
broke 6-1.
Ballard was speaking about the
game against Lenoir-Rhyne on
Saturday that was to add to the
Homecoming festivities.
Elon’s overall soccer record is
now 7-1-1 overall. The Christians
lead the Carolinas Conference
with a 4-0-1 mark and also are in
command of District 26 with a
5-0-1 record.
In the victory over Pembroke
Mike Wessels scored the first
goal eight minutes into the first
half and was assisted by Glenn
Gess. Gess then took his turn and
scored unassisted right before the
end of the first half.
The rain slowed down the se
cond half of the game, but Elon
kept scoring. Gary Krape scored
on a pass from the comer.
Wessels scored again, this time
unassisted. The last two goals
were scored by Mark Schriver.
Schriver was assisted by Joe
Nepay who crossed the ball.
Out of the eight shots on goal
that Pembroke took at the Elon
goal, only one resulted in a score.
This was a free kick, taken by
Gonzalo Suarez of Pembroke
State, after a yellow card was
given to Elon’s Scott LePage.
The other attempts were saved by
Elon goalie Kip Rackley.
Elon had 18 shots on the Pem
broke goal, only 6 were stopped
by the goalie. Several good at
tempts went over or hit the,
crossbar.
Ballard said after the game that
Elon was “in control.” “We
had a nice composing level and
we took advantage of our oppor
tunities.”
Saturday Ballard commented
that the game was not played like
he expected, “We were inconsis
tent. It was not one of our better
games, but we still won.”
“The first half was shaky, but
the second half we played much
better,” added Elon’s full back
Andy Scheafer.
Elon had 22 attempts at the
Lenoir-Rhyne goal, only three
however went in the net, while
nine were saved by L-R’s goalie.
Rackley stopped five of the six
shots that the Bears took at the
Elon goal.
In this game three yellow cards
were given, two to Elon and one
to Lenoir-Rhyne.
The Christians are off to the
Warren Wilson Tournament Oc
tober 12 and 13, and meet with
East Carolina on Oct. 16.
