Microsoft’s advances—advances which
Netscape has yet to obtain,” expressed
McMurty.
The service of e-mail, for both
faculty and students, came to be some
what of a problem last year in the way of
security and conFidentiality. Tliis year,
Monireat has switched e-mail services to
Eudora, an e-mail system in which users
obtain e-mail on their own personal disk.
“The problem we had last year with
e-mail, was that too many people were
logging into other accounts because the
e-mail system was on the hard drives.
We’ve switched e-mail systems this year
to Eudora (which can only be opened on
a program disk), which is great because
students and faculty can obtain their e-
niail and then read it later. No one can
get a hold of your e-mail account because
you have your own e-mail disk with you.
with your own iiersonal password,”
McDanel said.
Upgrading Monireat’s computer lab
with tlie latest computer software isn’t the
only facelift that students and faculty are
now seeing—the lab has been totally
remodeled to house offices for Academic
Computing and an office for the lab’s
work-study students. This year. Academic
Computing has hired five work-sludy
students to work in the lab: Alex
Ceivanles, Eddie Karriker, John Langcr.
Jason Smith and Jason Single.

Cavaliers Manhandle Panthers
By Chri.stiau Malone
Last Friday, the Montreal men’s
soccer team pasted LaGrange 6-1 at home
behind Eric Burton’s hat trick. The next
day, they defeated Union 3-2 in a great
match, improving to 5-4 on the season.
The Cavaliers came out with a
vengeance against LaGrange, taking
control early and dictating the flow of the
game. Sean Julien gave the Cavs a 1-0
lead five minutes into the game with his
first goal of the season, a sliding kick
over the head of Panther goalie Brett
Trizzino.
In the 28th minute, Scott Kilgore
broke away from two defenders and
nailed a blast into the far lower right
comer of the goal, his team-leading
eighth of the season.
Then Eric Burton took over. In the
35th minute, the redshirt freshman made
it 3-0 with an impressive side bicycle
kick into the back of the net. Five
minutes later, his jump-kick blast went
untouched into the Panther net.

The Women’s Soccer team record is
3-4. On Friday the team whipped
Lagrange witli a final score of 3-0.
Freshman Lisa Minus exclaimed, “It was
a good win because we started off with
only nine players and we held them.”
The girls w'ere on a tliree win streak until
their disappointing 3-1 loss to Union.
The team continues to have high
expectations for this season.
Coach John Garvilla commented, “1
expect them to have fun, do well aca
demically and athletically. This is a
young team. They haven’t really estab
lished their identity. I’m waiting to see
where the Lord will lake us.” He added,
“They are very cohesive, get along w'ell,
and desire lo learn. 1 e.xpect a lot of goals
(0 be scored.”
With a sizable lead, coach John
Garvilla emptied his bench and rested
several of his starters for most of the
duration.
In the second half, Jason Gucngrich
scored on a penally kick to extend it lo 5-
1. Burton later finished off the scoring
w ith his sixtli goal of the season.
Goalies Ehren Killien and Brian
Lelendre stopped nearly everything that
came their way, continuing to be a two-
headed monster in goal.
On Saturday, the Cavaliers traveled
to Union, where they played what
Gaiv'illa called, “The best game I’ve seen
in my two years here,” defeating a team
that had destroyed them 11-0 last year.
Kilgore, Burton, and Kerwin Francois
scored big goals for the Cavaliers, and
Killien and Lete.’idre continued their
awesome goalkeeping,
The Cavaliers are playing near their
peak right now. Garvilla staled, “1 am as
proud as I can be with these teams,
especially Ihc guys. I can’t say enough
about the way they’ve played.”
