HUSKY BOOTERS 1977 BLOOMSBURG STATE COLLEGE OUTLOOK The fortunes of the comparatively new sport of soccer at Bloomsburg State College continues to look up as Coach Lou Mingrone and his young, but experienced squad aim for their second successive winning season. Following an initial 4-5-1 Captain record two years ago, the John MIiihouse Husky boaters improved to a6-5-1 season last year. "With 15 lettermen back, nine others who saw action, a couple of good transfers, and some promising frosh, I think we'll have our best season to date," Mingrone ventured. Leading the returnees are: front line All-American Jim Mailey; All-Conference selectees Toby Rank, front line, and Tim Delp, halfback. Another halfback, John Millhouse, is the team captain. Other veterans include: Matt Aeschleman, Sam Barone, Horst Bernhard, Stephen Buch, Glenn Chestnut, Nick Ciliberto, Ken Curcio, Mark Fedele, Robert Fitzgerald, Tim Knoster, Ken Krick, John Lockwood, Rick Monaco, George Steele, Frank Good, Robert Hanson, Leo Quinn, and James Moyer. Outstanding frosh candidates include: Brian Johnson, Penncrest H.S.; Mike Layfield, Radnor H.S.; Greg Malloch, Cedar Crest H.S.; and Bryan Tarlecki, Upper Merion H .S. Mingrone will carry a squad of between 25 and 30 players. He will be assisted by student coach Neil Schmidt who has played out his eligibility. Scrimmages with Lebanon Valley and Keystone Junior College will precede the season's opener against University of Scranton on September 14 at BSC. ,, l[f ::::::,:,:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: = : ; ;==; = : : : :=: ===: = : : ~ : :==:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::111!

After a 20-year absence of the sport on campus, he initiated a club team in 1974 that posted a 2-4-1 record. In 1975 when soccer was named BSC's 14th varsity sport, Mingrone posted a respectable 4-5-1 mark with his young squad. He improved to a 6-5-1 record in 1976. A native of Dormont, Pennsylvania, Mingrone received his degrees from Slippery Rock State College, where he lettered in soccer, Ohio University, and Washington State University. Accommodating and in his coaching assignments, Bloomsburg is fortunate in having an individual of his calibre behind its soccer program.
