Soccer Outlook • 1980
The uncertainty of a rebuilding season, along with cautious
optimism, is present as soccer enters its sixth season at
Bloomsburg State College. Eight of the eleven starters have
graduated leaving Coach Lou Mingrone with a lot of holes to
f i11.
The initial campaign in 1975 saw the booters post a 4-5-1
mark and the very next season, 1976, BSC's first winning
season at 6-5-1. A Pennsylvania Conference EasYern Division
championship and an ECAC tournament bid came along with
a 10-1 record in 1977, followed by a 13-1 season, a PC eastern
division co-championship and an NCAA Division II tournament invite in 1978.
Last season the Huskies compiled an impressive record of
13-1, another PC eastern division co-championship and an
ECAC Southern Regional title. The booters outscored their
opponents last season by a 74-10 margin while giving up only
.71 goals per game. At season's end they were rated 8th in the
NCAA Division II rankings.
In the five previous seasons BSC has a combined win-loss
record of 44-15-2. With all this past success and numerous
state, regional and national tournaments to their credit, the
Huskies are looking forward to future post season action and
continued good fortune.
Leading the list of returnees are tri-captains, Toby Rank,
three-time All Pennsylvania Conference with a career 22
goals and 13 assists; midfielder Brian Farrell, All
Pennsylvania Conference in 1979; and goalie Greg Malloch,
who had a per game average of .71 goals scored against him.
Other returners include: strikers-Tom Bloom, Ron
Mattern, Scott McNulty, Mark Rinkus, Bill Sypawka;
midfielders-Bill Bent, Greg Kane, Ken Neubeck, Luke
Sakalosky; fullbacks-Mike Connell, Jeff Ehring, Gary
Gallagher, Dave Mullican, Roger Stetler, Mike Wessner;
goalie-Craig Rotile.
Outstanding first year candidates include Mike Bartoszek,
Fred Dudak, Terry Gross, Phil Hawkins, Rodney Koch, Fred
McCaffrey, Lou Mickley, Joe Mitchell, Ed Secoges, Pete
Sobrinski, Dave Waterman, Steve Whaley.
Transfers preparing for the 1981 season are: Jim Byrne,
Mike Keller, and Eric Pettis.
Former Husky standouts Tim Knoster and Jim Mailey will
serve as assistant coach and student assistant respectively,
to aid Mingrone with the squad of 30-35 players in 1980.

Head Coach
DR. LOUIS MINGRONE, professor of biology, was
instrumental in the return of soccer as a varsity
sport at BSC four years ago. After a 20-year
absence of the sport on campus, he initiated a
club 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. In 1977 the Huskies posted a 10-1
season becoming the Pennsylvania Conference eastern division
champions. BSC lost to Lock Haven, Division Ill National champions
in the State Conference Championship game, 1-0: In 1978 the boaters
posted an 11-1 record and were co-champions in the eastern division
of the Pennsylvania Conference, and became the ECAC southern
regional champions while being rated 8th in the nation, at season end,
among NCAA Division II schools.
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.
Mingrone is very knowledgeable and accommodating in his
coaching assignments. Bloomsburg is very fortunate in having an
individual of his calibre behind its soccer program.
