EASTRIDGE
March
18,2006 - Eastridge was tied with Churchville-Chili
for 4th in the Monroe County-2 division last
year with a 6-8 record and at 6-11 over all.
Senior midfielder Kevin Kimber, and senior goalie
Mike Matteo were named to the MC-2 All League
list.
Seeded 5th on the Class B side
of the B/C tournament, the Lancers lost to Victor
in the first round (18-7) and finished in 5th.
Coach Jasson Jobson will have
his hands full this year after losing seventy percent
of his team to graduation. Sixteen of his twenty-three
players graduated last year including goalie Mike
Matteo (Fisher) and Kevin Kimber in midfield. Nick
Savine (Fisher), Brody Mapes and Brian Sutton and
Matt Francis are gone from the attack. Joe Staszczyck,
Luis Aloma, Brendan Bleier and Anthony Lacatena are
gone from defense. Mike Passantino, Josh Perkins,
Adam Hasenauer, Ricky Forero, Quinn Williams and
David Granito have left from midfield.
The cupboard is not quite empty
as senior midfielders Sean Sawyer and R.J. Pixley
return along with senior defenseman Germaine Davidson
and junior attackman Todd Horne. Coming up to fill
the voids are sophomore attackmen Brandon Moynihan
and Alex Austin, junior midfielder Nick Mormino and
sophomore middie Kevin Mahler. Sophomore defensive
midfielder moves up Nathan Wirth with junior defenseman
Jon Champion. Sophomore Eugene Ferrera takes over
in the goal.
Playing in the MC-2 division this
year, Coach Jobson wisely added some MC-3 games with
Arc/Oly, Brockport and Spencerport but it will be
a different season without the experience of Matteo
and the scoring power of last year’s offense.
With such a turnover, experience will be an issue
and this will most certainly be a building year for
the Lancers.
