Brett Borm Anchors Lambuth's Defense in Goal
 
The Eagles  open their soccer season  Saturday at home against Harris-Stowe. Men's action begins at noon with the Lady Eagles playing  at 2 pm.
 
The Eagles advanced to the national tournament last year after being crowned the A.I.I. conference champion.  Lambuth lost to Southern Nazarene 2-1 in the first round.
 
Coach Paul Conway enters his seventh season with the Eagles. Lambuth enters the campaign ranked # 23 in the NAIA pre-season poll.
 
As always Coach Conway has put together a top recruiting class. Those players along with the returning players will have to play well as the Eagles lost a staple of talent. 
 
The Eagles will need to replace Ross Hayman, Chris Harrington, Adam Goldie, Paul Pinter and Wade Wadsworth. Wade will serve as a student assistant this season.
 
Coach Conway is excited about the season. " We had a great year last year but a lot of great players who played a lot of quality minutes are gone. We have some returning players who are capable of keeping us at that level. Some of our new players will play a lot as well. If we work hard we can be a national contender."
 
Lambuth's game against The University of Indianapolis scheduled Sunday in a tournament in Decatur, Al has been moved to Lambuth. The match begins at noon.
