That 2-5 loss was one of only six losses for the season. The loss of two strong team members to graduation last season, Matt Raymond and Matt Copeland, isn't expected to hurt the team. An influx of new players will help to fill the void. Rick Lucas, Greg Nammari, Jay Bowels, and Ed Whiteford have given us the depth that we need as a team. Team depth is one thing.
Individual competitiveness is something else.
The combination of the two, according to the men, is what makes the team solid. After keeping Oglethorpe University and the University of the South scoreless in the SCAC championships, Trinity claimed the last game of the championship, defeating DePauw 6-1. The men's team still has a long way to go on their quest to win the conference title. Their season begins at home on with an early morning match against Calvin College and an evening play off against Thomas More College March 4.
