PENN STATE CLAIMS
RECORD FOR SOCCER

STATE COLLEGE. Pa, December -.
1t is doubtful if any. other college
or university in the United States
can match the record that has Just
been completed by the soccer team
at Penn State. When the 1928 season
was closed with a T-to-l victory for
the Nittany Lions over Lehigh, il mark
J the fifth consecutive season without
defeat.
But that IS not all. With the ex-
ception Of one defeat. during the s.
A. T. C. period IN the fall Of 1918,
Penn State has not lost a soccer game
since 1913. u stretch of nine years
During that period such teams as
L@high. Syracuse. Lafayette, Navy,
Swar thmore. Havcrford the Univer-
Gity Of Toronto and many others have
been met both at home and on foreign
fields.
Yet even more startling. perhaps. is
the fact that in the past five years
have directed the Nittany hooters
through undefeated seasons. The
season just ended, probably the most
successful of all. saw Lester Long
hurst a student who had completed
his three wears on the team, develop
a smooth working machine that de-
feated Lafayette, Syracuse, Navy and
Lehigh, and tied Toronto.
Only three members of this years
team are lost by graduation, 50 that
prospects for next fall are exceed
ingly bright for a continuation of
the winning streak.
Penn State followers believe that
the great record that has been run
up entities the team to consideration
for membership in the intercollegiate
league.
