Scots Play Tough In Conference Home Opener

In the Scots first MIAA action at Alma College this season, they were defeated by the Knights of Calvin College by the score of 4-1. The young Scots battled the entire 90 minutes against the conference leading Knights showing the promise that the young team has and the strong foundation for the future Coach Chi Ly has set in place.

The Scots starting line up consisted of six sophomores, three freshmen and junior keeper Pam McCarthy, Flushing (Powers Catholic), whose strong play kept the Scots in the game.. The only goal for the Scots was scored in the second period by sophomore midfielder Rachel Comfort, Eastpoint (South Lake), on a corner kick.

The loss takes Alma's overall record to 0-5 on the season and 0-2 in league play. The Scots next will welcome Tri-State University to Alma on September 15 and will be in search of their first win of the young season. The game is scheduled to start at 4:00 p.m.

 

More than 100 Alma College students and staff traveled to destinations in Georgia, Tennessee, Florida and Mississippi for service projects during winter break in February 2008. Alternative Break service experiences continue to gain popularity on Alma College’s campus,” says Sallie Scheide, assistant director in the Center for Responsible Leadership.
