On
Wednesday
night Laingsburg ended their regular season at Dansville. It was
the
Aggies' senior night and the Wolfpack hoped play spoiler.
Unfortunately
for Laingsburg it didn't end up that way. In a game marred by free
kicks
and yellow cards Dansville crushed the Wolfpack 4-0. Dansville
opened up
the scoring 20 minutes into the game when Eric Soderberg cleaned up a
mad
scramble off a corner kick in the box. Laingsburg goalie, Drew
Jones,
saved the first attempt, but after 3 failed clearing attempts by the
Laingsburg
defense Soderberg easily finshed a ball that came right to his foot.
Laingsburg
controlled most of the play after the goal. They outshot the
Aggies 9-5
in the first half. The second half belonged to the Aggies,
however, and
Laingsburg never made any serious threats to Dansville keeper, Aaron
Hoefling.
Eric Soderberg got his second goal of the night when Warren
Witchell drew
his 4th free kick of the night. The only differnce this time was that
it was in
the box. Soderberg's PK put the Aggies up 2-0. Jay Witchell iced
the game
when he scored off a corner kick. Jones came charging at the
curving ball
which quickly sailed over his head and into the net. Moments
later Ethan
Gurecki added a goal when he placed a ball over Jones and ended his
night.
Dibert came into releive Jones with 20 minutes left to play.
Dansville had a couple of more opportunities to add to their
lead, but
Dibert kept the rest of their shots out. Laingsburg never really
threatened in the second half and finished with only 1 seond half shot
compared
to Dansville's 12. Laingsburg ended the season at 4-10-3.

On
Tuesday night
Laingsburg travelled to Ithaca to face the Yellowjackets in a rematch
of the
first game of the season. In the first game Ithaca scored with 3
seconds
left to beat the Pack 2-1. In that game Jordan Most added the
late goal
off a give and go with Tyler Gross on the South end of the field.
This
game started where that one left off. Most used his teammate,
Gross,
again in a play that was eerily similar to the one that gave the
Yellowjackets
a win in their first meeting. Most passed to Gross at the 18 and
when 2
defenders played the ball Gross made them pay by leading a pass back to
Most
who was wide open at the six. Pete Dibert made 7 saves for the
Wolfpack
and Chris Anderson made 8 saves for the Yellowjackets to keep the game
at 1-0
deadlock until 10 minutes left to play. Jordan Most returned the
favor by
passing the ball to Tyler Gross, who put a shot right on Pete Dibert's
chest.
Dibert seemed to bobble the ball and then knocked it in to his
own net.
The Wolfpack cut into the lead when Andy Kubsch scored on a free
kick
with 7 minutes left to play. But Ithaca iced it when moments later a
low shot
by Zach Whipple seemed to catch Dibert by surprise and find its way to
the back
post. Laingsburg fell to 4-9-3.
