WENHAM, MA - The Gordon College men's soccer homecoming match scheduled for 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, October 6, 2007, has been altered due to a player personnel shortage on the part of scheduled opponent Salve Regina University. The Fighting Scots will, however, host an Alumni Match at 2:30 p.m. on The Quad on the campus of Gordon College.
Any Alumni who would like to participate in the contest should contact Joe Hakes via email at Joe.Hakes
gordon.edu.
The Fighting Scots, currently 5-5-1 overall and 4-1-1 in The Commonwealth Coast Conference (TCCC) will not earn a win, nor will Salve Regina be saddled with a loss, due to the forfeit; the NCAA rules that if a contest is forfeited prior to being played it is a "no contest".
GC will play its next home match on Wednesday, October 3, 2007 against Colby-Sawyer College on The Quad at 3:30 p.m. and will battle North Shore rival Endicott College in Beverly on Tuesday October 9, 2007.
