Tough Loss to
Rival Roberts Wesleyan, 1-0
Box Score
Houghton,
N.Y.
–
The
Highlanders came out fighting but in the end came up short versus rival Roberts
Wesleyan. Before tonight’s contest, Houghton honored the Senior Highlanders of
the class of 2007 for their hard work on and off the field and their commitment
to the program. These Senior Highlanders will definitely be missed and best of
wishes to them in their new endeavors. The Senior Highlanders who were
recognized tonight in alphabetical order by last name were
Pat King (Albion, NY),
Ben Loos (Angola, NY),
Dan Miller (Stanley, NY),
Vince Wagner (Egg Harbor, NJ), and
Chad Wakeman (Easton, PA).
The
Highlanders are now 4-9-2 for the season and 2-1-1 in the AMC North Conference.
The Highlanders look to better their AMC record versus Notre Dame College on
Saturday, October 28th at South Euclid, Ohio at 1:00PM.
Houghton College
has deep
and
solid
roots in the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics, where our
teams use their commitment to excellence, both on the field-of-play
and
in the classroom, as a platform for their strong and
unique
emphasis on Sports Ministry. Their goal is to make a difference
for the Kingdom
on campus, in Allegany County,
in the Northeast and
around
the world.
Houghton is one of only 13 institutions who have been hand-selected
by the NAIA to serve as "Champions of Character" Program Centers, opening the door
for Houghton to be a leader,
both in the Northeast and
nationally, in character education.
Through hands-on,
innovative community outreach initiatives, Houghton coaches and
student-athletes
are working together to change the culture of sport and
to change our culture through sport.
