The RetrIever Weekly 04.29.08 SPORTS 27 Tennis falls in America East Tournament play Zak Bratcher SENIOR STAFF WRITER Two spectacular UMBC seasons came to unfortunate fi nales this past weekend as the men’s and women’s tennis teams both suffered defeats to Binghamton University in the America East Conference Tournament at Yale Tennis Center in New Haven, Conn. The No. 2-seeded Retriever men, hoping to defend last year’s AEC title, fi nished as runner up in the conference tournament, defeating No. 3 Stony Brook, 4-3, in the semifi nal round on Saturday afternoon, but losing in the championship game to the No. 1-seeded Bearcats, 4-3, on Sunday. The UMBC women, also a 2-seed, suffered a similar 4-3 defeat at the hands of No. 3 Binghamton in the semifi nals on Saturday. After conceding the doubles point to the Bearcats in the championship game, UMBC sophomore Chris Meyer, senior Irfan Shamasdin, and senior Fernando Ferreira each won singles matches at the fi rst, third, and sixth positions, respectively, setting up a critical match at the fi fth singles position. Retriever sophomore Fredi Voorman, playing at No. 5, held a 5-3 advantage in the third and deciding set. However, Binghamton freshman Arnev Jain, who was awarded Most Outstanding Player of the tournament, valiantly fought back, winning four straight games to capture the set and the match 4-6, 7-6, 7-5. The AEC title was Binghamton’s fourth in the past six years. On Saturday, the UMBC women’s doubles pairings of freshmen Ana Mungo and Emily Mannix and of juniors Joy Adewumi and Cornelia Carapcea both earned victories over their Bearcat counterparts, garnering the doubles point for the Retrievers. Carapcea at 7-5, 7-6, and Mannix at 7-5, 6-0 – in the fourth and sixth positions, respectively – were the only two Retrievers to emerge triumphant on the singles side, however. Senior Pascaline Cette and Adewumi suffered diffi cult three-set losses. The Binghamton ladies lost 4-2 in the fi nals on Sunday to No. 1 Boston University. To reach the men’s championship game, UMBC secured the doubles point and the third-through-sixth singles positions to upend the Seawolves 4-3. The pairings of junior Nick Savage- Pollock and Ferreira and of Meyer and Voorman triumphed 8-4 and 8-3, respectively. Voorman and Ferreira also won at No. 5 and No. 6 singles, respectively, in straight sets. Senior David Jackson ensured the Retriever advancement with a hard-nosed 6-2, 5-7, 6-4 victory at No. 4 singles, reminiscent of his amazing three-set effort at Navy earlier in the year. The UMBC men conclude their spring campaign with a 15-5 record. The women fi nish at 13-4.

The team has already begun league play in the East Coast Basketball League. Thus far, the team has competed in the James Madison Basketball Classic, and the Battle of Baltimore. In the James Madison Basketball Classic UMBC fi nished 3-3 and lost in the semifi nals to eventual champions James Madison. In the Battle of Baltimore, UMBC was the runner-up to Morgan State University. Over the semester UMBC has had notable wins over UVA, Towson, Georgetown, and Johns Hopkins. The team currently is looking to play one more game against rival school Loyola. UMBC is led in scoring by the strong play of Nick Shade (16.3 ppg), Tobechi Mlemchukwu (11. 4 ppg, 8.6 rpg), Ozell Sanders (12.4 ppg) and Timi Fadirin (10.2 ppg). In addition, the team is helped by the defensive presence of Cameron Moultre and Dapo Lajubutu. FILE PHOTO — TRW > Lacrosse has defeated all fi ve of its America East Conference opponents this season. Men’s lacrosse wins finale Prepares for America East Tournament Corey Johns SENIOR STAFF WRITER With their ninth straight win the lacrosse team did two things. They have won the most consecutive games in UMBC lacrosse history and stand at fi fth in the country. The Retrievers beat Vermont 8-6 on last Saturday afternoon. Vermont came into the game with a 5-10 record and they were looking to spoil the fi nal regular season game for the Retrievers on their senior day. The Catamounts took an early lead as they outscored UMBC 3-2 in the fi rst period and started off the second period with an early score, but the Retrievers fought back and on three occasions followed a Vermont goal with two of their own to give them the 8-6 win. Three Retrievers got the ball in the net twice in the game, two being the team’s leading scorers Terry Kimener and Ryan Smith. Both also had an assist. The third though was freshman Dom Scalzo. He has scored three times this year and once in each of the last three games. Also scoring were Matt Latham to ex- tend his streak to eight games. Latham now has 20 goals, and freshman Bobby Stockton scored once. Last week Stockton scored three times in his breakout game and followed that performance with his fourth goal of the season. The game showed a great defensive effort by UMBC as they allowed just 20 shots with the most in any period being six in the fourth. In the net Jeremy Blevins had seven saves on just 13 shots on goal. “It’s a huge advantage to play at home, we have the second longest home streak in the nation,” said Bobby Atwell. Next weekend the Retrievers will be hosting the America East Conference tournament and will be playing Binghamton in the fi rst round game Thursday. UMBC beat Binghamton earlier in the season with in a 10-5 win and they haven’t lost to the Bearcats since 2004, when they loss was just by one goal. The Retrievers have beaten Binghamton six straight times but know they have to be careful because streaks come to an end. “We have to take things one game at a time and Binghamton is a very good and improved team. With such short notice to prepare we just have to make minor changes and make sure that we are ready and go out an play good lacrosse,” said head coach Don Zimmerman.” The focus right now for the team is obviously Binghamton, but if they win, two days later they will play the winner of No. 2 Albany and No. 3 Stony Brook. Both teams played close to UMBC, Stony Brook lost 14-12 and Albany lost 14-10. Both teams have high scoring offenses. Both of the last two AEC championship games have been the match up of UMBC vs. Albany. Last season, Albany hosted the tournament and won. Yet two seasons ago UMBC also hosted and were victorious. Either way the Retrievers are not looking at the past and are only focused on beating Binghamton right now. “It is nice that this team has accomplished something no other team has accomplished,” said Zimmerman.
