2003 2011 SEASON TITLE PREVIEW
The 2011 Alfred University men’s soccer
team will have no shortage of
experienced players as the Saxons seek
to improve on a 2010 season in which
they went 5-9-3 (0-7-0 in Empire 8
play).
Eight of 11 starters return and a host
of solid bench players from a season
ago and some talented newcomers will
try to help head coach Scott Miller
earn a spot in the Empire 8 Conference
championship tournament for the third
time in eight-year tenure at AU.
Junior forward Frankie Manning, a
two-time Empire 8 all-star, and sophomore
forward-midfielder Jeffrey Thomas
each scored three goals in 2010, tops
among returnees. With seven points on
three goals and an assist, Thomas was
second on the team in points as a
freshman.
Also expected to add scoring punch
for the Saxons are junior forward Rigel
Johnson, and a trio of returning midfielders
in juniors Tony Gai (one goal,
one assist in 2010) and Sam Miller
(one assist), and sophomore Zach
Kranefeld (two goals, one assist), who
may also see time on defense as well.
Freshman Brendan Collins will
compete for playing time, as will a
quintet of freshman midfielder-forwards:
Nicholas Milliman, Eric Deemer,
Pedro Wynkoop, Yvon Mercier and Ian
Healy.
Other Saxons looking for time at
midfield will be senior Eric Lavelle, a
former forward who had two assists as
9
a junior in 2010, and Uriah Kashman,
who made pair of starts last season.
Freshman Colby Cotton will compete
for time at midfield and defense, and
Lavelle may see time on defense as
well.
Defense is a position of depth for
the Saxons, and will be anchored by
returning starter Cory Hill (one goal in
2010). Seniors Mike Chrzbaszcz and
Aileen Bennett have starting experience
but missed several games to injury.
Other returning players hoping to
contribute on defense are sophomore
Thomas Esposito (one goal last year),
senior Cory Hall (two starts last season),
and a pair of converted forwards
in senior Justin Shardlow and junior
Stefan Nonnenmann.
Newcomers competing for time at
defense are freshmen Connor
Petrauskas and Jose Sanchez.
Senior Elliot Thorpe enters his
fourth season as the starting goalie. He
started 16 games in 2010 and had a
1.96 goals against average and a .684
save percentage with three shutouts. A
pair of sophomores - Samuel Guy and
Jacob Bird- will back up Thorpe.
AU will look to improve an offense
that tallied only 19 goals last year and
a defense that allowed 40. The Saxons
will need to reverse a 235-204 shots
disadvantage as they try to reverse three
one-goal losses (1-0 to Elmira and
Ithaca and 2-1 to St. John Fisher) in
conference play a season ago.
