  • Hartford City Fc Sign Impact Trio from Folded Rochester Lancers
    HARTFORD CITY FC SIGN IMPACT TRIO FROM FOLDED ROCHESTER LANCERS HARTFORD (October 2, 2015) – Hartford City FC took another step in building out the roster for their inaugural season in the Major Arena Soccer League by signing Joey Tavernese, and twins Jayme and Joey Kapinos. All three players were integral contributors to a Rochester Lancers organization that reached the Eastern Division finals last March. JOEY TAVERNESE The 2014-15 season was a breakout year for Tavernese. His 28 goals and 20 assists earned him the team’s Offensive Player of the Year award. He was also named to the MASL Team of the Week after a March 1 performance in which he tallied 4 goals and 2 assists versus the Baltimore Blast. A tireless player who can set up goals as well as finish them, here’s what Hartford City FC head coach Paul Wright had to say about Tavernese: “I expect Joey to lead our attack and be a constant threat going forward. He is a player that will rarely be outworked and will provide us with valuable MASL experience.” Since the conclusion of the MASL season, Tavernese has played for Icon FC (New Jersey) of the ASL. The Garden City, NY native was a mainstay of the Siena College program from 2007-2010. He’s enjoyed professional stints with FC New York (USL), Armadale SC (Australia), and Antigua GFC (Guatemala). JOEY KAPINOS Kapinos is a proven goalkeeper with 41 starts in the MASL over three seasons. He amassed 584 saves, boasting a .715 save percentage while representing the Rochester Lancers (2014-15) and the Detroit Waza Flo (2012-13, 2013-14).

    SOCCER LEAGUES {Appendix 5, to Sports Facility Reports, Volume 15} Research completed as of August 1, 2014 MAJOR ARENA SOCCER LEAGUE (MASL) Team: Baltimore Blast Principal Owner: Edwin F. Hale, Sr. Current Value ($/Mil): N/A Team Website Stadium: Baltimore Arena Date Built: 1962 Facility Cost ($/Mil): N/A Facility Financing: N/A Facility Website UPDATE: The City of Baltimore is still looking to start a private-public partnership for a new 18,500-seat arena to replace the aging 1st Mariner Arena, which will cost around $500 million. Private funding would go towards the new stadium, while public funding would be used to build a convention center. In March 2012, the state legislature declined to give $2,500,000 for design proposals until a more firm commitment to the project from the City of Baltimore is verbalized. As of July 2014, no commitment had been made. NAMING RIGHTS: Baltimore Blast owner and 1st Mariner Bank President and CEO Ed Hale acquired the naming rights to the arena through his company, Arena Ventures, LLC, as a result of a national competitive bidding process conducted by the City of Baltimore. Arena Ventures agreed to pay the City $75,000 annually for ten years for the naming rights, which ran from 2003 to 2013. The arena will henceforth revert to its former name, the Baltimore Arena. © Copyright 2014, National Sports Law Institute of Marquette University Law School Page 1 Team: Brownsville Barracudas Principal Owner: Oscar Ruvalcaba Current Value ($/Mil): N/A Team Website Stadium: Barracudas FC Sports Complex Date Built: N/A Facility Cost ($/Mil): N/A Facility Financing: N/A Facility Website: N/A UPDATE: The 2014–2015 season will be the Barracudas first season as a professional club.

Graduate Research Fair Programs. Paper 14. http://commons.emich.edu/grf_prog/14 This Article is brought to you for free and open access by the University Archives at DigitalCommons@EMU. It has been accepted for inclusion in Graduate Research Fair Programs by an authorized administrator of DigitalCommons@EMU. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Welcome to the Graduate Research Fair Many of Eastern Michigan University’s 4,500 graduate students are actively engaged in research and creative activity, working in relative solitude under a faculty mentor or collaboratively with their fellow graduate students. Many are patrolling the boundaries of human knowledge; some are actively creating new knowledge. All are doing what researchers do: asking questions and insisting on answers that will withstand the rigorous methodology of their disciplines. When the bright light of truth and beauty breaks through the cloud of human ignorance, it is the natural instinct of the researcher to want to share this epiphany with others. That’s why we set aside a special day to celebrate our graduate scholars and artists. The Graduate Research Fair recreates a setting familiar to professional scholars, the academic conference, with poster sessions and public presentations of scholarly and creative work. This marketplace of ideas expresses the ancient principle of peer review.
