"All of [the Irish midfielders] have played good ... in the last month they have eo me on," said Irish coach Randy Waldrum. "In the beginning they were struggling a bit but now they have really come together." Injuries formed much of the midfield's struggle at the beginning of the season. Both Dryer and Scheller missed games due to injury, and that impeded the growth of the three players as a unit. "The biggest thing early on was injuries," said Scheller. "We didn't get a chance to play together early in the season ... but later in the season we all got healthy and that has made a big difference."

By BRYAN KRONK Sports Writer

It was once said that the best offense for a team is a good defense. Apparently, someone on the N·otre Dame men's soccer team was listening .. The Irish offense put an early goal on the board, and the defense held off several threats from the Georgetown offense as the second-seeded Irish defeated the seventh-seeded Hoyas 1-0 in a Big East quarterfinal match at Alumni Field Saturday night. "We'll take the one goal, but we should have had a lot more," said head coach Bobby Clark. On a cold night when a gusty north wind played a factor in the game, the Irish put a goal on the board just under 11 minutes into - the first half. Defender Jack Stewart made a run up the left side of the field and shot at Hoyas goalkeeper Brian O'Hagan. The shot sailed past O'Hagan and found Irish mid­ fielder Chad Riley on the right side. Riley easily chipped the shot over the head of the charging O'Hagan, and the wind directed the shot right into the center of the net to put the Irish ahead early. "It was pretty much a wide open net because the goalie was cheating a little bit." Riley said. "[Justin] Detter took the long ball and poked it out for me." The Irish defensive line of Griffin Howard, Andreas Forstner. and Justin Ratcliffe took RICO CASARES!The Observer over from there, eliminating virtually every Freshman midfielder Kevin Goldthwaite looks to make a kick during a 2-1 overtime victory against the Syracuse Orangemen.
