LOCK HAVEN, Pa. – The Lock Haven University men’s soccer team (13-4-3) defeated West Chester University (15-7-1) 2-0 today at McCollum Field, winning the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) Tournament.  

LHU has been on a roll as of late, having not lost in their last 12 matches. Senior Joe Leap (Long Valley, N.J./West Morris Central) got the scoring started for the Haven, after a beautiful pass from freshman Ashley Rosindale (Bradford, England/Beckfoot School) led him past the defensive line.

Rosindale capped the scoring on an adventurous goal just 12 minutes into the second half. The team’s lead striker with 12 goals, Rosindale had been frustrated in the early going, getting several good looks, only to bungle the chance by missing wide or have WCU goalkeeper Andrew Shafer make the save.

Rosindale broke into the scoring column from outside the 18-yard box, hitting the underside of the crossbar, deflecting downward to the goal line and bouncing in. For his goal and assist, Rosindale was named the Championship MVP.

Freshman Chad Feerrar (Lock Haven, Pa./Central Mountain) made three saves for his fifth shutout of the season. Shafer made five saves in the loss.

For Lock Haven, it was the school's 20th overall PSAC title, but first since 1996.
