Lake Erie fall sports wrap up with record-setting seasons
(Painesville, OH – Dec. 13, 2005)- A solid showing by Lake Erie College’s 2005 fall sports teams has generated an unprecedented number of individual award winners for the Storm.

The men’s soccer team, which advanced to the Allegheny Mountain Collegiate Conference championship game and earned a bid to the ECAC post-season tournament, saw four of its players honored. Junior Justin Daly (Hubbard, Ohio/Hubbard) and freshman Joe Starvaggi (Lyndhurst, Ohio/Brush) were both named to the all-AMCC first team squad. Starvaggi also was tabbed as the league’s Newcomer of the Year. Junior Brad McFadden (Niles, Ohio/Niles McKinley) and sophomore Brent Bleasdell (Plano, Texas/South Plantation (Fla.)) were chosen as second team all-AMCC choices. The Storm posted a 10-8-2 overall mark under third-year coach Dale Sheptak, setting the team record for wins in a season.

In women’s soccer, LEC also provided the league’s Newcomer of the Year as freshman Angela Bethel (Beavercreek, Ohio/Miami Valley) took that honor. She was also named a second team all-AMCC selection. Two other players, senior Keri Cameron (Mentor, Ohio/Mentor) and sophomore Loni Sargent (Hubbard, Ohio/Hubbard) were honorable mention choices on the all-AMCC team. The team finished 8-9-2, its best record since 1998, and qualified for the AMCC tournament for the first time since 1999. Sixth-year coach Lauren Ferullo was named co-winner of the league’s Coach of the Year award.

The volleyball team, under fourth year coach Gary VanCauwenberge, qualified for the AMCC tournament for the first time in team history with a playing roster made up exclusively of freshmen and sophomores. Two of the freshmen, Shawnna Sulecki (Rock Creek, Ohio/Geneva) and Tiffany Farmer (West Salem, Ohio/Northwestern), were honorable mention all-AMCC choices. The team’s eight wins were more than in the previous four seasons combined.
