MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Barry University Men’s Soccer program as grown accustomed to seeing alumni playing at the professional level and Devala Gorrick is yet another player continuing his playing career with a new contract overseas.

Men's Soccer Kendall Sealy Participates In NASL Combine

Fri, 01 Feb 2013 10:37:00 GMT

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Barry University standout soccer player Kendall Sealy will partake in the North American Soccer League combine on Friday, Feb. 1 through Feb. 3 at Lockhart Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

For Barry head coach Steve McCrath this is another great sign of a program that is in the upper echelon of the South Region and NCAA Division II.

“This is a great opportunity for (Kendall); it’s something he’s desired to do. I’m pleased that he has the opportunity for others to recognize whether he is a good fit,” McCrath said.

Sealy finished his four-year career tied for fifth in games played throughout program history with 73 caps and amassed over 4400 minutes. The Trinidad and Tobago native finished his senior year with two goals and four assists giving him 13 goals and 14 assists for his career.

“I’m excited; it’s great to have another Barry player earn an invite to the combine. It really shows the level of consistency of our program,” McCrath said.

Former Barclays Premier League defender and French international Pascal Chimbonda will join the group of more than 60 players aiming to impress coaches at the NASL Combine in Florida this weekend.

Last year nine players were signed by NASL teams, including former Buccaneer Mark Anderson who signed with the Fort Lauderdale Strikers. Anderson went on to finish third in the league in goals scored and was named to the NASL Best XI Team at the end of the season.

This is the third straight season in which the Buccaneers have had a player in the NASL combine following their senior season, Sascha Koettig in 2011, Anderson last spring and Sealy this season.

The combine begins Feb. 1 through Sunday, Feb. 3 at Lockhart Stadium in Fort Lauderdale, Fla.

SSC Posts Top Division II ASR for 6th Straight Year

Mon, 28 Jan 2013 16:11:00 GMT

GRAPEVNE, Texas -- For the sixth consecutive year, the Sunshine State Conference has posted the top NCAA Division II Academic Success Rate.

The Academic Success Rate for all 23 Division II conferences was released at the NCAA Convention, which was held in Grapevine, Texas, Jan. 16-19. SSC member institutions posted an ASR of 86 percent to again lead all conferences. The Northeast-10 Conference placed second in the rankings with an ASR of 85 percent. The leagues have claimed the top two spots in the conference-by-conference comparison each year since the ASR performance rankings were first released in January 2008.

"We are very excited to again receive the distinction of having the highest ASR rate of any Division II conference," SSC Commissioner Jay Jones said. "This is a special honor for our coaches, student-athletes and administrators and it speaks to the value that our member schools put on success in the classroom. They work hard to maintain this distinction year after year and we are very proud of those efforts."

Data for the 2012 version of the ASR was compiled by following the progress of the 2002-05 cohort. The national four-year ASR for all DII student-athletes remained steady at 72 percent. SSC student-athletes performed well above that average with a composite ASR of 86. All told, 89 percent of the 123 teams that were counted for SSC member institutions exceeding the national average of 72.

A number of SSC teams posted a perfect 100 percent Academic Success Rate, and each member institution had at least one program achieve a perfect mark. They included:

- Barry softball;
- Eckerd softball;
- Florida Tech men's golf, women's golf, women's tennis, and men's track;
- Florida Southern men's tennis, women's tennis, and softball;
- Lynn men's basketball, women's golf, softball, men's tennis, and volleyball;
- Nova Southeastern women's golf;
- Rollins men's swimming, women's swimming, women's basketball, women's soccer, volleyball, women's tennis, men's track, and women's track;
- Saint Leo women's tennis; and
- Tampa women's tennis.

Along with the Division I Graduation Success Rate (GSR), the ASR is a tool used by the NCAA to measure the academic progress of student-athletes competing within the Association. The NCAA developed the Division II ASR at the request of college and university presidents who believed the federal graduation rate was flawed. Both the Division I GSR and the DII ASR take into account transfer students. However, given the partial-scholarship model of Division II, the ASR also includes student-athletes not receiving athletically-related financial aid. The ASR also removes students from the cohort who left the institution while academically eligible to compete.

Top Ten NCAA Division II ASR Conferences
1. Sunshine State Conference - 86%
2. Northeast-10 Conference - 85%
3. Great Lakes Valley Conference - 80%
4. Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference - 78%
5. Central Atlantic Collegiate Conference - 77%
T6. East Coast Conference - 75%
T6. Great Northwest Athletic Conference - 75%
8. Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference - 74%
9. Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference - 73%
T10. Conference Carolinas - 72%
T10. Pacific West Conference - 72%

Men's Soccer Sinks Tritons

Sat, 27 Oct 2012 22:21:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team defeated Eckerd College in the regular season finale, 3-0, Saturday night.

Eckerd (7-8-2, 4-3-1 SSC) was a step behind the Buccaneer attack for most of the game as the Tritons were out-shot by the Bucs 20-9.

Barry (5-10-1, 1-6-1 SSC) struck first in the 36^th minute of the match connecting on a pair of passes from Lucas Rio Torto and Thomas Coombes.

After making a move around a defender, Rio Torto found Coombes in the middle of the Tritons defense. Coombes then slipped a pass to Patrick Drmola who gave the Bucs the early 1-0 advantage with his second goal of the season.

Heading out of the break with a 1-0 lead, the Bucs continued to apply pressure. Following a pair of crosses by the Tritons on a corner kick opportunity, goalkeeper Edwin Jean punched the ball out of harm’s way up to Thomas Coombes near the midfield line.

Coombes ran several yards with the ball before finding Drmola for the second time in the match and the same combination resulted in the Bucs’ second goal of the game.

With a comfortable 2-0 lead, Barry remained in control of the game throughout, and in the 74^th minute Cris Sevieri sealed the victory with his first goal of the season. Kris Wilkinson found Cris Sevieri on the far post on a Buccaneer corner, and the sophomore defender found the back of the net for his fist goal of the season.

With just over three minutes to play, Jean fired out of the box to coral a ball before the Tritons could get a shot away, making a spectacular play and preserving the Buccaneer shutout.

Nine seniors were honored prior to the start of the game. With six of the seniors earning a start and Edwin Jean came off the bench, contributing to the Buccaneer victory. Those seniors honored but not participating due to injury include Johnny Rodrigues and Christian Yidios.

With just a few minutes left in the game, Houghton Kinsman and Kendall Sealy received an ovation from the 179 fans in attendance. Joe Conkleton also finishes a spectacular four-year career ranking second all-time in minutes played in program history.

Former Men's Soccer Standout Resigns With Strikers

Fri, 26 Oct 2012 11:27:00 GMT

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – The Strikers announced Wednesday the resigning of former Barry University standout, Mark Anderson, the club’s leading goal-scorer for 2012.

Anderson scored 13 goals in all and was recently named to the NASL’s Best XI Team in his first professional season after finishing off an illustrious four-year career with Barry University.

The 2011 Division II National Player of the Year played in 25 matches for the Strikers, including 19 starts.

“We are very excited to have re-signed Mark,” said Strikers head coach Daryl Shore. “He was a big part of our team in his rookie season and we are very happy to have him back with the red and yellow for 2013. Being able to keep a solid core group of guys together as we move forward is important and Mark is a big part of this group.”

The midfielder for Durham, England will be under contract through the 2013 season with club option for 2014 and 2015.

Anderson was second on the Strikers in appearances among field players with 25, including being named a starter 19 times. He added three assists on the season as well.

“It’s been a long process, but it’s nice to finally come to an agreement,” said Anderson. “I’m looking forward to the future and hopefully winning a championship with the Strikers.”

In 2012, Anderson finished the season with 11 goals in NASL play, good for third in the league.

“You don’t want to stand still, and to know that the club has aspirations of moving forward was a big part of my decision,” said Anderson. “We signed some core players like Matt (Glaeser), Walter (Restrepo), and Pecka who are key to moving forward, so that was a major factor as well.”

Men's Soccer Falls To No. 4 Lynn

Wed, 24 Oct 2012 19:42:00 GMT

BOCA RATON, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team suffered a tough defeat at the hands of their rival Lynn Wednesday afternoon, 1-0.

Rivalry games bring out the best in teams and although the Buccaneers have struggled throughout this season, they certainly came out with a purpose.

Barry (4-10-1, 1-6-1 SSC) was looking to knock-off the No. 4 ranked Fighting Knights in their final showdown of the season. After falling to the Knights 2-0 earlier in the year, the Bucs were hungry to avenge the loss.

Neither team scored in the opening period in what turned into a very physical game early on.

Lynn (14-2-0, 7-1-0 SSC) held a slight advantage in shots, 4-1, during the first half but it wasn’t until the 88^th minute that the scoreless tie would be broken.

Following a controversial foul called against the Bucs the Fighting Knights played a ball into the box from the left side of the pitch. The cross connected with a header on frame but Fred Perez was there to make the save. Unfortunately for the Bucs, Perez was not able to corral the ball and Simon Gubisch of Lynn slipped a shot past Perez, lifting Lynn to the 1-0 victory.

The Bucs will battle Eckerd College in Feinbloom Field in what will be the season finale this Saturday, Oct. 27^th with kickoff set for 7:00 p.m.

Nine seniors will be recognized during a halftime ceremony for their contributions to Barry University and the men’s soccer program. Live-stat and video coverage of the game as well as the halftime ceremony will be available through the Barry University athletics website, GOBARRYBUCS.COM.

Men's Soccer Drops SSC Finale To Panthers

Sat, 20 Oct 2012 18:30:00 GMT

MELBOURNE, Fla.—The Barry Buccaneers dropped their final Sunshine State Conference men’s soccer game 2-1 to the Florida Tech Panthers at Rick Stottler Field on Saturday.

Barry (4-9-1, 1-6-1 SSC) jumped out in front in the eighth minute of the match, capitalizing on a sloppy Panthers turnover along the back line which a speedy Patrick Drmola was able to intercept. The Chelsea, England native picked up the first goal of his Buccaneer career, firing a strike past Panthers’ keeper Mitch Thorn to give Barry the 1-0 advantage.

The advantage was short-lived, however, as just eight minutes later Florida Tech answered with the equalizer. Antoine Aupiais found Ricky Menendez just outside of the 18-yard box, where he turned and slipped a shot past Fred Perez to even the match at 1-1.

The Panthers scored the winner in the 62^nd minute after a Buccaneer defensive miscue. On a thrown in, Aupiais was left unmarked near the top of the box. He chested the ball down and ripped a shot into the back of the net.

The Bucs had a chance to tie the game in the 73^rd minute. Drmola’s shot got past Thorn, but Will Henderson was there to knock it away.

The Bucs led 17-6 in shots, including 6-4 on goal. Thorn had four saves, while Perez made two for the Bucs.

Barry closes the regular season with a pair of SSC “+4” games next week, at Lynn on Wednesday and at home against Eckerd on Saturday.

Men's Soccer Wins At Home Over Mocs

Tue, 16 Oct 2012 21:55:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla.—The Barry Buccaneers got their first home win of the season with a 4-3 victory over the Florida Southern Moccasins in Sunshine State Conference men’s soccer action at Buccaneer Field on Tuesday night.

The Mocs (2-10-1, 1-5-0 SSC) struck first and last, but in between it was all Buccaneers. Carlos Rodriguez gave Florida Southern a 1-0 lead just three minute into the game when he flicked a header over the out-stretched hands of Barry keeper Fred Perez.

The lead held up for almost 16 minutes. Barry even the match at 1-1 in the 20^th minute as Patrick Drmola fed Kendall Sealy through the middle, leaving Sealy one-on-one with FSC keeper Brent Theriault. Sealy fired to the near post to knot the game.

The Bucs (4-8-1, 1-5-1 SSC) took the lead for good in the 29^th minute. Drmola and Sealy worked a nifty combination at midfield to work free and Sealy found Kris Wilkinson at the top of the 18-yard box for the goal.

The second half was even more active as both teams scored twice. Joong Kim put Barry up 3-1 in the 57^th minute when Sealy’s pass slithered through the Mocs’ defense and found Kim wide open on the right side. Kim finished for the 3-1 lead.

In the 63^rd minute, the Mocs crept closer after a Barry miscue in the back. Thomas Blumenthal intercepted a pass from Cris Sevieri and fed the ball to Adam Hansjons at the top of the 18. Hansjons flicked a pass into the penalty area and Luke Jenner headed the ball past Perez.

Barry struck in the 78^th minute. This time, Wilkinson fed the ball through the Mocs defense to Connor Randel on the left wing and Randel sprinted into the box and beat Theriault to the far post for a 4-2 lead.

The Mocs were not done, however. In the 84^th minute, Ricky Marton launched a long pass into the penalty area and this time, it was Patrick Abrahamsson who flicked the header over Perez.

That was as close as it would get, though, as Barry killed the rest of the clock to walk away with the 4-3 win. Florida Southern held a 20-17 edge in shots, though Barry led 10-8 on goal. Perez had five saves to improve to 4-6-1 on the season, while Theriault stopped six shots, but took the loss to drop to 1-6.

The Bucs travel to Melbourne, Fla., on Saturday to face the Florida Tech Panthers at 3:30 pm. You can listen to all the action on the Buccaneer website at GoBarryBucs.com.

Former Men's Soccer Star Anderson Named To NASL Best XI

Tue, 09 Oct 2012 12:39:00 GMT

MIAMI, Fla. -- The North American Soccer League has selected its 2012 Best XI Team and rookie striker Mark Anderson was one of two Fort Lauderdale Strikers to earn the honor. Midfielder Walter Restrepo was one of three unanimous selections and joins Anderson on the squad selected by NASL coaches.

“This award is well deserved for both Walter and Mark,” said Strikers head coach Daryl Shore. “Prior to Walter’s injury he was probably the most dynamic player in our league with the ball going forward, and losing him was a big blow to our team and I am happy the other coaches in the league saw how valuable Walter was to our team and our league.”

Restrepo, 24, played a key role in the Strikers attack throughout the season collecting seven goals and nine assists in all competitions, with his eight assists in the regular season tied for first in the NASL. Restrepo’s season was cut short when he suffered a knee injury during training forcing him to miss the final seven games of 2012. The player who had been the recipient of the majority of his assists was Mark Anderson.

“Mark was probably the most affected by the loss of Walter,” said Shore. “However he had a great rookie season and is also well deserving of being on the Best XI. His knack for goal was special and I think he scored some of the most exciting goals in the league this year.”

Anderson, 23, scored his first goal for the Strikers on May 2nd against Carolina. Anderson scored his first career goal on May 2^nd against the Carolina RailHawks. Throughout the season Anderson earned Offensive Player of the Week on two different occasions after a pair of multi-goal games for the Strikers. With 11 goals, the native of Durham, England finished third in the NASL. Anderson also collected a pair of goals in two US Open Cup matches.

“It means a lot to get this award. To receive recognition from the whole league and be put ahead of some exceptional players is a great honor,” said Anderson. “It’s not just an award for me, but for the players and staff that work with me day in and day out and gave me every opportunity to excel on the field. Thank you.”

For a player that accomplished every accolade possible (athletic and academic) at the collegiate level, Anderson continues to raise the bar and exceed all expectations.

Anderson was named the 2011 Daktronics DII National Soccer Player of the Year and 2011 Capital One Academic All-America of the Year for DII men's soccer wrapping up an illustrious four-year career with the Buccaneers.

Men's Soccer Struggles At Home Against Tars

Sat, 06 Oct 2012 19:21:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team suffered a tough loss Saturday versus Sunshine State Conference foe Rollins, 5-0.

Barry (3-7-0, 0-5-0 SSC) got off to a strong start, dictating the pace of the game in the early beginnings and nearly capitalized on a pair of opportunities.

Kris Wilkinson ripped a shot that missed just wide to the right in the fifth minute mark and once again in the 11 minute, Kendall Sealy nearly put one home as his attempt slid just left of the goal.

Both teams countered throughout the first half, but the Tars jumped ahead on Brett Durrance’s first goal of the season in the 43^rd minute, and Rollins would carry the momentum into the intermission.

Unfortunately for the Buccaneers, the equalizer would not come in the early portions of the second half and the Tars took advantage of several scoring opportunities, putting the game out of reach in route to a 5-0 victory.

The Tars (6-3-2, 2-2-1 SSC) finished with a one shot advantage over Barry but they certainly made all of their chances count.

Barry returns to action on Tuesday, and they’ll look to end a recent two-game skid when they host the Lions of Saint Leo University.

Fri, 05 Oct 2012 14:55:00 GMT

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – The fans have voted, and former Buccaneer standout Mark Anderson has been named the Fort Lauderdale Strikers 2012 Ultras Player of the Year.

It was a close race between Anderson and midfielder Walter Restrepo with the lead changing among them daily. But in the end Anderson held on to win the coveted fan favorite trophy (Glorified beer mug).

In his first year of professional soccer after finishing an illustrious career with the Bucs, Anderson led the Strikers with 11 goals on the year. The midfielder from Durham, England started 19 of the 25 games and helped lead the Strikers into post season play.

The award is a result of a fan vote, and Anderson will hopefully put an end to the recent “curse” of the award. Several recent recipients of the award have not returned to play for the Strikers the following season; however, the Strikers will certainly look to retain their leading scorer after his contract expires this fall.

“We want to congratulate Mark Anderson on a wonderful year so far with one game still pending he is the Strikers top scorer with 11 goals and 3 assists in 25 games!”

Men's Soccer Falls To Spartans

Wed, 03 Oct 2012 22:01:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team dropped a home match against the University of Tampa Spartans Wednesday night, 3-0.

The Bucs (3-6-0, 0-4-0 SSC) have dropped their last two contest after collecting a pair of wins outside of conference play, going 2-2 in their last four games. The Spartans and Bucs faced off earlier this season with Barry coming away with the 1-0 victory.

Unfortunately, on this night the ball rolled the Spartans’ way as they were able to avenge the defeat from just two weeks ago.

Tampa (6-3-1, 3-1-0 SSC) jumped ahead in the 11^th minute on Tyler Blackwood’s sixth goal of the season.

In the second half the Spartans snuck another goal past Buccaneer goalkeeper Edwin Jean off the foot of Joshua Freese for the game’s second goal. Roughly sixteen minutes later it was Blackwood, the Spartans leading scorer, who put the game out of reach with his second goal of the night.

The Bucs applied pressure on Tampa goalkeeper David Niepel, but were not able to break through, finishing the match with 14 total shots.

Barry will look to rebound on Saturday when they host the Tars of Rollins College at Buccaneer Field. Live-stat and video coverage will be available through the Barry University athletics website, GOBARRYBUCS.COM.

Men’s Soccer’s Gustavo Rivera Dons Native Colors

Mon, 01 Oct 2012 16:15:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Very few opportunities can make an athlete as proud as representing his native land at the international level. At the age of 19, Gustavo Rivera of Barry University’s men’s soccer team has already experienced it and looks to return in an effort to get Puerto Rico to the CONCACAF Tournament in Mexico.

Rivera, a freshman defender for the Buccaneers, has made an immediate impact having played in all eight contest thus far and has started the last four games.

The San Juan native previously played with both the U-20 Puerto Rican squad and has been called up to the 1^st Team (National Squad) during World Cup Qualifiers.

This past summer Rivera helped Puerto Rico to a pair of 2-0 victories over Bermuda and Barbados as well as a 0-0 draw versus Haiti in the first round of the Caribbean Group for the CONCACAF qualifiers. Rivera and El Huracán Azul (The Blue Hurricane) now set their eyes on Jamaica as Puerto Rico U-20’s will look to qualify for the CONCACAF for the first time in the nation’s history.

Soccer in Puerto Rico has increased not only in popularity but in the success they’ve enjoyed in recent competitions. On Aug. 15^th, they hosted the European and World Champions Spain in an international friendly and came away with 2-1 defeat, (but a strong showing), against “La Furia Roja” (The Red Fury).

“Having recently played Spain in a tough match and now our U-20’s reaching the second round of the Caribbean qualifier is a very important step for us,” said Rivera. “We’ve progressed from a team that no one talked about to playing Spain and other elite teams on the world stage.”

“It’s been a great experience to represent my country in international play,” said Rivera. Playing primarily right-back for Puerto Rico, Rivera has grown accustomed to their style of play.

“Our team (Puerto Rico) is very technical, in the way we play. We like to keep the ball on the ground and posses the ball. It’s been great playing at the international level with strong competition but when compared to the Division II college game, I must say college has been a more physical style of play.”

Former Buccaneers Andres Perez and Marco Velez of the Puerto Rico Islanders are on the current National 1^st team roster, something Rivera aspires to achieve in the near future.

“I’ve been called-up to play with the first team in the past but my goal is certainly to be a regular member of the First-Team squad.”

Velez, a friend of Rivera, is a big reason why he came to Barry this fall.

“Marco is a close friend and has been a great help in the process, not only with the national team but also in getting me to Barry. He was the one who put me in contact with Coach McCrath and told me about the soccer program and Barry University as a whole.”

The qualifier will run from Nov. 3-12^th and Puerto Rico is slated to face Trinidad and Tobago on Nov. 5^th with matchups versus Curacao and Haiti lying ahead. The CONCACAF Tournament will be hosted by the 2012 reigning champions Mexico.

Men's Soccer Suffers Setback Loss Versus Tritons

Sat, 29 Sep 2012 20:35:00 GMT

St. Petersburg, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team fell to Eckerd College Saturday night, 3-0, dropping a third consecutive match in Sunshine State Conference play.

The Buccaneers entered the match winners of two straight and were coming off an overtime victory over unbeaten Palm Beach Atlantic in their strongest offensive performance of the season.

Eckerd (4-4-1, 2-1-1 SSC) set the tone early as Matt Dolan put home the Triton’s first two goals of the match in the seventh minute mark and again in the 73^rd minute of the game.

Barry (3-5-0, 0-3-0 SSC) was out-shot 15 to 9 on the night.

Joe Swindel put the game out of reach in the 81^st minute with a goal and the Tritons went on to win by a 3-0 final.

The Buccaneers hope that a return to the friendly confines of Buccaneer field will help jump start an offense that has scored just seven goals in eight games.

Four of the Bucs’ next five matches are at home including a three-game home-stand beginning Wednesday, Oct. 3 versus Tampa.

The Bucs knocked-off the previously 8^th ranked Spartans in their first meeting this season and will look to capture the season sweep.

Men's Soccer Hands Sailfish First Loss In OT Thriller

Wed, 26 Sep 2012 19:13:00 GMT

West Palm Beach, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team defeated Palm Beach Atlantic 3-2 in overtime Wednesday evening, handing the Sailfish their first loss of the season.

The Buccaneers (3-4-0) are beginning to find their style in their best offensive performance of the year thus far and look like a team that is slowly gaining its confidence.

Thomas Coombes put the Bucs on the board early when he struck a cross from Joong Kim past Sailfish goalkeeper Strunk for the game’s first goal.

The Sailfish (7-1-0) answered with a goal of their own in the 22^nd minute as Cameron Roberts snuck one past Fred Perez to even the match, 1-1.

Creating numerous chances in the first period, the Bucs capitalized once again just two minutes after the Sailfish evened the score.

Senior midfielder Houghton Kinsman put home his first goal of the season on Kim’s second assist of the game, lifting Barry to a 2-1 advantage at the half.

Palm Beach Atlantic showed that they were not going away, and just five minutes into the second period they tied the game at two. Kenny Hogg, the nation’s leading scorer, found the back of the net for the 15^th time in the young season following the rebound on his initial shot to get the second attempt past Perez.

Neither team scored in the remaining 40 minutes of the second half. Although both had several opportunities, neither team capitalized.

Five minutes into the extra period, senior Joe Conkleton found Guilherme Oliveira in the middle of the field. Oliveira then turned his sights to Connor Randel.

The sophomore midfielder from Shreveport, Louisiana then made a move past one defender and struck a shot from roughly ten yards out and connected. Randel’s goal lifted the Bucs in their first overtime game of the season and his three goals are a team high thus far.

The Buccaneers, winners of their last two, return to conference action on Saturday when they travel to St. Petersburg, Fla. where they’ll battle against Eckerd College.

Men's Soccer Defeats No. 8 Tampa 1-0

Sat, 22 Sep 2012 23:10:00 GMT

TAMPA, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team defeated Tampa, 1-0, Saturday ending a three-game skid and picked up their second shutout of the season.

The Bucs (2-4, 0-2-0 SSC) withstood a barrage of shots from the Spartans and were able to hold off the NO. 8 ranked team in the nation on their home turf.

Barry scored the only goal of the game when Kris Wilkinson found the back of the net following a rebound off a header to beat goalkeeper David Neipel. Wilkinson’s first career goal as a Buccaneer came in the 21^st minute and was enough offense, as the Bucs defense answered the call.

Buccaneer goalkeeper Fred Perez finished the match with seven saves, breaking his career-high set just three days before, and picked up his second career shutout.

Tampa (4-2-1, 1-1-0 SSC) applied plenty of pressure throughout the match out-shooting the Bucs 31 to 12, including a 17 to nine advantage in the second half.

Barry steps out of conference play to battle Palm Beach Atlantic on Wednesday, Sep. 26 with kickoff set for 4 p.m. Live-stat and audio broadcast will be available through the Barry University athletics website, GOBARRYBUCS.COM.

Men's Soccer Falls To Top-Ranked Lynn

Wed, 19 Sep 2012 21:48:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team suffered its third consecutive loss after dropping a 2-0 decision against rival Lynn Wednesday night.

It was a game filled with physical play, as it has come to be expected between these two heated rivals.

Barry (1-4-0, 0-2-0 SSC) was shut-out for the third time in as many games.

The Fighting Knights (7-0-0, 2-0-0 SSC) entered the match as the top ranked team in the nation and proved to be every bit as good on this night.

The Buccaneers’ goalkeeper, Fred Perez and the defense answered the call in the first half as the Fighting Knights relentless attack. Lynn out-shot Barry 12 to three in the opening period, but Perez tallied four of his career-high five saves keeping the match scoreless after 45 minutes.

It wasn’t until 47^th minute mark that Martin Welhert connected on a header following a cross from James Aldred to give the Fighting Knights the 1-0 lead.

The Bucs did not find the equalizer and Julian Halder was able to put the game out of reach when he scored from roughly 25 yards out in the 87^th minute.

Men’s Soccer Stumbles At Saint Leo

Sat, 15 Sep 2012 22:43:00 GMT

SAINT LEO, Fla. – Barry University’s men’s soccer fell at the hands of Saint Leo Saturday night, dropping their second consecutive game, 1-0, in the Buccaneers’ first conference match of the season.

Saint Leo (3-1,1-1) tallied the game’s first goal in the 44^th minute mark after Aaron Gendreauput the ball on net. Barry goalkeeper Fred Perez made the save on Gendreau's initial shot but was not able to secure the rebound. Gendreaus put home the rebound, and gave the Lions the 1-0 advantage heading into the break.

The Buccaneers finished with a 16 to 10 advantage in shots, but it was the Lions that scored the game’s only goal.

The Bucs’ focus now shifts to rival No. 1 Lynn University. The Fighting Knights boast a 6-0 record and were the preseason favorites to finish atop the Sunshine State Conference standings.

Lynn ended Barry’s season in 2012 advancing in the Regional Final of the NCAA Tournament by way of penalty kicks, and eliminating the Bucs.

The match highlights rivalry week for the Buccaneers. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. with live video coverage as well as live-stats available through the Barry University athletics website, GOBARRYBUCS.COM.

Men's Soccer Drops Home Opener

Sat, 08 Sep 2012 21:52:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team fell at the hands of the Bentley University Falcons in the Buccaneers’ home opener Saturday night, 1-0.

The Buccaneers (1-2-0) were the aggressors in the first half, dictating the tempo of the game from the start. Freshman forward Patrick Drmola started for the Bucs in his first action since joining the team and showed his ability on the ball and is rapidly picking up the Buccaneer system.

The Falcons (3-0-0) entered the day riding a two-game win streak to begin the season.

Neither team was able to find the back of the net in the first half. Barry was not able to capitalize on several set pieces with four of the six corner kick opportunities coming in the first half.

For the majority of the match the Buccaneer defense held strong, but in the 74^th minute off a Falcon’s throw-in deep in the Buccaneer zone, Stephen Silva served a ball into the box and Brennan DaCosta was able to sneak a header past goalkeeper Fred Perez for the game’s first tally.

Barry answered with a few opportunities including a run by midfielder Guilherme Oliveira towards the near post on a cross, but the shot skipped just wide of the net.

The Bucs return to action on Saturday, Sep. 15^th when they travel to St. Leo for their first conference match of the season. Last fall, Barry defeated the Lions 6-0 in their first meeting of 2011. The two teams faced each other once again in the opening round of the conference tournament with the Bucs advancing by way of penalty kicks.

The match is scheduled to kickoff at 7:00 p.m. with live-stat and broadcast coverage available through the Barry University athletics website, GOBARRYBUCS.COM.

Men's Soccer Rebounds With Win Over Tusculum

Sat, 01 Sep 2012 21:54:00 GMT

GREENVILLE, TENN. – Barry University’s men’s soccer team defeated Tusculum Saturday night, 2-0, in a rebound performance after dropping the season opener just two days before.

Barry (1-1-0) played the aggressor from the beginning of the game. They looked like a different team, much more determined than they appeared in the season opener. In the early goings of the game Barry had few minor opportunities and 17 minutes into the match Thomas Coombes found himself one-on-one with Goellner the goalkeeper.

Goellner was caught out of position about 18 yards out and Coombes attempted to chip it over his head, but sent the shot high and the Bucs failed to capitalize.

It wasn’t until the 37^th minute that Kendall Sealy controlled a loose ball inside the box and was able to get a shot off. The shot was deflected by a Pioneer defender and slipped past Goellner for the game’s first goal. The 1-0 advantage would carry Barry into the intermission.

The Bucs came out of the half hungry and looking to add to their 1-0 advantage when Connor Randel made a run down the left side. Randel made a move inside past a defender and struck a shot from roughly eight yards out that connected and gave Barry a two goal lead.

The two goals were more than enough on a night in which Barry imposed its defense on Tusculum. The Pioneers managed just five shots in the entire match, two in the second half and only one of those looks was on goal.

Tusculum (1-1-0) was never able to penetrate the Buccaneer defense and did not have many quality opportunities the entire match. The Bucs intensity defensively was a factor throughout.

Fred Perez earned his first career win in the shutout and improved to 1-1 on the year.

The Buccaneers wrapped up their road trip with a win and head back to Miami Shores where they will prepare for their home opener. Barry welcomes Bentley University in one week’s time with kickoff scheduled for 7 p.m. on Saturday, Sep. 8.

Game coverage will feature the first-ever live video broadcast of men’s soccer at Buccaneer field with live-stats also available through the Barry University athletics website, GOBARRYBUCS.COM. Live video coverage will be available for a majority of the home matches throughout the season.

Men’s Soccer Drops Season Opener At Mars Hill

Thu, 30 Aug 2012 09:54:00 GMT

MARS HILL, N.C. – Barry University’s men’s soccer team fell at the hands of No. 17 Mars Hill Thursday evening in the season opener for both squads, 3-1.

A South Region foe, Mars Hill (1-0-0) showed poise throughout the match and the Lions were able to wreck havoc from the start.

The Bucs (0-1-0) got off to an aggressive start in the early part of the match, but were caught off guard as Shadi Harb slipped behind the defense and found the back of the net in the ninth minute mark for the game’s first goal.

After falling behind, the No. 12 ranked Bucs attempted to find their rhythm offensively. In the 12^th minute mark Thomas Coombes was able to put a header on goal off a Connor Randel cross but goalkeeper Zac Scott came up with the save.

The remainder of the half saw few scoring opportunities for either team, as the Bucs finished with just two shots on goal and Barry trailed Mars Hill at the intermission, 1-0.

Mars Hill continued to apply the pressure in the second half by seizing control of the pace and possession limiting the Bucs’ opportunities.

In the 59^th minute mark, Andres Diaz found Alex Mullen and the Lions increased the deficit to 2-0 as they began to pull away. The second half was a similar story as the Lions’ defense was able to contain the Buccaneers without allowing many solid scoring opportunities.

Trailing by two, the Bucs found themselves just a step behind, not connecting on their passes and Mars Hill left little doubt by putting the game nearly away with a third goal.

Mullen scored his second goal of the match on a corner kick off the foot of Felipe Ferraro and the goal seemed to take the wind out of the Bucs’ sails.

Randel put Barry on the board in the 89^th minute with his first goal of the season but the Bucs fell short on this night.

Barry was out-shot 22 to 11 in the match including a 15 to five Mars Hill advantage in the second half.

Bucs Eye Return To NCAA Tourney For Fourth Consecutive Season

Fri, 24 Aug 2012 16:38:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. -- The 2011 campaign was filled with as many highs and lows as any other season in program history. Head coach Steve McCrath led his Buccaneers to the NCAA Tournament for the third consecutive year. Barry advanced to the regional final before falling to rival Lynn by way of penalty kicks. The Bucs posted a 12-3-6 mark, and avenged a pair of losses to Rollins in both the regular season and the Sunshine State Conference Tournament with a 3-1 victory in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament.

McCrath has built a solid foundation, and the men’s soccer program will look to reload as opposed to rebuild with a blend of experienced veterans and a talented group of incoming players. Barry returns eight starters, three All-SSC selections, three Daktronics All-South Region members and is led by Daktronics All-Americans Johnny Rodrigues and Guilherme Oliveira.

“This fall, we have a lot of new players who have yet to play with us, but not a lot of new faces since a majority of our recruits were training with us in the spring semester,” McCrath said. “The defense will be a question with only one starter from last year’s defensive third returning. However a lot of experienced and talented players will look to fill the void that should develop into one of the team’s strengths as the season progresses.

“Overall we have a quality core group of players. This bunch has a sensational work ethic, a desire for success. They don’t cut corners and have the intangibles to be successful on and off the field.”

The Buccaneers return two seniors between the pipes this fall in Johnny Rodrigues and Fred Perez. They also welcome freshman Robby Shearer into a skilled group of goalkeepers. Rodrigues is a two-time All-American with tremendous leadership on and off the field.

This past spring, Perez and the Bucs captured the South Florida Cup, posting three consecutive shutouts. The only goals Perez allowed during the four-game round-robin tournament came in the team’s final match against Division I Florida International. The Bucs defeated the Golden Panthers, 3-2, en route to capturing the cup. Perez has shown great improvement, maturing in his role between the pipes.

Joining the veteran group of keepers will be freshman Shearer. The Lake Howell native will gain valuable experience behind the seniors. Shearer has the physical tools, and the coaching staff will have to groom him as they part ways with three keepers at the end of the season.

The defensive third will be a question heading into the start of fall camp, but good programs don’t rebuild, they reload. McCrath has instilled a reputation of teams that are built with an attacking mentality offensively and at the same time trust their defense to step up.

“We have the capability to be very tough defensively this year,” McCrath said. “We have the ability to play different styles. We can either go light in the back, and do well, or we can move to a more physical style depending on matchups and how the game is progressing.”

Senior All-American Joe Conkleton brings experience to the back line, but their success lies in their ability to mesh and communicate as they work together.

“Joe certainly brings experience to our defense,” McCrath said. “He is extremely adept at starting attacks from the back line.

“Defense is about timing, and it’s the easiest aspect of soccer. It’s certainly much easier to defend than to create which is why we are confident in the players that we have to be successful.”

Last year’s squad relied on its defense in the early portion of the season as it proved to be the team’s backbone. This season McCrath will look to several newcomers to hold the reigns as they reestablish the back line. The newcomers that will look to make an early impact defensively include juniors Shaun Herselman and Ryan Barksdale. Herselman is a junior college transfer who possesses the ball effectively, and is adept to attacking from the flank.

Incoming freshmen Cris Sevieri, Michael Dodds, Gustavo Rivera and Bryan Brown have all turned in solid showings in camp thus far, and will all battle for time this fall.

“Michael is a very tough-nosed defensive player and possesses very good leadership qualities for a young player,” McCrath said.

McCrath stressed the importance of communication along the backline as the key to this group’s success. Under McCrath, the Bucs have developed a reputation for having teams that constantly attack. However, the Buccaneers have had some of the strongest defensive teams in the SSC and throughout the South region.

The midfield will be one of the most talented in the conference as it is filled with experienced players and interchangeable playmakers. Senior Guilherme Oliveira proved to be a force last fall on his way to earning All-America honors, but others such as Randy Taylor, Joong Kim, Christian Yidios and Houghton Kinsman will bring experience to the engine that makes this team run. Taylor finished last fall with four goals, and Yidios and Kinsman played in 20 and 19 games, respectively, for the Bucs in 2011.

“Those who have played us know that we are an attacking team,” McCrath said. “We love to posses the ball and create opportunities. We feel that we are in the upper echelon and have the ability to play both ways. That is, constantly attacking and solid defense so we aren’t surprised when we put up 4-5 goals, nor does it surprise us when we shut other teams out.

“This year, one of our major strengths will be our versatility and depth. It’s exciting to know how many players we are able to plug into a game without that dropoff in (production).”

The ability to play several different styles is something McCrath has stressed. The midfield is a group that will facilitate scoring by either “buzzing” around and spreading the field or through a more physical approach – winning the battle in the trenches.

Kim fits the Buccaneers’ team mentality with his ability to create and exhibits a constant attacking approach. Kim wreaked havoc on opposing defenses last year with his speed and agility. The junior from South Korea led the team with seven assists, and has developed into a weapon offensively.

After redshirting with the Buccaneers in 2011, Rio Torto and Wilkinson have learned the system and are now ready to put the pieces together on the pitch. Both players will contribute this fall and bring another notch to what is an already versatile squad. Furthermore, freshman Renzo Chavez has shown solid technical ability on the ball despite his size. Diego Habib, a Division I transfer from Indiana-Purdue Fort Wayne, will also bolster the midfield with his attacking mindset and tight skill on the ball.

Last fall, the Buccaneers parted ways with one of the best players in program history and the Division II National Player of the Year Mark Anderson. The England native carried the scoring load with 21 goals. Sticking with his team’s philosophy of staying busy, McCrath expects his players up top to “remain active up there.”

Kendall Sealy is poised for a strong season, building upon a solid junior campaign.

“Kendall has the physical tools to be extremely successful. He’s a player that will benefit from our need as a team to distribute the scoring load,” McCrath said.

Sophomores Connor Randel and Eyal Schechter burst onto the scene last fall, and both played key roles in the Bucs’ success. Randel, who has the ability to play the forward and midfield position, finished the year with four goals – all resulting in gamewinners. Schechter started 10 games as a rookie, scoring a goal to go along with five assists.

“Our forwards, like other positions on our team, have great versatility. We certainly have some guys who can do some things whether they are on the ball or playing off the ball,” McCrath said. “We know our scoring isn’t going to come from one guy primarily as was the case with (Anderson) last season. I wouldn’t be surprised if we had four or five players with eight or more goals this season.”

With their rookie seasons under their belt, the tandem of Randel and Schechter will look to take another step forward having gained valuable experience last fall. The forwards provide quickness, speed and size up top, making them difficult to mark in the flow of the game and in set plays.

Newcomer Coombes will also be looked upon to contribute having already become acclimated with the Bucs. Coombes, a native of Newcastle England, practiced with the Buccaneers all of last year, and is ready to step in and play as a freshman. Also joining the Bucs this fall is Patrick Drmola, a highly-touted recruit out of Chelsea, England. The forward is expected to make an immediate impact, and raise the level of play across the board. Drmola has the size, speed and strength, and will certainly be a player to keep an eye on as the season develops. With his maturity and talent, Drmola has the potential to be one of the top players in the conference.

All in all, the Bucs return valuable pieces of what is shaping up to be a championship-contending squad in 2012. With the season opener on the horizon, the Bucs continue to work, improve and mesh as a team. With an abundance of leadership and talent across the board, McCrath and his staff are prepared for the challenge that awaits them this fall.

Former Men's Soccer Standouts Represent Puerto Rico

Fri, 17 Aug 2012 13:25:00 GMT

SAN JUAN, P.R. – A pair of former Buccaneer soccer standouts, Andres Perez and Marco Velez, wore their native uniforms Wednesday night in historic friendly between Puerto Rico and the current World and European champions, Spain.

Ten current Islanders and five former Islanders were given the honor to suit up against the world’s best, including Perez and Velez.

Perez got the nod to start the match, and Velez came off the bench for Puerto Rico.

It was something of a showcase for former Islander and current New York Red Bull goalkeeper Bill Gaudette, who recorded several spectacular saves, including a block of an El Niño Torres header that earned him the #8 top play on ESPN Deportes. Other Islanders Alumni John Krause (Carolina RailHawks), Scott Jones (Charlotte Eagles), and Cristian Arrieta (Free Agent) featured prominently in the side.

Two first half goals from new Arsenal signing Santi Cazorla and former Gunner skipper Cesc Fabregas were enough to see La Roja (Spain) to victory. Young Puerto-Americano Marc Cintron netted in the 65th to score the most important goal in Puerto Rican football history.

It was a great night for Puerto Rico soccer as well as the Barry University men’s soccer program. Perez and Velez return to action for the Islanders this week.

The friendly was the first match played at the newly renovated Juan Ramón Loubriel Stadium. The Islanders will play their first home match Saturday, August 18th at 7:30 p.m. against the Fort Lauderdale Strikers.

SSC Men's Soccer Preseason Poll Released

Wed, 15 Aug 2012 11:53:00 GMT

WINTER PARK, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team has been tabbed second in the Sunshine State Conference preseason poll.

Lynn has been selected as the preseason favorite to repeat as Sunshine State Conference men’s soccer champions in 2012.

The Fighting Knights collected 192 points in a preseason poll conducted among SSC head coaches and sports information directors. Lynn received 16 first-place votes, the highest total possible since each school’s voters do not rank their own squad.

Barry, which tied for fourth in the 2011 league standings, was selected to place second. The Buccaneers gathered 158 points to narrowly edge Rollins, which was slated to finish third with 157 points. The Tars, who ranked third in last fall’s standings, also received the two remaining first-place votes.

Florida Tech was tabbed to finish fourth with 120 points. Tampa appeared in the fifth spot with 100 points. Saint Leo was predicted to finish sixth, collecting 94 points.

Eckerd (73), Nova Southeastern (41), and Florida Southern (37) rounded out the preseason poll.

Barry returns six starters from the 2011 squad that posted a 12-3-6 overall record and played in the NCAA Division II South Regional final. The Buccaneers compiled a 3-2-3 record in SSC matches.

Among the Barry returning players is a trio of All-SSC honorees from a year ago and are led by a pair of All-Americans in Guilherme Oliveira and Johnny Rodrigues

Oliveira, a midfielder was an all-conference first-team selection in 2011.

Goalkeeper Johnny Rodriuges was also an All-SSC first-teamer, posting a 0.90 goals against average. He recorded 12 wins, including 6 shutouts.

Joong Kim received second-team all-conference honors and defender Joe Conkleton was selected to the Daktronics All-South Region second-team last fall.

The Buccaneers were tabbed No. 12 in the DII preseason poll released earlier this month by the National Soccer Coaches Association of America (NSCAA).

Men's Soccer Tabbed 12th In NSCAA Preseason Poll

Tue, 07 Aug 2012 16:10:00 GMT

KANSAS CITY, KANSAS – Barry University men’s soccer team has been tabbed 12^th in the National Soccer Coaches Association of America’s preseason Division II national poll.

The Bucs ended their 2011 season in a heartbreaking penalty kick shutout against rival Lynn after a double overtime tie (1-1). Barry’s season came to an end in the Regional final against the eventual runner-up for the second consecutive year.

This season the Bucs will have to manage without National Player of the Year, Mark Anderson, but a strong core of veterans with a highly touted recruiting class should push the Bucs into the upper echelon of division II.

Between the pipes the Bucs will look to senior All-American Johnny Rodrigues to anchor their defense and provide leadership. Others such as Guilherme Oliveira, and Joe Conkleton will be asked upon to lead the squad as they find their style in the early part of the season.

McCrath, like every season, has a challenging schedule ahead for his team, but the veteran coach has been there before and is excited for the 2012 campaign. The Sunshine State Conference and the South Region are composed of perennial powers in DII men’s soccer.

The Buccaneers kickoff their season on the road on Aug. 30 when they battle #17 Mars Hill College in Mars Hill, N.C. Barry will then travel to Greenville, Tenn. to face Tusculum on Sep. 1^st before returning to Miami Shores for their home opener against Bentley on Sep. 8.

Men's Soccer Releases Schedule

Wed, 11 Jul 2012 15:26:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Barry’s 2012 men’s soccer schedule has been released by head coach Steve McCrath.

"The 2012 schedule is shaping up to be one of the toughest ever," McCrath said. "In the past we've faced former national champions and NCAA playoff contenders from the previous year. With this plus-4 schedule, it now puts the strongest conference in Division II facing already difficult opponents almost two weeks after the initial game. On top of that, the mental and physical demand of one normal conference game now pits us in direct competition almost constantly. It's near close to the English Premier League - there are no 'off days.'"

The Bucs’ season kicks off on the road for two games. On Aug. 30, the Buccaneers will take on Mars Hill College in North Carolina, and then travel to Greenville, Tenn., to play Tusculum College Sept. 1.

The Bucs play the first of seven home games on Sept. 8, when they host Bentley University. The Bucs look to break a 1-1 all time record against the Falcons, with all games in the series played at Buccaneer Field.

This season, the Bucs get a chance to take on several Sunshine State Conference foes in non-conference matchups with the addition of the “+ 4 model.” For the first time in conference history, the teams will play every team in the league once in the first half of the league schedule. Teams will then play four teams in the conference for games that won’t count in the league standings. Barry’s “+ 4 model” consists of Tampa (Sept. 22), Saint Leo (Oct 9), Lynn (Oct. 24) and Eckerd on Senior Night (Oct. 27). Other non-conference matchups include an away game against a familiar Palm Beach Atlantic team, who the Bucs own a 15-1-1 all-time record in the series, on Sept. 26. The Bucs have faced the Sailfish more than any other opponent outside the SSC.

The rest of the season’s schedule consists of eight matchups against SSC opponents. The Bucs are home four out of the eight conference games, including Lynn (Sept. 19), Tampa (Oct. 3), Rollins (Oct. 6) and Florida Southern (Oct 16). Games against Saint Leo (Sept 15), Eckerd (Sept. 29), Nova Southeastern (Oct. 13) and Florida Tech (Oct. 20) will all be away games.

A game to mark on the calendar is the Senior Night game against Eckerd when the Bucs' nine seniors, Johnny Rodrigues, Guilherme Oliveira, Joe Conkleton, Randy Taylor, Christian Yidios, Houghton Kinsman, Kendall Sealy, Edwin Jean and Fred Perez, will all be honored.

2012 Schedule

Anderson Takes Over NASL Scoring Lead

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 11:36:00 GMT

FT. LAUDERDALE, Fla.—Mark Anderson scored twice to lead the Ft. Lauderdale Strikers over the Carolina Railhawks 2-1 at Lockhart Stadium on Saturday.

Anderson, making just his seventh start of the season, connected twice for just the first time in his pro career. The pair gives him seven goals for the season, equaling his starts, and the scoring lead in the North American Soccer League.

"It was good to score two goals as I've been scoring one and one and one," Anderson said. "It's nice to get a break and get the win."

Anderson tallied his first goal just 4:40 into the game, the fastest goal this season for the Strikers and second fastest in the league. His shot from 25 yards deflected off a Carolina defender, redirecting it past the Railhawks’ keeper.

His second goal was a thing of beauty. Strikers defender Scott Lorenz beat a Carolina defender deep in the box, centering the ball just off the back line. Anderson, streaking toward the goal, redirected the pass to the far post for a two goal lead at the 45th minute.

"Mark has been special," Strikers coach Daryl Shore said. "He just finds a knack for the goal. To be fair, tonight the guys did a good job finding him as well."

It was the Strikers' (5-5-4, 19 points) third straight win at home, while snapping the RailHawks' (4-5-5, 17 points) four game winning streak. The Strikers improved to 5-1-2 at home.

The Strikers next make their annual trip to face the Tampa Bay Rowdies on July 4^th at 6:30 p.m. EDT at Al Lang Stadium. The Strikers can pass the Rowdies in the NASL Standings with a win as they sit just two points behind Tampa Bay.

Barry Athletics Excels in Classroom

Tue, 12 Jun 2012 10:04:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. — A trend of academic excellence that began more than a decade ago continues for Barry Athletics as the Buccaneers combined to post a 3.237 grade point average in the Spring '12 semester. The term was the 18^th straight in which the department has been above 3.0, and with a 3.268 GPA, it was the 21^st straight with a cumulative GPA above 3.0.

The Bucs set a number of records in the spring. There were 17 undergraduates and one graduate student with a 4.0 GPA, which was a record for both the total and the percentage (9.6 percent) to have a spotless term GPA in the spring. The record-setting group was led by a trio of seniors who each earned their fifth President’s List awards: Anne Fourdraine (women’s golf), Daniel Stapff (men’s golf) and Allie Llaneras (women’s soccer). Sofia Jakobsson (women’s soccer) and Alex Decker (baseball) picked up their third awards, while Ziena Cline (women’s soccer), Joe Conkleton (men’s soccer), Johnny Rodrigues (men’s soccer) and Haley Struthers (women’s soccer) earned their second. The rest of the group, Renee Forcier (rowing), Harold Holness (baseball), Melissa Madrid (women’s soccer), Daniela Murray (women’s golf), Julio Ramos (baseball), Connor Randel (men’s soccer), Julie Stas (women’s tennis) and Kris Wilkinson (men’s soccer), earned their first. Men’s soccer’s Lucas Noboa earned a 4.0 in his first term in graduate school.

“We all are very proud of our student-athletes and their accomplishments this past year both academically & athletically,” Director of Athletics Mike Covone said. “Based on our Academic Success Rates, student achievements, service and collaboration, and team accomplishments on the field, on the water and on the courts, we are fulfilling Barry’s mission while making a difference in the community.”

For the term, 69.5 percent of all student-athletes had a spring term GPA of 3.0 or higher, which topped the mark of 69 percent set in the fall. The previous high before this year was 67.2 percent in the spring of 2010.

Also, 72.5 percent of all student-athletes currently have a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher, besting the total of 67.8 set in spring of 2011.

The women’s golf team, fresh off a fourth-place finish at the national tournament, continues to lead the program in both term and cumulative GPA. The linksters posted a 3.659 term GPA, and maintain a 3.632 cumulative mark among the seven members of the team. Men’s soccer was second, and best among the men’s teams, with a term mark of 3.496 and a 3.444 cumulative GPA.

“I'm very excited about the outstanding effort and academic show of our student-athletes,” said Maritza Ryder, Assistant Dean of Barry’s School of Human Performance & Leisure Sciences who oversees academic services. “These student-athletes have embraced and exceeded a tradition of exemplary academic performance.

"Setting a strong standard for excellence and consistently emphasizing its importance for the good of the student-athletes and their futures creates a culture for achievement and sets a standard for our work each day. I'm thrilled for the student-athletes in their academic and athletic performances, and am very thankful for the intentional and collective efforts of our ECA, faculty, advisors, coaches, administrators, tutors and staff that supports these young folks reach their life and college goals.”

Mark Anderson Collects First Career Goal

Fri, 04 May 2012 12:16:00 GMT

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. – Barry University soccer standout Mark Anderson scored his first career goal Wednesday night, lifting the Strikers to a 3-3 come-from-behind draw in Carolina.

The Strikers trailed 3-1 in the 65^th minute, but pulled within a goal when second-half substitute Darnell King made a long run into the penalty area and laid an excellent pass off to Walter Restrepo, who shot high and away from the reach of RailHawks goalkeeper Ray Burse.

King would have to be substituted in the 73rd minute with an apparent hamstring injury. His replacement, Mark Anderson, would be the difference maker for the Strikers. In the 77th minute, Anderson collected a Restrepo pass near the top right corner of the box, and sent a curling shot over the diving hand of Burse into the far corner of the goal to tie the match at 3-3.

"The last goal was unbelievable," said Strikers head coach Daryl Shore. "We're just happy to get out of here with a point."

The Strikers currently sit in second place in the standings with nine points, just one back of the league-leading Puerto Rico Islanders.

Anderson and the Strikers will travel to Bayamon, Puerto Rico to battle the Islanders this Saturday beginning at 7:30 p.m.

You can watch a replay of Anderson’s game-tying goal HERE. The goal comes in the 77’, 1:30 into the game footage.

Summer Soccer Camp At Barry

Thu, 03 May 2012 11:09:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer assistant coach Henry Apaloo, and former Buccaneer Chris Rich will once again host their annual “Soccer Camp at Barry University” this summer.

The camp consists of a skills development program designed for kids of all skill levels. Sessions will focus on improving the player’s technical and tactical skills while creating a fun and memorable experience for all participants.

Apaloo is a native of Manchester, England where he came up through the Premiere League Academy while playing for Blackburn Rovers, Manchester United, Bolton Wanderers. In his native England, he also spent two years at Football League side Preston North End and went on to play for the England National Futsal Team.

After arriving at Barry in 2004, Apaloo helped the Bucs to 35-27-3 record. Apaloo made an immediate impact for the Bucs, starting all 16 games as a freshman, scoring three goals and seven assists. Apaloo continued his success as a sophomore with two goals and four assists. During the 2006 and 2007 seasons, Apaloo led the team in both goals and assists, scoring 11 goals with seven assists in 2006 and seven goals with five assists in 2007.

Apaloo was a three-time All-SSC selection and the first ever Buccaneer selected to the Daktronics All-South Region Team.

Men's Soccer Closes Spring Season Versus Real España

Tue, 10 Apr 2012 14:19:00 GMT

MIAMI SHORES, Fla. – Barry University men’s soccer team will look to wrap up a successful spring season this Saturday when the Buccaneers host Real España this Saturday at Buccaneer Field.

This spring, the Bucs won the fourth annual South Florida Cup, which includes the likes of Florida International, Florida Atlantic, Palm Beach Atlantic, Saint Thomas, Nova Southeastern and Lynn. The Bucs finished with a 5-1 mark, scoring eight goals, and only allowing two during the six-game tournament.

Real España is a Honduran football club, which currently plays in the National Honduran League in San Pedro Sula, Cortes, Honduras.

Real España was founded on July 14, 1929, and received the Spanish designation "Real" – bestowed upon the team by King Juan Carlos I in 1977 – which translates to English as "Royal." Therefore, Real España is the only football club outside of Spain to be granted such title by the Spanish Monarchy.

España is also considered to be one of the most accomplished Honduran football clubs, and its popularity is recognized outside of Honduras' boundaries.

One of the top clubs in Honduras, Real España has won 10 Liga Nacional titles, with the most recent championship coming during the 2010-11 campaign. Los Aurinegros will enter the match after finishing as runner- up during the 2011 Honduran Apertura season.

The April 14 match between the Bucs and Los Aurinegros begins at 4:30 p.m., and is open free of charge to the public.
