Two Haven Men's Soccer Players Named To All-Region Squad

   
  (Lock Haven, Pa.) -  Andrew Battersby (Rotherham, England/St. Bernard’s) and Morten Brorby (Jevnaker, Norway/Jevnaker), both members of the Lock Haven University of Pennsylvania men’s soccer team, were selected to the recently released NSCAA-Adidas All-Northeast Regional Team.  
            A freshman forward, Andrew Battersby earned a First Team All-Northeast Region selection after leading The Haven in scoring with 14 goals and three assists for 31 points.  He finished fourth in the PSAC in scoring (1.94/gm), and third in goals (.88/gm).  Battersby was the PSAC Rookie of the Year and a first team all-conference pick.  He is the only freshman to earn a spot on the regional First Team, and as a member of the first team, is eligible to receive All-America honors.

             Morten Brorby, a senior defender, was selected to the Second Team All-Northeast Region, his second straight appearance on the all-region list after earning First Team honors in 2000.  An integral member of the Bald Eagle defense, Brorby helped hold opponents to only 20 total goals this season, a 1.11 per game average, and also aided in nine shutout victories.  He added four goals for eight points this season. Brorby is also a four-time All-PSAC player.
          The Lock Haven men’s soccer team wrapped up the 2001 season with a 12-5-1 overall mark and a 3-4-1 record in the PSAC, narrowly missing the conference playoffs.
