Vikings Continue On a Roll in Soccer Action
CHICAGO, IL (October 2, 2003) - North Park University (NPU) got some help from a
couple of Covenant students as it edged Benedictine University in a 1-0
non-league men's soccer match on Tuesday.
Sophomore Jamie Rose from Mat-Su Covenant Church in Wasilla, Alaska, scored
the game's only goal midway through the second half. Freshman Austin Person
of First Covenant Church, Omaha, Nebraska, played the second half in goal
for the Vikings and preserved the shutout.
Last Saturday, the Vikings beat visiting Illinois Wesleyan 3-1 in a College
Conference of Illinois and Wisconsin (CCIW) match. Isaac Lee scored two
goals against the Titan and was named CCIW Player of the Week for his
efforts. Thus far, Lee has totaled four goals and five assists, both team
highs.
Adam Johnson, who attended Community Covenant Church, East Bridgewater,
Massachusetts, as a youth, added two assists in the Illinois Wesleyan game.
NPU has won four straight contests and is 7-1-2 overall, 2-0 in CCIW play.
The Vikings host Concordia University of River Forest, Illinois, in a 3
p.m. non-league game Saturday.
