Rockford
men's soccer team cancels remainder of season
VERONA,
Wis. -- The Northern Athletics Conference has been notified that
Rockford College is canceling the remainder of their men's soccer
season.
The following
statement has been issued by Dr. G. Steven Larson, Northern
Athletics Conference Commissioner:
"Due to the lack of sufficient numbers of participants, Rockford
College is canceling the remainder of its men's soccer season
for 2006 effective immediately. The Rockford athletic staff has
made every effort to try to find more players to finish the
season. However, without a minimum complement of eleven players,
it was in the best interests of the student-athletes of both
Rockford and its opponents that the remainder of the season be
canceled.
In terms of the Northern Athletics Conference standings, the
games that have already been played vs. Rockford will not count
in the conference standings. However, the games played vs.
Rockford will count in the overall record for those teams."
To date the Regents (0-6) have
played only two Northern Athletics Conference opponents, Concordia University Wisconsin and Edgewood College. Northern Athletics
Conference teams that have not yet played Rockford will be allowed
to schedule another opponent in their place, according to the NCAA
Championships Committee.
