1983 Miracle Yearbook

SPORTS Varsity Soccer Despite nagging injuries and a slow start, the Jackets came back to post another winning season and miss the NCCAA Na- tionals by only one game. The 1982 Soccer team finished the season one game away from returning to the NCCAA Nationals in Orlands?. The Cedarville College squad had a successful season,but the 11- 6-1 record does not tell the whole story. Injuries nagged the team throughout the year, and the bench did a fine job stepping in to help produce another winning season. About midway through their schedule,the Jackets stood at 4-4; how- ever, they came on strong to compile six wins, three losses, and one tie in the second half of the season. Defense played strong, allowing an average of only 1.3 goals per game and recording six shutouts. Cedarville and Malone split the MOC title, sharing undefeated conference records and a 0-0 tie between them. Tom Fite, Mark Price, and Dan LeLancey were voted to the NAIA All-District 22second team. Jeff Smith was given the Coach's Award. Gary Layton and James Fi- scher shared honors for the Most Valuable Player.
