STORYLINE
The Huskies travel to East Stroudsburg on Wednesday, Sept. 24 looking to win their fourth straight match.
 
LAST TIME OUT
(Box Score) For the second time in three games Bloomsburg scored five goals, this time on its way to a 5-1 win over Pitt-Johnstown Saturday, Sept 20. The win was the third in a row for the Huskies. Josh Smith (Mechanicsburg/Mechanicsburg) stole the ball just outside the box then passed it to a cutting Anthony Cerda (Budd Lake, NJ/Mount Olive) who drilled the ball to the right corner for a 1-0 lead. The Huskies made it 2-0 in the 18th minute when Mike Bamford (Doylestown/Central Bucks West), on a throw-in, threw a strike across the field where Roma Laboda headed the ball in. Bloomsburg stretched its lead to 3-0 about six minutes later when Cameron Cleary (Pleasanton, CA/Amador Valley) took a pass from Nick Izzo (Frankford, DE/Indian River) and used his left foot to send the ball past the UPJ goalie. Then just before halftime Brian Kilcoyne (Bensalem/Bensalem) scored unassisted to make it 4-0. The last goal came from Austin Transue (Langhorne/Neshaminy) who picked up a missed shot from teammate James Kiama (Shippensburg/Shippensburg).
 
LAST MEETING
(Box Score) The Huskies ended their 2013 season by defeating East Stroudsburg, 1-0, in a Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) matchup. In the second half Fran Miller (Doylestown/Central Bucks East) scored the lone goal of the game for Bloomsburg when Matt Zima (Newtown/Council Rock North) crossed the ball in from the sideline and Miller headed it over the goalkeeper.  This gave the Huskies a 1-0 lead with just over 15 minutes to play in the game.
