Especially with Arie Ammann coming in. Mike Ammann was a mentor for Michael Behonick. With Behonick leaving for Pitt, and no one named as a coach, it should be interesting for the goalkeepers. Hopefully, Warming can get someone on board by the season. He is very controlling, so maybe he wants to go ahead with what he has?

From Penn State Men's Soccer's FB page: "Game balls are in! Be sure to be at#PennStateFutbol's home opener Sept. 2!" Paradise of a pitch at the Nittany Lion's Jeffrey Field. (Yes, that's real grass, not artificial turf.)
Preseason result for PSU vs. Omaha that was posted on Omaha's Twitter feed ... Omaha Men's Soccer@OmahaMSOC Aug 13 Mavs fall 2-1 at Penn State. Great exhibition with plenty to work on. Ibisevic with the goal and also drew a PK. Noor Hamadi w/ an assist.
From this shot (from this video: http://snpy.tv/2br8agk ) at preseason, it looks like Coach Warming, an former GK himself, is himself working with the Penn State keepers at least part of the time ...

Maybe they should suit up that chunky kicker from the football team who played club soccer with Christian Pulisic.

Not sure what Evan Finney's plans are. And yes, the PSU soccer roster does list him as a red shirt Junior.

Summing up ... Pro: Wins over Michigan State and Wisconsin. Leading twice and taking Maryland at Maryland to OT before going down 3-2 (with MD's first two goals to tie the score both coming via PKs). Tie vs. Stanford at Stanford. Con: No W's on the road. All the best to the PSU soccer seniors. Thanks for the hard work and great memories, men.
