1989 Tiger Soccer OutlookThe Transition has been made, and the Memphis State Tiger soccer team is prepared

for the challenges that lie ahead in 1989.Head coach Chris Bartels took hold of the MSU soccer reigns last season. And, despite

the loss of his top players (Morton Akerfors and Trevor Buckland), due to injuries,Bartels' troops were able to complete the 1988 season with a 8-7-3 record.

"The 1988 season was a learning experience for everybody involved with the MSUsoccer program," explained Bartels. "I had to get to know the players and they had tolearn what I expected from them."

According to Bartels 1989 should be a "staircase" season for his Tiger troop."With the personnel we have coming back, and with the excellent player that we have

signed, we should have a lot more depth," Bartels said.Back to lead the Tigers through a heavily-armed schedule are seniors Buckland and

Eddie Knight as well as junior standout Akerfors."Trevor is a true All-America candidate," said Bartels. "There is not a better sweeper

in the country."Despite missing the final six games of the '88 season, Buckland scored six goals and

passed out four assists. He ranked third on the Tiger statistical charts with 16 points.Akerfors, Memphis State's third all-time leading scorer (28), will take command of

the Tigers' frontline attack. A two-year starter, Akerfors scored 11 goals prior toincurring an ankle injury during the Georgia State game that sidelined him for theremainder of the 1988 season.

Knight is the Tiger's only veteran defender due to the loss of Jeff Konieczny andScott Turner. An intimidating force in the backfield, Knight will be accompaniedby sophomore Johnny Norris who saw action in 16 games in 1988.

Although the Tigers may need reinforcements up front and in the backfield, they areheavily equipped in the midfield. Back from last year's squad are sophomores PatAbbott, Jim Hink, Greg Locks and Rob Winfrey. All four players saw plenty of actionas freshmen.

Protecting the home net will be returning starter Troy Norwood, a 5-10 sophomorewho started 15 games as a freshman. He made 70 saves on 91 shots, giving up 21 goalsfor a 1.29 goals per game average.

Norwood's backup will be junior Todd Scarpace who played in six games last season.Bartels has recruited from afar, and was able to sign some international players that

should add flair to the Tiger program.Gareth O'Sullivan, is from Ballina, Ireland, and Volker Schumann is a native of West

Germany.Missouri is a heavily recruited state and Bartels was able to lure John Arrandale

(Grandview), Russ Gaither (Belton) and Frank Pileggi (Kansas City) to Tigertown.Bartels has added a crop of Tennessee products: Memphis - Chris Fletcher, Rick

Morris, Chris Long, and Jeff Rogers; Franklin - Todd Mitchell; Chattanooga - BruceMartin; Cleveland - Gerald Crawford; and Columbia - Carl Embry.

"If we can stay healthy, and if our newcomers make the transition easily, our next stepup the ladder of success should be smooth," Bartels said.

But with every step there are obstacles which this year include 21 collegiate opponents.Southern Ulinois-Edwardsville was ranked in the Midwest Region, while Illinois Statereceived a national ranking for part of the 1988 season, and Evansville was ranked inthe top five nationally.

The MSU Tigers will host the 1989 Metro Conference Tournament, Nov. 4-5.

1988 Year In ReviewThe 1988 Memphis State soccer team was rich with good, young talent-laden players."The season was a mild success," first year head coach Chris Bartels said.Bart els joined the team after being the general manager of the Memphis Storm

professional soccer team.As the season got underway, the team knew it was extremely youthful. Only one

player, David Tappen, had played for three full years.The first game of the 1988 season was against former national power, Alabama

A&M. The Tiger,s playing at home, prevailed with an impressive 4-1 win. Sophomorestandout, Morten Akerfors led the team in scoring with two goals.

The Tigers' opening game exuberance was short lived as they set out on the road forfive games. During that five game road trip, the team won only one game and tied oneduring a stretch in which they only scored a total of nine goals. The road trip endedwith loses to North Carolina-Charlotte, Missouri-St. Louis and Marquette.

The team's goal-scoring doldrums ended when they returned to Memphis to play cityrival Rhodes College. Akerfors and senior Donal McDonagh each had three goals inthe Tiger's 9-0 victory. Freshman goalkeeper Troy Norwood earned his first collegiateshutout.

The Tigers' winning ways continued as the team went undefeated in their next fivematches.

McDonagh became the school's all-time leading scorer in just 48 games scoring 30goals, and the Tigers still had 10 games left in the 1988 season.

"It was a great feeling for me to have reached the record," McDonagh said.He explained that everyone basically knew he was going to achieve the record, but

they didn't know when.Back on the winning track, the Tigers arrived in Atlanta, Ga., to face Georgia State

bearing a 6-3-2 record. However, all good things must come to an end. Despite the factthe Tigers tied the Panthers, co-captain Trevor Buckland and scoring sensationAkerfors both went down with season ending injuries. Buckland broke his left arm andAkerfors severely twisted his ankle.

With the loss of Ackerfors and Buckland the Tigers were able to win only two of theirfinal six regular season games.

"They (Buckland and Akerfors) were keys to our season," Bartels said. "When theywere lost, we seemed to lose our consistency."

Without those two top players the team had extreme difficulty scoring goals.Opponents began double-teaming the Tigers other top scorers, McDonagh and CarlSpilker. The Tigers scored only four goals in their final five games and were held scorelessin three of those five games.

McDonagh finished his three year career with 89 points. His 35-point performancein his last season fell only two points shy of the schools record for most points in a season.

Senior David Tappan had participated in 78 games while at MSU. This mark rankedhim second with John Cooke (1984-87) for most games played in a career.

Looking at the Tigers from a different perspective, one saw that their 8-7-3 recorddid not indicate the intensity the players had throughout the season.

Memphis State University

The roots of Memphis State University date back to September 15, 1912, with theestablishment and opening of the West Tennessee Normal School, which provided forthe training of primary and secondary education teachers. However, the seeds for thenormal school's creation were shown three years earlier, in 1909, when the TennesseeGeneral Assembly passed the General Education law calling for the establishment andmaintenance of three normal schools, one located in each of the three grand divisionsof the state.

The eastern edge of Memphis became the site for the West Tennessee State NormalSchool, which in 1925 became the West Tennessee State Teachers College. In 1941, theCollege's curriculum in liberal arts was expanded, and the name was changed toMemphis State College, and an institution serving three to four thousand students. Theundergraduate program was re-organized into three schools and a graduate school wasadded in 1951.

On July 1, 1957, Memphis State achieved its status as a university and has sinceexpanded its degree programs to serve a student population of over 20,000.

When classes first met at West Tennessee Normal School in the autumn of 1912,athletics were an important part of activities offered to students.

Since that time, working hand-in-hand, Memphis State University and the athleticdepartment have made great progress in growth and development. Tiger football beganin 1912. Tiger basketball was started in 1920 and in just 35 years was playing in the finalsof the NIT in New York. Both the Tiger football and basketball teams have enjoyedmore than 40-winning seasons since becoming a part of the Memphis State campus life.

Following World War II, MSU reactivated the football, basketball and baseballprograms and added track, cross country, golf, tennis, soccer and volleyball. All haveflourished and have reached the Division I-A status.

The goals of the University and the athletic department are one in the same: to continuethe growth and development of student-athletes that is the tradition of Memphis StateUniversity.
