Phillips Earns WHAC 1st Team Honors; VanLaan 2nd Team

The women's soccer team played most of the season with only a few subs to spare and that meant the starters had to log many minutes.  Ashley Phillips and Leah Vanlaan headlined those players who logged the minutes and were awarded by the WHAC last week by making the All-Conference Teams.  Phillips, who led the Panthers in goals, earned 1st Team honors while Vanlaan made the 2nd team.  Daniella Bugli also made an impact as she was chosen by the coaches as an honorable mention accolade.  Shayla Crossman was chosen as the Champions of Character award winner.

Davenport to Host Aquinas for WHAC Championship on Tuesday, October 30 at 2:00 PM

The Panthers have set up a showdown with Aquinas College on Tuesday, October 31 for the WHAC Championship as they defeated Cornerstone University today 2-1.  The win is the 11th of the season for DU as they upped their record to 11-5-1.  Tony Deakin, the 2007 WHAC Player of the Year, got the scoring going in the first half as he put a ball away off the assist of Bryant Roos and Juha Pahkala at the 31:20 mark.  The game then turned into a defensive battle as neither team could find the back of the net.  Davenport outshot the Golden Eagles 19-10 with many of those shots coming late in the first half and towards the middle of the 2nd half.  The Panthers then added an insurance goal at 55:43 when Elfid Kovacevic redirected a cross by Duvare Minto.  Cornerstone made the game exciting in the last five minutes when Brad Verburg scored on a mis-played ball by the Panthers defender and almost tied the game up in the final few minutes with a fury of shots.  The game with Aquinas on Tuesday will be at the South Christian Athletic Park and the time of the game will be a 2:00 kickoff.
