The Crusaders traveled away over the weekend to take on Penn St. Brandywine and Valley Forge.  The weekend started rough for the Crusaders, falling to Penn St. Brandywine 5-0.  However, the team had to push that loss out of the heads with the quick turnaround.  The next day the Crusaders traveled to Valley Forge.  After the first half the they were in a tight spot losing 1-0.  They came out of half with renewed strength and pulled together to score 3 goals; one by, sophomore, Mark LaRochelle and two by the teams leading goal scorer, sophomore, Santiago Pardo Gasque.  After going 1-1 over the weekend the Crusaders are now 3-4 on the year.  They hope their second half vs. Valley Forge carries over into their two home games this upcoming week.
