      A

      a

      That
      was
      basically
     
     
      all
      that
      kept
      two
      UPEI
      Panther
     
     
      teams
      from
      claiming
      AUAA
     
     
      titles
      six
      months
      ago.
      Who
     
     
      could
      forget
      the
      men’s
      hockey
     
     
      team
      and
      their
      incredible

      Dalhousie
      to
      double
      overtime
     
     
      in
      the
      final
      in
      Halifax.
     
    

    
     
      As
      the
      1996-97
      season
     
     
      gets
      underway,
      there
      seems
      to
     
     
      be
      a
      high
      level
      of
      optimism
     
     
      surrounding
      the
      fall
      sports
      as
     
     
      well
     
    

    
     
      After
      tearing
      out
      of
      the
     
     
      blocks,
      the
      men’s
      soccer
      team
     
     
      has
      struggled
      as
      if
      late
      but
      are
     
     
      still
      in
      the
      midst
      of
      the
      play
      off
     
     
      picture
      with
      2-2-3
      record.
      After
     
     
      dropping
      a
      4-0
      decision
      to
     
     
      Dalhousie
      last
      Saturday,
      the
     
     
      Panthers
      returned
      on
      Sunday
     
     
      and
      played
      toa
      scoreless
      draw
     
     
      at
      MacAdam
      Field
      with
     
     
      Acadia.
      The
      Panthers
      have
     
     
      been
      lead
      offensively
      thus
      far
     
     
      by
      James
      Johnson
      who
      has
     
    
   
   
    
     
      scored
      three
      goals.

      tance
      of
      UPEI’s
      remaining
     
     
      games
      seems
      to
      be
      magnified
     
     
      as
      well,
      because
      of
      the
      parity
     
     
      in
      the
      conference.
