James and MacDonald Senior Showmanship Help Lions Take the Win Over JMU

UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. - Penn State men's soccer team shutout James Madison in a 2-0 victory Tuesday night at Jeffery Field. The team is now 2-1-1 for the season.

After a tough loss against Temple, the Nittany Lions entered the match against JMU focused and ready for another victory.

The first half performance was 'ridiculous,'" said Head Coach Bob Warming. "We haven't beat James Madison since 1998. The most satisfying part, however, was the way the team took over. The win today was huge going into the Big Ten this weekend."

With such a young team this year, the seniors on the squad have been stepping up as the leaders, two seniors who specifically shined against JMU were veteran midfielders Brian James and Kyle MacDonald.
