Frostburg State Seeded Second In The ECAC South Men's Soccer Tournament; Bobcats To Host Marywood In Wednesday's First Round

The Frostburg State University men's soccer team received word earlier this afternoon that is has been selected as the No. 2 seed in the 2012 ECAC South Region Tournament that starts on Wednesday, Nov. 7.

The second seed awards FSU (12-2-4) with a first round home game and the Bobcats will host seventh seeded Marywood (Pa.) (10-6-3) on Wednesday at Bobcat Stadium. A time has yet to be determined.

Both FSU and MU enter the ECAC's having won two of their last three games while both lost in the semifinals of their conference tournaments. Frostburg is making its second-consecutive trip to the ECAC Tournament.

Penn State Behrend earned the overall top seed with a 16-4 overall record. The Lions will host No. 8 seed La Roche (9-9) in the first round on Wednesday evening. The two schools battled during the regular season with Behrend capturing a 2-1 win.

Because of their top seed, the Lions will host the semifinals and finals on Saturday, Nov. 10, and Sunday, Nov. 11. If PSB loses its opening round match and FSU defeats Marywood, the semifinals and finals will run through Frostburg.

The other first round matchups feature No. 6 Neumann at No. 3 Lebanon Valley and No. 5 Penn State Abingdon at No. 4 Alvernia.
