earning three all-conference awards.

Gibboney earns Curry Coach
of the Year award
Lycoming College men’s soccer head
coach Nate Gibboney received the sixth
annual Robb Darrow Curry Coach of the
Year award, during the Athletics Hall of
Fame induction ceremony.
Gibboney guided the Warriors
through one of the most successful
seasons in the men’s soccer program’s
57-year history, capping the year with
the program’s first-ever conference title
and NCAA Division III Tournament
appearance.
Gibboney became the first rookie
coach in program history to record a
10-win season, posting an 11-8-4 debut.

Warriors allowed just 0.91 goals per
game, the fifth-lowest in school history,

10 shutouts during the season.
Athletic department
announces reorganization
To begin the 2013-14 academic year,
Lycoming College director of athletics
Mike Clark ’93 announced several
administrative changes within the
department. Women’s soccer coach Eric
Lewis and women’s basketball coach and
Senior Woman Administrator Christen
Ditzler have each added the titles and
responsibilities of assistant director of
athletics. In addition, Joe Guistina has
been promoted to associate director of
athletics from assistant.
The addition of two assistant athletic
directors came after a study of the
administrative setup of fellow Middle
Atlantic Conference schools as well as the
entire Division III landscape. It allows
Lycoming to put a greater emphasis on
the day-to-day athletics operations as
well as areas such as compliance and
facility management.
“I am extremely happy that Eric and
Chris have welcomed their new roles
within the athletic
department,” Clark
said. “Eric has
quickly become
an invaluable
resource in our
department. He
has a long history
with Division III
athletics and he has
previously served
as a compliance
coordinator, which
makes him a
natural fit for this
role. Chris is an
outstanding SWA
and she is someone
who truly cares for
all the athletes at
this school. Being
able to expand her role is something that
we feel is very important for the success
of the department.”
