First up: women\u2019s soccer welcomes Montclair State University to Lions Stadium on Oct. 4. The teams\u2019 last matchup was one for the ages: After 110 minutes of scoreless soccer, the Lions defeated the Red Hawks on penalty kicks to capture the New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC) championship. On Oct. 11, TCNJ\u2019s field hockey team welcomes the Red Hawks to Lions Stadium. This time, it\u2019s the Lions looking to avenge a 1\u20130 loss to the Red Hawks in last year\u2019s NJAC championship game.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\">MEN\u2019S SOCCER&gt;\u00a0<\/span> During George Nazario\u2019s 20 years as head coach, the Lions have competed in four NCAA Division III Championship tournaments, winning it all in 1996. Nazario entered the 2014 campaign just eight wins shy of his 200th career victory. The Lions are scheduled to play five matches on campus in October\u2014perhaps the perfect opportunity for Nazario to get his milestone win on his home turf.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #00ccff;\">WOMEN\u2019S CROSS COUNTRY&gt;\u00a0<\/span> Seniors Tara Nealon, Megan Stack, Jillian Manzo and Liz Johnson plan to steer the Lions to a second consecutive appearance at the NCAA Division III Cross Country National Championships in November.

Last year, Brackett averaged 16.4 points per game, while leading the conference in rebounds per game (13.1) and minutes per game (36.0). Those numbers were good enough to earn him NJAC first team and Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) second team honors.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Players, teams and games you won\u2019t want to miss this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":9071,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[72,16,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9070","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fall-2014","category-lions-roar","category-on-campus"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tcnjmagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9070","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tcnjmagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tcnjmagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tcnjmagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tcnjmagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9070"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.tcnjmagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9070\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tcnjmagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/9071"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.tcnjmagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9070"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tcnjmagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9070"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.tcnjmagazine.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9070"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
