After a change of both time and venue for Middlebury’s match against St. Michael’s College last weekend the MCRC fought their way to a final score of 60-8.

All good things must come to an end. The Middlebury men’s soccer team’s 673-minute shutout streak that dated back to overtime of the 2009 NESCAC final game was snapped last weekend, as Colby scored two minutes before the end of the first half of Saturday’s 2-1 double-overtime loss. The Panthers ...
The Panthers dropped to 1-1 on Saturday, losing to NESCAC rival Colby 38-27.
