Penn College women's soccer players get acquainted with their young guests – members of the Williamsport Lions U10 Girls soccer teams – before the teams walk onto UPMC Athletic Field for a pre-game ceremony.

Members of the Williamsport Lions U10 Girls travel soccer teams recently enjoyed connecting with Penn College women’s soccer players. The college team’s head coach, Ian T. Scheller, and assistant coach, Jakob A. LeMay, held a “Youth Night” and invited the local youngsters to the UPMC Field to watch the pre-game warmups of their “older counterparts” and to join with the Wildcat athletes during player introductions and the national anthem. It was an exciting outing for the little Lions!
