Friday marks a first for the Monmouth University women's soccer team and a homecoming for Monmouth assistant coach Bonnie Young.
""It's going to be very, very much the same but coming from a different bench,'' said Young, a former honorable mention All-America at Penn State who the Hawks face 5 p.m. in an opening game of the 2007 NCAA College Cup at University Park, Pa.
The game marks the first appearance in the field of 64 for Northeast Conference Tournament champion Monmouth (12-4-4). Hofstra (17-3-0) and Ohio State (12-9-1) are the other two teams in the bracket.
Big 10 regular season champion Penn State (16-3-2) is the number-one seed in the Region and the number-six ranked team in the country.
The Monmouth attack usually revolves around NEC Player of the Year Amy Hoyer and sophomore forward Andrea Lopez (Ocean Township), the 2006 NEC Player and Rookie of the Year.
Hoyer and Lopez lead Monmouth with five goals apiece. Lopez connected for last Sunday's game-winner vs. Sacred Heart.[PARA]
Sheree Gray, a Toms River High School South graduate, is a junior midfielder for the Nitanny Lions.
Sophomore Katie Schopefer leads Penn State with 14 goals and senior Aubrey Aden-Buie has 10.
Today's winners meet in the second round 1 p.m. Sunday at Penn State.
