The Binghamton University men’s soccer team, the defending America East champion, is by far BU’s most successful team. Their home opener is scheduled for 7 p.m. tomorrow against Cornell, under the lights at the new Bearcat Sports Complex. Here are some faces you need to recognize when you charge the field after another Bearcats win, as told by junior midfielder Cody Germain.

Adam Chavez

Senior, backfielder, No. 8

Cody says: ‘Abby is probably our best defender on the team. He’s incredibly strong, he’s got great positioning and he distributes the ball very well.’

Barry Neville

Junior, backfielder, No. 6

Cody says: ‘Great player on the field, great player that connects the game really well for us. From the center part he pretty much controls the tempo of how we play.’

Justin Leskow

Junior, backfielder, No. 17

Cody says: ‘Lots of energy on the field, he’s extremely quick on the wing. Probably the leading person that’s going to goal right now. He beats people one-on-one.’

Cody Germain

Junior, midfielder, No. 22

Cody says: ‘I think I bring a strong attack. I’m more attack-oriented. I like to go to goal and I try to get people involved at the top of the box and split the ball in.’

Other faces to recognize include sophomore redshirt goalkeeper Jason Stenta, No. 23, who was the backup at the beginning of last season and led the team to its title run. Junior backfielder Liam Carson, No. 5, is integral to the back line along with Chavez. Senior midfielder Matt Narode, No. 10, is one of BU’s top scoring threats.
