Corrections

In “Men’s soccer falls 1-0 in PL Championship” published on Nov. 16, The Eagle incorrectly reported that red shirt senior Cooper Bryant was ejected for spitting in an official’s face. In fact, according to a report from the Patriot League, he was ejected for using abusive language towards an official. Bryant violated a different subsection of the same rule; instead of rule 12.15.4 it was rule 12.15.7.
