Under the bright lights of the playoffs the C.W. Post Men’s Soccer team (7-8-2) went head-to-head against ECC rival Dowling College (10-1-5) that ended in a thrilling upset for the Pioneers.

Greetings Post Pioneer!
I am an avid reader of the Pioneer and would like to say your doing a great job! I do however have a suggestion. What about a page for job opportunities on campus. I work at the Hilllwood Commons Information Desk and students always ask, “Whose hiring!” I send them to the Pep Office, but why not have help wanted ads for jobs that are searching for work study or budget students. Just throwing it out there.

C.W. Post’s Senior Assistant Director of Student Life has successfully completed his first round of P90X, and he’s ready for more. Eric Zirlinger, 30, began the fitness program five months ago. He has since lost 50 pounds and gone from a 33” to a 28” waistline. “I feel… glorious,” Zirlinger said with a smile. “I’ve lost the weight of my bulldog.”
The P90X fitness program is a 90-day program that is designed to get its users “ripped” in 90 days. It consists of working out six days a week, and parallels a nutrition plan.
