Following a tough double-overtime loss to Nyack College, the C.W. Post Men’s Soccer team bounced back to beat Queens College 2-0 in a must-win game to clinch a spot for the ECC Championships.
Post was in for a challenge, taking on 13th-ranked Bloomsburg University at Hickox Field, for the final home game of the season this past Saturday.
The Pioneer Field Hockey team suffered a 4-3 triple-overtime shootout loss at the hands of Kutztown University after coming back from a two goal deficit.
The C.W. Post Men’s and Women’s Cross Country team were back in action this past Saturday as both teams competed in the St. Josephs College Invitational in Kings Park, NY.
On both sides the Cross Country squad put on exceptional performances in the race that had a mix of Division I, II, and III teams. Both the men’s and women’s squad took home trophies from Saturday’s race.
We have all heard that line from Mean Girls: “Halloween is the one night a year when girls can dress like a total slut and no other girls can say anything about it.” While the first part might be true the second most likely is not. If a girl does dress like that, most people would have something to say about it, perhaps both positive and negative. So is it really a bad thing that girls dress this way?
Well freshmen, throughout the last week or so many of you have probably been smacked in the face with the reality that midterms are here; which means your first semester as a freshman is almost over.

Here at The Pioneer we’re always looking for new contributors. So here is a list of reasons why you should join your student newspaper! Drum roll please…
Change can be a frightening thing. Whether it is good or bad change, it is extremely hard to alter our normal behavior. It is especially quite challenging when it comes to making changes in our everyday eating and working out regimes. Many of us feel as though it’s impossible–– “it’s too hard, it doesn’t work, there’s not enough time, I JUST CAN’T DO IT!” The excuses are endless. Although it may sound cliche, anything is possible, but like stated in the previous issue, nothing works over night. Everything takes time. Slow change is change that is more realistic and surprisingly gratifying. Rushing to loose ten pounds in two weeks creates unrealistic goals and irritating failures. It is all about changing your lifestyle in incremental and realistic steps that become embedded in your everyday life on a daily basis.
