As I look back on the last 20 years, I am very proud to have been part of a team that was able to accomplish so many great things for WEG and in our industry, said Eaves. Looking forward, I have confidence that the organization is pointed in the right direction and know the current leadership team will continue to grow and improve on the model we have developed. I want to thank all of my WEG colleagues for their hard work and collaboration over the years. Eaves became president of the company in 2006 and added the role of CEO in 2010. Current WEG chairman Jim Lawson will assume the positions on an interim basis.

Gignac put Marseille ahead in the 32nd minute following a bad mistake from defender Eloge Yamissi, whose weak back pass fell invitingly to Gignac, who rounded goalkeeper Nicolas Penneteau for his 16th goal of the season in all competitions. After defender Arthur Masuaka equalized in the 38th, Florian Thauvin got the winning goal when he was sent clean through by Mathieu Valbuena and beat Penneteau at his near post. "Everyone was committed tonight, our team spirit was irreproachable,&quuot; Gignac said.dddddddddddd"Were six points behind (third-place) Lille now. I hope we carry on like this because we have two home games coming up." Tensions were running high at Marseille in recent weeks and the players were severely criticized after losing three straight games and conceding 11 goals in those defeats. The fans had been getting on the teams back, even going as far as to issue vitriolic statements, but they got behind the players at Stade Velodrome. "The fans were great tonight. We had a constructive discussion last night," Gignac said. "They need to continue in this way, and so do we in terms of our commitment." ' ' '
