The Indiana (Pa.) Indians
led a noisy attack on the
Natatorium Saturday af
ternoon. When the battle was
over, the Lions were left with
a 61-52 loss.
Senior All-American Emilio
Abreu led the Indian attack,
Easily winning the-200-yard
individual medley in 1:59.55
and the 200-yard butterfly in
1:58.39.
The highlight for Penn State
came in the 100-yard
freestyle, in which freshman
Doug King, of State College,
set a new team record. His
time of 0:48.45 broke the
previous record of 0:48.50 set
in 1975 by Will Metzger.
“It was a great race,”
coach Lou McNeill said. “We
knew how strong King was
but, except for Steve Rode
setting a new one'of his own,
we didn’t think we would have
any new team records this
season.”
The meet was decided on
the second and third places,
since each team tallied six
first places. Penn State won

there were five diving judges
instead of the. usual three.
This was at the request of the
Indiana team.
“They felt that they were
cheated here two years ago
and brought two of their own
judges this year,” Goldberg
said. “We kept the two judges
originally set for the meet and
I had the fifth spot.”
There are three dual meets
left on the Lions’ schedule
before the Eastern Cham
pionships on March 3-5 in
Morgantown, W. Va. The
team will travel to West
Virginia on Feb. 19, host
Villanova on Feb. 23, and go
on the road for their final
meet at St. Bonaventure on
Feb. 26.
Presently there are 10 Lions
qualified for Easterns and
about five more are expected
to qualify in the three
remaining meets, according
to coach McNeill.
Goldberg is optimistic
about his divers chances in
Easterns. He said that
Maurone and Pitt’s Tom
Faytol will be the only seniors
in the field.

Lady tankers' first setback
Pitt drops swimwomen
By JOYCE TOMANA
Collegian Sports Writer
Lady Lion swimmers put their perfect 6-0
record on the line in Pittsburgh yesterday
afternoon and the Pantherettes snatched it
away by the score of 76-55.
“They were higher than I anticipated, and
we just weren’t as sharp as we were against
Princeton,” Penn State coach Ellen Perry
said.
Despite the loss, Penn State set seven new
team records. Only one of the new records
was a winning time, which is an indication of
the strength of the Pitt squad. Cindy Fry won
the 50-yard butterfly, and placed second in
the 200-yard backstroke. Lynn Ross-Scovazzo
was second in the breaststroke, and
Carol Mazzer was second in the 200-yard
butterfly. Janice Fischer finished third in the
200-yard individual medley. Although both
the 400-yard medley and 400-yard freestyle
relays didn’t score points, they were also new
Penn State records.
Lady Lion freshman diver Lisa Pellow
defeated Pitt’s Connie Heister on the three
meter board. Heister was fifth at Easterns
last year and a National qualifier.
On the one meter board, Becky finished

Hammer before she chose Pitt. She was an
All-American at W T. Woodson near Binny’s
Fort Hunt high school.
Sophomore Cindy Fry was the only double
winner for the Lady Lions, winning the 50-
yard backstroke and the 50-yard butterfly.
Yesterday’s meet was a long one which,
according to coach Ellen Perry is Pitt’s
specialty. Penn State’s strength is in the
sprint meets.
Kathy Stetler, Pitt’s top veteran and most
valuable player last season, was particularly
strong in yesterday’s meet. She won both the
50-yard and 100-yard freestyle events. She
also swam on the winning 400-yard medley
and 400-yard freestyle relay teams. '
“She’s just fantastic,” Perry said.
Yesterday’s loss brought Penn State to a 6-
1 slate, identical to Pitt’s record. The Pan
therettes’ only loss went to Princeton, whom
the Lady Lions defeated last weekend. Four
teams remain on Penn State’s schedule, all of
which are home meets. They host Bucknell,
Clarion and East Stroudsburg in a tri-meet,
and Maryland before the Eastern Cham
pionship March 1-3 at the University of
Delaware.
“Easterns will be a dog fight between us,
Pitt, Rutgers, and Princeton,” Perry
predicts.
