Mary Good, the only senior on the
Behrend women's volleyball team,
came to play for Behrend from
Wattsburg, near Erie On this team of
eleven, she is the left outside hitter and
one of the primary passers. Good, with
the major of mechanical engineering,
has played for Behrend during all four
years of her college experience. The
team's record thus far is 6 -1 in the
conference, and Good hopes to help
the team succeed at winning the con

the games are usually during the
week. Monday and Friday or Tuesday
and Thursday are the schedule for the
games; however, on the weekends,
some games are also played.
Good believes that it is a little bit
difficult to juggle volleyball and
school. However, she stated, "during
volleyball I have to be good with time
management. I usually work better
during the season." She is also in-

Impressive conference
play keeps volleyball
in contention
team
by Abigail Long
assistant sports cditoi
The past two weeks have been busy
for the women's volleyball team,
highlighted by a trip to the West
Coast. While the Lions dropped all
three matches in California, the trip
gave the team valuable playing
experience with talented teams. After
returning home, the Lions won three
straight in conference play.
Beginning on October 7, 2000, the
Lions battled Pomona-Pitzer in the
morning, and La Verne later that
evening. Two days later, the Behrend
women played La Verne.
Head coach Cindy Jacobelli
pointed out, "We have a young team,
and they had a great time bonding
over this five day weekend."
In their first match Hehrend came
close to Pomona-Pitzer, hut was not
able to finish with the win. They were
close behind with scores of 15-13, 8-
15, 13-15, and 12-15 La Verne,
which is currently ranked in the top
ten in the nation, proved their ranking
with a 3-I win over the Lions. The
Lions fought hard, hut fell by scores
of 8- IS, 15-12, 3-15, and 5-15. Their
final match versus Claremont-Mudd
resulted in another loss by Behrend.
The scores in this match were 6-15,
3-15, and 11-15. During these three
games, Mary Good led in hoth kills
and digs with 33 and 62 respectively.
Brianne Engelbert was second in kills
with 20, and Jessica Niedermeyer
showed a strong 39 digs. Karen
Walters led the team with 79 assists.
Coach Jacobelli explained. "La Verne
is in the top ten in the country, and it
was good to see such strong
competition. The team played some
really good ball and they had a great
team experience."
Upon returning to their home court,
the Lions made a strong showing
against the Lake Erie Storm to start
the second half of conference play.
The intense workout in California
proved worthwhile as the Lions
dominated the Storm by a score of 3-
0.
Engelbert brought Behrend into the
lead early in game one. Throughout
game one, Walters showed great
setting abilities in order to assist her
teammates. The team as a whole
worked well together in order to end
the first game early by a score of 15-
4.
As usual Gtiod started out serving
first in the second game, and brought
Behrend into the lead. The Lions
maintained the lead throughout the
whole second game. Strong blocking
was shown in both the first and
second games on crucial points
Slack named
Behrend's
aquatic director
The Penn State Behrend
Athletics Department has
announced the hiring of Jennifer
Slack as the aquatic director. Slack
will also serve as an assistant men's
and women's swimming coach,

physical education department.

at the University of Pittsburgh. She
was a NCAA qualifier in the 500
and 1650 freestyle. Slack's
accolades include being named the
team's most improved swimmer as

"The addition of swimming and
Again, the Lions showed strong
teamwork, and several freshmen saw
valuable playing time. Nicole
Spindler had several strong kills
during game two. Also, Walters was
given a break. and Kim Wagner
entered the game as setter. Danielle
Bemis showed strong sere ing abilities
during the second game and brought
the Lions to a demanding 13-2 lead.
Spindler ended game two with the
final two points for a win of 15-2.
In game three the Storm jumped into
action against the Lions. Midway
through the game Lake Erie led by a
score of 9-8. However, Sarah Peterson
had a kill on an important volley in
order to get Behrend the serve.
Walters then served an ace in order to
tie the Storm at 9-9. Throughout the
middle of the game Lake Erie and
Behrend stayed close. Engelbert had
two kills late in the third game in order
to keep the serve. Good finished off
the night serving. The Lady Lions
finished the third game by a score of
15-I I.
Good, the lone senior on the team,
has made many important milestones
this season while showing strong
leadership to this young team. She
recently established a career record of
1,256 digs which put her as the new
leader. The previous record-holder
was her sister. Amy Good, who is now
an assistant coach. Her sister
commented, "she has grown into a
very talented and smart player. I
congratulate her for all of her
accomplishments, and if someone had
to break my record I any glad it was
my sister that did it!" Mary Good is
also in the top five position for digs in
a season, and in a single match. She
is in the top five for kills which
recently exceeded 800.
The I ions went on to defeat two
more conference teams in order to
improve their conference record to 8-
1. On October 14, 2000, Pitt-
Greensburg gave the Lions a difficult
match on the road, but the Lions came
out on top by 3 games to 1. The
individual game scores were 15-2, 13-
15, 15-5, and 15-5. They returned to
Erie to their home court to take on
Laßoche on October 18, 2000.
Behrend slid past Laßoche easily in 3
games. In game one the Lions racked
up a quick first win by a score of 15-
2. The domination continued as they
blanked Laßoche in games two and
three with identical scores of 15-0.
The Lady Lions are currently

will be working hard in preparation
for the AMCC Tournament that will
be played on November 3-4.
