November 11, 1971 (Continued from Page 1) And so, the colorful history of junior college soccer at Behrend comes to a great finish. This year's team was one of the most exciting athletic squads ever to 'represent Behrend. After the few rosses they sustained, the players worked harder and were tough enough to bounce back. So, to Coach Lauffer and his entire squad, we would like to say congratulations and thank you for their great efforts this season. Cagers Hard At Work; Tough In Scrimmages by Tom Harvey Sports Reporter The Behrend hoopsters par ticipated in two scrimmages against Mercyhurst and Alliance last week and on the whole, Coach Roger Sweeting was pleased with the performance of his charges. Although an official score was 'not kept, statistics were recorded of the Cub's performance, giving Sweeting a yardstick with which to judge his players. "I was extremely pleased with what we learned in the Mer cyhurst scrimmage," com mented Coach Sweeting, "we were exposed to good defensive pressure and I think the scrim mage did us a lot of good. On Saturday we were able to apply some defensive pressure and we were also able to run our of fensive patterns against Alliance as I had hoped we would do." Chris Gross, Calvin Fleming, and Glenn McKinney showed outstanding talent at Thursday's Mercyhurst scrimmage. Sweeting stated: "Statistically Chris Gross had by far the out standing effort. Fleming also had a good workout. Mercyhurst's Coach Fox was impressed with the work of Glenn McKinney." Dennis Deiner turned in a tremendous performance against Intramural Basketball Begins Play Intramural basketball started this week and a record 24 teams are participating. The league is split. into- _two divisions, consisting of the dorm division and the commuter conference. The commuter teams play on Tuesday night while the dorm squads vie on Thursdays. Tuesday opened the commuter competition and thus far the teams to beat in that conference appear to be Daffy's Dunkers and the Bud Brigade. Daffy's Dunkers won by a score of 76-18, and the Brigade demolished their opponent 90-13. Levine Auto Supply 3341 Buffalo Rd. Wesleyville, Pa.

Sweeting called Deiner's play "Outstanding and there's no doubt in my mind that he - can continue to do a fine job all season." Three players are presently out of the picture. Tom Koczesky is out with a broken hand, Ike Burnett is out because of ineligibility and Roger Nolan will probably miss the entire season due to a knee injury sustained Last Wednesday afternoon the Behrend Arena was the scene of pandemonium and disap pointment, as the Trojan Rubber Co. defeated the Bud Brigade 36- 18. The game was titled "Battle of the Mouths" as opposing quar terbacks Al Lopus from the TRC and Dave Ruef from the Bud Brigade had been at each other's throats since the season began five weeks ago. The "Mouths" finally met in the championship game but all Ruef received for his verbal efforts was big fat foot. Unfortunately, Al has mononucleosis and will not give the TRC writeup until-a later date. Ruef pulled a Craig Morton choke in the final game as five of his aerials were picked off and four of them were run back for touchdowns. The Bud Brigade, perhaps the classiest team at Behrend with their famous Bud T.:shirts, had a long hard road to climb to reach the championship game. On Monday they defeated the Mystics to gain a tie in their division. On Tuesday the Bud Brigade defeated the Commuting Commands's 30-12 to win the Commuter Division.

Coach Sweeting summed up the progress to date by commenting: "We are making the type of progress that we expect to make and things are shaping up pretty well. We still have a lot of work to do to play as a team and there's no doubt in my mind that when it comes time for the - first ball game, we'll be respectable." the TRC put an end to the Bud Brigade's dream. The offensive unit was led by Tom "True Blue" Harvey who led the team with 30 receptions and 8 touchdowns. Mike "Hands" Wolf was second in scoring with 5 td's and 18 receptions. "Dapper'? Dan Porath was next with 2 td's and 24 grabs. Glynn "Hero" Chase scored 3 td's and had 12 receptions. Chasbo also led the team in rushing with over 200 yds. Dandy Don "I'm open over the middle" Raydo had 6 receptions and 1 td. And finally, player Coach Ray "Bumble Bee" Majewski had 6 receptions and scored 2 touchdowns. Quarterback Dave "JC" Ruef finished the year completing 99 of 147 passes for a 67 per cent completion mark and 22 touch downs passes. Eight of his passes were intercepted. The "Doomsday" defense of the Bud Brigade was led by the fearsome front line of Mike Wolf and Bob "Turkey" Trost. The corps of bruising linebackers include Tony "Contact" Alo, Frank "Cruel" Carlson, and Tom "Dirty" Danowski. The stingy secondary was led by Tim "Ever ready" Everett and- Tom "The Rat" Wright. MACE ELECTRONICS 2631 WEST-BTH ERIE, PA. by Tom Harvey Sports Reporter Coach Herb Lauffer has named two athletes to receive this week's "Athlete of the Week" honor: Jim Channas, who scored two goals and added an assist, and Ed Moore, who turned away nine Ogontz shots in the big commonwealth campus cham pionship win. Channas becomes the first repeater in this series with Moore being so honored for the first time. Lauffer said of Channas: "If I had to select a most valuable player for the Ogontz game, it would be Jim Channas. He played one of his better games all year and he scored our first and fourth goals." Channas added two Behrend records to his ever in creasing laurels. He scored a total of 25 goals in his Behrend A Women's View; Hockey Madness by Pam Babcock Sports Reporter November is a sort of never never land for sports. The foot ball season is almost over, the basketball season has almost begun, and the cold, cold snow has everyone wishing it were baseball season again. There is only one sport that combines the animal confusion of football and the gracefulness of basketball at the price of a baseball ticket - ice hockey. Good ol' ice hockey - the game where men glide gallantly across the ice until they can get close enough to their opponent to clobber him ! Hockey players are incredible. They skate with the skill of any Ice Capades heroine - I mean hero - and fight like brutes. A hockey game is really exciting to watch, and easy to understand. Remember when I told you soccer was like hockey on grass? Well, hockey is like soccer on ice, but this time we have a hockey puck instead of a ball and a great, Arthur F.

Ed Moore played tremendous soccer all season according to Coach Lauffer. "He's been our regular starting goalie for the past two seasons," commented Lauffer. "I felt that all year long he just did a super job. We had 24 goals scored against us in 11 games. Last year in 10 games we had 45 goals scored on us, and I think our defense is much better and much smarter this season. There are many factors for this and one of them is Ed Moore who day in and day out turned in his usual fine effort." The Cubs finished the season with a 7-4 record and the Com monwealth Campus cham pionship under their belt. Coach Lauffer and the entire, team deserve much credit for the soccer honors brought to Behrend. big stick to kill each other with. Anyway, it's really something to see guys who are brutes from the knees up and ballerinas the rest of the way gliding all over the ice and maiming each other while playing the game of "Puck, puck, who's got the puck ? - The object of the game is the same as soccer - get the puck into the opponent's goal. But - since the feet have to be used for skating instead of kicking as in soccer, the great, big stick is used to hit the puck. (Nice way to justify the great, big stick that often turns into a weapon in pro games - don't you think? ). Next time you make it to a hockey game and see the screens separating the players from the payers. you'll know why. Just because it may look like the hockey players are animals caged in a zoo, you'll know that your first impressions were wrong and the real reason is to protect the fans from the fights.
