stongboy of Behrend wrestling,
was named “Athlete of the Year”
at the Athletic Awards banquet
which was held Tuesday evening
in the Reed Building.

of accomplishments throughout
the wrestling season which
earned him the highest athletic
award given at Behrend.

The Behrend tennis team
concluded its season by finishing
second in the Commonwealth
Campus tournament at Main
Campus. The tournament was set
up so that there would be two
singles flight eliminations and one
doubles flight. If a player par
ticipated in one he could not
participate in the other. Behrend
took down four men consisting of
Bob McPherson, Jay Baker, Joe
Shevchik and Jim Lyons.
McPherson and Baker competed
in the singles flights, while
Shevchik and Lyons competed in
the doubles. Bob McPherson
advanced to the semi-finals
where he lost to Altoona’s first
man; he was the only, person that
beat Bob in regular season play.
In the second flight Jay Baker
took it all. Jay, who advanced to
the finals in the first flight last
year, was given little trouble in
the second flight of this year’s
tournament.
In fact, this was the first time
Jay has ever won a tournament
after advancing to the finals in
several others, while playing for
both McDowell and Behrend. The
doubles team also advanced to
the finals but they were not as
fortunate as Baker. Altoona was
again the victor in this finals
match but only after Lyons and
Shevchik gave them a rough time
in a valiant second effort in the
second set. However, Altoona
regrouped to pull it out in the end.
Behrend came home with four
trophies belonging to Jay Baker
for second flight champion. Jim
Lyons and Shevchik for runner-up
in doubles and the team for
overall second place honors.
This tournament concluded a

took first place, which was just
the beginning for Paul. From
there he put Behrend on the
wrestling map by copping third
place in the Region XIX Tourney.
Paul then placed sth in the
NJCAA tournament which in
cluded the top 32 wrestlers in the
nation.
Jazenski also received the
White Letter Award, which is
given to the outstanding athlete in
each respective sport. The White
Letter in Soccer went to Jim
Channas for the second con
secutive year. Channas broke
records of most goals in a season
(13) and career goals (25) while
leading the Soccer team to a 7-4
long successful season for the
Behrend netters. The ended up
with a 9-2 won-lost record in dual
play, fourth place in the region 19
tournament and second place in
the Commonwealth Campus
tournament. Every regular
starter for the team showed
winning seasons with Bob
McPherson being the most im
pressive with a 10-1 won-lost
record. This was the most wins
any player in Behrend history has
received in one year. Jay Baker
and Joe Shevchik also had very
successful years concluding with
9-2 seasons. The other three
starters Jim Lyons, Jim Higgins
and A 1 Lopus had 7-4 won-loss
records.
This was a very successful year
for Behrend and they have
proved that they will give good
showings against four-year
colleges in the area next year.

Jeff Mansfield, a native of
Greensburg, Pa., captured the
White Letter in Golf. The talented
golfer led the team to 7-3 mark,
and a tie for the Commonwealth
Campus Championship. In this
Tourney, Jeff finished third.
Rounding out the White Letter
winners was Bob McPherson for
his outstanding play in tennis.
McPherson compiled a 10-1 in
dividual record, the most wins
ever in one year. He also was a
semi-finalist in the Com
monwealth Campus Tourney and
a quarter finalist in the Region
XIX Tourney. Bob paced the
Cubs to a 9-2 slate and a 2nd place
Commonwealth Campus finish.
These awards highlighted the
evening’s festivities which also
saw letters awarded to deserving

Thus, the 1971-72 athletic year
comes to an end. Behrend teams
racked up impressive total of 54
wins, 32 losses, and 1 tie.
