On May 5. Behrend chalked up
its fifth consecutive triumph with
a 10-2 blitzing of Edinboro State in
the first game of a doubleheader.
Leading only 3-2, the Cubs put the
game on ice with seven markers
in the sixth inning_ Mark Falvo (3-
3) struck out nine, surrendered
only three hits. and got batting
support • from Tom Lawless who
went two-for-two with a pair of
RBl's.
In the nightcap, however, the
team had its winning streak
snapped, 11-10. The Scots twice
erased 4-run Cub leads and
rallied for three scores in the
seventh frame to lectipse the
Cubs_ Team statistician, Debby
Frankel commented that "we
shouldn't have lost—that's all
I here is to it."
When Behrend journeyed to
Westminister on Saturday, they
dropped two close contests, 3-1
and 4-2. The team played well.
but they were victimized by of
ficials that favored the
hometearn. Miss Frankel had this
to say about the Cubs' twin loss.
"the umpires were bad, real
bad...l can't say much more
about it."

Playing fair helps
By Betsy Choder
Sports Editor
Being the final issue for this
year, I decided this was an ap
propriate time to tell you that I
hope this year has been - shall we
say - a memorable one for you. ,
Having been stopped by many
people lately and through per
sonal experiences, I've been told
this would also be an appropriate
time to add, a short word about
intramural games. Throughout
intramural play it seemed some
types of conflict usually arose
between teams which were either
cleared up during the game or
were left to be worked out bet
ween the players. Remember
Behrend Collegian
whenever you're playing a game
against people you know, such as
in intramurals, play it like you
would any other game: for fun.
Not for personal purposes such as
revenge or hatred for another
person on the opposing team.
Intrmurals are what you
makethem. Make them fun for
everyone - especially yourself.
Cliches and all, I'm' not known
for making my points clear to
everybody, in fact I'm not sure
you GOT the point. But here is
something I want to make sure
that you understand:
I hope you have a fantastic
summer. Hope to see you next
Fall ! (Corny mush )

petition last Saturday, Behrend
crushed Villa Maria College 13-2.

attack for the Club, collecting

RBl's. The victory was the Club's

Golfers
Lose
By Brad Phillips
Collegian Staff Writer
Last Thursday, Behrend's
golfers rounded off the regular
season with a 41-stroke loss to
Gannon College at Lake Shore
Country Club. The team had
difficulty keeping their shots in
bounds on the rainy, windblown
course, setting a new Behrend
school record for penalty strokes
and, according to golf coach Ed
Onorato, "You can't win college
golf matches doing that." Gary
Lorei fired a 79 and was the low
man for the Cubs. Larry Cun
ningham recorded an 86, John
Carneval and Mark Webster both
turned in 88s, and Tom Hamilton
finished with an 89 for a team
total of 430 strokes.

Russ Gavran was
elected to be Athlete of the Week last week, vet due to certain
circumstances his photo did not appear in last issue. This week
Russ has added a bit more to his record in baseball. The most
recent being his record of 3 for 6 at Edinboro on Wednesday and his
having made a double at the Westminster game on Saturday.

once again - wdnien's - club'softball
was defeated on Monday with a
final score of 24-5.
Today the Club plays Allegheny
College in what will prove to be an
exciting doubleheader. Come
down to the field at 3:00 and help
cheer the girls to victory. The
Club's last game of the season
will be here on Saturday at 10:00 .
Coach Onorato speculated if
there is a fault with his team, it is
because his golfers "are shooting
4 to 5 strokes higher than they
know they should be." At the
onset of the season, he hoped his
crew would be able to average 400
strokes per match (80 for each of
the five players), but the dream
never came true because the
team "didn't have enough time to
develop their potential or the
kind of golf they would like to
play," which Mr. Onorato said
was "a little frustrating and
disappointing."
This week the team has been
trying to get it together in
preparation for the District 18
tournament today at the Oak Tree
Country Club in West Middlesex.
