Soccer Team Looking Good by J ohn Blimmel Collegian Staff Writer Optimism is high for the Behrend College Soccer Team as they start a new season, aiming at improving last year’s suc cessful 8-4-1 record. The team has lost several key players from last year’s team, but Coach Herb Lauffer is con fident that with five returning starters, some of last year’s back-ups, and several transfer students, he has the makings of a winning team. Some of tiie players Coach Lauffer is counting on to add stability to this year’s club in clude co-captains Bill Stara and Gary Zemanski, backs Bill Breedlove, Chris Goddard, Pete Oetinger, Gary Wolfe, and Tony Orlando, linesmen Ken Renko, and Paul Heasley and goalkeeper Bill Dodd. Behrend will again be com peting in the Western Penn sylvania Intercollegiate Soccer Conference, playing against such strong opponents as Slippery Rock, Grove City, Houghton College, and Indiana (PA.). However Coach Lauffer feels his team can compete favorably with any of the teams in the con ference. He says he has quality Busy Time For Fans by John Blimmel Collegian Staff Writer This is one of the busiest times of the year for sports fans, with something to satisfy nearly every one of them. The baseball season, after a summer of exciting pennant races, is coming to a close, and the divisional playoffs and World Series are just a few weeks off. As baseball finishes its season, football is just beginning both college, pro, and several local teams hope to be in con tention for top honors this year. In addition, both basketball and hockey are just around the comer, and in the next few months there are several big boxing matches scheduled. For the first time in three years, it looks like the Cincinnati Reds won’t be in the World Series. They faltered early this year and the Los Angeles Dodgers took advantage of the situation to build a seemingly unsurmountable lead. In the other three divisions the races were much closer. Such unlikely pennant contenders as the Chicago Cubs and Chicago White Sox thrilled their fans by spen ding much of the summer at the top of their divisions. But the stronger teams ultimately prevailed and the Philadelphia Phillies and Kansas City Royals will be in the playoffs for the second straight year. The only pennant race left is in the American League East where the New York Yankees, Boston Red Sox,. and Baltimore Orioles continue to fight it out. One of the three will come out the winner, and they and the three other divisional winners will continue onto the playoffs. The playoffs begin on October 4, and the World Series exactly one week later. All the games will be televised. The pro football season began on September 18. Of the three area teams, only the Pittsburgh Steelers have any chance of dethroning the Oakland Raiders as Super Bowl champions. But Women Defeat Lakeland The Behrend Women’s Tennis team defeated Lakeland Com munity College September 16 by a score of 5-2. We lost at first and second singles, with Marcia Meehan loosing 0-6, 1-6, and Janice Rieger, 4-6, 4-6. Winners of single matches include Leslie Stinson, 6-3, 6-7, 6- 3; Bonnie Zietz, 6-2, 6-3; Nancy McGuigan, 6-3, 6-3. Doubles matches were taken by Darci Whitehead and Ann Razanauskas, and Nancy Anderson and Bobbin Ruhl. A complete rundown of the team and their coach will be included in the next article. Until then, good luck, girls! Behrend Collegian players, and the team has proven m the past that it can win. Behrend opened its season on September 10th and 11th by traveling down to Frostburg, Md., to take part in the Frostburg Soccer Tournament. Despite injuries to several top players which forced them to the side line, the Cubs tied for second in the four team tourney losing their opener to Frostburg State, 3-1, but then coining back to defeat West Liberty College 3-2. Paul Heasley, a transfer student from University Park Campus, scored three goals in the two games, with Mike Oliu accounting for one and Ken Renko being credited with an assist. The Cubs defeated Robert Wesleyan College on Saturday September 17 by a score of 3-1. Goals were scored by Mike Oliu, Tony Orlando, and Paul Heasley. The victory brought the Cubs’ record to 2-1. They open their home schedule on September 24th with a game against Mercyhurst. Both Coach Lauffer and his team are hoping for a large student turnout at the home games this year. The players enjoy playing before a large crowd cheering them on, and they promise that the fans will see an exciting brand of soccer. the Buffalo Bills do have O.J. Simpson, the best runningback in pro football, and he has a good chance of breaking his own single season rushing record of 2,003 yeards. In college football this year, the experts say the top teams should be Oklahoma, Michigan, Notre Dame, and USC. Penn State is now being ranked fifth in most polls, and there’s a good bet that when the Christmas holidays come along, the Nittany Lions will be playing in a bowl game. There is plenty of other sports action in the near future. The basketball and hockey seasons begin in about a month, and two big boxing matches are scheduled. Eamie Shavers vs Muhammed Ali in late Sep tember and then Norton vs Jimmy Young in November.
