Lady Cubs Shine At
Keystone Conference
The Behrend College women's
basketball team, after what
seemed like an unpromising
start, finished a successful
season. They came back from an
0-6 record at the beginning of the
season against some tough
competition to finish with an 8-10
record and a second place finish
in the Keystone Conference.
The team had only two
returning lettermen from the
previous year's team, Sophomore
center Cheryl Ramsdell and
Junior forward Sharon Vinston.
The team overcame inex
perience and won seven of their
last eleven games, including four
in a row. Only a loss to Grove City
in overtime prevented the Lady
Cubs from placing first in the
Keystone Conference.
According to coach Ellen
Johns, the team showed a lot of
"heart" in overcoming the early
season problems, and gradually
overcame their inexperience.
Five of the top seven starters
are returning next year. Ram

conference in rebounding (11.5
per game) and ninth in scoring
(11.3 ppg) will return, as will
Vinston, fourth in scoring (14.6
ppg) and eighth in rebounding
(9.5). Two other forwards, Patty
Hillkirk and Janet Satyshur, will
also be returning.
Three freshmen guards, Janet
Fogarty, Lois McKean, and
Becky Hiegel, provided the team
with fine leadership considering
their inexperience at the college
level.
Fogerty led the Keystone
Conference in assists with 83,
good enough to place her in the
top 10 for assists in the Eastern
Association of Intercollegiate
Athletics for Women.
McKean ended third in the
conference in field goal per
centage (48:6) and seventh in
scoring (12.6.ppg).
Coach Johns has begun
recruiting in the high schools,
though Behrend has not in the
past given financial aid for
women's basketball, and next
year's team should be exciting to
watch.

Behrend Collegian
Netters Need
Work
Last Wednesday, March 14, the
Behrend College varsity men's
tennis team played an exhibition
match against Lakeland Com
munity College in Geneva, Ohio.
Behrend lost the match 6-2,
winning only at third singles and
first doubles.
Coach Avallone feels the team
generally played badly and that
there were no excuses for the
poor play. It was, however, the
first competition for the team,
and many of the players played
nervously.
Despite the loss, Avallone
thinks it is good to have played
the match because it pointed out
areas where the players need to
work.
Due to the limited court time,
the players used pro set scoring,
10 games winning the singles
matches and eight for the
doubles. A no-ad scoring was also
used.
The rusults follow:
Behrend vs.
Lakeland
Mark Baginski (B) vs. Ed
Dubsky (L) 10-8 (LCC).
Steve Pappas (B) vs. Randy
Sant (L) 10-5 (LCC).
Gary Gasperich (B) vs. Jeff
