Lady Cubs
First Home Game
Foul Play!
By Cyndi Warwick
The Behrend Lady Cubs,
coached by Ms. Ellen Johns,
opened their first home game
December 7th against a tough
Grove City College team. The
final score showed a 66-49 loss.
Grove City, the W.K.C. title
holder for the last three years,
came out onto the court with a
bang, causing the Behrend
defenders to foul. By the end of
the game, two Behrend players
had fouled out, three had four
fouls and two had three fouls.
Behrend was in the game, trail
ing by only four points at the 6:30
mark, but couldn't get their of
fense together. What really top
ped it off was that Grove City had
28 points from the foul line with
Behrend having only seven.
The scoring leaders for
Behrend were Diane Metzger
with 20 and Mindy Stasenko with
14. The "triplets" were the
leading rebounders with Mindy
Stasenko having 10, and Missy
Stasenko and Kathy Ott each hav
ing seven.
Behrend, now 1-2 is a young
team with only two juniors and
four sophomores. The starting
lineup consists of two freshmen, a
junior, and two sophomores. Min
dy Stasenko, a 5'9" freshman
from Pittsburgh; Diane Metzger,
a 5'5" freshman from Erie; Molly
Heidecker, a s'B" junior from
Waterford; Anne Wallace, a 5'5"
sophomore from Pittsburgh; and
Barb Schroeck, a s'B" transfer
from Thiel College. Filling in are
Missy Stasenko, (yes, Mindy's
twin), from Pittsburgh; Natalie
Kuhn from Waterford; Kathy Ott
from Erie; Cyndi Warwick from
New Jersey; and M.C. Miller.
Karen Bittner, and Meg Ross, all
from Pittsburgh.
Behrend is away at Ohio, the
18th and 19th of December for a
Christmas tournament against
Baldwin-Wallace, Muskingum
and Findlay. Their next home
game is against P.S.U.-Shenango
on January 7th. Hope to see all of
you there to help cheer on the
Lady Cubs.

Cubs Off To
Poor Start
CUBS OFF TO POOR START
Behrend College opened its
1981-82 schedule over term break
with five hard-fought losses to
fierce opponents. The Cubs
record now stands at 1-5, with the
latest loss coining at the hands of
the Fighting Scots of Edinboro on
Thursday.
VAUGHN PACES
CUBS ON LOSS
Behrend dropped its "home"
opener at the Gannon Audi last
week, 58-60. Center Don Vaughn
paced his teammates with 21
points to lead all scorers. The
Cubs also got 16 tallies from for
ward Tom Blythe. Still, the
cageman couldn't hold onto any
advantage as the Scots came on
the better end.
Cubs' Coach Jim Sins reflected
on the loss last Thursday. "We
played well enough to win," the
mentor pointed out, "but we
made big mistakes at critical
times."
Despite using only six players
for the game, Sims felt his team
benefitted. "When we used only
six players for the game, we
slowed the pace of the game a lot.
It was a slow game from the
start, and we didn't need to work
players in and out of the lineup."
Land Battle of the Scots proved
to be Behrend's nemesis, having
scored 16 markers. The Cubs'
also had difficulty in containing
Edwin Wright, who helped his
cause with 11 points of his own.
Down by three at the half, the
Cubs fought back and were forc
ed to play catch-up ball
throughout the game. The lead
changed hands several times in
the see-saw contest. Any lead
Behrend had was salvaged, since
the Scots reciprocated with pro
ductive scoring from the bench.
At one point, Behrend fell
behind as many as seven points in
the second half. But Edinboro's
lead was whittled away to one as
Ty Vaughn and Blythe scored in
pressure situations. Blythe then
fouled the Scots' Brian Simmons
connected on both free throw at
tempts to put Soro back-up by
three with 13 seconds remaining.
Ty Vaughn scored one 15-foot
jumper to cut the disadvantage to
one second time. Brother Don
(Vaughn) then fouled out, giving
Wright a chance at the charity
stripe.
Missing one, the Cubs got the
ball and Ty Vaughn scored . again
as time ran out.
Willie Lee of Boro added two
free throws at game's end.
Besides the 21 points from Don
Vaughn, brother Ty Vaughn add
ed 13, Bob Maxan 6, and Shawn
Thamert 2 for Behrend scoring.
Don Vaughn also gathered nine
rebounds and Blythe collected
four for the game.
CUBS DOWNED
BY CLARION
Earlier last week, the Cubs
travelled to Tippin Stadium at
Clarion St. College to face a tough
Golden Eagle club. Unbeaten in
four contests, the Eagles con
tinued their win skein with a con
vincing 92-69 thrashing of the
Cubs. Despite a 23-point perfor
mance from Don Vaughn, Cubs
could't contain the powerful
Clarion club.
SALEM 85, BEHREND 68
That same week, Behrend
BEHREND COLLEGIAN
travelled to Salem College in
Ohio and dropped a 85-68 deci
sion. The brothers Vaughn were
in the spotlight in the game, while
each gathering 17 points to lead
the Cubs' scoring attack. Don
also contributed the effort with
an 18-rebound performance.
CUBS WIN AT GENEVA
Behrend finally got the win col
umn with victory on the rust of
December at Geneva College.
The Golden Tornadoes, winless in
two previous games, fell victim
to the Cubs, 77-59. Don Vaughn
was leading scorer once again
with 24 tallies and also had his
best rebounding efort with 19.
BEHREND FOURTH IN
TJRBANA TOURNEY
The Cubs opened their season
in the Urbana, Ohio tournament
for the first losses this year. In
the opening round, the Cubs were
victim to Rio Grande College,
61-79. Despite 25 points from Don
Vaughn, the Cubs couldn't hold
back Rio, who had played seven
games at the time of the tourney.
In the consolation game,
Behrend dropped to the hosts of
the tournament 48-49. Winless in
two efforts, the Cubs finished
fourth in the tournament. Ty
Vaughn led Behrend scores with
12, while brother Don followed 14
rebounds.
To date, Don Vaughn appears
to be dominating every statistic
category. Shooting from the field
at a 53 per cent clip, Don is
averaging more than9o pints a
game. While he was the third
best rebounder in the NAIA a
year ago, he is performing even
better in 1981: an average of 15
rebounds after six games.
Fellow co-captain Tom Blythe
has provided a second scoring
threat for the Cubs. Tom has
averaged 15 markers a game and
also has dished out 16 assists.
Leading the team in that
category is Sophomore guard
Shawn Thamert with 32, Ty and
Don Vaughn are next with 12
each.
Despite the _poor start, Sims
feels playing away has hurt the
Cubs' success.
"We've played al/ our games
on the road, except one which
was at a neutral site (Gannon
Audi). All of our opponents ex
cept for Edinboro are playoff
contenders.
"I'm concerned about the poor
start, but I think the tough part of
our schedule was in December. It
will balance out in January and
February and we will have more
games in Erie Hall."
Sims isn't ruling playoff
possibilities as yet.
"We're playing with a young,
inexperienced team on the road.
As we get better, our record will
improve, too. Even with our
record, we're fourth in our divi
sion (District 18 in NAIA) and 1-1
in the Big Five. Eight teams will
go to the playoffs this year, and
we still have a chance to go."
EDITOR'S NOTE;
The Cubs won Monday night at
Alliance College, 75-59 behind
"Skip" Robinson's 22 points and
Don Vaughn's 19. Tom Blythe ad
ded 12 and Ty Vaughn 10 to help
the cause.
About I.M.
Every year students complain,
"There is nothing to do at
Behrend College." They don't
have to look too hard to find that
Behrend's I.M. department of
fers a wide variety of activities
that cover - most students'
interests.
Intramurals play an important
role in the life of a college stu
dent. To many, it takes the place
of a varsity sport. To others, it
gives them a break from the has
sle of school and a chance to do
something they really enjoy. In
tramurals are for commuters as
well as dormers.
Duane. Crider, I.M. Director,
has been working to improve the
I.M. program at Behrend. A
survey was prepared and given to
get student input to improve the
general I.M. program. Six hun
dred surveys were distributed
among dormers and commuters
and only 40 were returned.
Needless to say 40 opinions from
a student body of almost 1,800 can
hardly be used to show the
general interests of the school.
Duane said, "Even though the
returns were small, those who
answered the survey showed an
interest in improving the pro
gram for the future." The sugges
tions made have been recorded
and will be taken into considera
tion in the future.
To get further student input in
the I.M. program, an Intrarbural
Council is being formed. It will be
comprised of 10 student
volunteers, four commuters and
six dormers. Each dorm is to
have two representatives, one

Search For Athletic Director
Approaches Conclusion
By Ron Leonardi
It appears the process of filling
the position of Athletic Director is
entering its final stage, according
to Behrend acting Athletic Direc
tor Herb Lauffer.
Mr. Lauffer, who's held the
post since July Ist and is one of
the remaining candidates vying
for the position, expects a deci
sion to be reached sometime over
Christmas break.
The position of athletic director
was advertised several months
ago. The person applying for the
position must be committed not
only to fund raising but must also
be willing to do one of the follow
ing things: teach physical educa
tion, teach in the health education
program or assume the position
of baseball coach.
It is conceivable that the per
son who assumes the position of
athletic director may also
assume the position of baseball
coach.
Looking back on the past six
months in which he has held the
post. Mr. Lauffer reflected some
of his thoughts and explained his
philosophy concerning the
Behrend athletic program. "The
basic philosophy that I'm
operating under is that we want
to have a quality program for

male and one female, who are
recommended by the R.A.'s.
Commuters will be represented
by two males and two females
who have an interest in improv
ing the program for commuter
participation.
The council will discuss the
types of activities to be offered,
the rules governing the sports,
and the I.M. program itself. This
council will give students a direct
input into the intramural sports
program. The council is slated to
begin activity around January 15.

quality by saying that we are go
ing to continue to play - the best
competition - that we possibly can
in all our sports. We are going to
continue to budget our sports pro
gram so that it can remain com
petitive with those institutions we
must play."
On the other hand, the job has
not been without its share of pro
blems. "Certainly there have
been problems," said Lauffer.
"It's a position where there are
decisions that have to be made on
a regular basis. Many decisions
have to be studied, because they
affect a lot of people and it takes
time to make them feel comfor
table that you are making the
right decision."
