"Do You Have A Favorite USFL . Football Team And Why?
1. "Tom Harrop (2nd Semester,
Science)
Boston, oops, I mean New
Orleans Breakers. Of course the
reason I like them is because they
were my home team. If it wasn't
for the New England Harness
Raceway, they could've moved to
Sullivan Stadium in Foxboro,
Mass. Well there aren't any other
USFL teams in the Boston area so
I guess I'll just keep my loyalty to
the old Boston Breakers."
Lady Cubs
By Jill Franz
The 1983-84 Penn State-
Behrend women's basketball team
ended its season qualifying for
post season play with a 12-12
record. The heartbreaking game
was the loss to Carlow College in
the tie-breaker for fourth place in
the playoffs. Four games the Lady
Cubs played were decided at the
final buzzer by a total of five
points, which could have easily
boosted their record to 16-8.
"The team experienced great
highs," said Coach Ellen Johns,
"like beating Allegheny College,
one of only two losses Allegheny
had this season. The squad ex
hibited good ball movement and
team play for most of the season
but size was a factor in reboun
ding effectively against many
taller and stronger opponents."

"I like - the L.A. Express,
because they sought out the best
college quarterback, Steve Young
from B.Y.U. Plus they are paying
him 40 million dollars to play for
four years, a real bargain, don't
you think so?"

providing scholarships for
athletes. Those two colleges,
Carlow and St. Vincent, made
their presence known immediately
along with previous powers, Point
Park and Westminster. The Lady
Cubs, however, claimed the honor
of being the only team to defeat
both first place Point Park and se
cond place Westminster.
Three team members displayed
much talent throughout the
season and earned All-District
honors. Diane Metzgar and Min
dy Stasenko were selected to the
first team and Missy Stasenko was
named to the second team.
In the Women's Keystone Con
ference, Diane Metzgar made the

with Mindy Stasenko earning -a se

"I don't have a favorite team, I

performance on six or seven
players. Offensively, Mindy

Diane Metzgar (12.5 points per

per game), Missy Stasenko (9.7
points per game), Donna Morgan
(6.7 points per game), and Pam
Anderson (4 points per game)

(6.7 per game).
Other individual marks set this
year include junior Diane Met
zgar's assist record (114) which
surpasses the old record set by
Molly Heidecker in four years of
play.
"All in all," said Coach Johns,
"the season had many successes.
Anyone who saw the Lady Cubs
play knows they stretched
themselves to do their best, and
even in defeat they represented
Penn State-Behrend well."
