Found money makes cents at Behrend
by Sae Holmes
Collegbm Sports Editor
Besides bringing to Befirend her
great coaching ability, Head
Women's Basketball Coach Karin
Sobotta brings great ideas. One of
Sobotta's ideas is the Found
Money Fund.
Sobotta earned headlines with
her great basketball and tennis play
at the University of Idaho, but she
was also playing an active part in
ensuring the continued success of
the unique Found Money Fund.
The fund was a co-founded at the
University of Idaho in 1980 by
Ladies team

Collegian Staff Writer
The 1986 Womens' Volleyball
Team has amassed an 8-12 record
this season. The record may be
misleading as it dqes not show the
quality teams the Lady Cubs have
played.
Coach Jan Wilson stressed the
fact, "We have forfeitted our
record to play against some na
tionally ranked teams so far."
The Lady Cubs have played such
big named volleyball squads as Ox
idonal University, Calrin Universi
ty, who's ranked third nationally in
Division 3 play, and the Ohio Nor
thern University also ranked in the
top 20.
On September 23, the team went
to play the University of Buffalo
and Baldwin Wallace at Buffalo.
Wilson's squad dropped the first
match 15-15, and 15-11 to the Buf
falo squad, and then dropped two
more to Baldwin Wallace 15-0 and
15-7.
The Behrend club then travelled
to Lake Erie College where they
posted a victory. Behind the 11
spikes by Sue Holmes and
numerous serving aces of Beth
Beres, the Lady Cubs won by
scores of 15-18 and 15-10.
The Womens' Volleyball Team
came out of the Thiel tournament
with a 1-3 record. They opened up

Terry Armstrong, who is the
presidents executive assistant and
Carol Yenni, Law College Admis
sions Assistant. According to
Sobott4, "The fund was originally
started as just a fun thing on cam
pus and now it exceeds $6OOO and is
increasing by about $lOO per
month.".
A story appeared in "USA To
day" and gained the University of
Idaho national attention. As a
result of the publicity, Armstrong
was asked to appear on the NBC
game show, "Fantasy", to try to
win money for their fund. Arm
the tourney by placing a 15-11 and
15-7 win over Walsh College. The
next three games saw them lose to
Bethany College, Westminster Col
lege and Thiel College. Wilson
stated, "The Westminster loss was
tough. I felt we should have won."
After the tough overtime loss to
Westminster, they dropped the
final match to Thiel. After winning
the first game 15-12, they lost the

strong was asked to bring along a
student-athlete, and since Sobotta
was a major contributor to the
fund she was to appear on the show
with him.
"Fantasy", hosted by Peter
Marhall, was a game show design
ed so the contestants could win
money at the end of the show. The
contestants were put into glass
cubicals about the size of a phone
book and had the opportunity to
grab at $5O bills that were being
blown around inside. Each contes
tant was wearing an apron in which
to stuff the money that they had
next two by the score of 2-15.
The squad will travel to Juanta
College for a tournament next
week. wilson looks to finish up the
season improving on their record.
She looks to Sue Holmes for good
play and also feel Beth Beres, Zoe
Kun and Anne Hatton will carry
the team to victory in the upcoming
matches.
With good performances ex
pected from these players, the Lady
Cubs look to be very competitive
from here on out. So, for some
good volleyball action come to
check out the 1986 edition of the
Womens Volleyball Team.

caught. At the end of the time
alloted them, Armstrong and
Sobotta had managed to collect
$2lOO between them. This sum is
the largest donation to the fund so
far.
When Sobotta arrived at
Behrend in 1984 she wanted to start
a Found Money Fund here. With a
little delibration she decided to put
her plan into action.
Unexpected loss for Soccer team
On Saturday, September 27 the
Penn State Behrend Mens' Varsity
Soccer Team experienced an
unusual and unexpeced loss to
Walsh College. This places their
current record at 2-3-1.
The game got off to a slow start
fot the Cubs. "We played much
better the second half than we did
the first", says captain Todd
Lindenmuth. It is perhaps what
some might call a freak accident
that the other team won. When
speaking with freshman goalie
Mark Yingling, he said is was just a
mistake. "I came out of the goal to
assist team member Jay Varcoe. I
told him to pass it back to me, but
it was too far over for me to get, so
it slid right in". This occurrence
resulted in the only goal of the
game, leaving the final score at 1-0.
"We definitely outplayed them",
said Todd. The junior captain
predicts the team will begin to do
really well from now on. "We all
play well together and get along
fine." Coach Lauffer took the loss
very well considering the cirucm
stances. Captain Mike
Hockenberger said, "There's
nothing we can do about it now.
All we have to do is concentrate on
the next game, and make sure we
win." .
The Cubs received quite a tur
nout on Saturday considering it
was All-U Day at Penn State,
University Park. There were not as
many students available to go to
the soccer game that weekend. The
rainfall also did not discourage
fans as they continued to remain
and support the Soccer Team.

The fund is just what the name
implies, Found Money. It is small
change, and some one's and five
dollar bills. Sobotta wanted to start
the fund to generate funds for the
athletic department.
As of October 1, the fund has
$50.19. It is very easy to add to the
fund, whenever you find money,
bring it to Sobotta's office in Erie
