SHIPPENSBURG ROUTS LIONS
by Mark Israel
Shippensburg -- The Capitol
Campus Lions travelled here for
their final game of the 1973
season. They may as well have
stayed home.
It was one of those games in
which absolutely nothing went
right. The final score read
Shippensburg 93, Capitol 62.
It was obvious almost from
the start that the Lions just
didn't have it. Jimmy Merlano's
basket at the 2:06 mark gave the
Lions a 4-2 lead. From there,
they looked like they were
auditioning for the lead role in
Jimmy Breslin's "The Gang That
Couldn't Shoot Straight."
That was the last lead Capitol
saw. Although they held it close
through the first 9:36 with a
1-3-1 zone, Coach Al Williams
switched into a man-to-man
defense at that time. The
Raiders ripped off ten straight
points in 7:40 to open a 30-18
lead.
From then on, the game was
a complete route. Shippensburg
carried a 46-27 lead into the
locker at halftime, and never
once had to look back.
Actually, the Lions were

lucky it was their last game. Due
to the artificial tartan court at
Shippensburg, Capitol sustained
it's first serious injuries of the
season. (Previously, Armond
Magnelli's twisted ankle was the
only instance which saw a Lion
miss a game due to an injury).
In the first half, Rick
Schropp strained the ligaments
in his left knee; Tommy Ogden
also strained ligaments in his
right ankle midway through the
second half. The artificial
surface just doesn't allow a
player's foot to slide when it
comes down hard. When you're
not used to it, it can be a killer.
There was one bright spot in
this disaster of a finale. That was
the fine play of Rich Kopko,
who figures to play a key role on
next year's team. Kopko scored
nine, all in the second half,
played a solid defense, and gave
some additional hope for next
year.
So ends another chapter in
Capitol Campus basketball. The
team finished with a 5-7 record,
and overall, performed well.
Next year, with a player or two
to round out the frontcourt
personnel, the Lions should
improve on that mark.

CUP FEVER AT CAPITOL
There is a fever going around
Philadelphia these days.
It is especially catchy if you
spend a lot of time tuned to
Channel 29 or watching the
Flyers at Broad & Patterson
while at home. This fever was
only contacted by Canadians but
now many Americans are getting
this fever. It's the Stanley Cup
fever.
This year the Broad Street
Bullies (aka The Mad Squad) are
making a serious threat at the
cup. The Flyers are presently in
second place in the West, 7
points out of first. Of the last 19
games the Flyers have lost only
3.
Many people say it may be
leadership of Bobby Clarke or
the maturity of Rick McKleish
that helped turn the Flyers
around.
But it is the view of this
reporter (a little Howard Cosell)
that the change this year came
because of the pure physical
power the Flyers now possess. In
earlier years teams would get
physical with the Flyers and the
Flyers would play dead. This
year is different, the Broad
Street Bullies are hitting people
more often and harder than any
other team in hockey. Now
teams are beginning to think

first before wanting to get
physical with the Flyers.
The fever has hit me, and I
know its hit a few Capitol
students. You can tell those
effected by the fever because
everytime they see a red light
they stand up and cheer.
