Commonwealth Campus League
Cubs Win Regional Trophy
In Tournament At U. P.
Coach Marty Malkin, in his first year as coach of the Behrend Basketball team, has succeeded in
giving the Campus another winning season. After winning 12 games in a row, the team went down to
University Park last weekend and nonchalantly "smoked" two more teams to win the regional trophy
for the Commonwealth Campus League.
The first game, against Schuyl
kill was a slow [game. (Neither
team was hitting very well, and
the Cubs were only winning by
2 points at halftime. Although
our zone-press defense wasn't ef
fective at all, the Cuibs were big
ger and stronger and they coast
ed to an 89-77 victory. Shooting
came out to 36% (field goals) and
68% (foul line) and the high
scorers were Doug Zimmerman
-32 and Gary Boroway-26, Bob
Schweitzer-10 and Dan Porath—
t 0.
The !championship !game was
quite a different story. Ogontz
was expecting the Cubs to play
the usual zone press defense
which they have been using
throughout the season, but the
Cubs pulled a switch and decided
to start with a man-to-man de
fense, after not using it for two
months. It worked so well that
the Cubs stuck to it for the whole
game . and blew Ogontz off the
court 107-78. The Cubs ran and

bounds) Zimmerman (13), and
Schweitzer (12).
RECAP OF THE SEASON
The 1969-70 basketball season
started out with a 2-5 record be
fore the Christmas vacation. It
was a slow start due to the fact
that the team needed time to ad
just to a new coach and to the.
other team members. After the
vacation "the ball began to roll."
The team members got to know
each other better and learned
how to play as a team. It played
off very well, for they ended with

a 16-6 record with a 1.4 game
winning streak, as well 'as
.win
ning the Regional Basketball
Tournament for Commonwealth
Campuses. A big factor involved
in this winning streak was that
most of the wins were at home
while the losses were all on the
road. The home court gave the
Cubs the confidence and incen
tive to use all their ability and to
win. Other accomplishments were
the breaking of 7 records by Doug
Zimmerman as well as several
other second and third place ac
complishments by Bob Schweitzer
and Mike Hook.
In conclusion, as Sports Editor
of the Nittany Cub, I would like
to congratulate Coach Malkin and
most important of all, the team
members who gave Behrend an
other winning season. They did
an outstanding job and took the
trophy home. I mean Brought the
Trophy Home.
