Well it looks like your
friendly neighborhood
sportswriter has underestimated
our football team. It seems like
the Lions just may be invited to
one of the New Year's Day,
extravaganzas, namely the Sugar
Bowl. After the Lions' win over
West Virginia there was serious
talk about a Sugar Bowl bid.
Although it is the least
prestigious of the January 1
classics, it still represents an
achievement that seemed so far
away at the beginning of the
season.
State has played well in the
last three weeks, defeating W.
Virginia, Syracuse, and last week
Maryland. Although the scores
were not particularly
overwhelming except for the
latter, a 46-16 shellacking, they
did represent a solid team
effort— something that Joe
Paterno was not getting out of
his team earlier in the year. In
the game against the Orangemen,
John Cappelletti ran for 162
yards while the rest of the team
held on for a sluggish 17-0
victory. The game featured a
series of mistakes by both sides
including two costly pass
interference penalties against
Syracuse that set up State's
second TD.

Mountaineers of West Virginia

created a few breaks on their
way to a 28-19 decision. On the
opening kick-off Ken Marbury
of West Virginia ran it back 100
yds for a touchdown. Then Penn
State took the ball down to the
two and fumbled. On the
ensuing play Randy Crowder
intercepted, and the Lions took
advantage of it by completing
the drive with a 7 yard pass to
Dan Natale. A typical college
game features lots of errors and
big plays; this one was no.
different. The contest featured a
safety, a long keckoff return and
a long run executed by sub Ken
Andrews who raced 67 yards
with a swing pass to score.
Last week against the
Terrapins, John Hufnagel broke
a Beaver Stadium record with
290 yards passing. The game was
decided for many after the
opening series as Hufnagel lofted
a bomb to Jim Scott that took it
down to the 3 yard line. The
Lion defence was excellent
especially their pass rush. The
capacity Band Day crowd was
treated to their best home game
this year.
If Penn State accepts a bowl
bid, I'll have some info on,
getting tickets for the game in
the next issue for anybody who
wants to lay out the dough to
see the Lions venture into the
vast football wilderness of New
Orleans, Miami, or Dallas.

season
The soccer team ended its
season with a 5-5 record and a
lot of hope for the future. Their
last game was a loss to York by
way of a 3-1 score. York scored
on a cheap one, as we would say,
and held on for the win despite
good hustle by the Highacres
team.
Prior to that, Hazleton lost to
Mt. Alto 4-0, defeated Dubois
by the same score and beat
Pinebrook 3-1. If they had
beaten Mt. Alto they might have
gone to the U. Park tourney, but
they lost to the more balanced
team. Against Pinebrook it was a
one man show as Baffling Bill
Crompton banged three home.
Everyone played well. Against
Dubois it was nearly the same
story as Bill scored the first goal
on a corner kick pass from
Hustling Harry Hintz. It proved
to be the winning goal in the
shutout victory.
The leading scorers over the
year were Crompton with 9
goals and Scott Peasley with the
same number. It is felt that
everyone had learned alot this
year and that this knowledge
will help them next year. I am
printing this years roster for the
benifit of those NASL scouts
who might be reading these
pearls of wisdom, and for those
who feel that these brave men
deserve a little respect.
