Bedenkmen Face
Colgate at Home
With its final road trip of the
season completed, the Nittany
Lion baseball team returns to
New Beaver Field tomorrow
afternoon to meet Colgate in the
first engagement of a final four
game home stand.
Captain Bob G ehr et t, who
dropped an 8-5 decision to Navy
in his last turn on the hill, will
draw the starting assignment for
tomorrow's encounter.
A banner "Big Weekend" crowd
is expected to attend tomorrow's
tilt to watch the Blue and White
diamondmen seek victory num
ber ten for the year.
FOUR AT HOME
After a disastrous road trip
that netted only one victory in
three starts, the Bedenkmen are
favored by a schedule which has
their final four engagements on
home territory.
Following tomorrow's contest
with the Red Raiders, Temple's
powerful nine invades State Col
lege next Wednesday for a single
game.
The Presidents of Washington
and Jefferson help the Bedenk
men round out the 1948 baseball
season by meeting the Lions in
single contests here next Friday
and Saturday.
TWO IN A ROW
During the three-game stand on
foreign fields, which ended with
a 6-1 victory over Bucknell Wed
nesday, the College nine dropped
tilts to both Navy and Villanova.
It marked the first time this sea
son that the Nittany nine found
itself on the losing end of the
score in two consecutive tussles.
The one win and two defeats
left the local team with a record
of nine wins and four losses for
the year to date.
