THURSDAY, JANUARY 18, 1981 Wrestlers Seek Third Wm At Pitt Penn State’s matmen will take on a vastly improved Pitt crew under coach Rex Peery in Pittsburgh this weekend. Coach,Charlie Speidel’s wrestlers will be out to make it three in a row this season. Captain Homer Barr, the “People’s Choice,” is working on a personal win streak of 18 straight dual meet victories without a de feat. His Panther opponent in the heavyweight class will be John Nsarik, who has thus far lost two matches. Last year, Penn,State adminis tered a 32-0 defeat to the not-so ferocious ' Panthers, who were then in their first season of wrest ling since the sport was suspend ed for the 1939-40 season. Peery doesn’t expect to make many changes in the lineup that defeated Kent State last weekend. He will probably go with John ny George in 123; Ray Capelli, 130; Harold Miller, 137; Frank Skirpan, 147; Captain Jim' Conk lin, 157; Marven Krauss, 167; and Joe Kane, 177. Speidel will probably also stick with his winning lineup, although there is a possibility that the elimination bouts may change it at the last minute. v Johnny Reese will most likely see action in 123; Dean Harbold, 130; Don Maurey, 137; Don Frey, 147; Bill Santel, 157; Joe Lemyre. 167; and Mike Rubino, 177. Of that lineup, Reese, Harbold and Maurfey have been defeated once in the two Nittany victories. Pitt, Lion Freshman Grapplers Meet Sat. Coach Charlie Ridenour’s fresh man wrestlers will seek their sec ond consecutive victory when they journey tor Pittsburgh Sat urday ~ to engage the Panther freshmen in a match . that will start at 1:45.

When Penn State’s basketball team entertains Gettysburg Sat urday night in Rec hall, the Liohs’ will attempt to capture their first Saturday win on home hardwood. Although the Lions will prob ably be installed as pre-game fayojdtes, the hot-and-cold Bullets cannot be taken lightly. Last season Elmer Gross’ squad, heavily favored, fell before the unpredictable Bullets’ last quar ter barrage, 66-65. With nine veterans in his lineup, Coach Hen Bream’s cagers have broken even in their first eight games. After'losing to Pitt, 65-50, the Bullets romped over Johns Hopkins, 86-68, and Mt. Saint Mary’s, '7B-63. Powerful LaSalle and Cornell defeated the Gettysburgers in their next'two outings, but the ambitious Bullets threw a scare into the Explorers before bowing 70-65. Cornell walked off with an easy 82-45 victory. Just what to expect from Gettysburg this weekend is any one’s guess. You can not specu late on a team that came within six points of beating La Salle on the Explorers’ court and then two nights later fall easy prey to a visiting Cornell team. Although Bream is without the services of twice All-Stater Bucky Harris, high-scoring Harry Pure, and Ross Sachs, he still can count on Bob O’Brien, who tossed in 224 points last year, and Hank Belber, a fancy playmaker and set-shot artist. Coach Joe Tocci’s freshman team will try to get back on the win trail when it takes on Frost burg Teachers College in a pre liminary to the varsity game at 7 o’clock.

Carolina, February 3 The great pile of paraphernalia to the rear of Rec hall is grad ually, if stubbornly, beginning to mold the men who use it into an other Gene Wettstone gymnastic edition for Penn State. Wettstone, starting his 14th year at the helm of the Lion tumbl- ing fortunes, has one of the tough est assignments of his career ,as he attempts to keep one eye on the schedule and another on the draft, reserves, etc. Draft-Hit Already the victim of reserve units to the tune of three tum blers and a parallel-bars man, the veteran coach is anxiously await ing his first meet with North Carolina on Feb. 3, hoping that the draft will not make too deep an inroad into his squad—for that meet anyway. The Tarheels are. coached by Bill Meade, former Nittany gymnast. The 1951 team.will center about Captain Rudy Valentino, last year’s Eastern Intercollegiate tumbling champion, and Dave Benner, who came in fourth in the National Championships. When the Nittany Lion cagers meet American university on the Rec hall court Feb. 21, the Lions will be trying for their 13th win in' 15 contests with the Eagles.

Although the Big Red mermen scored a 56-19 season opener vic tory over thrice-beaten Univer sity of Pennsylvania, the present Cornell aggregation does not pos sess the same strength as the squad which last season trimmed Pe'nn State, 53-22. The Cayuga watermen show power in the freestyle dashes and in the breaststroke but are weak in two of Coach Gutteron’s fortes—the 440-yard freestyle and the 200-yard backstroke.
