Lacrosse Team Scores
Upset Over Maryland
Penn State's lacrosse team scored its most important vic
tory of the season when the Lions rudely jolted,the Maryland
Lacrosse Club, 7-6, in an overtime thriller nere last Saturday.
Even though the visitors were not at full strength, the victory
was a feather in the hats of coaches Nick Thiel and John Mc-
Hugh, who had worked long and hard with the Nittany Lions.
After Penn State lost tough
games to Syracuse and Loyola of
Baltimore, the hard work paid off
as the Lions' hard-pressing de
fense resulted in many intercep
tions and in general seemed to
break up the Maryland Offensive.
Benedetti Superb
As for the game itself, there
were no outstanding individuals
although goalie Phil Benedetti
played some superb ball 'around
the net. Benedetti came up with
21 saves to raise his 'total . to 11,0.
The Lion goalie also came up
with some outstanding clears.
Offensively for State, John 4
"Doak" Walker and 'substitute
Dick Rostmeyer paced the attack
with two tallies apiece. However,
it took the team's best shot, mid
fielder Paul Raffensperger, to
give the Lions the win.
Raffy sent the winning goal
home at 2:15 of the first five
minute overtime period. Attack- 7
man Bernie Hagberg tied, the
count seconds later but the whis
tle had blown and the score was
not allowed. In the second five
minute overtime, both clubs
played to a standstill.
Two Men Out
Prior to Raffensperger's goal,
Penn State had tied the count at
six when Rostmeyer netted the
second of his two tallies just 1:50
before the regulation end.
,State
was fortunate in that the visitors
at the time had two men in .the
penalty box. Even at that, the
Marylanders had grabbed a' 6-5
edge 'when Ray Wittelsberger
picked a loose ball from the
ground and slammed one in at
57:34.
For the fifth time in six con
tests this season, Penn State
scored the first goal. And for -the
third time, it was Walker who
found the range. The State at
tackman hit the nets at .1:05.
However, Wittelsberger created a
tie at one when he scored with
35 seconds remaining in the first
quarter.
Ifer!fing, Fulton S t ore
State stretched its lead to 3-1
at, half when Ed Herring took a
pass from Jack Wilcox to register
at 19:00, and Al Fulton did like
wise from Bud Wolfram to tally
at 20:5"5.
Things loOked rather gloomy
for Thiel's crew in the third per
iod when two goals by Howard
Heiss and another by Frank
Prince sent the Marylanders into
a 4-3 lead. However, Rostmeyer's
first score gave State a 4-4 tie.
Score Tied
After 2:35 of the final stanza
it was a 6-6 stalemate. Howard
Hughes gave the invading team a
one-point lead, but State quickly
tied it again 55 seconds later on
a 'shot by Walker.
Then came goals by Wittels
berger, Rostaneyer, and Raffen
sperger and with it went the ball
game as far the Marylanders
were concerned.

7 Out Of 9
In recording their seventh tri
umph in nine starts, Coach Sherm
Fogg's pupils copped four of the
six singles events, and two out
of the three doubles.
Thus far this season, the Piety
Hill battalion has won two, and
lost three contests.
Even though the Nittanies con
tinued to mow down the rival
opposition in fashionable style,
it seems that Lady Luck keeps on
plaguing Captain Owen Landon
as the No. 1 starter dropped two
close sets to undefeated Hal Mc-
Grath, 4-6, 4-6.
Wieland Wins Again
However, Dick Wieland paced
his teammates, easily disposing
of veteran Bob Leibert in straight
sets. His scores were 6-2 and 6-4.
In the third singles event, Bill
Aiken took the measure of Bob
Bascom in three sets, defeating
the Oranges' No. 3 man, 7-5, 6-3,
6-2.
Rallying with backhand and
forehand drives, Ed Davis easily
took the first set from Bob Os
wald, 6-3, but dropped second,
3-6. But Davis came back strong
in the crucial one, winning, 7-5.
Simms Tops Wood
The Orangemen garnered their
second tally when John Simms
tripped Bill Wood, 6-3, 5-7, and
5-7.
Sophomore Bill Forrey raised
the count to 4-2 when he topped
Frank DePara, 6-4, 3-6, 6-3.
