Booters Win, 14-1, Set Record
1939 Mark Erased; Lions
Net 7 4th-Quarter Goafs
Penn State’s soccer team kicked the dust off the record hooks
Saturday to pen in a rie;w scoring, mark, humbling Bucknell, 14-1,
in the season opener. The Lions’ scoring spree—topped off by seven
goals in the fourth quarter—crossed out a 15-year-old record set
against Carnegie Tech when the Lions’ racked the Titans, 13-1.
A quick look at the sheet reg
istering the number of shots at
tempted by each, squad almost
explains how well the Lions dom
inated the play.
Penn' State practically turned
the game into a travesty in at
tempting 74 goals compared' to
Bucknell’s nine,
Actually a Bucknell player en
abled the Lions to set their scor
ing record. Late in.. the fourth
quarter, with the score at 12-1.
Vic Rosner—Bucknell halfback—
accidentally tallied for Penn
State when he tried to block a
pass from Joe Mijares in front
of the net.
Outstanding Line Play
The other 13 goals were scored
by _ Penn State’s veteran line
which played havoc with the Bi
sons’ defense. Captain Jack Pine
zich led the Lions with four goals,
and Dick Packer, a junior sensa
tion at- the. center forward slot,
netted three.
Tom Nute, sophomore newcom
er to the Lions’ roster, and Dick
Matacia each scored two goals;
Mert Springer and Joe Mijares
also scored.
The Lions managed to hold
Bucknell scoreless until the
fourth quarter. Aaron Clark, . a
substitute lineman, finally stop
ped Penn State’s bid to shutout
Bucknell for the fourth straight
year with a goal at 8:32. Clark
rifled the ball past the unguarded
Lion net when goalie George
Geczy moved out in a -futile at
tempt to stop the play.
First Lion Score
Packet: started the parade of
Lion scores midway in the first
period with a ten-yard boot at
13:31. Pinezich scored two min
utes later on a penalty kick.
Nearly nine minutes elapsed be
fore Pinezich chalked up his sec
ond goal in a spectacular play.
The classy lineman attempted a
goal, but-it was partially blocked
by the Orange and Black goalie;
Pinezich, however, carried by the
momentum, of his initial kick
plastered the ball into the Buck
nell goal, "then slipped, and slith
ered under the net just missing
serious injury.
_ With two minutes left in the
first half, Packer passed to Nute
who scored his first varsity goal
to give the Lions a 4-0 lead.
: " While the Lion halfbacks con
tinually snagged Bucknell’s pass
ing attempts in their effort to
opeh an offensive attack, 'the
Lions pierced the Bison’s defense
in the third quarter for 18 shots.
Springer, Matacia, and Pinezich
scored on three of those attempts
to boost Penn State’s lead to 7-0.
The final stanza was a tragic
nightmare for Bueknell Coach
Henry Peters, who suffered his
fourth loss by a Penn State team.

SYRACUSE POST MORTEMS
The 32nd football game in the long Penn State-Syracuse rivalry
may-not have been as colorful as many in the past, but it had its
moments.
Football, whether played in the southwest or the east still
evolves ground the fundamentals. They still win football games.
Penn" State’s tackling, blocking, and defensive line play was a
beautiful thing to see Saturday. The Nittanies won the game—a
more important win than it actually appears—on the strength of
these fundamentals. The Orange could make only 67 yards on the
ground-and 24 through the air ways, while the Nittanies ground
out 188 and two touchdowns.
Ron Younker's 50-yard punt return in the third period pro
duced some of the finesttdowrii field blocking we've seen in any
football game. Jim Garriiy, Chuck Sowers, EarL Shumaker, and
Don Bailey all took a crack at Syracuse defenders while Younkers
sped down the right side line.
Rip Engle appeared happier Saturday than he did following, the
Illinois game. -
“It was a big one to win,” he said, “and we’re certainly happy
about it.”
“The boys made a lot of mistakes,” he added, “but they weren’t
fundamental mistakes. They were mechanical errors and you can’t
do anything about them. Maybe we have the fumbles and missed
passes out of our system now.”
Engle’s biggest worry about this one seemed to concern his
team’s mental condition. The- win against Illinois was a big one
and Engle knew how tough the Orange could be at bleak Archbold
Stadium, scene of so many Penn State Waterloos.
But the win apparently erased all fears.
( * * * *
As in the Illinois game, several breaks Saturday could have
given the Lions two or three more, touchdowns. Don Bailey, who
is fast proving himself a more than adequate replacement for Tony
Rados, had some bad luck in his passing. He saw two of his passes
dropped that were labeled touchdown. j
And the. Nittanies were well on their way to another score
in the third quarter when Lenny Moore fumbled on the 13 yard
line.
