ECAC Rules
Sherry Out
As Cager
Penn State's hopes for the com
ing basketball season were dealt
a severe blow when the Univer
sity was notified by the Eastern
Collegiate Athletic Conference
that Jack Sherry, captain of last
year's fine team, would be in
eligible this season.
The ECAC has a ruling which
prohibits any athlete from par
ticipating in more than one year
of a freshman sport, and three
years of any varsity sport. Sherry
came to. Penn State in the winter
of 1951, and played on the fresh
man team his first semester. He
moved up to the varsity while
only a second semester freshman,
and now has exhausted his eligi
bility. This year would-have been
Sherry's fifth year of actual com
petition as a basketball player.
Dean Ernest B. McCoy, director
of athletics, and a member of the
ECAC eligibility committee was
notified of the ruling;
The loss of Sherry will be a
tough break for rookie coach John
Egli. Last year Sherry was a
standout in the Lion attack. His
11.6 p o int s per game scoring
average set him right behind team
leader Jesse Arnelle in that de
partment, but his true worth was
not in his scoring ability. He was
cool under fire, and a steadying
influence on the rest of the team.
SherrY was one of the main rea
sons for the Lions' surprise third
place finish in the NCAA play
offs last winter.
Sherry, one of the best all
around athletes at the University,
was also a fine football player for
the past three years. He was able
to play football this season be
cause it was only his fourth year
of participation in the gridiron
sport.
