Middies Extend
Mastery Over
Stickmen, 17-4
One of the oldest jinxes in
the history of Penn State ath
letics was preserved Saturday
at Annapolis, Md., when
!Navy's unbeaten Lacrossemen
handed the Lion stickmen
their second loss of the campaign,
17-4.
Since the Navy-Penn State la
crosse series began back in 1919,
the Middies have never fallen to
the local stickmen. The service
academy added victory number
27 to their record books, Satur
day.
Jerry Johnston and All-Ameri
can grid star Ron Beagle led the
Middle attack. Johnston was the
scoring leader, finding the range
of the Nittany goal for four points
while the 6', 190-pound Beagle
proved his All-American worth
at lacrosse as a bulwark on both
offense and defense.
Girard Scores Twice
Attackman Lou Girard was the
main threat for Coach Nick Thiel
with two goals. Sophomore flash
Bill Hess—the Lion scoring lead
er with 19 goals—was held to
one goal by the stout Navy de
fense.
Although highly-pressed by the
Middie defense, Hess still man
aged to come up with a standout
game. His play was so sharp that
Middie Coach Dinty Moore said
later he would "trade any 12 of
his players for Hess."
Navy Scores Early
The game was only seven sec
onds old when junior attackman
Shannon Heyward slipped the ball
past Lion goal keeper Jim Houck.
Hess tied it up 45 seconds later
but Navy's Jim Carter pu the
but Navy's Jim Carter put the
;ments after Hess' shot.
The Middies increased their
lead by a 6-2 count at the end of
the first period and enjoyed a
comfortable 8-3 margin at the
half.
It was all Navy during the sec
ond half as the Lion's could mus
ter only one score—that by mid
fielder Andy Bergeson in the third
quarter. Bergeson played despite
a slight shoulder separation re
ceived in the Loyola fray Friday.
Fiscus Injured
Another injury occurred when
midfielder Glenn Fiscus suffered
a sprained ankle. These two in
juries, coupled with the absence
of captain Bob Hamel, left a
weakness at the Nittany midfield
Ithat could not cope with the ex
perienced Navy midfield.
The Middies attempted 56 shots
at the Lion goal while limiting
the Nittany stickmen to 23 shots.
Coach Nick Thiel's stickmen
will try once more for their fifth
victory next Saturday at Phila
delphia against the University of
Pennsylvania.
Gilbert Leu, Penn State ex
change student from Switzerland,
will compete for the Lions in the
National AAU gymnastics cham
pionships.
