"West Virginia bps a good, solid football team." he said, "and any letdown will hurl us immeasurably."

Even though Coach Ken Hosterman’s hooters had not left the premises of University Park, their victory was lost among the hooping and hollering for the Lion football team, 300 miles away I But as the glimmer of Satur day’s football victory started to: dim, some Penn State sports fans began to notice the soccer team’s achievement. The Lion hooters, led by sophomore scoring ace Per Tor geson, subdued a stubborn Col gate squad to maintain their unbeaten record and give them their third victory of the year. They have one lie. Hosterman’s crew had not an ticipated much resistance from the invading Red Raiders and as a result Colgate became the first team to score upon the Lions in the 1956 season. Torgeson. an ex-resident of Nor way, and now a citizen of Long Island, N.Y., increased his team scoring leadership to Seven points wilh three goals against the Ma roon. The 24-year o.ld veteran showed no ill-effects from a leg injury that had hampered him earlier in the year. Tommy Nute and Jim Hedberg scored the other Nittany goals, Saturday. Hedberg, along with Steve Flamporis, Ralph Brower and John Lawrence were lauded by Hosterman for their fine show ing against Colgate. Hosterman used only four substitutes in the victory while his rival coach, Mark Randall, cleared his bench of all 21 mem bers of the traveling squad. Mike Stollmeyer, runnerup to Torgeson in team scoring with, four goals, was the only casualty of the fray.
