Five Lettermen, Two Sophs
Head 1956-57 Nittany Cagers
By VINCE CAROCCI
F,-uerience could prove a deter
r-;,iing factor in Penn State's
7'456-57 basketball outlook since
Coach John Egli has only five re
ing lettermen around which
to build his squad.
At the moment, the situation
on the Recreation Hall center
c'•urt seems to be that Captain
hob Leisher. center Bob Ramsay.
,and forwards Steve Baidy and
;Pon Rainey arc going to figure
the strongest in Egli's plans this
yea r.
For his fifth man. Egli will
have to choose from lettermen
Jim Jordy or sophomores Carm
Palmiero and Tom Hancock. The
battle for the fifth starting berth
seems to he a tossup at the mo
ment, all three alternating in the
spot.
The cagers were hurt by the
loss of their three leading scor
ers last year—Earl Fields. Rudy
Marisa, and Bob Hoffman—
through groduation but fortun
ately Egli has an abundant sup
ply of sophomores to work with.
Along with Palmicro and Han
cock. Egli can keep Greg Schwen
deman. Bob Edwards, Jim Patter
son and Ted Kubista to call on in
c.:;.ze of emergency. All received
experience on last year's fresh
man squad.
Rod Perry. the famed trackman.
^was a surprise candidate for the
souad and has shown a great deal
of speed and potential in previous
'workouts. However, he still needs
time to sharpen his shooting eye
and accustom himself to college
ball. He was an All-State eager
while at Coatesville High School.
'but did not compete in college
baa-ethall.
Leisher. Ramsay. Baidy. Rain
ey. and Jordy all saw a good
deal of varsity action last sea
son but none were consistent
high scorers. Each of the first
four hit a "hot" streak, but
failed off as the season pro
gressed. With the year of ex
perience under their belts. Egli
feels that they could prove to
be a high-scoring unit as they
gain the feel of actual compe
lion once more.
The Lion coach feels that this
year's club will have a much
stronger bench to depend on than
last 3.ear's. edition. However, he
feels that his sophomores will
have to ;lain the much-needed
varsity experience in order for
the team to reach its full poten
