Penn State and Syracuse
in a t c h basketball winning
streaks when the two clubs do
battle at 8 tonight on the Rec
reation Hall center court.
There is no preliminary game.
Neither winning streak can
be considered of major length,
however. Syracuse, 6-8 on the
season, has a three-game skein
going while the Lions, 6-6 for the
year, have won two in a row.
But both teams need them to re
tain hopes for a winning season.
The Orange will also be out to
maintain a five-game winning
streak over the Lions. Coach
Marc Guley's crew has not lost
to the Lions since early in the
1954-55 season.
In their only appearance at Rec
Ball last year, the Orange ran
the Lions through the boards,
'75-45. In a return engagement,
this time at Syracuse, the Orange
won again, 66-55.
If Ibis sounds familiar. it is
only because it is true: this is
the third "must" game in a row
for the Lions. A win tonight
would put them above the .500
mark for only the second time
this year—and on the road to
that winning season, if only by
one game.
