Bisons Withstand Rallyu ennon Wilt
To Win Overtime Test Get All'American Berths
Penn State dosed its basketball season on a losing note
last night, falling in a single-overtime duel before an under
rated Bucknell five, 75-73, at Lewisburg. The loss was the
Lions’ 11th in 19 games.
The Bucknell frosh topped the Xittany frosh, 71-53, in a
preliminary test. * * *
In winning, the Bisons in
creased their home-court vic
tory skein over the Lions to
three consecutive years and. in
the process, did what no other
Bison club has been able to do
in the last 10 years—beat Penn
State twice in one season. The
Herd look the first step to that
goal when they lopped the
Lions. -63-S6. in their season's
first meeting two weeks ago at
Recreation Hall.
The victory, the Bisons’ fifth in
a row. pushed their season's card
to 35-8. They close the year with
a home contest against Muhlen
berg Saturday night.
In a gam? that saw the lead
change hands twice—the score
was lied three times—the Bisons
had to withstand a desperation
rally by Penn State to grab the
tight victory.
With the Lions on the short
•nd of a 55-39 count in the lat
ter part of the second period—
a situation that looked as bleak
as a storm at sea—Co-Captain
Ron Rainey and junior Ted Ku
bista took Lion scoring affairs
into their own' bands to put
their club back within striking ;
distance.
Scoring 17 points between them
—Rainey nine, Kubista eight—
the Lions tied the score 69-69 in
the final minutes on a Rainey
goal.
Big Hal Danzig put the Bisons
out front temporarily, 71- -69. on a
tap. However, Rainey, bis shots
falling in with amazing accuracy l
at this point hit with a jump
from the right side just as the
buzzer went off to send the game l
into overtime, 71-71.
In the overtime. Jack Flanegani
and Rainey traded baskets before

needs only 21 points in the

Flanegan and Elis Harley gave,

needed with 16 and 12.
