Penn State’s fieshman basket
ball team went on a scoring spree
Friday afternoon at Altoona and
ran up a lopsided 107-61 victory
over a completely outclassed Al
toona Center five.
j Six men hit the double figures
for the Nittany neophytes as for
ward Frank Shea took scoring
honors with 20 points.
The Altoona aggregation, which
posts a respectable 14-5 season
record, made a game of it for the
first quarter. But the Lion Cubs
began to pull away in the second
period and held a 43-28 margin
at the half.
A 41-point splurge in the third
period iced the fray for the Cuts,
who turned on the power and
coasted to the 45-point victory
spread.
