Hard Work. Ahead
By IRA MILLER
The preliminaries are over
for Penn State's soccer team
and from :here on in it'll be
strictly business for Ken Hos
terman's booters. The Lions
open their season Oct 6 at de
fending NCAA champion West
Chester. The home opener is
with Colgitte, October 13.
"Up to now, we've been doing
a lot of running up and down that
field and looking sloppy," Hoster
man said yesterday. "The running
can never ?hurt us, it serves for
better conditioning.
"But from here on in we'll have
to work hard tol tighten our de
fense and, polish up the offense.
You've got to when you open
against a team like West Ches

around the field. That's good for
the cross-country men. We have
to practice the things that we'll
do m the games: the quick stops,
turns and kicks."
State last b l eat West Chester in
1955, 3-2. The teams played to a
scoreless tie the folloWing season
and the Rami have won the last
five games iil the series.
In practice ; scrimmages to date,
Hosterman has had mixed teams
—composed of both vets and new
comers—opposing each other, but
changes -in the squads will be
made as the opening game draws
near. Hosterman indicated he
planned to make some changes
today or tontorrov...
Stu Ross and Al Shuss are cur
rently battling for the all-impor
tant goalie berth shared by Dave
Grubbs and '
•Jim Gottschling last
year.
Hosterman also expressed some
concern' over a disappointing
showing so far by his sophomores,
but expects some improvement as
the players gain experience.
