Holy Cross
Lions' Grid
By JOHN MORRIS
Sports Editor
Holy Cross quarterback Pat
McCarthy has been named to
the Penn State all-opponent
team for two straight years,
an honor that he claimed oyer
the likis of George Mira, Dick
Shiner and Dick Eckert to name
a few.
McCarthy really appreciates-the
recognition, but he .would much
rather be on the winning team
than the all-opponent team. j
THE CHUSADERS have a per
fect record against the. Lions.
They have lost all seven games in
the series, and a couple of those
weren’t even close. Because of the
Lions’ domination, Holy Cross has
decided to discontinue the series
'after the'l963 game.
McCarthy will get his last
‘chance to be on a team that beats
Penn State when the Lions (7-1)
clash in Worcester, Mass., tomor
row afternoon. ,
In his two outings against' the
Nittanies, McCarthy has com
pleted 20 of 50 passes for 302
yards and two touchdowns. Both
TD throws came in last year’s
game and were identical 41-yard
heaves to halfback A 1 Snyder.
McCarthy is presently ranked
seventh- nationally in" total" of
fense, and is a threat as a runner
or a passer. ( y .
‘‘McCarthy is an excellent foot
ball player,” State scout J. T.
White reports. "He can hurt you
in several ways. Against VMI
last week he rushed for 83 yards
and passed for 91. We must be
alert against his roll-out runhing.”
Snyder, McCarthy’s favorite
target, also returns to haunt the
Nittanies. The 14th ranked pass
receiver in the country, Snyder
has 28 catches for 529 yards and
three touchdowns.
■ In addition, McCarthy’s other
backfield playmates Tom Hen
nessey and Hank Cutting ‘— also
return for another shot [at the
Lions. . • ' [
Every member of the Holy
Cross backfield is a senior who
has played in losing , j efforts
against the Lions. McCarthy. Hen
nessey and Snyder have been reg
ulars for three straight' years.
Cutting was switched to fullback
from halfback.
Hennessey is the Crusaders’ out
standing runner for the third
straight year. Nicknamed “the
Brookline Blur” (he lives in
Brookline, Mass.), he ran a kick
off back .85 yards against Har
vard the first time he touched the
ball as a collegian.
The backfield has hern the
strength of the Crusaders this
season, but the line seemed im
proved in last week's 20-14 vic
tory over VMI.
"THEIR LINE was bolstered
considerably by the return of
their best tackle. Denny Golden.”
White said in his scouting report..
“He hadn't played since he was
injured against Harvard in their I
third gathe, but he'll be in top!
shape for our game.” ~ ■ '
.Golden, a 6-4. 228-pound senior..
was being boomed for’ All-East—
honors before his injury.
Regular left tackle John West- i
field had also been hampered by i
injuries earlier in the season, but

in the Crusaders’ last two out

Sophomore Tom Nissi and jun
ior Bob Murphy will probably be
the starting guards. Senior Charles
Capparelli could break into the
lineup if he is healthy.
Bob Hargraves and Pat Vetrano
are the Cruaders’ ends. Both are
equally adept at offense as well

the Crusaders' top lineman. At

Stage Set for
Cross-Country
For thousands of white collar workers in New York City,
Monday will simply mean the start of another hectic week.
Before five o'clock, the mad rush to suburbia begins by
crowded subways and commuter trains and in bumper-to
bumper traffic on a maze of highway arteries. v
But for many of the nation’s top distance runners, Mon
day marks the battle for IC4A supremacy. At 2:15 p.m.. more
than 200 harriers—unnoticed by these “sophisticated’’ suburb
anites—will begin a five-mile run
around Van Cortlandt Park in the
Bronx section of New York City.
This year’s race, the 54th an
nual event sponsored by the
ECAC Conference, may shape up
to be one of the mast hotly con
tested in the past decade.
The day of reckoning may
come for Michigan State, winner
of the IC4A cross-country’ title
five times in. the past six years.
Penn State, Villanova, George
town and Harvard loom as threats
to mar the Spartans’:, envied rec
ord:
TUESDAY, HOWEVER. Michi
gan State easily captured the Big
Ten Conference cr o s s-country
crown and. as a result, proved
that the Spartans are determined
not to lose the IC4A throne and,
the prestige that goes along, with
it.
On Monday, an increasingly
strong Navy contingent, won the
Heptagonal Cross-country Charh
piortship at Van Cortlandt Park
by posting a low score of 79. Har-:
•yard, with three of its runners
finishing among the first six har-j
riers, garnered runner-up honors
with 85 points. 1
Villahova, a perennially power- ■
ful competitor in cross-country
and track meets, boasts a couple
of sophomore performers and
depth in a group of returning
lettermen. State harrier coach
John Lucas also adds Georgetown
to the list of IC4A favorites.
.The Lions' Howie ‘Deardorff
stands.as one of the best choices
to gam individual honors. But
the speedyvSLite captain may find
plenty of .first class opposition.
Last Cornell’s highly
heralded Steve Machooka, then a
.sophomore, finished first in the
IC4A’s in 26:02.9 minutes. jThis
year Machooka will not compete
because of aeaitemie difficulties
at. the Ithaca (N.Y.I. university,
but there are many qualified lun
ners to take his place.
Among the best distance run
ners entered is Edwin Hamlin of i
Harvard,. who trotted over the
Van Cortlandl Park track m !
26:02.6 minutes in Monday's lh-p- ,
tagonals. Hamlin’s time was .3 '
seconds better than Mat-hooka's
'6l performance.
