Lions Face Easier Slate
Despite 12 Road Games
By JIM BUKATA
The prospect of not having
to play teams like Ohio State,
Duke, Niagara, lowa and Holy
Cross this season makes the
future seem rather bright for
head coach John Egli’s cagers.
However, what makes the
schedule a rough one is the fact
that the Lions play 12 of their
20 games on the road where
its tough to beat anyone.
•The Lions will face a stern test
in their .opener Saturday evening
when they travel to Maryland-..
THE TERPS are considered the
"darkhorse" of the powerful At
lantic Coast Conference and are
led by Jerry Greenspan, being
boomed by the Terps as an All
America Candidate.

The Engineers lost high scoring
Norm Brandi and four other ball-
E layers while Colgate lost Bob

record at the New' York school.
Syracuse should improve on. its
disasterous 2-20 record of iast
year, but still should be no trouble
for ti»e Lions..
Arch rival Pittsburgh could
present one of the lop teams in
the East.
