handled the Cadets with relative
ease, 17-8.
YOUR TEAM wrestled well to
night," he said "but either most
of the boys had their best bouts
of the year or my team just made
them look good."
Krouse said that he had seen
the Lions wrestle earlier in the
year and thought that his Terps
could handle them.
"You probably think the turn
ing point of the match was the
last bout when my man got
pinned," he said. "Actually I ex
pected that he would have a tough
time winning. The bout that hurt
us was the draw at 137 pounds."
Colorful Ed Pohland, returning
to the Lion lineup for the first
time this season provided the
margin of victory for Charlie Spei
del's • grapplers (2-2) when he
pinned the Terps' Frank Wikander
in 8:25.
The 137-pound bout that Krouse
called the crossroads found the
Lions' Dave Thiel fight to a 2-2
draw with Dave Ott.
After a, scoreless first period,
Ott reversed Thiel to gain a 2-0
lead and proceeded to ride the
Lion the remainder of the period.
'THIEL PICKED up his two
points on a reversal in the third
period and rode Ott the rest of
the way. Ott had the edge in time
advantage, 3:09 to 2:50.
Up until Pohland's winning pin,
it was the Pennsylvanians on the
Maryland squad that kept the
visitors in the match.
Ron Maunder used a riding time
point to edge State's Denny Slat
tery, 4-3, in the 123-pound bout;
Bob Kopnisky easily handled
Chuck Beatty, 8-1, in the 157-
pound bout, and Marshall Dauber
man used a reversal with three
seconds remaining to upend Mike
Gill, 6-5, in the 177-pound match.
Kopnisky's win was an easy
one for the Maryland sophomore,
but the other two were among
the most exciting bouts of the eve
ning.
SLATTERY AND MAUNDER
traded takedowns and escapes in
the first two periods, but Maunder
locked up the win by riding Slat
tery the entire third period.
Gill, after trailing the entire
bout, pulled a reversal with :46
remaining to take a 5-4 lead over
Dauberman, but the former State
ehampign pulled last second
heroics and kept Maryland in -the
match.
The Rec Hall crowd of 5,700 saw
Bob Haney and George Edwards
both run their unbeaten streaks to
four,
Haney used three takedowns, an
escape and over six minutes riding

since the 1953-54 club won 12 of
its first 14 games and drove to
a 113-ti mark and a third place
finish in the NCAA post-season
tourney.
WEST VIRGINIA has beaten
State in 10 straight games and the
Lions haven't won al Morgan
town since 1955.
"It is really difficult to win
down there," Egli said last night
as he sent his cagers through a
rough practice session, "But the
boys are up for this one. I could
sense it after the Syracuse game.
"We were sluggish and tired
at Syracuse and it seemed when
the game was over, the boys were
already pointing for West Vir
ginia. They are mentally up.
They're going down to Morgan
town to win.'
State seems not only mentally
ready, but for the first time this
season should be in good physical
shape. Senior co-captain John
Mitchell, who has been out most
of the season with a bad leg, will
make the trip and will be ready
if Egli needs him.
CENTER TERRY Hoover, who
broke his finger in the first Syra
cuse encounter, will have the
splint removed this afternoon.
And Bobby Donato and Tom
Malinchak have shaken off in
juries sustained during the Buck
nell and Colgate games.
State hasn't won more than four
straight games since the '54-53
season but the Nittanies are riding
a four game streak now. Temple
and Bucknell fell to the Lions
prior to this weekend.
The two wins on the road at
Colgate and Syracuse were the
cagers' fifth and sixth in seven
starts away from the home court.
The Nittanies trailed by as
much as 13-4 and 17-8 against the
Orange in the first half, but began
to close the gap as Earl Hoffman,
Bob Weiss and Toth Malinchak
began to find the range.
Trailing 44-40, State scored
seven straight points and led,
47-44, with 6:35 remaining. The
Lions froze the ball later in the
game, forcing Syracuse to foul,
and pulled away to their 10-point
margin.
