The Penn State tennis team
swamped the Washington
Colonials, 8-1, on Saturday
but lost their biggest match of
the year to Columbia, 7-2.
The only bright spot for the
Lions was Tommy Wright. He
was matched with Bobby
Binns in the third slot! Wright
generally plays as fourth man
but a shoulder injury kept Jan
Bortner out of action
yesterday.
Wright had played Binns
twice before and lost both
times. In yesterday's match
he took him in two straight 6-3
matches. Wright overcame
an early slump to play his
best tennis of the season.
"I was psyched for this
match plus I put in a good
week of practice. I wish the
team could have done bet
ter," Wright said.
Wright seized the initiative
from the start of the match.
He hit to Binns' forehand and
kept him moving to prevent a
return. Wright also made
effective use of the drop shot.
"Tommie got on top of
Binns from the start and
wouldn't geroff until it was all
over. He wouldn't let him get
started. I think Tom could
have beaten anyone today. It
is definitely his day," Coach
Holmes Cathrall said.
The big disappointment for
the day was the absence of

his shoulder on Saturday. If
Bortner had filled his number
three position everyone would
have been pushed down to
their normal slot.
"It's a shame we lost
Bortner, he would have
meant two extra points,"
Cathrall said.
Even with Bortner the
Lions would have been
hopelessly outclassed by the
powerful New York team.

Penn State would benefit greatly from a statute limiting
lacrosse games to periods one, two and four. Unfortunately,
no such ruling seems forthcoming and the Lions had no choice
but to play the bugaboo third period against Rutgers Satur
day.
Following a precedent established at the season's outset, the
Lions fell apart like a house of cards in the quarter, leading to
their fifth loss in six games, 15-6. _ .
"It's a complete enigma to me what happened," Dick
Pencek wondered after Rutgers crushed State's first half
upset hopes. We just lost our fire. In the second half, they got
us frustrated and the more frustrated we got the worse we
played."
In the crucial third, Rutgers blew open a tight ballgame by
outscoring the Lions 6-1. They eventually outpointed State by
11-1 in the entire second half, which was a complete reversal
of the game's opening moments.
Following a cautious initial period which ended in a 1-1 knot,
Penn State overwhemlmingly dominated the first half of the
second. Pressuring the unsettled Knight defense with some
shooting and crisp passing, Rutgers began to respond in a
fashion not entirely legal. As a result, Penn State got ample
opportunity to practice its extra-man offense and soon bolted
into a 5-11ead with seven minutes left in the quarter.

Finding that its penalty box tactics were playing into the
Lions' hands, Rutgers began a more controlled pattern of play
and pulled within a tally as the period ended. But the
momentum had turned enough in its favor that within five
minutes of the third period, Rutgers was able to pull ahead for
the first time on an Andy Haugevik screamer. Silver, whose
unsuccessful attempt at a steal had left the big midfielder
free, responded in kind and the score was even at six apiece.
Then came the controversial play which proved to be the
turning point against Penn State's upset hopes. While goalie
Paul Schuepp was scooping up a bad pass outside the cage on
an attempted clear, George Massey checked him viciously,
doubles combination of
Issadore and Pollock. Tlicy
defeated Fagel and Petrine in
three sets, 6-1, 5-7, 7-5.
Walker Shivar played a
good match but lost to fresh
man Rick Fagel 6-4, 6-1.
Fagel is one of the best tennis
players on the East coast.
John Karr won his first set,
6-3, but dropped the next two,
6-2, 6-3, to lose to Doug
Grunther. Bruce Issadore lost
to Henry Bunis, 6-2, 6-3. Cliff
Myers lost, 7-6, 6-4 to Kirk
Moritz.
Doug Pollock played his
second singles match of the
season and was defeated by
Mark Massey 6-3, 6-1.
Cathrall felt Pollock could
have won if he had some
competition in singles under
his belt.
Shivar and Wright dropped
their doubles match to
Massey and Binns in two sets,
6-3, 6-4. Both duos are former
Eastern Intercollegiate
champions. Cathrall felt
Shiver and Wright could have
beaten them in other cir
cumstances.
"After losing the match in
the singles I don't think the
boys tried as hard as if we had
a chance of winning," the
Lion coach said.

stole the ball and waltzed in for an open net tie-breaker. From
almost any angle on the field, the check appeared to be
delivered illegally from behind, a fact with which both the
fans and the Penn State coaching staff freely enlightened the
referees. The officials ruled otherwise, as is the case, and
Penn State was behind for good.
"In my mind, there's no question about it," Pencek said
afterwards. "That was an illegal check."
Another facet of the Rutgers style of play also came into
considerable questioning from the coaching lines. Some of the
stick tactics on wrap-arounds seemed akin to decapitation. If
the defenseman is going after the dodgers stick, then it is
legal, Pencek explained, only if his stick is under control.
"When their number three hooked Jeff Crowley around the
neck that one time, if he hadn't hit Jeff's stick he could have
seriously hurt him. But if you're getting away with it and it's
effective, there's nothing you can do about it."
Jim Trenz will swear out an affadavit to its effectiveness.
Ed Haugevik glued himself to Penn State's leading scorer all
afternoon, and when Trenz manageita shot it had to first
travel through another defenseman who dropped off his man
every time Trenz had the ball. Trenz' statistics for the day
read one assist.
