another exercise in futility for
Penn State, which earlier had
tied Maryland 0-0.
Presumably an offensive
powerhouse, the Lions scored
32 goals in ten games this
year, seven fewer than last
year's total. Only 14 came in
the last seven outings.
Yesterday they outshot the
hosts 36-15 but found them
selves unable to penetrate the
eight-man wall the Panthers
threw around their goal. Penn
State passes, moving much
quicker on the AstroTurf than
on the grass to which they
were accustomed, frequently
were well off target. One
scoring situation after
another went unused
Pitt, meanwhile, was far
less effective offensively.
Playing an inept game of
"punt and run,” the Panthers
would continually send long
passes downfield, never to be
reached by their slow-moving
forwards
One bright spot for Penn
State was freshman goalie

John Gatti, who stepped in as
the two ahead of him, Gary
Mac Math and Mike Arnold,
were sidelined by injuries.
Gatti played shakily at the
start before settling down.
"It was really amazing
because in the locker room I
thought I knew exactly where
1 was and what to do,” Gatti
said. "But when I got out
there I didn’t know what to do
for awhile.”
Gatti had seen little in the
way of stiff competition
before the game, having
played junior varsity until
this week. He finished with 10
saves, one more than Pitt’s
Bill Haines, but admitted
there were more than a few
scares for him.
”1 was really nervous,” he
said. ‘‘When I got the ball
from the fullbacks I was
uneasy because they’d either
push it to the left side or to the
right and I didn’t know which
one.
“It was just because we
hadn’t played together much
but a couple of times the ball
would be pushed almost out of
my reach But we talked at
Ihe half and got it
straightened out ”
Before the straightening
out, Gatti several times was
to 0-0
forced to make “saves” off of
passes from his teammates
as they presumably cleared
the ball out of trouble. But
Pitt goalie Haines also was
under a little pressure from
the Lions.
Three-fourths of the way
through the first half, Penn
State forward Ciro Baldino
hesitated with a shot directly
in front of the goal. Haines
recovered from the awkward
position he had been in,
knocked down Baldino’s shot,
then blocked Andy Rymarc
zuk’s following shot. He was
under sporadic pressure the
rest of the game, primarily
due to the prevent defenses
his teammates provided him
with.
For Gatti, though, the
pressure was game-long. His
first start, he knew, could
have been Penn State’s first
loss.
“That was in my mind,” he
said. “1 knew the offense had
to come through but I just
didn’t want to be the guy to
give up ‘the one.’ ”
Pitt came near to getting
that “one” several times,
in fact. One Panther shot
midway through the second
half whizzed past Gatti and
off the left goalpost. Another
he batted away; yet another
he dived for, sending it out of
trouble.

technically belonged to
neither team but Pitt claimed
“They were proud to even
tie us. You kno\j, tieing the
sixth-ranked team and all
that," Gatti said. “Actually it
was pretty disappointing to
tie a team like Pitt, with the
scores of the games they had
played and the teams they
had played against.”
Penn State now moves into
its game with St. Joseph’s,
another defense-minded
outfit, but one the Lions
dumped 4-1 in the playoffs
last year. The game obviously
is of more importance than
yesterday’s, so much so that
the Lions might have been
thinking of St. Joe’s while
playing Pitt.
“I’m pretty sure we were,”
Gatti said. “It wasn’t a really
important game for getting a
bid but it meant something to
the team.
“Everyone wanted an
undefeated year without too
many ties in there ”

Harriers set for NCAA's;
Supulski
By BILLGUTHLEIN
Collegian Senior Reporter
Coach Harry Groves will
pack up six members of his
third-place IC4A cross
country team and take them
to Houston for an extended
weekend, but not for fun and
frolic.
The 4-0 Lions have been
invited to the NCAA cham
pionships at Glenbrook Golf
Course Monday The flat
layout should mercifully
guarantee a fast paced race
under the hot Texas sun.
At least one person is
looking forward to the trip.
Senior Dan Supulski, a native
of Dansville, N.Y., thinks he
can turn in a better per
formance on a flat course.
‘T’m happy about a flat
course, I don’t consider
myself good on hills. I hope I
can do better," he said.
Supulski earned All-East
recognition along with
teammate Matt Chadwick on
the merits of his 24th place
finish in the IC4A’s last
Monday. This time he hopes
to best his 78th national figure
on the Texas course.
‘‘l should have done bet
ter," he said of his previous
national performance, ‘‘l

Meet the new Harre/son
MIAMI (AP) Ken “The
Hawk” Harrelson hasn’t
clipped his wings since
leaving baseball two years
ago to pursue a golf career.
But he has cut his hair, taken
up religion and talks about a
"big different image.”
“The last year and a half
has been the most humbling
in my life,” said the once
flamboyant and outspoken
Hawk, who has failed in his
first two attempts to earn a
card to play regularly on the
Professional Golfers
Association PGA tour.
"I feel exactly like I did
when I was in the minor
leagues of baseball,” said
Harrelson. “I knew I was
going to make the big
leagues, and I know I’m going
to make the big leagues of
golf.”
Harrelson’s earnings in golf
and most of his efforts are in
small Florida events where
he has not been a smashing
success.
H< ian only play in thi
likes going flat
wind up Everyone will be
trying for All-American, but
we’re concerned with a better
team showing than ever
before," he said
The lack of a star runner
will force the Lions to con
centrate more on a team
effort, as Supulski pointed
out The senior New Yorker
assesses his team's chances
of bettering their eighth finish
on keeping grouped and
cutting off as many com
petitors as possible
Supulski feels the Lions
stand a chance of upsetting
IC4A champion Manhattan,
paced by Mike Keogh and
Anthony Colon
"We’d have to put our top
five men between their
second and third men (Colon
and Pete Squires). But, of
course Manhattan realizes
this and will try to prevent it
It all depends on who is trying
that day," he said
Supulski thinks Penn
State's disappointing loss to
Villanova will work to its
advantage at the nationals
"There was no reason we
should have lost that one," he
said, "I think we will be
psyched up to do better after
losing to Villanova It should
help our team effort ’’
The Lions will have to be

“This competition here is a

you'll find in baseball,” said
Harreison, explaining he
didn't expect to find instant
success in golf
“It takes so much control
you just can’t be volatile This
is a gentleman’s game, the
game that requires a lot of
finesse, total concentration.”
he said.
Harreison thinks he can hit

Goalie pays
for'dogging
NICE, France iAPi A
French soccer goalie,
blaming a little dog for an
opponent's goal, knocked the
pup cold Sunday and then was
beaten up himself by animal
lovers who poured from the
stands.
Authorities said the small,
white canine came to the
match with its owner, but
broke away to get a better
view of the action from near
one of the goals.
The goalie, noting the dog's
presence, allowed a score and
then attacked the dog The
dog was slammed to the turf
and lay unconscious as its
woman owner and sym
pathizers came running
The angry spectators
jumped the goalie and began
battering him He was soon
carried unconscious from the
field while the woman began
trying to revive her puppy.
The referee suspended
play.
Reports from doctors of
both humane and human
medicine reported that both
dog and goalie were heading
for speedy recoveries.
