The afternoon got off to a
relatively quiet start with
Lion number two man Walker
Shivar and number four Tom
Wright posting victories in
their singles matches to give
Penn State an early 2-0 lead.

Larry Loeb, fought to a 6-6 tie

and finished it with a nine
point tiebreaker. With the
score 3-3, Shivar forced Loeb
into a mistake at the baseline
and then smashed a short lob
to take the set.
Loeb, who knocked Shivar
out of the Easterns two years
ago, was clearly dominated in
the second set, 6-2. Shivar
drilled a Loeb serve down the
line for the final point.
"I'm playing the best tennis
now that I've ever played,"
the Lion senior said after the
match.
Wright's match with
Quaker Herb Benham went to
the tiebreaker in both sets.
After winning the first set,
Wright trailed throughout the
second until he broke Benham
to even it at 5-5. At this point,
Wright rattled the Penn man
with a series of passing shots
and finally won the set 7-6.
"He had some unbelievable
passing shots and a great
lob," Benham said af
terwards.
Penn State number one Jan
Bortner took the day's only
loss, a 7-6, 6-3 defeat to Steve
Yellin.
Bortner had his first serve
working until the final few
games, but had difficulty
keeping the ball in play. When
Bortner's groundstrokes were
in, however, they did a good
job of keeping Yellin off
balance, allowing Bortner to
work for good position.

Holmes Cathrall called the
deciding match. Karr is just
getting over a cold and
Gerber is still recovering
from a knee injury, but both
players put on a stamina
exhibition which Karr finally
won 6-4, 5-7, 6-4. Karr used a
perfect drop volley to win the
final point.
"I think the Karr match
was the one that broke their
back," Cathrall said later.
After the Karr match the
fireworks began.
Lion number five Bruce
Issadore„ and his opponent
Andy F.rul got into it early
when Is . Sadore began com
plaining that Finn wasn't
giving him a chance to warm
up.
At the same time on the
next court, Lion number three
Miguel Maurtua was warm
ing up his competition,
Penn senior Jayson Schwartz.
Schwartz apparently got a
little upset by some noise in
Lukevics on hill
The West Virginia nine, which hasn't been tearing up the
diamond scene lately with a 7-10 record, stops in at Beaver
Field today for a 3 p.m. contest with the Lions (7-2).
While the Mountaineers' credentials don't match up to
Penn State's, pitcher Mitch Lukevics isn't taking his foe
lightly.
"They're no pushover," says Lukevics, a freshman who
had signed a grant-in-aid to play football for West Virginia
before opting for Penn State. "Even if they have an 0-10
record, you can't tell how good they are."
lukevics has come on strong after impressing coach Chuck
Medlar during the team's early spring trip to William and
first win over Ivy
the crowd and smacked a
hard forehand into the gallery
in an attempt to enforce some
silence.
A Penn assistant pin
pointed the trouble as an "un
nice comment" by a girl in
the crowd but later Schwartz
said "a few people were
laughing and it bothered me."
Maurtua took the first set 6-
3 and then Schwartz tried
intimidating him with a series
of out calls. "That was out
this time," Schwartz called at
various points, somewhat
disgusted by Maurtua's
knack for hitting the end lines
with his shots. Maurtua
dropped the second set 3-6 but
came back to take the final
set and the match 7-5.
"I didn't get upset,"
Maurtua said afterward.
"That's part of his strategy so
if I get mad, it's bad for me."
Meanwhile, Issadore,
warmed up by now, had just
finished up a comeback 3-6, 6-

through the match Penn
coach Al Molloy decided to
start calling foot faults on
Issadore so Shivar was
enlisted to keep an eye on the
player's footwork.
"Some of my guys were foot

and against Rutgers he fanned nine in posting a one hitter.
Hoping to dent the righthander's string of 12 innings
without yielding an earned run are Mountaineer infielders
Don Porter and Glenn Young. Porter is the top run producer
with 13 RBIs, one ahead of Young. Porter also leads the team
in batting with a .321 average. Young is second with .313.
The Lions are also doing a little hitting of their own and
boast a .321 team average.
Denny Dewitt has rapped out 13 hits in 27 at bats for a hefty
.481. Close behind Dewitt are Don Stine (.385) and Rick
Sherkel (.381).
Catcher George Coval has managed only four safeties in 21
trips to the plate, but three of them were home runs. —MS
