"Any team that enters a season relying_on

Putting together this year's squad in
prepaption for the season opener at
Villanova on Sept. 29, Groves had 50 runners
show up for last week's practices. Only 12
athletes will be permitted to compete each
week but Groves mentioned, "Hopefully,
they won't be the same 12 guys each week."

Lettermen returning from last season's 4-
0 team are co-captains Charlie Maguire and
Bob Hillman, Gary Gittings; George
Christopher, Ken Wilson 'and ROn Secord.
Hillman won't see much action in the
season's early going due to a student
teaching commitment, but was still chosen
as a co-captain because, Groves said, "He
was a good man for the job and the guys
voted him in."
All the runners have been attending daily
workouts in accordance with a program
Groves designs for each individual athlete.
The emphasis in. cross country, the Lion
mentor said, is on development and not
experience.
"Effort, time and guidance are
important," Groves continued, "and so is
strength and muscular development in the
upper body. Strength in the lower body
comes, of course, through running."
Women's field hockey
Experienced team returns
There won't be too many new faces on the
women's field hockey team this year. Field
hockey coach Tonya Toole can count on six
returning varsity starters to offer opponents
an experienced team.
The team features returning right wing
Anne Findlay and inner right Julie Soriero.
Findlay played her way to the:: National
Field Hockey Tournament last year, one of
two' Penn Staters to make the national
squad. Five were selected as far as the
Mideast team. Sorierio fired in 15 goals last
year to become the leading returning
scorer.
Lady, golfers lack depth
If all the matches on the women golfers'
fall slate called for two:player teams, as
does the Eastern regional championships,
coach Annette Thompson would probably be
anticipating an outstanding autumn.
HoWeyer, Thompson has to come up with
at least four for the remainder of the small
autumn schedule, and this may be a
problem. Her number one player, Andrea
Dutcher, is out student teaching this term
and won't be back on the links 'til spring,
leaving Thompson with only two proven
players.
These two, Marcia Gullo of State College
and Julie Smith of Syracuse, N.Y., were
important factors in last year's 7-1 record,
and they will carry the Lady Lions through
the fall. "They've-both been playing' all
summer, and playing well_ I think we'll give
a real good showing in the Easterns," said
Thompson.

He said the purpose of weight lifting to
strengthen the upper body is primarily to
increase circulation.
Concerning this year's competition,
Groves indicated he will begin checking out
rosters and previews in a few days.
"You give all your opponents the benefit
of = the doubt until the season gets
underway," he cautioned.
The conservative Groves did mention a
meet with Georgetown and William & - Mary
as a good one. "Both schools are distance
oriented and the meet should be very
interesting," he said.
Groves said he will give all 50 athletes out
for the team a good look. "Some will not
make the team, and will be club runners,"
Groves said, "but this year's club athletes
may be next year's varsity athletes."
Dave Dunlop
Other returning starters include left wing
Lyndell Shindler left halfback Linda
McConnell, right halfback Barb Doran, and
left fullback Gwen Kranzley. In addition
Toole will have her pick of 22 women
returning from a week of hockey, camp.
The team will be out to better last year's
5-3-1 record. They will face a tough card
against Cortland, Lock Haven, West
Chester, and Buckell.
Toole will get her firSt look at the team in
a • scrimmage against Wilson College on
September 22.
One other returnee is Mary Ellen Cain,
whom Thompson labels as a hard worker.
Thompson has two new prospects this fall
in freshman Linda Hook, from State
College, and Sophomore Janet Ifert of
Punxsutawney, Pa. Hook had a 13 handicap
in high school.
The gals' fall schedule includes a two-way
_ match with Brockport and Madison College
here on the White Course, and a match at
Cortland, N.Y., in addition to the Easterns,
which will be held at Seabury, Mass.
"Brockport will probably ,be the
toughest," remarked Thompson. `They've
got three or four girls returning with three
years experience. Madison College doesn't
have the depth. Cortland, because it is a
phys. ed. school, could be good! or bad
overnight. I'm confident concerning the
Easterns," she added.
