    Consistency bowlers' key

By NEIL RUDEL
Collegian Sports Writer
Penn State’s men and women bowling
Steams have been rolling quite well lately, but
Don Ferrell says his teams will need
:<«n extra-consistent effort to beat visiting
“ teams from American University at the Rec
f .-Hall lanes tomorrow.
•J “I’m looking for a very competitive
“match,” Ferrell said. “American won’t come
\ at us trying to bowl the big game but rather,
•' the consistent one, “They bowl consistently
~ because their coach, Joe Zok, is consistent.”
Zok, who helped initiate the. bowling
‘ program at American, knows a tremendous
-amount about the game and can help his
, team quickly on the spot, Ferrell said. “I
• have a lot of respect for him,” he asserted.
The Penn State men’s team, coming off a
' big win Tuesday at Fredonia, owns an un
blemished 7-0 mark. Ferrell will rely on
‘ alleymen Don Baker, Ted Long, Barry
-Kubalba, Terry Wenz, Scott Goldbach and
DeNoi to keep that record intact. -
The Penn State Lady Lion rollers, with a
'record of 5-2, are also coming off a big win at
Fredonia. The ever-steady Karen Hosterman

However, Hosterman failed to make the cut
in Wednesday’s rolloff for Saturday’s match
by three pins.
Lady Lion starters include Gina Attanucci,
Tina Clark, Cindi McCool, Peggy Addleman,
Barb Miller, and Roxanne Selach.
“We’ve been improving since the start of
the season,” Ferrell said. “Our newcomers
are coming along quite well; I had three new
people at Fredonia and we didn’t lose a bit of
strength.”
Ferrell said his main concern at this stage
of the season is that his team continues to
maintain the high level of concentration that
they will need in the sectional rolloffs April 1-
3 at an undetermined site.
Also, he said, a lack of competition
problem will confront the clubs during term
break and in March when no matches are
scheduled. “You couldn’t ask for a better
bunch of bowlers, however, their cooperation
is super,” he said.
Cooperation and consistency, Don Ferrell
is looking for both tomorrow in order for his
units to roll into the Penn State Invitational
next Saturday at the top of their games.
Match time tomorrow is 1 p.m.

Coach Beth Cramer’s alma
mater, Madison, The Dutch
esses are relatively new on
the fencing scene and should
become state’s seventh
victim of the season.
Jersey City, coached by
former Olympian Emily
Grompone, have faired well
so far this season. But, coach
Cramer feels that Jersey will
not present much of a threat.
“Jersey City is ag
gressive,” Cramer said.
“They’re strong but not as
strong as we are. They’ve
done very well against New
Jersey competition, but we’ll
beat them.”
William Paterson will
present more of a challenge
for two reasons.
organizes
match
three foes
First, Paterson coach Ray
Miller teams are “always
strong,” said Cramer, “even
if he doesn’t have the talent.”
And second, this year’s
Paterson team will be led by
journeywoman Ilona
Maskal. The 29-year-old (plus
or minus 50 years) has been
fencjng at the college level for
who knows how long (some
estimates have her fencing at
the college level since WWI).
She’s done stints at Juliard
College, Jersey City, and who
knows what other colleges.
Wherever a scholarship is
offered, Maskal is eager to
bring her fencing skills to that
school.
“Ilona (Maskal) is a very
accomplished fencer,”
Cramer said. “She’s fenced
for a long time. She has more
strip presence than most
others. By that I mean she’s
more mature than most and
can force those with less
experience to commit
mistakes.”
Penn State’s Smith added,
"I’ve fenced her before. She’s
not unbeatable by a long shot.
She’ll be good competition.”

Seek revenge against Randolph
Cagegals face Pittsburgh
By DARLENE HROBAK
Collegian Sports Writer
The Pitt Pantherettes have
unleashed a new, potent
weapon on opposing
basketball teams this season.
She comes in a 6-3 package
and carries the tender status
of freshman. But don’t let that
fool you. About all it means is
that she’ll be around for a
while.
She can jump and pull down
enough loose balls to make
her one of the top rebounders
in the East. She can also hit
the basket with an accuracy
which has given her an
•average of about 22 points per
game.
Her name is Wanda Ran
dolph and she plays center
(what else?) for the 16-4 Pitt
Pantherettes. Anyone of the
Lady Lions could have sup
plied that name to the Pan
therette in question within a
matter of seconds. They’ve
seen her before, and they’re
not likely to forget the name,
or the girl.
The last meeting between
Pitt and Penn State on
December 5, which deter
mined the champion of the
Pitt Invitational Tournament,
featured Randolph scoring 23
points and grabbing 21
rebounds to pace her team to
a 71-66 victory.

Trackgals
Penn State’s trackwomen will leave
Pennsylvania this weekend. Some will run to
another state, a few will leave the country.
Coach Chris Brooks will take the majority
of her charges to the Delaware Invitational,
in Newark, Del., to do track and field battle
with some of the best eastern teams. Four of
the team’s heavyweights will not make that
trip however, journeying instead to Mon
treal, Canada, where they will compete in the
La Presse International Athletic Meet.
Patti Knighton, Hilary Noden, Kathy Mills
and Chris Bankes will make the tree to our
neighbor to the north for competition against
some of the top international runners.
Knighton is siated to go in the 50-meter
dash and the 50-meter hurdles, while Noden,
Mills and Bankes will run in the 1500-meter
event. The competition will take place in the
Velodrome, the building where bicycle

six. The Rock left University
Park with numerous satisfied
smiles and a 75-58 score.
Randolph put 24 points
through the hoop in the
Slippery Rock-Pitt game
and enabled her team to
secuf e a 69-66 triumph.
At 5:45 Saturday afternoon,
the Lady Lions will again do
battle with the Pantherettes
in the front end of a men
women doubleheader at the
Pitt Fieldhouse.
“We’re going to have to
play a little tighter defense
than we did last time,” Lady
Lion coach Pat Meiser said. It
wouldn’t be such a bad idea to
hold onto the basketball
either.
In their last meeting with
Pitt, and subsequent games
with other teams, turnovers
have, been a big problem for
the Lady Lions. A total of 40
turnovers marred the record
book in that 71-66 early-season
loss to the Pantherettes.
Pitt has added at least one
new dimension to its game
since that last encounter. So
keeping from turning the ball
over to enemy hands might be
a necessity.
Kim Raymond, a 5-11
forward, is back on the
basketball court. She has
been out with a knee injury
for most of the season, and
compliments Randolph well
on playing the floor. Mrs.
Meiser referred to her as an
“outstanding player.”

Pitt are 5-7’ guard Mimi
Senkowski, 5-3 Dana Elder
and 5-5 freshman Kathy
Paczkowski (who scored
more than 1,000 points in high
school last year).
The Lady Lions’ record has
dropped to 9-4 as a result of
recent losses to Slippery
Rock, 75-58, and East
Stroudsburg, 74-73. Hallie
Bunk, who has turned in two
consecutive 27 point per
formances has regained her
starting job from Betty
McGuire at the forward
position.
The Lady Lions have been
confronted with a triangle and
two defense in their two most
recent losses, and coach
Meiser expects to see it again.
“The triangle and two was
one of the primary defenses
Pitt used two years ago,” she
said. “And they are under the
same coach.”
The Lady Lions have been
working on that defense in
practice, and Pat Meiser
thinks that this time they may
be able to contend with it.
She reports the team’s
attitude and her attitude to be
positive. “We have played
there (at the fieldhouse)
before and won down there
before,” Meiser said.
It remains to be seen,
though, whether the Lady
Lions can pull out a victory in
the presence of that new
“attack mechanism,” Wanda
Randolph.
races were held during the Montreal Olympic
games in 1976.
While that foursome is turning heads in the
land of mounties and maple leafs, the rest of
the team should be giving their competition
something to watch stateside.
Lea Ventura, a sophomore from South
Dartmouth, Mass., has been very impressive
in recent weeks, and Brooks looks for good
things from her Sunday.
“Lea's times have been dropping and she’s
been training hard,” Brooks said. “I’d like to
get her time down under :58 for the 440. I
think she can doit.”
Other women Brooks looks for strong
performances from are high jumper Vicki
Cessen, who placed second at last weekend’s
Pitt Invitational, and Barb Hess, who sur
prised Brooks with a throw of 39 feet, 10 in
ches at the Pitt meet.
