Golfers to
G. 'Washington
The Penn State golf team opens its dual match season
tomorrow against George Washington. The match will also
mark the Lion golfers' home opener as tee off time is set for 1
o'clock at the Blue Course.
The team will essentially be the same six that opened the
season last week at the Marshall Invitational plus freshman
Jeb Boyle. The top five scores will be counted in the final tally.
' Senior captain Tom Amendola led the Penn State con
tingent last week with a 229 for 54 holes. But Amendola was
disappointed overall with the team's play and its 11th place
finish.
"As a matter of fact, I thought we played pretty poorly,"

Pat McTarsney says her team
is "well prepared" for

`We've had more outdoor

sometimes do," McTarsney
said, adding that she thinks
the Lady Lions are in good
shape for this time of year.

Amendola said yesterday. "We'd been playing a lot better
before we went down to the tourney. I don't know what hap
pened to us down there."
Another problem for the golfeis since last week has been an
uncooperative Mother Nature. Cold weather, high winds and
snow are not exactly perfect conditions for golf and this has
hindered the team's practice this week.
"We haven't really been able to practice this week except
one day and it was tough then," Amendola said. "But we
should be able to beat them with the home course advantage."
Joining Amendola will be seniors Tim Wilson and Sherm,
Hostetter, junior Dick Conn, sophomore Gary Durbin and Jeff
- Heaton, and Boyle the freshman.
Amendola also indicated that George Washington would not
be the toughest opponent for the Lion golfers this year.
„ The Colonials are 2-2 with wins over Catholic University and
Galludet and losses to Richmond and VMI. They are led by
last year's MVP Armondo Herrera, a senior. Two freshmen,
Harris Livingstair and George Dukas, are among the
Colonials' top players.

LIONS PRIDE
105 SOUTH ALLEN STREET
By GEORGE WEIGEL
Collegian Sports Writer
There's dynasty _talk in Philly this
year. That idea might not be so far
fetched either if you take a look at the
Phillies' well-balanced lineup and their
ages.
, With sluggers Mike Schmidt and Greg
Luzinski just now coming into their
prime years, and youngsters like
Freddie Andrews and Randy Lerch
waiting to move in, the Phils could be
tough for many years.
This year they have to be rated
favorites once again, although they lost
Dave Cash to the Bank of Montreal and
Tom McNichol
Dick Allen to Charlie Finley's Wholesale
Player Outlet.
Only the Pirates have any kind of
realistic chance of knocking off the
defending champs, but they may liave
weakened themselves with some trades
Look for ntore long balls this year
from the Phils. The Bull (Luzinski) is
capable of jacking out more than the 21
homers he hit last year, and catcher Bob
Boone is more than a four•-homerun man
too. •
--Jim Loose
Talks of dynasty starting
Phillies seen as runaway
Also look for Fred Andrews, the Underwood may need another year or legitimate threat.

rookie, to get his chance this year. Ted
Sizemore has won the job at second base
for now and he's a good, consistent
ballplayer but Andrews is their man
for the future. Dave Johnson, the former
Baltimore Oriole, should also help.
Richie Hebner will probably provide
some good laughs at first base but he
can hit the ball. His bat wedged in
between Schmidt and Boone will really
solidify the offense but he's an. ad
venturesome fielder.
Pirate fans will tell you that Rich has a
knack of turning groundballs into
dramas, and sometimes even tragedies.
But pitching is going to be a main fac
tor that puts the Phillies a step above the
rest in the National League.
Returning veterans Steve Carlton (20-
7), Jim Lonborg (18-10), and Jim Kaat
(12-14) should be enough to anchor the
rotation, but watch for two youngsters,
righty Larry Christenson (13-8) and lefty
Tom Underwood (10-5), to really come
into their own this year.
Christenson has one of the liveliest
fastballs in the league when his back is
healthy.

two years of experience to perfect his
control.
Wayne Twitchell and rookie left
hander Randy Lerch are two other fine
pitchers who have great potential. ,
Add to those seven Gene Garber, Tug
McGraw and Ron Reed from the
bullpen, and the Phillies have the
deepest pitching staff in the league.
As far as weaknesses go, the Phils
have only a few' minor flaws. The
defense is weak in right field and at first
base and non-existent in left field.
But with Larry Bowa at shortstop and
Garry Maddox (.330) in center, those
deficiencies are balanced out.
Speaking of Maddox, he'll be leading
off this year. Nobody wanted the lob, but
the fleet-footed Maddox is the best
choice • if. he_ keeps his free-swinging
style and doesn't try to hit like a leadoff
man is "supposed to." .
On paper, the Phils look almost un
beatable. They have a. solid hitting at
tack and their pitching is first class. The
clincher is their depth, and for that
reason, they should be able to take the
division with Pittsburgh •the only
