'Throw records out for this game
'4'lty RON WENIG

:7 ' ' Every year Penn State schedules some tough games
and some breathers, but for the last two years the
supposedly easy Temple game has left the Lions
44 gasping for air.
Rumors that Temple has already added a notch to
s their loss column and are ready to accept a forfeit are
greatly misfounded.
Temple will be at Beaver Stadium on Saturday. And,
at about 1:25 p.m. or so the Nittany Lions will jog
triumphantly onto the field accompanied by the blaring
, 'l l , sounds of the Blue Band. The Temple players will follow
with little fanfare or respect, but the 60,000 fans had
better stay sober just in case they have a chance to
witness an unexpectedly good game.
The results of the last two year's games are enough to
eforeshadow a possibly hard conflict. Temple came only
one point away from grabbing huge upsets in those last
•i two meetings.
,1 1 Last year's affair was the ultimate in heartstoppers.
.4 The clock read 00:00 when Temple attempted a two
point conversion that failed and left them 31-30 losers.
I3oth teams forgot to bring their defenses to Veterans
l'Stadium as they combined for 850 yards total offense.
Chuck Fusina's touchdown pass to Tom Donovan with
I' :A nine minutes left made the score 31-17 and the lead
seemed insurmountable. However, Temple's quar
terback Terry Gregory engineered two touchdown
„drives in a last ditch effort at victory. ,
, 1 This year Penn State won't have to face Gregory.
Instead, Pat Carey will play, a quarterback they should
be very familiar with from the 1975 game.

In that game, Carey, then a sophomore, completed 18
of 31 for 218 yards. He has not been very impressive
since then.
This year he has only completed 39 of 89 for a total of
542 yards and he is splitting time with Brian Broomel,
more of a running type quarterback.
The unwise fan is quick to argue that the comparative
results against common opponents shows Penn State's
clear superiority.
Temple struggled to defeat Rutgers 24-14 while Penn
State breezed to an easy 45-7 triumph. Temple lost to
West Virginia 38-16; Penn State dominated them in a 49-
28 victory.
Unfortunately for those unwise fans, you can take all
the results, statistics, and records and throw them into
the circular file for Saturday's game. They don't mean
a thing when Temple plays Penn State.
The action in last week's Penn State-N.C. State game
may or may not be a cause for optimism on the part of
Temple.
The Lion defense was completely perforated by N.C.
State's running game. Penn State will discover on
Saturday that Temple has a pair of runners that could
be termed the hit and run backfield.
The tailback is Anthony Anderson, a 6-0, 190-pound
speedster with good strength for his size. Anderson
gained 803 yards last year and has 642 yards so far this
year to go along with eight touchdowns.
Fullback Mark Bright has poWered his way to a 6.1
yards per carry average although he has run only
sparingly.
If Temple can, establish a running game early, then
that will enable them to get into their sophisticated
passing game.
On the other hand, one reason of concern for Temple
will be Penn State's passing game. Fusina had a
tremendous game last week and his eyes have to light
up this week at the thought of passing against a sub-par
defense.
Attempting to hold down the fort on Temple's defense
will be middle guard Seth Demberg who has recorded 60
tackles thus far. Bob Salla has picked off five passes
from his right cornerback spot and is Temple's leading
punt returner.
Temple's defense has to be considered weaker this
year mainly because of the graduation of defensive
lineman Joe Klecko. Klecko, now a member of the New
York Jets, was primarily drafted on the merits of his
work in last years game against Penn State.
Yet, even with all their problems Coach Wayne
Hardin seems to have regrouped his team after the 76-0
fiasco to Pittsburgh. Since that game Temple has
recorded a 3-1-1 mark.
But, is Temple really in a class with Penn State?
Probably not, Still, most teams are not in a class with
Penn State.'
N.C. State was not in the same class with Penn State
but if last week's game was two minutes shorter Penn
State might have been playing in Atlantic City on New
Year's Eve.
The great thing 'about sports is anything can happen,
and, if you look at the results of the last two Penn State-
Temple meetings, it quite possibly could.
Lady spikers' season
c%ses,• Brennan back
By RICH TABIN
Daily Collegian Sports Writer
Now that Tuesday night's debacle
against Pitt is over with, it's time for
Penn State's women volleyballers to
forget the past and ready themselves
for the upcoming EAIAW Eastern
regionals.
Coach Tom Tait wants to get his
team "on an upward swing going into
regionals," and the Lady Lions can
improve on their 21-14 record starting
tonight at Indiana against the host
team and Duquesne. Penn State
concludes the regular season
Saturday against Slippery Rock and
East Stroudsburg at 1:00 in Rec Hall.
A big plus for the Lady Lions is
Cindy Brennan's return from a
broken foot suffered almost four
weeks ago at the Delaware Invita
tional.
"I'm very pleased to have her
back," Tait said of Brennan, who
started practicing yesterday.
"When she went out she was our rro.
2 setter, and had developed into an
excellent all-around ballplayer," he
said. "Her return allows us more
freedom in moving personnel around:
Now we'll have more mobility and
more options in using our bench
strength."
All cylinders must be working for
the Lady Lions to be successful at the

The Daily Collegian Thursday, November 10, 1977-1
16-team post-season tourney to be
held at Oswego State University of
New York on November 19-20.
Penn State begins the tournament
in a bracket with Edinboro, Cortland,
and Syracuse; seeded fourth, 12th,
and 16th, respectively.
The Eastern regional will be
divided into four brackets and the top
two teams from each go to the
championship finals. These
remaining eight clubs are then re
seeded and matched • against each
other: 1-7, 2-8, 3.6, and 4-5. The final
two victors travel to Denver for the
national championship tournament.
Tait believes his club's chances of
reaching the championship round are
"good".
"We've played most of the top
teams," he said. "We've beaten the
second seed for the regionals and last
year's EAIAW champ, Maryland,
earlier this year."
Our schedule has been tough
enough to prepare us for the brand of
ball we'll play up there," he added.
Except for the Pitt match, the Lady
Lions have been steadily coming
together as a team but must become
better mentally prepared, or "need to
get a little better philosophical. out
look," according to Tait.
But the coach is confident and
hopes his club jells at the right time.
