(AP) The 1976 U.S. Olympic hockey coach says he’s not surprised that a Russian hockey team took two out of three games from a team of National Hockey League all-stars last week. “Why? Because they are better,” said Bob Johnson, whose University of Wisconsin hockey squad has won two NCAA titles in the last five years. “Systems didn’t beat the NHL. It was fundamentals. They are better at the fundamentals of the game,” Johnson said of the Soviets. “They skate, they pass, they shoot. ” liiiiiS WAHA MM- £r T'"<V •• V, ,V ?*.>&"?&'*''«■ ?£ ' ' 'n V ” , V '%■■''>' ' V^'« v \ % *<£ % ' 'V* ’' present your Valentine's seal it jma can IHaVcan ' can opener,-You,can even buy aspeeiaUab^V?,' f ' 'for,s.2s,{while supplies..iast} : ,or own label.

LY AT THE 'Em STATE BOOKSTORE Injured swimmen face Bucknell By EDSOCHA Daily Collegian Sports Writer Injury is an important factor in any coach’s mind, but when five of 18 athletes are affected by it, injury is a major problem. Swimming Coach Lou Mac Neill will have to cope with that problem when the Penn State men’s swimming team takes on Bucknell 7:30 tonight at Bucknell. “If we were well, we’d cream them,” Mac Neill said. But that’s not the case this meet. Sophomore Mike Snyder, the team’s current record holder in the 200-yard butterfly won’t be swimming for the fourth consecutive week. Snyder is out with a swollen gland problem, and Mac Neill isn’t sure when Snyder will be available. 23-0 1,196 l»-3 1,190 17- 1,073 18- 983 17-4 901 20-3 895 20- 869 16- 795 21- 759 17- 749 18- 532 18- 507 19- 310 16-5 309 19-3 279 18-4 223 14- 210 18-4 197 18-5 185 15- 124 To add to Mac Neill’s woes, freestyler Old Dominion heads Top 20poll Reprinted from Philadelphia Inquirer Is Old Dominion the number one women’s basketball team in the land? At the moment it certainly is, according to 39 of the 40 voters on the board of women’s coaches that selects the weekly Top 20 rankings. (Coach Marianne Stanley cannot vote for her own team.) Can the Monarchs enter their region’s tournament undefeated? Perhaps. But they have to get past South Carolina next week on the road. The Gamecocks are led by former Old Dominion coach Pam Parsons, who recruited Nancy Lieberman and Inge Nissen for the Norfolk, Va. school. “You know South Carolina is going to be good and ready for us,” Stanley says. Will Old Dominion soar right into the national championship? Well, the jury is still out on that one, even though the 71- 56 win over preseason favorite Ten nessee was impressive Saturday night. The Monarchs, having conquered just about everything else, will now have to conquer their own reputation as a choke team in regionals. The team has just missed the last two years losing in the closing seconds of national qualifiers to Feb. 12-16 only ON CAMPUS McAllister bldg John Body has been plagued by a shoulder injury that has affected his stroke considerably. Body, however will be swimming against Bucknell. “If it weren’t for Bucknell, we wouldn’t use him,” Mac Neill said. “But we need him.” Lancy Duffy and Brian Muller will also be swimming in-tonight’s meet, but both of the swimmers will be hampered with injuries. Duffy has been affected by an ear problem, and Muller developed water on the knee at last Saturday’s match with Rutgers. The fifth injury, to Steve Rode, the team’s top breaststroker, has been one that Mac Neill has learned to adjust to. Rode hasn’t competed in a meet for Penn Slate this year, but will be back for next season. Tennessee and North Carolina State, respectively. Meanwhile, Cheyney State gained support as the “real thing” after beating Penn State, 53-52, Saturday at Univer sity Park. The Wolves moved up from eighth to fifth, making them the highest ranked women’s team from the Philadelphia area in the last two years. But another group of Philadelphians those players at ninth-ranked Rutgers will be out for revenge at Cheyney State tonight at 7:00. The Knights lost to the Wolves earlier in the year in a close contest in the semi-final round of the Queens Tournament in New York. Nevada-Las Vegas climbed back into the Top 10, replacing Wayland Baptist, which fell to its lowest ranking ever at 12th. Louisiana State lost two games and a coach last week when Jinks Coleman resigned.

"If we had the people, it would be a nothing meet.” MacNeill'sees an important match in the 1000-yard freestyle. He explained that Bucknell’s distance man, Gary Karpuk, swims about the same times as the Nittany Lions’Andy Cosgarea. “It’ll be the most exciting match we’ll see all year,” Mac Neill said about the 1,000. Bucknell, ranked 17th in the East, has never lost to Penn State. According to Mac Neill, for Bucknell to beat the 12th ranked Nittany Lions this would be an embarrassment. “If we were well they wouldn’t be in our class at all,” Mac Neill said. nersup in 1977 were replaced in the Top 20 by Northwestern and Southern California.
