Softball season to end, again
By SHARON FINK
Daily Collegian Sports Write►
AcCording to the regular season
schedule, last Wednesday's
doubleheader with Brockport should
have made the team's 1979 season
history. The Lady Lions were passed
up . when the Eastern regional
satellite tournament bids were
handed out last week, leaving them
out of post-season competition and
with time for thinking about what
might have been. It should be time to
start planning for that ever-present
next year. Right?
Well, not exactly. It seems weather
put a crimp in the Lady Lions' early
season plans by raining out two
scheduled doubleheaders with New
York schools Cortland and Ithaca

right after their season opener with
West Chester.
This forced Penn State coach Pat
McTarsney to cancel the Ithaca game
completely because the two teams
could not find a mutually compatable
time to make it up. She also had to re
schedule the two games with Cor
tland for today at 1:00 at Lady Lion
Field six days after the regular
season was supposed to end.
So with the '79 season over with, for
all practical purposes, will Cortland
be an anti-climax for the Lady Lions?
"I don't think so," McTarsney said.
"It's our last game of the season and
our last home game. And we have six
seniors on our squad (Peggy Byrne,
Diane Dixon, Patti Fogarty, Kathy
Fitzgerald, Donna Hunsicker and
Janice Presel) so I'm anticipating a
good game,"
She also said not being selected for
the regional satellite tournament
shouldn't affect her team's per
formance.
"We played at Brockport after the
(regional) selections and got really
blown out in the first game. But we
came back and took the second one,
so I'm really looking forward to
tomorrow (today)."
Cortland also seems to be another
in a long line of mystery teams the
Lady Lions have played this year.
McTarsney said she knows little
about the New York school, only that
it usually has "good athletes and is
always competitive."
"They changed coaches this year,

and I understandtheir record is not as
good , this year as it has been in the
past," she said. "But the only thing
that really bothers me is the warm
days we've been having."
,McTarsney said the recent spell of
warm weather will be a rather new
playing condition for the Lady Lions
this' year and could pose some
problems.
"The first days in the heat are the
hardest," she said. "We have to keep
from getting sluggish and take a few
measures to protect ourselves from
it. We should try to keep out of the sun
all day and just keep hustling. Other
things we'll talk about in practice this
afternoon (yesterday afternoon). We
just have to stay looking sharp."
