B—The Daily Collegian Monday, Oct. 15,1979 Men, women take top cross country honors By MIKE POORMAN Daily Collegian Sports Writer Penn State refused to fill the gracious host role Saturday as both the men’s and women’s cross country teams won team and individual honors in the Penn State Open at the Blue golf course. Alan Scharsu, battling high winds and a tough field, won the men’s 10,000-meter race in 30:56 to lead the Lions to a low point total of 24, easily defeating second place Washington Sports Club with 84. Lion Larry Mangan finished just seven seconds behind Scharsu to grab third place behind Greater Rochester Track Club’s Craig Holm. In the women’s 5,d00-meter race it was the Lady Lions all the way, as Heather Carmichael led a charge of nine Penn State runners in the top 12 with a winning time of 18:15. Patty Murnane followed closely the entire route and Netwomeri end dual meet season undefeated By GLENN KAUP Daily Collegian Sports Writer A poor week of practice affected the women’s tennis team this weekend, but it was not enough for the University of Pennsylvania to topple the Lady Lions from its second consecutive undefeated fall season. The women’s tennis team won this weekend’s meet 7-2, losing only the fifth- and sixth-seeded singles matches. “Overall, it looked like the team had a bad week of practice,” women’s tennis coach Candy Royer said. “The players that had been practicing just doubles for the Eastern Collegiate Tournament had Phi Mu Proudly Announces their 1979 Fair Pledge Class S/len Emald <2)<detodt feanne 9See PBicb&nietn BStuefoc/i d€eat/ie>i S/iie ( Biti/uzm PTuicif.

Cherie Dow was scheduled to play Anna Maria Kleis, Penn’s No. 1 player and ranked the No. 1 singles player in Puerto Rico, but Kleis never made it back from a sectional tournament in California. Dow defeated Allison Accurso in the top-seeded spot in straight matches 6-0, 6-0. Lady Lion Carol Daniels played in the second-seeded position in the match and defeated Lisa Silversten, 6-1,6-2. Anne Beasley, however, had some problems with Maura Williams. Beasley won the first set 6-3, but lost the second Sunday from 10:30 Crepes finished just six seconds later. Lady Lion Peg Cleary posted third in 18:39 to help pace the women to a 20-51 victory over runner-up Nittany Valley Track Club. The gusting 20 mile-per-hour winds affected race strategy, Scharsu said. “Being light is a big disadvantage in windy weather,” the Ohio sophomore said. “I only have 112 pounds of running force. That’s why I hung back and didn’t make my move until late. I can’t run against the wind very well. “With a good team behind you, you can throw caution to the wind. Having the team up there made my move a little easier. It gives you a chance to gamble.” Also gambling was Mangan, who was betting on his miler’s kick to move him up from eighth to first-place over the final yards “At the six mile mark when I saw where the second-place runner was I knew I had a good shot at set 7-6 by dropping the tiebreaker 5-4. Beasley came back ih the third set 6-2 to take the match. Captain Gail Ramsay did not play singles this weekend because of a strained leg muscle. Valentina Garcia took Ramsay’s fourth-seed and defeated Cathy Sch webel in straight sets 7-5,6-1. “Valentina had a brilliant per formance,” Royer said. “She was down 0-5 in the first set and came back to win the match.” Lady Lion Sue Whiteside moved up to the fifth spot and lost to Karen Nyman 6- /3,6-2. . —•- i^‘NS—CORDS^Bi B S—DANCEWEAR-—SHIRTS — SWEATERS —OUTWEAR , _ _ J it,” the 4:01 miler said. “With 150 go, I started kicking with the intent of getting second or third and maybe even Alan.” Freshman Jeff Adkins .was in contact with the leaders the entire race and finished a strong eighth. Veterans Tom Rapp and John Ziegler rounded out the winning team’s top five as only 44 seconds separated Scharsu and Ziegler. The women’s race featured some spirited front running as well. “At the beginning we went out really hard,” Murnane said. “We went through the mile (which was uphill and into the wind) in 5:37.” “The fast start was just a chance to get to use some different strategy,” Carmichael said. ' Top Lady Lion Kathy Mills did not run. She twisted her ankle during the warm-up, but the injury does not appear to be serious. “Sue lost the match because she has not played enough singles this week because she and Gail were practicing for the doubles ‘ competition last week,” Royer, said. “She had a bad week of doubles practice.” Since Ramsay was taken out of the lineup at the last minute, Carole Zajac played in the sixth-seeded position.Zajac lost to Sue Wills, 6-1,6-4. “Carole was not that match-tough,” Royer said. “I didn’t make the decision until that morning and it was hard for Carole to get tough for the match that quick.”.

STATE COLUFGE P<- Stamatis ties mark; Lions split ByWILLPAKUTKA Daily Collegian Sports Writer Jim Stamatis pulled his turtleneck sweater snug under his chin as he strode up and down Jeffery Field yesterday afternoon. . They told him it was to be a big event, but that ties were optional. So, Stamatis set out after the all-time school scoring title dressed casually, butneat. A goal and an assist enabled Stamatis to tie Chris Bahr’s record of 67 points yesterday. But don’t bet on his. dress being any more formal when he sets put to break the record in the Lion’s next game. Even though people have been trying to convince Stamatis that breaking the record will be one of the greatest achievements of his soccer career, he just can’t find it any more important than a Lion win something that happened yesterday, 4-1, against LaSalle, but never oc curred during Friday night’s 1-0 upset loss to Maryland. “I’m anxious to get it (the record) just because everybody else is anxious for me to get it,” Stamatis said. “It’s nice to be remembered but we’ve got to worry about winning games first.” No Lion,, let alone Stamatis; was able to pick up a point Friday night ; against Maryland, so Stamatis knew he needed three points yesterday against LaSalle to break the reocrd during the homestand. . His first point came just; 52 seconds into the game when he centered a pass to Duncan MaPEwan who put home the first Lion goal of the day. Stamatis’ second point came on an identical play at 37:10, only this time Stamatis’ pass hit a LaSalle defender and trickled in (Stamatis got credit for the goal). ' Stamatis missed his chance to break the record in the second half not by bad shooting or a fabulous LaSalle defense, but by just one minute. “I thought it was ironic,” Penn State coach Walt Bahr said. “We just took Jimmy out, and less than a minute later we get a penalty kick, which at any other time, would have been Stamatis’.” Stamatis slid into his warm-up outfit as Dan Canter put in that penalty kick. Stamatis shook his hand and couldn’t help but smile. Earlier, a joint effort by Malik Kermouche and Lou Karbiener had giyen the Lions a solid lead. Ker mouche was awarded the goal which both players apparently kicked at the same time. , The whole thing was such a con trast to Friday night’s fiasco that one had to laugh at the irony. “That was just one of those games,” Stamatis said yesterday. “We could still be playing right now and the score would be 0-o;” ■ Maryland won Friday night even though the Terps took no shots that went near the goal. The lone score of the game came when the Terps’ Ron McKeever centered a ball which deflected off a Penn State defender and slid intd the Lions’net.

Northeast trip reaps stickgais 2 victories By JUSTIN CATANOSO Daily Collegian Sports Writer STORRS, CONN The women’s field hockey team beat the odds this weekend. Despite being far from home, traveling long hours on a bus and playing on fields better suited for cow pastures, it still managed a clean sweep of two Nor theastern opponents.' On Saturday, the third-ranked Lady Lions (9-1) thrashed Rutgers 6-2 and yesterday, in their biggest game to date, dominated fourth-ranked Conneticut (11- 2), winning 2-1. “I’m extremely pleased with the team’s play this weekend,” Penn State coach Gillian Rattray said, “especially since we came on the road for two games and played under such grueling con ditions.” Yesterday's game with Connecticut was played on a badly mottled soccer field where the north goals and shooting circle were reduced to a mud hole. This didn’t seem to bother Lady Lion wing Candy Finn as she plodded through the muck and fired two shots past Htisky goalie Diane Hughes in the first eight minutes of play. In Connecticut’s first 11 games, Hughes saw just four shots get past her. “Candy plays her best against the toughest ■ competition,” Rattray said. “When she gets determined, it’s very hard to stop her,” Showing extraordinary determination was the Lady Lion defense. Led by center back Sally Scheller, it held the Huskies’ usually agressive offense to just 13 shots, only three of which came in the first half. “The defense played extremely well,” Rattray said. “They dominated the The Daily Collegian Monday, Oct. 15,1979—9 midfield play and were always in position in the circle." Connecticut’s only goal came off a disputed penalty stroke by its high scorer Lauren Suchs midway through the second half. Lady Lion back Nancy Deal and sweeper Wendy Emery both made vital clearing passes in the closing minutes of the game to keep the Huskies from tying the score. Goalie Jeannie Fissinger had six saves to preserve the win. On Saturday, the Lady Lions’ game with Rutgers (3-2-2) was Switched from a swamp in New Brunswick, N.J., to a marsh in Woodbridge. Because the Knights’ field was worthy of fish life, the teams met at Middlesex Community College on a field only slightly drier. In a soggy, slow moving contest, Penn State leaped to an early 2-0 lead when wing Deb Malone took a pass from Scheller and nudged a shot past Knight goalie Joan Gilbert. Two minutes later,, link Judy Mahaffey followed up her own shot for the second tally. Rutgers, however, sloshed right back behind goals by Mickey Totman and Regina Alonza to tie the score and grab the momentum. Rattray, having started four fresh men, decided that with Rutgers surging and the field in poor condition, more player experience was needed. The players, forwards Jan Snyder and Jill Van Bodegom-Smith and back Deal, helped break up the long defensive standoff and regained control of the game for the Lady Lions. Van Bodegom-Smith hit for two goals midway through the second half to break the tie and sink Rutgers’ confidence.
