24—The Daily Collegian Friday, Sept. 5,1980 Rose to lead U.S. team in Israel By 808 GROVE Daily Collegian Sports Writer When the U.S. women’s volleyball team competes next July in the 1981 Maccabiah Games in Israel, its coach will be Lady Lion head coach Russell Rose. The Maccabiah Games, like the Olympics, are held every four years. The Games feature international amateur competition in nearly 20 dif ferent sports, including basketball, wrestling, track and field, and fencing. And next year, for. the first time, women’s vojleyball will be scheduled. It says quite a lot about Penn State’s program that Rose was chosen to coach the American team. Although only Jewish athletes are eligible to par ticipate in the Games, the coaches do not have to meet that requirement. “It (the position) is very prestigious, especially when you consider who could have been offered the job,” Rose said. “I’m very honored to have the op portunity to coach the team and go to Israel. And even more so because I’m Jewish.” Rose, who was chosen for the position by the U.S. Committee of Sports For Israel, is approaching the task con fidently. “I think the job requires competence, the ability to execute a national program and the ability to command respect,” he said. “I think people who have dealt with me will say I’ll be able to do that.” Rose is no stranger to international competition. After graduating from George Williams College in Downers Lady cagers By SHARON FINK Daily Collegian Sports Writer . Bob Foley is the newest addition to the women’s basketball staff after being named as an assistant coach this summer by new Lady Lion head coach Rene Portland. i Foley, who will also coordinate Penn State’s recruiting program, formerly served at the University of Colorado with Portland, who came to Penn State after former Lady Lion coach Pat' Meiser resigned at the end of last season. ; Foley, a native of Havertown, Pa., served as Portland’s assistant coach for two seasons and worked with her at several Cathy Rush basketball camps. At those camps he also worked with several Lady Lion players. “I’ve worked with about eight at camp,” Foley said, “and the players I’ve seen, I’ve liked.

After his stint in Puertoißico, he held an'assistant coaching position at his alma mater. During his two years there, the men’s team won a national cham pionship and the women’s team won the state championship both years, once finishing fifth nationally. , Rose went to Nebraska in 1977 to ob tain his master’s degree in physical education and to continue his college coaching career. At Nebraska he was one of two coaches for the women’s team which won two Big Eight championships and one regional championship. get new assistant coach worked with are very good. ’ ’ Foley’s main function, however, will be scouting out talent for the Lady Lions.' “He’s basically in charge of recruiting,” Portland said. “He sets the forms, keeps the files and works to find the top athletes in the country. He does the preliminary stuff most of the evaluating until we get to the top.” Portland said she offered the assistant coaching job to Foley because she is pleased with the work he’s done with her before and she feels comfortable working with him. “I very well could have come here and not brought him with me,” she said. “I did that to my assistant at St. Joseph’s. I coached there, and when I left to go to Colorado, I picked up a new assistant (Foley). I could have done that this time, too, but he does a very effective job. And we get along so well off the court, it merges on the court. It’s worked out In 1979, he was named the Lady Lions’ coach. Rose led the Lady Lions,to a 32-9 record and a fourth place finish in the Eastern regionals. Rose has done a fair amount of traveling so far in his coaching career— but those travels may not compare to the trips he’ll have to make in his new job. In addition to his expected heavy travel schedule, Rose said contacts throughout the country will be scouting talent year round in an effort to field the best possible team. The squad must be selected by May and will begin training shortly afterward in California. Rose said he will approach thegames differently than he would collegiate competition. “The competition is not based on winning or losing,” he said. “I approach it as a sharing proposition the athletes will be sharing their Jewish heritage. There will be no losers. “I probably will demand more from my collegiate athletes than I will from this team. We don’t have a lot of time to train. I’ll be more interested in getting them to play together as a team. It’s a team sport; success is determined by a team’s ability to play against its op ponent.” Although he realizes there’s more to the competition than just, winning, Rose’s desire for victory once the players take the floor will not be com promised. “I’m not going to go there saying we’ll be the best team,” he said. “On the other hand, I’m going to try to do everything I can to win.” really well.” Although Foley has been coaching basketball since 1973, he has only coached women for three years. His first year as a women’s coach was at Mitchell Preparatory School in Haverford, Pa., because “nobody else wanted to.” But in his two years with Portland, Foley saidhe’s learned a lot about the women’s game. “It’s incredible what I’ve learned from Rene, especially about women,” he said. “And I’ve seen that girls are much more emotional; they play either better or worse. But they’re more willing to learn, and it’s more fun. ” Foley said he thinks the job with the Lady Lions is a great opportunity, too. “I really liked it in Colorado,” he said, “but this is probably the best move I could have made. It’s a great op portunity for me to move up in my field. I’d like to be a head coach someday.” MEET IN (ground floor lounge) Bigler Brumbaugh Curtin Hastings Stone Warnock Waring Simmons MOElwain Wolf Heister Shulze Hibbs Cooper Cross Stephens See our complete line of school supplies.
