6—The Daily Collegian Wednesday, Dec.lo. 1980 Huskers By WILL PAKUTKA Daily Collegian Sports Writer You say the Penn State basketball team, after three straight wins, was bound to lose one? No it wasn't. You say you expected the Lions to go against a better team pretty soon and get blown out like they did last night in Nebraska, 75-50? You expected wrong. • Penn State didn't go against a better team last night. It went against a team that had been 0-3. The Lions weren't due to lose. They were due for their fourth straight win: But Penn State did lose, and big. And if you want to find whose fault it was, point a finger at the door of the team bus when it arrives today and keep that finger up there until everybody comes out. "Yea," Lion coach Dick Harter said, "we certainly could see this coming the way we approached this game, the way we traveled across the country, the way we had it organized. "I'm blaming the coaches and the players for this one. We stepped our way into it and we got just what we deserved." That means the Lions deserved a beating on the boards, because that's what they got. The smaller Nebraska team (the center is only 6-foot-7 and he sat out a lot of the game in foul trouble) outrebounded Penn State 31-21. Penn State was also outshot from the field, if only by a small percentage. But more importantly; the Lions were outscored from the foul line, 33-8. Thirty-three to eight. Foul shots may have made up for the difference in scoring, but they were even a bigger factOr than that.

Center Frank Brickowski had three personal fouls two offensive only 4:06 into the first half and had to sit. Brickowski finished with six points in 14 minutes of playing time before fouling out with five-and-a-half minutes to go in the game. The only double-figures scorer for the Lions Was Scott Wolz with 12. "We thought it was a very poor perfor mance not only in our execution, but in our effort," Harter said. "It was certain ly the worst we've had in a couple of years. "I don't know the reason for it. We just didn't come ready to play and we met a team that was hungry to get started and they enjoyed themselves at our expense." Penn State was still in the game with five-and-a-half minutes to go. The Lions were down by eight, 52-44, but Nebraska then scored 16 straight, including 14 from' the foul line to make the score 68-44. When you're behind 68-44 with two minutes to go, you don't usually come back. And for Penn State last night, even another 43 minutes probably wouldn't have helped.

Penn State's fast break has been a key factor in all its victories thus far this season, and last night was no ex ception. The Lady Lions ran up over 90 points on the scoreboard for the third time this season and ran away with their fourth victory in five games, a 94-54 trouncing of Lock Haven. "My primary goal this year has been to get the team running," Portland said. "And our fast break looked great at times (last night)." As Portland was quick to point out, sophomore Corinne Gulag was the main cog in the Lady Lions' running game. Gulas hit six of six from both the floor and the foul line last night to pace all Penn State scorers with 18 points. Gulas is now averaging 13 points a game. The Lady Lions didn't exactly breeze to the victory. Portland said her team made its share of mistakes in the first half, whiCh she described as a "game of follies." Despite those difficulties, Penn State jumped out to a 46-29 halftime lead. The Lady Lions tallied 48 more points in the second half while holding HUB Main Lounge RO2B " ,0 YA, Just a $7 deposit will reserve your yearbook stop by 206 HUB TODAY the Lady Eagles to 25. Portland said the team's goal was to give up 50 points or less, a mark the Lady Lions came within four points of achieving. Penn State is now giving up an average of 66.6 points per game, a figure Portland said the team can im prove on. "I know they can do, better," she said. "I'm a defensive coach and I'm starting to stress defense." Portland can afford • to stress defense when her team is scoring an average of 89.8 points per game. Freshman Cindy Davies, who is averaging 13.4 points a game, sup ported Penn State's winning effort last night with 15 points, and senior Mary Donovan added 12. Sophomore Louise Leimkuhler hit double figures for the third time in the last four games, chipping in 11 points. Sophomore Carol Walderman, Penn State's leading scorer in two of its previous four games, notched eight points last night. She remains the Lady Lions' leading scorer, averaging 16 points per game. Other Penn State scorers included freshman Brenda Larrimer (two), sophomores Cheryl Ellison (six) and Mary Achramovitch (five) and juniors Deb Christman (eight) and Maryanne Martin (five).

Lions' second 40-point road win over Lock Haven in two seasons. Last year, Penn State defeated the Lady Eagles 82-42 at Thomas Fieldhouse. That may have been a factor in Penn State's sluggish first-half play. "It's awful tough to get them up," Portland said. "They remember those other games." Lock Haven is not the only team to get trampled on by the Lady Lions this season. Penn State defeated Howard University by 38 points in its season opener and trounced Fairleigh Dickinson by 40 last Friday. Never theless, Portland doesn't mind those runaway victories. "That's what we're trying to do get this team to be more consistent," she said. "This team really needs a lot of confidence."
