B—The Daily Collegian Friday, Dec. 12, 11)80 Lady swimmers to hostVillanova The women's swimming team will get a chance to see whether it can turn in a performance like the men's team did Wednesday , night against Villanova when the Lady Lions battle the Wildcats at 1 p.m. tomorrow in McCoy Natatorium. Penn State coach Ellen Perry said she is hoping for the same type of victory the Lions recorded, but tomorrow's meet has been modified to include mostly sprints. "In a sprint meet, everybody is going to have to do very, very well," Perry said. "It will come down to the best turns, the best starts and the best finishes. It might go down to the last relay." If the Wildcats have their way, they could spoil the Lady Lions' bid to win Swimmers look past St. Bonaventure For the first time this season, the men's swimming team will 400-yard medley relay. The medley relay gives you an indica take to the road as it faces St. Bonaventilre at 2 p.m. tion of what the rest of the team is like," tomorrow But once again the meet will be of little significance because the Lions have their eyes set on the Eastern championships. "It will probably be about the same kind of meet (as Villanova )," said freestyler Ed Bahan, who will again be swimming in the 200-yard freestyle in order to gain some ex perience for Easterns. He said part of the reason for the changeover to the 200 was due to the Lions' strengthinthe 50-'and 100-yard freestyles. Penn State coach Lou Mac Neill said the Bonnies are weak in the diving events and don't have any outstanding sprinters and therefore he doesn't expect the Lions to have too many problems. "They're (the Bonnies) all hopped up," Mac Neill said. "They'll be competitive, but I think Villanova (who lost to the Lions, 7340, on Wednesday night) could beat them.

Atherton St. (At University Drive) their second meet of the young season. Villanova, which placed third in Division II of the National Collegiate Athletic Association last year, has all but one swimmer back fromits relay teams. But that hasn't diminished Lady Lion freshman Cindy Post's optimism for the meet with Villanova, which also has a dual meet winning streak of 21 on the line. "We have quite a few strongswim mers," Post said, "and I think we'll win. We've been working hard." The Wildcats' firepower comes from Jenny Franks (100- and 200-yard in dividual medley), Rita Edge (100- and 200-yard freestyle) and Beth Metzger, a freshman who last year qualified for the Olympic trials in the 100-meter backstroke. .ated by ztral Pennsylvania raftsinen at ~1~ lib~N ~I NOW IN THE LOFT AREA OF !MG 01.

He holds Penn State records in both the 50 and 100. "I'm pleased, but I'm not•satisfied," Bahan said. "I haven't reached any of my goals yet." Bahan said Mac Neill knows what it's like to have an average program like St. Bonaventure has. He said his coach doesn't like to run up scores and will probably use a lot of second string swimmers against the Bonnies. After tomorrow's meet, Lion divers Craig Brown, Dale Dmitrzak and Mike Cecatiello will be headed for the Hershey Christmas Invitational on Sunday. The meet will feature age-• group competition, and will involve several high school divers from Maryland and Philadelphia schools in addition to college divers from Pittsburgh and Clarion State. Ttadiwar "They're probably a lot stronger than they were last year," Perry ,said, "especially with the addition of Metzger, I'm expecting that everybody is going to go pretty hard. But obviously a home crowd to cheer us on would be much appreciated." In light of the Wildcats' weakness in the diving events, Lady Lion diver Patti Jones said she will experiment with two new dives on the low board. After tomor row's meet, she and teammate Pam Hiester will travel to the Hershey Christmas Invitational, where Penn State diving coach Bob Goldberg said it will be a good opportunity for the divers to practice for the big meets, later in the season.

Home ice has been in Mechanicsburg, a little more than 100 miles from here, while practices have taken place in the coal mining regions of Johnstown and Wilkes-Barre. And with two important away games this weekend, the Lions once again hit the road to Johnstown on Wednesday night to sharpen their skills. Penn State faces-off at 3:45 tomorrow 'afternoon in Upsala and then plays Ramapos at 7 p.m. Sunday. After practice Wednesday night, Lion goalie Jim Pollock and coach Clayton John both breathed a sigh of relief, since they both know that only one more practice separates them from being able to practice and play in the new rink. "For any team to be fully effec tive," Pollock said, "a team must practice more than once a week. You know what it was like last year, we were always on the road and we prac ticed on an undersized outside rink. It was tough. "But the new rink is what everyone on this team is looking forward to. I hope people come out and watch us. I think they will like our brand of hockey." • "It seems like we've been on the road forever," John said. "Getting in to the new rink will be super and we won't have any more traveling to do for awhile, because we have a lot of home games the second half of the year. People don't realize that our practices tie up about eight hours when you include time spent on the road." But perhaps more important to the team than the opening of the rink is the importance of the games this weekend against National Collegiate Athletic Association competition. Ice hockey at Penn State is only a Club sport but has a schedule consisting of Division II and 111 schools. "Both of thesb games are going to be a good test for us and it is impor tant that we win," John said. "Both teams are formidable opponents and I am relying heavily on our defense to put pressure on them and control the tempo of the game. "It's also important because right now, we are dictating our home atten dance. If we win these two, games then we should draw well, but if we lose it could be an altogether different story. We want to pack the new rink, so. . ." Defenseman Joe Battista agreed that it was a must-win situation. "We know they're gonna be in good condition because they are varsity teams and they have a big jump on us practice-wise," Battista said. "They have also played a lot more games than us (both Upsala and Ramapos have played nine games), so that is a factor. This could be the turning point of our season." 130 Heister St. The Arena's New Luncheon Buffet. Includes Soup, Salads, - and an Assortment of Sandwich Meats. All you can eat only $3.25.

Lion fencers expect,, easy weekend; face 3 New York teams "It's going to be anotherlong wpekend," men's fencing coach Mu. Garret said. "Possibly as long as last weekend." Garret is talking about the three meets the Lions will • compete in betwe9n tomorrow and Sunday. It will be quite a busy weekend for, Penn State, as it will fence Pace University and Brooklyn COl lege tomorrow and Yeshiva Universie on Sunday. But Garret is not at all worried aboUt the competition his 'team will face. "Comparatively, I do not believe that these teams will be as difficult for our team as last week's,' he said. 0 "In fact, we don't anticipate too much difficulty at all from each of these thro teams." Penn State will be traveling to New York without one of the team's top epee competitors; Marc Watts sustained 'a severely sprained ankle in last wee* . match at George Mason. "We won't be taking Marc to NeW York City," Garret said.'"We want hint to recover completely, and we need him for the rest of the season." - - Freshman Jeff Brown will get his first taste of collegiate competition tail weekend, and Garret said he has high hopes for him "I want to find out whatlfie can do this weekend," Garret said. "Brown happens to be an individifal who placed fourth in the under-19 RI tionals last June, so we want to see whether or not he has the potential we think he has." y ; ~ ~~ l ' t 1 —by Laurel Jacobs Unbeaten By , TONY SMITH ;; ,Daily Collegian Sports Writer Bowling coach Don Ferrell is looking ;forward to matches against Temple z ,Aaturday at 1 p.m. and Drexel Sunday at ~ ~) !

"I hope we make it (in the top 10)," Ferrell said, "but you can never be sure how it is going to turn out. "You know what happens with the other teams," Ferrell added, referring to other Penn State athletic teams. Penn State hopes to continue to make -its case for the top 10 tomorrow, when it 'hosts Temple at Rec Hall. The Lions were scheduled to host Drexel on Sun day, but due to a change in the school calendar, Drexel may not be permitted to show up, Ferrell said. The Owls will be-looking to avenge the two losses they suffered to Penn State in November. The Lions won, 14-; the Lady Lions won 13-6. Ferrell said he an ticipates a serious challenge from the Temple team. "Both the men's and women's mat ches should be close," said Ferrell. "It won't belopsided like it was with Lincoln (University) last week." Ferrell said the fact that Penn State defeated Temple earlier this season won't affect his teams. "We get motivated out of competition; we enjoy competing," Ferrell said. "If nothing else, the act of keeping our winn ing streak alive motivates our team." Temple has seen Penn State and now knows its strengths and 'weaknesses, which could help the Owls tomorrow. "Once you know a team, it is the abili ty of the coach to strategically place his players in positions which will work to the best advantage of his team," Ferrell said. Ferrell is trying to finalize his starting lineups for the rest of the season. Star ting in January, Ferrell will utilize only seven bowlers (five starters and two substitutes) for the men's and women's teams. STRIKES AND SPARES: Men's team captains Jay Jacobson and Terry Sanson performed well at the Eastern Collegiate Doubles Championghips in November at New York. They finished second to Mark Hatton and Brian Higgins of Ramapo College The Lions have won 19 straight con ference matches over the past two years. . . .The Lady Lions have only lost one home match in the past five years and that was to Temple.
