Flyers beat Quebec to gain quarterfinals
By RALPH BERNSTEIN
AP Sports Writer
PHILADELPHIA (AP) "They
scared the heck out of us," said coach
Pat Quinn after his Phladelphia Flyers
skated into the NHL's Stanley Cup play
off quarterfinal round last night.
Al Hill's second-period goal snapped a
tie as the Flyers went on to a 5-2 victory
over the Quebec Nordiques to win the
series, three games to 'two, before a
sellout crowd.
The Flyers won the first two games at
home before losing twice in Quebec.
Quinn said the key to the Flyers'
clinching victory was the goal by Kenny
Linseman after only 18 seconds of the
third period.
"It gave us a cushion," said Quinn of
the goal that sent the Flyers ahead 3-1.
Quinn actually breathed a sigh or re
lief.
"I just lost the butterflies a few min
utes ago," he said after the game. "For
four games it looked frustrating, like
Montreal being beaten by Edmonton."
Quebec coach Michel Bergeron said he
was extremely proud of his team's per
formance.
"We never quit. We'll' be better next
year," he said. "The Flyers are a tough
team, and I think we prepared them for
their next series."
Philadelphia took a 1-0 lead over the
tenacious Nordiques at 17:16 of the first
period on Rick MacLeish's 49th Stanley
Cup playoff goal, a 25-footer that caught
goalie Dan Bouchard out of the net.
Quebec, however, tied it 48' seconds
later on an eight-footer by Michel Goulet
between the legs of goalie Pete Peeters.
The Flyers went ahead 2-1 at 10:05 of
the second period when Hill's'sixth Stan
ley Cup career playoff goal beat Bou
chard from about five feet on the goalie's
glove side.
Philadelphia broke the game open ear
ly in the third period as Kenny Linseman,
who also had two assists, scored at 18
seconds off a two-on-one break.
Less than three minutes later, Paul
Holmgren boosted the Flyers' lead to 4-1
on a 15-foot backhander. Brian Propp
made it 5-1 just 69 seconds later from
about the same distance.
.Anton Stastny scored for Quebec to
Make it 5-2.
:I;he Flyers outshot the Nordrques 37-18
to „make goalie Pete Peeters'. .second
victory of the series.

Lion
despite lack
By STEVE GRAHAM
Daily Collegian Sports Writer
Men's volleyball coach Tom Tait may
never have taken his team to Hershey
park, but he'll readily admit the Lions
have been riding a reckless rollercoaster
all season long.
In front of a sparse crowd last night at
Rec Hall, Penn State (26-3) hit one of the
dreaded dips of its up-and-down cam
paign but still went on to trounce rival
Pittsburgh in three games, 15-8, 16-14 and
15-8.
The Lions, who have constantly had
problems this year getting up for lacklus
ter opponents like the Panthers, survived
a ferocious Pitt attack in the first two
Little Pittsburgh looks up
to goliath Lion front line
By RICH SCARCELLA
Daily Collegian Sports Writer
Even at first glance, it was apparent
Penn State would dwarf Pitt in its volley
ball match last night at Rec Hall.
Because the Nittany Lions towered
over the Panthers like Gulliver over the
Lilliputians, it looked as though the
match would be no contest. But it was, at
least for a while.
The giant was both bothered and an
noyed.by the little people until it finally
broke free and leaped over the dimuni
tive ones, 15-8, 16-14 and 15-8. Gulliver
may have had less trouble during his
travels.
"They were able to get away with
things they should never get away with,"
Penn State coach Tom Tait said. "They
attacked a lot from the middle and with
shoot-sets. Because of their personnel,
they have to play a scrappy type of ball to
win."
Scrappy wasn't the adjective to de
scribe Pitt. It was more like masochistic.
Compared to Lion skyscrapers like 6-6
Steve Hunkins, 6-5 Chuck Kegerreis and
6-5 Mark Kraynik, the Panthers looked
like mere insects waiting to be stepped
on. Especially with a front line that
measured 6-3, 6-2 and 6-0.
But they managed to avoid the stomp
of Penn State's foot by controlling the
tempo of the first two games with quick
sets and other off-speed hits.
"Game one and game two were the
best we've played against Penn State,"
Pitt coach Ray Reilly said. "We con
trolled the tempo in those two games. We
spikers
games and chalked up, their eighth East
ern Collegiate Volleyball League win
against only one defeat.
Still, Tait and Lion assistant coach"
Dave Mull frowned upon Penn State's
lack of intensity, something that has
haunted the team since it opened the
season'in mid-December.
"It's one of the things that we've been
talking about all season," Mull said. "No
matter who you play, you gotta get
psyched. The biggest part of the match
was that the intensity level was low.
"There's no doubt about it. . .if we play
our ball, we're gonna kill them."
If it hadn't been for Pitt knocking
every other serve into the net or out of
had to do that to beat them.'A quick team
will do that. We don't have the power
from the outside. Their weak sport is the
middle."
The termite-like Panther offense ate
away at the middle of the Lions' defense
with numerous quick sets for middle
blocker Bill Knuth.
"They attacked the middle more this
year than last year," Kraynik said. "A
lot of teams are attacking there and
we're having trouble stopping it. A good
middle hitter will usually beat a good
middle blocker. If you control the mid
dle, you can control the whole game."
But Penn State didn't do that in the
first two games. Pitt's ability to force
numerous net violations in the middle
had the Lions searching for a can of Off!
to get rid of their pests.
Only two kills from the outside by
Ozcam and Mike Gordon allowed Penn
State to escape with a 16-14 second-game
win.
"They don't make the experienced
play from the outside like they did last
year," Gordon said. "They work a lot of
shoots this year. When you're against a
strong team, you have to run a high-risk
offense.".
After the second game, however, the
Panthers didn't bite; they didn't even
light.
"I think our second team did a whale of
a good job in the third game," Tait said.
"The second team shut down their mid
dle attack. When you shut down that on
them, they're in trouble."
And that's the tall and short of it
defeat Pitt
of
intensity
bounds, the Lions may have taken much
longer to dispose of their cross-state foe.
But in the end, the marathon match
which took 1% drawn-out hours to com
plete was an agonizing experience for
Tait.
(last) night's match except a win in the
win column.
"We didn't make stupid mistakes, we
made intensity-type errors."
Tait doesn't have to dig deep into the
his bag of matches to find other games in
which his team also played uninspired
ball. He can easily skim the surface and
scoop up such encounters as those with
Army, East Stroudsburg and George
Mason to serve as examples.
But when inspiration is absent against
the big guys, like it was against Rutgers-
Newark on Saturday and Ohio State
earlier in the year, Tait cannot pinpoint
an explanation for his squad's noncha
lance.
"It's a matter of not looking at things
as objectively as possible," Tait said.
"The important thing is, we have to do on
our side of the net what we need to do for
the Eastern championships."
Steve Hunkins, one of Penn State's
starting outside attackers, can't put a
finger on why the Lions have suffered a
rough and rocky season either.
"It's hard to get up for an inferior
team," Hunkins said. "If you don't have
the intensity, you're not really involved
in the game."
The only team other than Pitt that was
really involved in last night's match was
the Lions' second string, consisting of
setters Mike Guyon and Ken Kraft, Jeff
Johnson, Dave McMillan, Mark Stroh
meyer and captain Ron Shayka.
Capitalizing on the Panthers' neg
ligence in the third game, the six "re
serves" raced to an early 9-2 lead.
Johnson supplied the crushing spikes and
Kraft chipped in some perfect sets as the
Lions ran their domination over Pitt to
three victories this season.
Panther sophomore middle blocker
Bill Knuth, who repeatedly riddled the
Penn State defense with a barrage of kill
shots, said the Lions simply outclassed
Pitt in nearly every aspect of the game
last night.
"In games one and three, we beat
ourselves," Knuth said. "We couldn't
block them.. They're too much bigger
than we are.
"We just couldn't keep up with their
offense for a while. Our passing broke
down a little bit."

PHILADELPHIA (AP) The Philadelphia 76ers
are still waiting on Darryl Dawkins.
The flamboyant, inconsistent young center has had
one good game and three bad ones in the National
Basketball Association playoffs against the Milwaukee
Bucks. The teams are 2-2 in the best-of-seven Eastern
Conference semifinal, which resumes here tonight.
The 6-11%, 260-pound Dawkins, who turned pro out of
high school and is completing his sixth NBA season at
age 24, scored 23 points in the third game of this hard
fought series, and Philadelphia won 108-103. But he got
into early foul trouble in the other three games, and his
series totals are a very ordinary 12.3 points and 4.5
rebounds in just 24 minutes per game. In addition, he
has not had a single assist.
"We've got to get more out of Darryl, or we aren't
going to win this series," 76ers coach Billy Cunningham
said flatly. "He just doesn't seem to do well against the
Bucks, and I can't figure it out.
"If he keeps going like this, I've got to play Caldwell
Jones and Bobby Jones too much," Cunningham added.
"We won't be able to last against a team that runs like
the Bucks do."
Bucks center Bob Lanier had 23 points and nine
rebounds in Sunday's 109-98 Milwaukee victory which
evened the series. - He has outplayed Dawkins in every
category, averaging 17.5 points, 7.0 rebounds, 4.0 assists

and 1.5 blocks in 31.5 minutes per game.
"Friday we were able to stay out of foul trouble the
entire game," said Cunningham, referring to Philadel
phia's last victory and Dawkins' lone good game.
"Sunday, all of our key people had three fouls by the
third quarter."
Dawkins fouled out with 4:48 to play, and without
him the 76ers did not have anyone to muscle Lanier
away from the boards. As a result, Milwaukee was able
to run when it wanted to and also score off offensive
rebounds.
So keeping Dawkins out of foul trouble and in the
game becomes vital to the 76ers' success, especially if
they want to use defensive ace Caldwell Jones, a
starting forward who doubles as backup center, to try to
contain Milwaukee's high-scoring forward, Marques
Johnson.
NBA referees have seen Lanier for 11 seasons, know
his moves and tend to give him the benefit of the doubt.
And the wily 33-year-old pivotman knows exactly how
much he can get away with while staying out of foul
trouble.
But Dawkins is still regarded as the new kid on the
block, and his tendency toward wild leaps and flashy
moves only gets hint in trouble
"I don't want to get into a thing with the referees,"
said Dawkins when the subject was raised. "I don't
want to sound like I'm crying, so I'll just say I'm looking
forward to playing them again next time. The series

And what a series it hai been.
The surprising Kansas City Kings, successfully
playing tortoise to the Phoenix Suns' hare, attempt to
wrap up their NBA playoff series tonight at Phoenix,
and King forward Reggie King is predicting victory.
"The momentum is going our way. We've got their
number," claimed King, whose team holds a 3-1 lead in
the best-of-seven Western Conference semifinal.
Phoenix guard Dennis Johnson can't understand why
his team trails the Kings, who have dominated their
series despite being without regular guards Phil Ford
and 0 Birdsong, both of whom are injured.
SI only have seven or eight guys," Johnson said.
"It's dto figure out how they're beating us."
Actuilly, it isn't all that difficult. Because of the
injuries; the Kings have been forced to play at a slow
down pate. And so far that has frustrated the Suns, who
are more comfortable in a running game.
"So far our tempo is winning," said Ernie Grunfeld,
a reserve who has teamed with small forward Scott
Wedman in Kansas City's makeshift backcourt.
"The Kings are just playing their, regular game and
we're not," said Walter Davis, the Suns' star guard.
"We've never missed open shots and free throws like
this. Their tempo rules us. We have to change."
But Phoenix coach John MacLeod said he doesn't
plan any major shakeup.
