18—The Daily Collegian Thursday, Dec. 3, 1981 Textile win sends Lion booters packing By STEVE GRAHAM Daily Collegian Sports Writer Perhaps it was only fitting that the men's soccer team complete its somewhat maligned season with a shutout loss in the City of Brotherly Love. Philadelphia is not only the place where Penn State coach Walt Bahr was reared on the game of soccer, it is also the home of Philadelphia Textile, the nation's third ranked team that put an abrupt end to the Lions' season • with a 2-0 victory Nov. 21. At game time, the atmosphere wash anything but brotherly love between these two Eastern soccer pow ers. Ironically, Textile All-American Torn McDonald, brother of Penn State defender Bill McDonald, scored what proved to be the game-winning goal when he blasted a shot past Lion goaltender Greg Kenney with about 35 minutes left. For the Lions (15-5-1), it was a game they would just as soon forget about. And for Penn State senior mid fielder Duncan Mac Ewan, it wasn't the best way to finish an otherwise illustrious career. ' "It was a sad note to go out on," said Mac Ewan, who added that he hadn't been pleased with his play all year. "It was typical of the whole season. We were just stale, that's all. It's got to be a disappointment. Coach (Bahr) may not think so." Although Bahr did not put it in the same terms as Mac Ewan, he was a little dejected that the Lions' season did not live up to what he had hoped. "It's always easy to be the Monday-morning coach," Bahr said. "Two of the losses (3-2 to Lock Haven and 2-1 to William & Mary), I definitely think we could have changed the results. Two of the losses were toss-ups." Perhaps the loss to Textile (18-1-1) was one of those toss-ups. In what had been a typical scenario all season, Penn State had the opportunities to draw first blood, but couldn't capitalize. It was only a matter of time before the Rams scored a goal on their home field. rs Esc . ..-- ..... ....m ...... ..:;.::.:.:'...::..i.: - 0.0.11:. .....-:....::::::.:HENItY:::::.. g ' ii g . il g MICHAEL'S CLOTHING co. w g' , co ntie„,,, w .

At halftime, I thought we would go out and get a goal or two. "I just thought Textile had a better second half. We seemed to be a little flat in the second half. As a coach, you wonder what happened." What happened was that the Lions produced very few scoring chances after halftime. It's bad enough when a team doesn't convert on its opportunities, but it's even worse when a team cannot set up many attempts to score a goal. • "I really didn't think we created a whole lot," Mac - wan said. "At the end of the first half, the game was ours for the taking." Tom McDonald's goal took away, even the slightest hopes of the Lions' advancing to the quarterfinals of the National Collegiate Athletic Association tournament. Then, about 16 minutes later, Ram defender Steve Perillo took a pass from Sean Fryatt and knocked in.an insurance goal to lift Textile to the Mid-Atlantic Soccer Championship. "Tommy controlled the midfield for them," Mac - wan said. "He's involved quite a lot for them. We should have had it (McDonald's goal). He just slipped by a couple of us." "The goalkeeper didn't have a chance on either goal," agreed Bahr, placing part of the blame on the Lion defense. "They were goals that we normally would have stopped. The second goal was the type of thing where we had control of the ball,and lost it." Shortly before Perillo's score, the Lions could see the writing on the wall. Greg Dennis, one of the mainstays of Penn State's highly-touted defense, was ejected from the game after a skirmish with a Ram player. "It was probably my fault," Dennis said. "I kind of lost my cool. It was an ignorant thing 'to do. It was a stupid thing to do."

But even that factor, Bahr and Mac Ewan agreed, didn't determine the outcome of the game. "After Greg went off, we kind of buckled up a bit," Mac Ewan said. "We thought, 'Well, we've got it all to do now.' " Now, the Lions have nothing to do. No sooner had they been invited to participate in the tournament, they've been ushered out of it.

TAKE DOWNS: Hanrahan said senior Bob Bury, a NCAA qualifier Women harriers 10th at NCAAs By,CLINT LOPER Daily Collegian Sports Writer Youth prevailed in Wichita last Monday as the Virginia Cavaliers rolled to an easy victory in the women's cross country NCAA na tional championships. Led by standout performer Aileen O'Connor and a bunch of under classmen, Virginia tallied a team score of 36 points, bettering Oregon (83), Stanford (105), Michigan State (122), North Carolina State (123) and eight other schOols. There were no seniors on the top three squads. Penn State finished a disappoint ing 10th, with 249 points. Heather Carmichael, the fastest of the Lady Lions, finished 98th, more than 70 seconds off the pace. She was followed closely by team mate Patty Murnane, who finished 51st. Doreen Startare, Monique Purcell and Carolyn Ihrig were Penn State's other scorers. Lady Lion coach Gary Schwartz said Penn State's women ran much as, they had all season and that wasn't good enough. "In a big meet like this," he said, "you have to have some people run their best races. We didn't have anybody who rose above them selves." North Carolina State's. Betty Jo Springs, runner-up last year, reaped individual honors in 16:19.0, a course record. , She was followed by the tightly-packed group of Oregon's Leann Warren, Virginia's O'Connor, Oklahoma's Kelly Cathey and Vir ginia's freshman sensation, Lesley Welch.

The team, a preseason favorite, finished a dismal eighth after two important injuries and . poor perforniances from its healthy runners. Another outstanding freshman in the meet (11 of them placed in the top 50, five in the top 20) was Lisa Welch, Lesley's twin sister and tea mmate, who placed eighth. If Penn State's freshmen, Heidi Gerken and Sue Miley, would have come through with good races, the standings might have been some what different. Gerken, who was one of Penn State's top three runners all season, finished 84th (sixth among Lady Lions), and Miley finished 90th (seventh).. Schwartz said his team's lack of experience was probably a factor. "When freshmen come into a big meet like this," he said, "they go one of two ways. Either they're oblivious to the importance of the meet and they do great, or they look around at all the other runners and don't do so well." Obviously Gerken , and Miley looked around too much. "I think I'm capable of running better than I did," said Gerken, who confessed to being scared by the size of the meet. "I hope so." Miley said she felt the same way about herself. Although Virginia won easily, Schwartz was not positive the Atlan tic Coast Conference school had the best talent. "They are very , well-coached and they've got some tough kids," the coach said. "But Stanford's got good talent, too, and a lot of freshmen."

You know, the easy conversation starter "How was your break?" Well, women's volleyball coach Russ Rose could not evade the million dollar question this time. In fact, he was more than willing to answer it. When asked, Rose said his break was great. And the main reason was the Lady Lions (43-4) were one of the 20 teams to receive a bid to the first National Collegiate Athletic Association Women's Volleyball Championships. In first round action, Penn State, seeded 13th, will battle 20th seed Cincinnati, the Metro Conference win ner, at 2 Sunday afternoon in Rec Hall. "I am really excited that we are going to nationals and especially because we get the chance to play at home again," Rose said. "It will be a good opportunity But Penn State's finest hour came in the semifinals against lowa, a team it shut out earlier this season. lowa also boasted a 23-4-1 record and the Big Ten championship. for the seniors and we are looking forward in represent ing Penn State the best we can. "NCAAs are more of a reward to the team for what it has accomplished all season. But no matters what happens win or lose the girls will always be winners to me." However, there was one sour note preceeding the national bid announcement. 'Earlier in the week the Lady Lions traveled to Evanston, 111., where they.split two dual matches with Northwestern. Penn State won the first match 15-8, 15-12, 12-15, 15-10 but the Lady Wildcats came back strong to take the second match easily, 15-4, 15-4, 15-8. Rose did not hold the same excitement he had when speaking about the NCAAs. "Northwestern played a flawless second match," Rose said. "We played with a lot of confidence the day before and it seemed they made some good adjust ments. We took it to them the first time, but they came back fired up." Despite the 'setback at Northwestern, Lady Lion co Likewise, Rattray said they played a "picture-perfect game, we just clicked as a team." The Lady Lions played just well enough to win, but no better, against seventh-ranked Dartmouth in the first round. They led 2-0 at the half, then sat on their lead but kept their opposition off the board. • "Sometimes we expect more of our selves than we should,",Finn said. "We were looking ahead to lowa, saying just win this one because tomorrow will be tough." Winning the championship also marked the finale of Finn's illustious field hockey career. Though she made the All-American team, along with Stauf fer, Finn decided not to play in the All- American tournament. "I've retired from hockey," said Penn State's all-time leading scorer. "I'm hap py with what I've done. I told Miss Rattray at the beginning of the season, I had two things left and I've done them.

If we won both matches we would have had a bye in the,first rounds. "But just getting a bid is great. And I would rather play Sunday than not at all.
