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.

"In the first half," Bahr said, "I thought we played
well enough to maybe be a goal. up. 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."
As a result, the Lions had to play shorthanded the rest

of the game. 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.
But of course, there's always next year.

She was followed closely by team

51st.
Doreen Startare, Monique Purcell

other scorers.

said Penn State's women ran much

sixth. Her performance was indica
tive of Arizona's performance. 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."

"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

"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.
