16—The Daily Collegian Thursday, March 11, 1982 Trackwomen capture Eastern title By KATHY HETTMANSPERGER Collegian Sports Writer The women's indoor track team did it again. For the second consecutive year, it ran, jumped and threw its way to another Eastern AIAW regional championship. The Lady Lions' 104 1 / 4 points easily topped second place Mor gan State (68), to take the.top spot. Depth was a key factor for Penn State as 21 of the 23 athletes who competed for the Lady Lions scored and 13 earned All- Eastern honors by placing among the top three in their event. The Lady Lions captured the title, not by winning events, but by placing second in eight .events, third in three and fourth in five. "One of the requirements for compet ing in this meet is having scoring poten tial," coach Gary Schwartz said. "The coaches and athletes have to be confident that she will score." Once again co-captain Vivian Riddick turned in strong performances. She picked up second places in the 55-meter dash (7.04) and the long jump (18-11 3 / 4 ). Her time in the dash set a new Penn State indoor record. "In Vivian's race, luck was a big factor. She missed her start but really came on in the end," Schwartz said. "If the race had been a couple of more steps she would have had it." First place in the event went to Tam mie Henderson of New Castle in a time of 7.02. Riddick was also influential on the 800- meter relay team.

Lion trackmen finish Bth at By RYAN POOLE Collegian Sports Writer The mens' track team finished its indoor season on a positive note, as it scored 26 points to finish eighth at the IC4A meet in Princeton, N.J. last weekend. Fairleigh Dickinson took first with a score of 56 points. The Intercollegiate Amateur Athletic Association is the oldest athletic association in the United States. One hundred and four colleges are members in the organization, therefore this same amount of teams enter the meet each year. Ninety teams scored in this meet, therefore no team had an enormous score. Lion coach Harry Groves was pleased with his team's finish because of the large number of teams that participated in the meet. "Anytime we're in the top 10 we're doing well," Groves said. "There aren't that many winners (in the meet) because the "Heather is capable of running faster, but you have to use your arms at the end of the race, and she couldn't do that. I'm very pleased with what she did with what she had." Rounding out the second places for Penn State were Terry Pioli in the 800 (2:12.26) ; Monique Purcell in the 5,000, in a personal best of 17:16.0; Elaine Sobans ky in the shotput with a throw"of 53-3 1 / 4 and the 3,200 relay of Sue Miley, Carolyn Ihrig, Judy Cassel and Terry Pioli (9:02.53).

Another Lion team faring well was the distance medley team with a time of (9:59.0) for a fourth place finish. Running for Penn State were Steve Schisler (1:55.8), Bruce Evans (49.3), Rick Garcia (3:03.1) and Gary Black (4:10.8). Jeff Adkins took fourth in the 3,000. Adkins ran a strong race with a time of 8:10.2, but Georgetown's John Gregorek edged him out to win in 8:06.8. The Collegian is written by white, - ` 4 4:3:',:.)" • ) i. ..i , •.. ..

(AP) Philadelphia Flyers president Bob Butera said yesterday he still plans to veto any attempt by the Meadowlands to acquire a NHL.team other than the New York Rangers or New York Is landers. "Our position has been consistent for three years," Butera said in a telephone interview. "We think two teams are sufficient in the New York region unless someone can prove otherwise." The Rangers, who play at Madison Square Garden, announced two weeks ago that they will not prevent another team from moving to the Mead owlands Arena here if they decide to stay in New York. The Rangers have territorial rights to the Meadowlands, but if they decide to stay in New York, NJSE officials probably will search for another team to relocate in their new $Bl-million facility. But a move by any other team requires unanimous approval of the NHL clubs approval Butera says he is not ready to give.

"We don't think the region can support any more teams from a fan standpoint or from a television stand point," Butera said, speaking for the Flyers' management.

Photo Courtesy La Vie Yes, By DEAN FOSDICK Associated Press Writer NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) Few schools can match the rags-to-riches college basketball story that Robert Morris College has to tell. Coach Matt Furjanic admitted to reporters at a news conference yesterday that his team would have been happy just to improve last year's 9-18 record, let alone face defending NCAA-champion Indiana tomorrow night in the first round of the Mideast Regionals at Vanderbilt. The winner of the other first-round game between Kentucky and Middle Tennessee is to meet' Louisville, while the Robert Morris-Indiana winner is scheduled to go against Alabama-Birmingham. Both of those games are Saturday afternoon. "Going into this season, we said we'd be happy if we won 11 games," Furjanic said of Robert Morris, a Pittsburgh school that was competing on the junior college level six years ago. "Then we wanted more. . .then we wanted the conference (ECAC-Metro South) championship. "Then we wanted the tournament," the coach said. "We won that. Then we got into the NCAAs. Now we want to beat Indiana. "We may be young and foolish but we want to win." Young, maybe, but not foolish. Robert Morris doesn't ...as NCAA cagers ready CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) Last year, Wake Forest received a first-round bye before being upset by Boston College in the NCAA tournament. But there are other reasons that Demon Deacon coach Carl Tacy is pleased to be playing Old Dominion in this year's East Regional opener. "Knowing that we would have to play Memphis State in the second game I would certainly rather play in the opening round," he said. "Having to sit around and wait last year I thought was to the advantage of Boston College. They seemed to play looser and more relaxed and we were a little tight.", I. 19., Wake Forest, 20-7, plays Old Dominion, 18-11, at 9:38 p.m. EST tomorrow in Charlotte Coliseum. Old Dominion, which won the East Coast Athletic Con ference tournament by beating James Madison 58-57 Sunday, carries an 18-11 record into its fifth National Collegiate Athletic Association postseason appearance in six years. Although 6-11 center Mark West leads the Monarchs with 16.1 points per game, he will be matched against Wake Forest's 6-11 Jim Johnstone with 6-8 Guy Morgan and 6-9 Anthony Teachey helping out on the boards for the Demon Deacons.

The starting five consists of three freshmen and two sophomores. The tallest player goes 6-foot-6. "We play with heart, with intensity, and we play togeth er," Furjanic said. "We play with eight to nine people per game. One of the big reasons we're in the tournament is because everyone has contributed at one time or another." The team's best players are guards, sophomore Chipper Harris, who averages 17.1 points per game and leads the nation in steals with 104, and Forest Grant, who contrib utes 13.4 points per contest. "Defense is the thing that's made us successful," the coach said. "We like to keep teams from getting the ball to within 10 to 15 feet of the basket. We're a quick ball club, allowing 68 points. "We look for the fast break; we like to run." Furjanic knows Indiana is a tough team, having won two national championships in the last six years. But he thinks they can be had. "We've heard Indiana has had trouble with smaller, quicker teams they've faced because size is one of their assets," Furjanic said. "We hope they continue to have that kind of trouble because we fit in that category." Indiana coach Bobby Knight told reporters he isn't taking Robert Morris lightly. Tacy said his team and the Monarchs are similar. "They like to fast break and they run different defensive sets," he said. "They're more our style of team. I think it will be an excellent ball game." The other first-round game at Charlotte pits James Madison, who lost to ODU in the finals of the ECAC South tournament, against Ohio State. While Ohio State, 21-9, won seven straight before closing with an 87-75 loss to league champion Minnesota, James Madison coach Lou Campanelli expected no changes against the Buckeyes. "I think we're good enough that we don't have to come up with any surprises," Campanelli said. "We have a good system and I don't see any reason to change." The Dukes are led by 6-7 forward Linton Townes, who is averaging 16.6 points . But Ohio State coach Eldon Miller said it was James Madison's defense that had him worried. Campanelli's 23-5 Dukes open at 7:08 p.m. EST tomor row against Ohio State. In Saturday's second round, the winner of the James Madison-Ohio State game plays No. 1-ranked and top seeded North Carolina, 27-2, and the Old Dominion-Wake Forest winner will face Memphis State, 23-4. time: College Ave. Mid• State .4 Wilson's R .
