Navy sinks Lions in twinbill opener
By JOHN SEVERANCE
Collegian_ Sports Writer
For eight consecutive years, the old
Washington Senators won their opener,
but could only finish above .500 once and
usually ended up in the cellar of the
American League East. So there is still
hope for the baseball team after it was
trounced by Navy, 8-1 and 15-1 on Satur
day in 'Annapolis.
In the first game, played in gusty
winds of 40 mph and a wind chill factor of
20 degrees, Penn State trailed 2-1 until
the bottom of the fourth when the Mid
shipmen loaded up the bases on two
walks by starter Dave Spamer and a
single by Bob Wild. Navy's Steve Kaiser
clouted a triple to clear the bases.
After Kaiser's triple, Penn State coach
Clarence "Shorty" Stoner replaced
Spamer with sophomore Mike Hughes.
"Spamer had to throw one down the
middle or he would haVe walked in a
Penn State bowlers guttered in regionals
Both the men's and women's bowling teams' seasons
came to a disapointing close this weekend as they failed
to win the ACU-I sectional tournament in Bel Aire, Md.
that would Mire sent them to the national tournament.
SUNY-Buffalo, ranked fifth in the country, edged the
Lady Lions by 18 pins, overcoming a 175 pin lead in the
last four games.
"We lost it in the 10th frame of the 11th and 12th
games," Penn State coach Don Ferrell said. "In the 11th
game, we had four open frames in the 10th, , which
means we lost about 60 pins. In the 12th game, we had
three open frames, which cost us about 45 pins."
The turning point of the tournament wasn't in the 11th
and 12th games,but in the seventh game when Penn'
State shot a paltry 731 series.

really good considering he has thrown

Navy added two runs in the sixth to
make the final score 8-1.

second after a walk to designated hitter
Keith Carango. Carango advanced to

Things started miserably for the Lions
in the second game as starter Tom Bart
gave up seven first-inning runs. Bart
started the second inning but couldn't
retire a batter as the Midshipmen
showed no mercy pummeling him with
three more runs.
Junior pitcher Regis Scanlon fared no
better as he gave up three more runs in
relief of Bart. However, he did manage to
retire two Navy batters. Sophomore
pitcher Mike Bellaman finally got the

"That put doubt into our minds on whether we could
win it," Ferrell said. "It gave the other teams momen
tum especially SUNY."
Of all the teams in the country, the Lady Lions had the
toughest road to Orlando because they were in the
toughest section of the country.
"It's a shame that two of the top ten teams in the
country have to be in the same section to qualify for
nationals," junior captain Audrey Hichar said. '
the Lady Lions received fine performances from
Donna Pedro, who shot a 941 for five games and Diane
Novinger, a 188 average for 12 games.
While the Lady Lions had a Oot at winning the title,

trouble was the scoreboard displayed a
13-0 score after the second inning.
After Navy scored two more runs in the
fourth inning to make it 15-0, the Lions
finally crossed the plate when freshman
pinch hitter Mike Obeid smashed a dou
ble. Third basemen Todd Hostetler drove
in Obeid for the Lions only score.
Mercifully, the umpires called the
game after the fifth inning because of the
cold.
"I couldn't even feel my hands," Hos
teller said.
"Obeid showed a lot of guts being down
and playing in a gusty wind to come in
and hit a rope like that," Stoner said.
Although the inclement weather
played a major role in the demise of the
Lions, that wasn't their only problem.
"We essentially lost all three phases of
the game," Stoner said, "we made some
bad routine plays, we definitely have to

It definitely wasn't the Lions' weekend

Navy.
"I hurt my elbow in practice two days
ago throwing in the outfield," Puharic
said. "I'm going to see the doctor tomor

Sixers shatter Celtics'
1 8-game win streak
By HOWARD ULMAN
AP Sports Writer
BOSTON (AP) The Boston Cel
tics were the ones with the 18-game
winning streak, but it was the Phila
delphia 76ers who more nearly resem
bled the team that had not lost in more
than a month.
"They played the game today the
way we played the last 18 games,"
Bokon's Larry Bird said yesterday.
The 76ers, behind Andrew Toney's
23 points, had just rolled to a 116-98
NBA victory that snapped Boston's
winning streak.
"Regardless of what the records
are, when these two teams meet, you
can throw that out the window," Phil
adelphia's Caldwell Jones said.
"I thought it would be a close game,
and I think everyone on this team felt
we could win the ballg'ame. We'never
let them establish their game. We
wanted to go out and he the aggres
sors."
Boston coach Bill Fitch said,
."As
long as we had to lose, I'm glad it was
to Philadelphia. ... If you've got to get
beat, get beat by the best."
Bird said that now that it's over, he
didn't think the longest winning
streak in Boston history means that
much to the players who achieved it.
"It's great to have a Celtic record,
but you have to go out and play every
game," he said. "Thee streak meant a
lot for a while, but now its a thing of
the past."

The Celtics never led in the game,
as their nine-game home winning
streak over Philadelphia was
snapped. The 76ers won just one week
after losing to Boston at Philadelphia
123-111.
Philadelphia led 26-15 after the first
quarter as Boston made just 25 per
cent of its field goal attempts. The
76ers then started the second quarter
with a nine-point run that built their
lead to 35-15 with 10:31 left in the first
half.
Mike Bantom started the spurt with
a three-point play, and followed with a
tip-in. Julius Erving, who had 21
points, then capped a fast break with
a dunk, and a 12-foot jumper by Dar
ryl Dawkins closed the outburst..
The closest Boston could come after
that was to within 11 points as the
Celtics scored 11 consecutive points to
make the score 49-38 with 1:53 left in
the first half.
Philadelphia led 57-44 at halftime,
and built its biggest lead with an 8-2
run to make the score 107-81 midway
through the final period. Toney scored
six of those points.
Philadelphia moved to within 5 1 / 2
games of first-place Boston in the
Atlantic Division as it won for the 19th
time in, 26 games. Bobby Jones added
19 points . for the 76ers. Lionel'Hollins
had 17.
Boston, whose last loss came on
Feb.'2l in Seattle, remained tied with
the 1969-70 New York Knicks for the
NBA's third longest winning streak.

Lady Lions 'beat odds' to win opener
By MARIA MARTINO
Collegian Sports Writer
When the women's lacrosse team opened its season at
James Madison Saturday, it was prepared to play a new
game based on Murphy's Law, it's called Beat the Odds.
The rules are relatively simple.
First, play the season opener away against a team
that has two wins under its belt (11-9 over Towson State
and 12-8 over Old Dominion) not counting a difficult
tournament a weekend, earlier at the University of
Richmond.
Then, discover Thursday that the game will be played
on grass after practicing almost exclusively on astro
turf.
Next, Mother Nature decides to provide bitterly cold,
blustery weather for the occasion with a windchill
factor of zero.
Then for good measure, field a team that consists of
five freshmen, one senior in her first varsity game and
only five returning starters.
And to make the odds seem virtually insurmountable,
play without the services of Penn State's all-time
leading scorer All-American Candy Finn, who
strained a ligament in her knee.
But, all the Lady Lions could do was laugh at the hand
fate had dealt them and play out the hand.
Penn State played catch-up in the first half before
beating the Duchesses 8-7 in a see-saw game.
"We were up against the odds," coach Gillian Rattray
said, "and it's to our credit that we didn't panic and we
came back from a 2-0 deficit. We had a lot of pluses
six of our eight goals were from freshmen. That speaks
well for the future.

"I don't think in the history of Penn State we have
ever had fivefreshmen start, and only one senior, Janet
Dolan, who played point. There was some opening-game
nerves, some hesitation, but I was pleased with it for an
opener."
Freshman Marsha Florio, who started at second
home Finn's regular position, didn't hesitate long as
she gave the Lady Lions their first lead (3-2) late in the
first half. Florio ended the day with three goals and
three assists while freshman Lynn Jordan also tallied
three goals.
"I felt a little nervous," Florio said. "Without Candy,
there was a little extra pressure on us. This was the only
game she's ever missed since she was in college.
Everyone was a little scared, but after the first half, we
were more cohfidant,"
Sarah Heilman put the Duchesses on top first with a
goal assisted by Sue Peacock. Then Peacock doubled
their lead halfway through the first 25 minutes.
Lynn Jordan and Florio combined for three goals in
the space of one minute to put the Lady Lions up by one:
Jordan from Florio at 16:19, Jordan unassisted at 17:10,
and seconds later, Florio from Betsy Williams. But
James Madison scored once more to tie the score 3-3 at
halftime.
Rattray said Penn State had worried that Williams,
the first home, suffered from frostbite because she
couldn't feel the stick in her hands. While she could not
grip her stick well, she still•managed to get off the "good
passes," Florio added.
"It was perishing," Rattray said of the cold. "It
certainly spoiled the flow of our game. We like a quick,
short passing game, but you couldn't feel the ball in the

"And with the gusting wind, you'd think you would
have the ball, and it takes off on its own," she laughed.
"I was hoping to make more substitutions, but it took
too long to warm up from the sidelines."
Rattray sent Judy Mahaffey into the game halfway
through the final half to distract the Duchesses behind
the cage.
"Two of Peacock's goals came from the backdoor,"
the Lady Lion coach said. "Our defense was caught ball
watching. But our second half showed we really learned
a lot from the first half. We kept our calm and we shot
them down to just six shots the second half."
Penn State was outshot 12-10 in the 'first period.
Lady Lion Laurie Gray scored an unassisted goal to
open the second half, but Peacock tied it up less than a
minute later.
Williams and Florio each added a Penn State goal
before Heilman scored for James Madison. Then Jor
dan and Duchess Barb Baker exchanged goals before
Peacock tied it up 7-7.
With 1:21 to go, Florio converted a pass from Jane
Koffenberger into the gamewinner.
"Their cover point would drop off of me to pick up
another player so we just waited for that," Florio said.
"We kept things more spread out on attack, too.
"At first, we weren't patient enough. We all cut at the

was, helping us out so much because she could see our
plays a lot better."

Laxers crushed by Orange
By PAUL ALEXANDER
Collegian Sports Writer
The men's lacrosse team experi
enced more than an abrupt change in
the weather on Saturday at the Astro
turf practice field when the Orange
men from Syracuse proved to be too
much for the Nittany Lions.
After a relatively easy victory over
Lehigh (23-6) on a beautiful spring
day last Saturday, both Mother Na
ture and the Orangemen made things
rather unpleasant for the Lions to the
tune of a 12-4 defeat in very blustery
conditions.
Syracuse, ranked 10th nationally,
totally dominated the Lions with their
ball-control offense and overall team
speed.
Despite the lopsidedness of the con
test, the Lions did a lot of things right,
head 'coach Glenn Thiel said.
"(Goalie) Joey Guterding played
great for us against some very good
shooters and the defense as a whole
played well," he said. "We forced a
lot of loose balls, but they always
seemed to pick them up and we
started some good plays, but we
weren't able to finish them."
Loose balls and face-offs were con
trolled by Syracuse almost solely and
its ball control on offense really kept
the pressure on the Lion defense.
Greg Tarbell, one of the country's
finest attackmen, kept quite a bit of
pressure on the Lion defense. He and
teammate Dave Desko each scored
three goals a piece for the Orange
men.
Tarbell set the tone for the contest
with only 45 seconds elapsed. He and
Desko combined for the first three
Syracuse goals and gave the Orange-

The Daily Collegian Monday, March 29;1982
men a 3-0 first quarter lead. They had
built the lead to six before Dave
Taylor put the Lions on the board with
a goal on an assist from Gary Martin.
The Lions went into the Indoor
Sports CoMplex locker room, trailing
6-1, but with a trace of momentum
generated by getting the last goal of
the half and finally getting on the
scoreboard.
Syracuse started the second half
just as they did in the first half, with
two quick goals. Trailing 8-1, the Li
ons had two choices: roll over and
play dead or suck it up and give the
Orangemen everything they had.
A great individual effort by Martin
convinced the Lions that they weren't
finished yet and then five minutes
later Martin netted his second goal of
the third quarter on another unas
sisted goal from point-blank range.
The attempted comeback was con
tagious. The few brave fans rallied
behind the Lions as freshman Bill
Schoonmaker brought the Lions one
goal closer, 8-3 with a fine unassisted
goal in the waning minutes of the third
quarter.
"I was pleased with the way the
kids came back," Thiel said. "When
they reflect back on this game, they'll
realize they did a lot of things well."
The Lions on the other hand were
given a lesson in what to expect from
the top lacrosse teams in the country.
"The guys are going to be very
anxious to work," Thiel said. "We
have to be more patient on offense and
be more selective with our fast break:'
Last year the Lions lost 18-4 to
Syracuse and finished the season with
a 9-2 record and Thiel feels the team is
much further along than last year's
squad.
