Protests abound at Wimbledon
By GEOFFREY MILLER
AP Sports Writer
WIMBLEDON, England John McEnroe con
tinued his bickering with Wimbledon officials
yesterday as the All-England Tennis
Championships exploded into protests and argu
ments.
McEnroe was warned for knocking a divot out
of the grass court with his racket and then was
handed a penalty point for slamming a ball into
the net. But the point was rescinded after the
tournament referee and supervisor had been
called to the court. '
After a 2%-hour match beset by arguments and
controversy, McEnroe defeated Florin Segarcea
nu of Romania 4-6,6-2,6-3,6-3 and moved into the
third round.
McEnroe said, “They are trying to bring up
what happened two years ago and make compari
sons.”
He meant his stormy Wimbledon campaign of
1981, When he won the title but collected a series
of fines for incidents on court.
Two other Americans were involved in the day
of turmoil.
Hank Pfister was warned for throwing his
racket, got a penalty point for obscene language
* - and a game point for arguing and delaying play.
• Fritz Buehning demanded a change of umpire
. even before his match against Pat Cash of
: Australia had started. He won the argument and
•! the umpire was changed.
; Both Pfister and Buehning lost their matches.
* Three major upsets added to the day’s drama.
[ Mark Edmondson, the big-hitting Australian,
T knocked out eighth-seeded Vitas Gerulaitis 7-6,7-
; 5, 7-5.
- Pfister, the 15th seed, also got ousted at the end
1 • of his trouble-strewn match. Ricardo Acuna of
'! Chile beat him 3-6, 7-6, 7-6, 4-6, 6-4.
' In the women’s singles, Ida Budarova of
Czechoslovakia eliminated Pat Shriver, the fifth
seed, 2-6, 7-6, 6-4.
The exit of Gerulaitis and Pfister meant that at
' the end of the second round only nine of the 16
original men’s seeds were left.
McEnroe got mad at himself for double-fault
ing 10 times, and he got mad at umpire Malcolm
; Huntington and a linesman who called him four
; times for foot faults.
The first big eruption came after a double-fault
- in the ninth game. McEnroe brought his racket
r down on the grass and knocked out a divot.
He replaced the divot and smoothed it in with"
his shoe. Huntington waited until he had finished,
and then announced a warning for “abuse of
equipment.”
Umpire Alan Mills and supervisor Kurt Nielsen
: went on court at McEnroe’s request after the
; third foot fault. The three of them were involved
- in a long argument before the row subsided and
y the match was resumed.
' In the third set, Segarceanu, who packed a
* powerful backhand, passed McEnroe at the net.
McEnroe slammed a ball into the net and was
penalized for “abuse of ball.”
I Back came Mills and Nielsen, and this time
l McEnroe won the argument. The penalty point
' was rescinded.
C McEnroe told the umpire at one point, “If you
‘ are going to‘penalize me on technicalities, I’ll
walk off.”
He said afterward, “I was serious in what I and said, “I think players have a perfect right to
r said, in the sense that if they continue to make go up to the chair. When I queried calls today, I
» unfair decisions I will not continue in the match. \ was there no more than 15 seconds.”
****’**
John McEnroe returns a shot from Rumania’s Florin Segarceanu during their second round singles match
yesterday at Wimbledon. The match was marred by protests by McEnroe, but he eventually won the
match in four sets (4-6, 6-2, 6-3, 6-3).
“But it would have to go very far before I could
do something like that. I don’t want to become a
martyr at this stage of my career.”
McEnroe insisted he had done nothing wrong

He added, “Too much is made of these inci
dents, I think we should get on with it and try to
produce more good tennis.
“I am not playing my best tennis, and I hope to
improve. I want to concentrate on playing good
tennis, and that’s what the crowds come here to
see.”
Over 600 expected
at Junior Nationals
By RICK STOUCH
Collegian Sports Writer
Oyer 600 athletes will compete in
TAC’s annual U.S. Junior Men’s
and Women’s Track and Field
Championships this weekend at
the Nittany Lion Track.
The three-day meet, sponsored
by the The Athletics Congress,
begins today for men 19 and under
and women between 14 and 18. All
athletes must also meet standards
for their events in order to partici
pate in this competition.
The top two finishers in each
event will become part of a nation
al junior team that will compete
against national teams from other
countries next month.
The first opponent for the Junior
National Team will be Canada in
Sherbrooke, Quebec on July 26-27.
And in the other meet, Canada and
Italy will both provide competition
for the U.S. in New Britain, Ct.
from July 30-31.
Women’s Track Coach Gary
Schwartz said the team also rep
resents the United. States during
the Junior Pan Am games.
“The concept is a feeder system
for the Olympics,” Schwartz said.
“The idea is to promote the
emerging athlete who needs expe
rience.”
One such athlete is Sharon Ja
kubcik, a senior from Amphi High
School in Tucson, Arizona, who
competes in the heptathlon. The
17-year-old has been training for
two years and and only seriously
for two months, according to her
coach, Jeannie Zumwalt.
“Sharon is very talented but is
not as prepared as she could have
been for this meet because of her
lack of training,” Zumwalt said.
Jakubcik was the Arizona prep
100-meter hurdle champion this
year and is ranked ninth for her
age group in the 100-meter hurdles
by Track and Field News.
She is also Arizona’s high school
heptathlon champion, but has a
high of only 4,764 points compared
to 5,229 for another competitior,
Camille Harding of Kennewick,
Washington. Jakubcik attributes
the low score to the conditions at
the Arizona championship meet.
“The conditions were terrible,”
Jakubcik said. “It was a dirt track
at a high altitude with a strong
wind blowing. The track here (Nit
tany Lion Track) is beautiful.”

Because of the different condi
tions, Jakubcik plans to shoot for
5,200 points and a finish in the top
three.
“She has as good a chance as
anybody else,” Zumwalt said.
Another prominent athlete com-
The Daily Collegian

peting here is Clinton Davis from
Steel Valley High School in Mun
hall, Pa. For the past two years,
Davis has been the Pennsylvania
Interscholastic Athletic Associa
tion champion in the 100-, 200- and
400-meter runs.
Davis is entered here in the 400
and 200 meters, which he won at
the Pan Am Junior games in Vene
zuela last year.
But Davis finished second in the
200 at last year’s U.S. Junior Na
tionals to John Parker, who is
back to defend his title. The com
petition between Davis and Par
ker in the 200 is expected to be one
of the highlights of the meet.
Parker is one of five defending
champions at the meet. He will
seek to defend both his 100 and 200
meter championships.
Other defenders are: Mike Stahr
of Carmel, N.Y. in the 1,500-meter
run; Barry Walter of Ohio State in
the shotput; Scott Moon of Miami
University of Ohio in the javelin,
and Christine Curtin of Mepham
High School in New York in the 3,-
000 meters.
The American junior record
holder in the high jump will also be
here. James Lott of Refugio, Tex
as High School set the mark on
May 13 with a jump of 7-4% inches.
In addition, some Pennsylvania
residents and Penn State students
will participate in the meet.
Lynn Strauss of State College,
who attends North Carolina State
University, is the favorite in the
women’s 1,500 and 3,000-meter
runs.
Two Penn State runners sched
uled to compete this weekend are
Tom Shiffer of State College in the
800-meter run and John Evans in
the 10,000 meters. Long jumper
Rob Boulware, hammer throw
specialist Rob Curry discus/shot
putter Greg Reyner will represent
Penn State in the field events.
Other local women’s entries in
clude Connie Sweet of Sayre in the
shotput, Colleen Rosensteel qf
South Greensburg in the discus,
and Ambler’s Julia Solo and Tel
ford’s Melissa Moyer will take
part in the javelin competition.
Frances Childs of Sellersville,
Lisa Thompson of Graterford and
Sherri Papcsy of Kresgeville will
try to unseat Harding and Jakub
cik in the heptathalon.
Schwartz is proud to have this
Junior National Meet held at Penn
State, because it “gives us a
chance to show off. the school, the
area, and the facilities. And it will
also help us in recruiting.”
