sports ady taxers worried about Lafayette, not rankings By CHRIS LODER Collegian Sports Writer It's something Head Coach Sue Scheetz has been trying to put into perpective for the past couple of weeks now; something Scheetz says is not the least bit important until the end of the season. But despite all the talk, the wom en's lacrosse team does have to live with the fact that it is the No. 1 team in the nation. It says so in the current coaches' poll. , But that doesn't mean Scheetz has to believe it. Instead of talking about what it's like to be the No. 1 team in the coun try, Scheetz and her band of talented Lady Lions are talking more like a team that's struggling for a winning record and on the edge of not making the playoffs. And it is a philosophy that seems to have worked so far. The women's lacrosse team has thus far conquered the most par amount of problems that plague No. 1 teams overconfidence and today it will try for win No. 10 against no losses when it hosts Lafayette at 3 p.m. at Lady Lion Field. "We really don't mention the No. 1 ranking," Scheetz said. "They're (the Lady Lions) very realistic they never take anyone for granted. Anything can happen on any given day. In lacrosse, momentum is very critical." Lafayette comes to Lady Lion Field sporting a 4-4 record, but has an unblemished 3-0 record against its East Coast Conference opponents. The Lady Leopards have a 13-12 win over Delaware to their credit, and leading the Lafayette attack is a freshman-sophomore tandem that is probably one of the best in the nation. Freshman Jenni Smith paces the Lady Leopards with 28 goals and four assists thus far in 1986, and last week, she gave Delaware, Rutgers and Ur sinus all headaches. In those three / fi'* Penn State catcher Wes Olsen, right, looks to the field after tagging a Rutgers baserunner out at the plate earlier this season at Beaver Field. The baseball team travels to Philadelphia today to meet Atlantic 10 foe Temple. Lions meet A-10 foe Temple By CHRISTINE BORN Collegian Sports Writer Heading into today's Atlantic 10 Conference games with Temple, the baseball team is still striving to play good baseball a concept which eluded the Lions on Sunday when Penn State dropped a doubleheader to Rider, 9-2 and 7-5. Today, the Lions take on conference foe Temple in Philadelphia. The (19-12-1) Owls belong to the Eastern Division of the Atlantic 10 and are in second place with a 6-2 conference record. Penn State has a 20-12 overall record and is 0-2 in conference play, placing the Lions third in the Western Division. The Lions hope to repeat Saturday's performances, in which they swept a doubleheader from West Ches ter, 8-1 and 6-0. A repeat of Sunday's play will not be welcome. Center fielder Mike Karstetter summarized Penn State's problems over the past few days. "We were lethargic (Sunday)," the senior said. "But that's just baseball. We have to have more of a team effort. Right now we have too many individuals taking too many individual steps. Teams that don't beat themselves are going to win and today, we did just that beat ourselves." Penn State only managed seven hits in the first game and five in the second. Rider pitchers also combined for five strike outs in the doubleheader. Against Temple, Head Coach Shorty Stoner said Penn State will have to "take charge and go out there and beat them." "Temple is a nice rivalry for us," he said. "We always have a tough time with them. It's the same situation as with Rider. You can't go down and give them anything. You just have to go out and play good baseball, good sound baseball and we are striving for that kind of consistency." games, the freshman punished the opposition with 14 goals and added one assist. For her effort, Smith was named the ECC Co-Player of the Week. Meanwhile, sophomore Tracy Wright follows Smith in the Lady Leopard attack with 12 goals and five assists for a total of 17 points. Wright has been sidelined with a broken nose, but she is expected to play today. `I don't think we can look past Lafayette. Last year, they gave us a very difficult time.' —Sue Scheetz, women's lacrosse coach "With Wright gone, Smith picked up the scoring," Scheetz said. "Those two pose a big threat." "They have a really strong attack, and they can score," added senior Maggy Dunphy. One area where Lafayette is strug gling is at goalie, where sophomore Liz O'Donoghue is finding the cage a rough place to work. She has allowed more goals than she's saved, and is allowing a little more than nine goals per game. In the last two games, however, O'Donoghue has given up six and eight goals, respectively. Penn State and Lafayette have met only once, in 1985, and it was the Lady Lions who came out on top, 11-7, in Easton. Marsha Florio powered the Lady Lions with four goals. The Lady Lions also must be wary of looking ahead at the schedule. Penn State will face its stiffest chal lenge since achieving the No. 1 rank ing on Thursday when it travels to the College park, Md., to face No. 3 Maryland. It is a game many see as a .......„,:,,..,,,,,,, 4 Karstetter said Penn State hopes to play better baseball, especially in the weeks to come, with the Atlantic 10 crown on the line. "Some days we look good and the next day we don't look good at all. We have to be more consistent and we can't beat ourselves," he said. Last year, Penn State split with Temple, winning the regular season game 8-3 but dropping a 13-5 decision to the Owls in the Atlantic 10 tournament. Karstetter reiterated the Lions' need to play funda mental baseball today and for the rest of the season. "We'll probably see (Temple) in the playoffs," he said. "Temple is good. There are no easy games anymore. (Sunday), we didn't have the defense or the offense to win and we have to remedy that for the rest of the season." The hitting department may be a good place to start looking for that consistency, as Lion hitters go from hot to cold as fast as a State College spring day. For Penn State, right fielder Phil Eskew is leading the Lion attack with a .940 average through 21 games. On Saturday, the senior went five for nine, including a double and triple, scoring one run and knocking in two. Karstetter also had a hot day at the plate. The senior went three for three in the first game and scored three runs. But against Rider, Karstetter came up short of that performance. He took the collar in game one, but went one for three in the nightcap, belting a solo homerun. While Penn State is riding a roller coaster at the plate, Temple hitters seem to have settled into a smooth ride. Rick Burns, Temple's designated hitter, leads the Owls in hitting with a .344 average. His sizzling pace was ignited last week when he went eight for 12 with three homeruns and 12 RBIs. Third base man Darren O'Neill is next in line, with a .333 average, five homeruns and 28 RBIs. Penn State's Beth Thompson, left, looks for an open teammate during Saturday's game against Rutgers at Lady Lion Field. The No. 1 Lady Lions put preview to the NCAA Championships, but Scheetz said the Lady Lions aren't looking that far ahead. "I don't think we can look past Lafayette," Scheetz said. "Last year, they gave us a very difficult time." Penn State is coming off an impres sive 15-5 win over Rutgers Saturday Collegian Photo / Dan Oleskl at Lady Lion Field. Dunphy paved the way with four goals, increasing her total to a team-high 31 for the season. For the second straight game, Tami Worley and Amanda Veal each scored the hat trick, while Beth Thompson pumped in two goals.

Flyers hope history repeats tonight By RALPH BERNSTEIN AP Sports Writer PHIILADELPHIA If history is a criteria, all the Philadelphia Fly ers have to do is show up to beat the New York Rangers tonight in the deciding game of their best-of-five first-round NHL Stanley Cup play off series. The Flyers beat the Rangers 7-1 Sunday night, tying the series 2-2 and forcing a fifth game. The win ner will meet the Washington Capi tals in the second round. The Rangers haven't won the fifth game of a five-game playoff series or the seventh game of a seven game series since 1928, when they beat the Montreal Maroons. Since then, they are 0-10 in those games in the playoffs. The Flyers aren't counting on a little-known statistic, but they do believe that the home-ice advan tage gives them a big edge. Philadelphia, counting its two playoff games last week against the Rangers, is 34-7-1 on Spectrum ice, best in the NHL this season. Flyers Coach Mike Keenan shrugged off the series-opening loss to the Rang ers. "Certainly fan support, partic ularly in a place like Philadelphia, where fans are so alive, so support ive of our team that it gives your team a great deal of energy and a great deal of confidence," he said. Might that lead to overconfi dence? "Not with this club," Keenan said. "We have to be confident playing in the Spectrum," he said.

They raked Vanbies brouck Sunday for five goals in less than 26 minutes. "When a team frustrated by a goaltender does a lot of scoring against him on a particular night, it creates a big change in attitude," Keenan said. "We finally executed the things we do well in getting to a goaltend er, subtle things but things that make a difference," he said. What things? "I prefer to keep that among ourselves," Keenan said. Keenan said he was a great be liever in momentum and that the Flyers owned it following Sunday night's rout. "If the officials don't become a factor, I like our chances. But you never know what's going to happen in one game of a playoff series," he said. Flyers' captain Dave Poulin agreed with Keenan about the home ice advantage. "Everybody is more comfortable in our own building. The fans can play a particular part in the out come, especially one game," Poulin said. "Just look at our record here. It indicates what it means. On the road, the hype builds up." Poulin said getting a quick goal on Vanbiesbrouck is important. "We have to establish right away that what we did (Sunday) is going to continue. Each game is dictated by what's established early in the game," he said. COLLEGIAN CLASSIFIED ADS motorcycle, home, personal be longings, hospitalization.

NBA teams gear up for 1986 title race By WILLIAM R. BARNARD AP Basketball Writer Now that the 943-game NBA regu lar season is over, the 16 playoff qualifiers start championship play this week, with the Boston Celtics and Los Angeles Lakers favored to meet in the finals for the third straight year. The best-of-five first-round series begins Thursday with Chicago at Boston, Detroit at Atlanta, Sacra mento at Houston and San Antonio at the Los Angeles Lakers. • The rest of the field plays Friday, with Washington at Philadelphia, Utah at Dallas, New Jersey at Mil waukee and Portland at Denver. "We have to concentrate a bit more, a great deal more," said Bos ton Coach K.C. Jones, whose team had the best record, 67-15. "We will not be lulled into thinking how great a team we are." "The standards have been so high for so long here that if you don't win the championship, the season's a failure," said reserve guard Jerry Sichting, who will be making his first playoff appearance for Boston. In five seasons at Indiana, he played one postseason minute, in 1980-81. Matchups in the first round of the NBA playoffs, with the team with a homecourt advantage in the five game series listed first' and each team's seeding position in paren theses: EASTERN CONFERENCE Boston (1) vs. Chicago (8) The Bulls, buoyed by the return of Mi chael Jordan after an absence of 64 games with a broken foot, won six times in a nine-game stretch to squeeze past Cleveland and get the The Daily Collegian Tuesday, April 15, 1986-11 last playoff spot in the Eastern Con ference. Jordan has some capable help in Orlando Woolridge and rookie ,Charles Oakley, but the Celtics' front line of Larry Bird, Robert Parish and Kevin McHale, with Bill Walton in reserve, is too big and strong to be stopped by the Bulls. Boston in three. Milwaukee (2) vs. New Jersey (7) The Bucks finished with the third best record in the NBA after Boston and the Los Angeles Lakers and won the Central Division for the sixth consecutive season. The Nets started well, with a 23-14 record, but the loss of Micheal Ray Richardson to drug abuse and center Darryl Dawkins to back problems left the team in tur moil, and they finished 16-29. Milwau kee has a strong nucleus of Sidney Moncrief, Terry Cummings and Paul Pressey and a group of role players behind them. New Jersey needs a strong series from center Mike Gminski, forward Buck Williams and guard Otis Birdsong to challenge the Bucks, and even that might not be enough. Milwaukee in three. Philadelphia (3) vs. Washington (6) The 76ers finished the season 6-1 without injured center Moses Malone, the only loss by one point at Landov er, Md., on the final day. Malone still is questionable for Friday's opener against the Bullets, which evens the odds considerably, and guard An drew Toney definitely is out after a succession of injuries.
