Walter Bahr, soccer coach out for them tonight against Seton Hall. The Pirates from East Orange, N.J., are 9-1 this season, losing their only game 2-1 in overtime to LaSalle. The Pirates have an outstanding forward in Peter Matischak. He has scored 14 goals and has five assists on the season. Another offensive threat comes from Seton Hall's other forward, Pat Hughes, with nine goals and four assists. Seton Hall's defense is just as im pressive.

Although tonight's game is the first meeting between the two teams, Gor man has respect for the Pirates' ability. "Their coach, Ed Kelly, is from Ireland and he brought a lot of good players with him when he came to the United States," he said. "It should be a good game." Seton Hall is ranked second in the Mid-Atlantic Region But Penn State is not intimidated. Gorman said the Lions have to keep their spirits high and "keep plugging away." "They have to (believe)," he said. "If we continue doing things right, we will start winning. We have nine games left and we have the potential to go 9-0. We as coaches are not going to give up on them because we know they are a good team. We have not been outplayed and there is no way our luck can continue the way it has. "We have gotten better since the beginning of the season and we have had the opportunities to score." Scoring problems are about the only thing Penn State has to worry about. The team is healthy, with only a few nagging injuries. Against Lafayette, Bahr put Troy Snyder in at left wing. Gorman said the Lions can create more scoring chances when Snyder is moved for ward.

McWHIRTER Collegian Sports Writer The home court advantage. For most college sports teams, having your school's fans cheer for you as well as being accustomed to the facility and the psychological perks that go along with it are both highly desira ble. Quite often, it can be one of the contributing factors that decids the outcome of a contest. But the women's volleyball team hardly fits this mold. Of the 18 matches it has played this season, only four have been at home. Then again, with only two losses one of those at home the Lady Lions seem to do just fine on the road. Freshman middle blocker Bessy Ramirez said that away games don't bother the team. "I don't think playing games away is that difficult," Ramirez said. "We beat Colorado State on the road when we were supposed to be tired." Regardless of whether the Lady Lions are play ing home or away, Head Coach Russ Rose said that his 14th-ranked team is destined to lose another regular season match. "Whether it happens this weekend or not," Rose said, "it's going to happen. I think it's inevitable." I Sandwich or Hoagie I delivered with this coupon' ■ Exp.

"It's not at the level it needs to be at to win all your matches." Tonight at 7, the Lady Lions will be home against Rutgers. Tomorrow, Hofstra will visit Rec Hall at noon. These two begin a five-match home spree for the Lady Lions. This weekend, Penn State will have one built-in disadvantage. All-American Co-Captain Ellen Hensler will not play in either match. Hensler, who was last week's Atlantic 10 Player of the Week, will be back for next weekend's competition. Filling in at the setter position will be Judy McDonough. Although she is listed as a setter, she usually plays in the back row. Russ considers her to be one of the finest defensive specialists in the east. McDonough said that she is excited about the opportunity to play this weekend. "I don't think they (Rutgers) have a real strong team," McDonough said. "But if we don't p - ass well, we could have problems." Rose said that McDonough is a very solid volley ball player. "She (McDonough) is a fine volleyball player," he said.

STATE COLLEGE. PA• "If we don't play well, its not because of Judy McDonough. She has a very contagious enthu siasm for the game." Assistant Coach Lori Rose said that if the team doesn't hold its own, it could be upset. "If we don't play and pass well," she said, "any of those teams could beat us." Trying to point out the team's weaker points, Lori said that too many points go by too quickly. "This team's weakness is that they give three or four points up in a row, she said. "And before you know it, we are behind by several points." The next two weeks for the Lady Lions feature home matches against West Virginia, Duquesne and Kentucky. Russ sees some potential difficul ties for his team. "West Virginia poses a bigger threat than Du quesne," he said. "Only because it's Duquesne's first year in the conference and I don't see them beating us in their first year." With some of these next few matches against conference teams, Russ knows the importance of each one of them. "Conference play is where you qualify for the national championship, and that is what I care about," he said. * 4+ Indoor Soccer Club if 4+ Attention 4+ Team Captains and Individuals 4 r e 4+ Check Rosters 44' * and Pick up Schedules * 4+ at HUB Desk* 41/ 0184 4+ 4c. 44444 ****44 or. 444 44. ***** VISIT HARNER FARM -: .1-4111. _ , ~ , , ,, , , f,,, :, ~,,,,..,...: ,: s ., , - 0:i t ::,..-fv , . ow .. : 0-:.-.. 1 rqTmuuMIIIMIIIIL ,31.41, .. -., .4.,,, , 1, --4,.....-,..,--• 4.r...A Open Daily till 6 Intersection of West College & Whitehall Road Open Sunday 1-5 we personally deliver in 30 minutes or your pizza is FREE OPEN: Sun.-Thur. 4pm-12M Fri-Sat. 4pm-3am CALL 234.4743 Delivefy in 30 Minutes or FREE - FRESH INGREDIENTS PREPARED DAILY ON THE PREMISES INI111•111111 11111111•1111111 INN MI MMI INN MI INN INIII INN In INN MI NMI ill OM lIMS ®® orr- any 16" pizza with 3 or more toppings ONE COUPON PER PIZZA f ill)" A PIZZA ---, Your pbons _ 2 34- 4PIE OPEN: Sun.-Thurs..Bpm-12ty1 II I k. 2--.- Frl -Sat. raprn-Som I We reserve the sight lo limit our delivery oreo.
