Brown gives new
meaning to 'faceoff'
NEW YORK (AP The New York
Rangers reacted angrily to a crush
ing blow to the head of All-Star for
ward Tomas Sandstrom by
Philadelphia's Dave Brown in Mon
day night's NHL game.
"If he wasn't trying for the face,
then there isn't a steer in Texas,"
Rangers General Manager Phil Espo
sito said. "He was trying for the face;
there's no doubt about it because if
he's going to cross-check, he could
have gotten him under the arms, on
the shoulders, on the bicep, but he
went right after the face."
Sandstrom was hospitalized over
night, but was expected to be re
leased yesterday.
"The hospital says he had no post
concussion condition and no frac
tured jaw," a Rangers' spokesman
said.
"I've been coaching for eight years
in the league now and I've seen many
things in hockey, but I've never seen
anything like that." New York Coach
Michel Bergeron said of the third
period incident during the game that
ended in a 2-2 tie. "I'm too angry to
say what I think about Brown now. If
he did the same thing on the street
tonight, he'd get 10 years in jail. He
didn't just try to hurt him he tried
to kill him."
Brown was assessed a match penal
ty for a deliberate attempt to injure
and was ejected from the game. NHL
spokesman Shannon Shay said match
penalties get an automatic review by
Brian O'Neill. executive vice presi

dent of the NHL, in Montreal, and a

days.
Bergeron said Brown should be
suspended for more than the auto
matic three games for a match penal
ty.
"When a player attempts to injure
someone like that, he should be sus
pended for a year," Bergeron said.
The incident happened at the 12:30
mark, after a play had stopped near
the Flyers' net. Sandstrom hit the ice
with a thud and had to be helped off.
"There's no room in the game of
hockey for things like that," Esposito
said on Madison Square Garden Net
work television. "If things like this
were allowed to be done constantly in
the game of hockey, then there's no
room in hockey for me. Then I want
out."
Esposito said he could retaliate the
next time the Rangers play the Fly
ers, but "I don't do things like that. If
we did that, then we're all barbarians
and two wrongs don't make a right.
The league better and I repeat,
they better come down on this guy
hard, because if they don't, then
there's no alternative than to take
matters into my own hands."
"I'm just trying to move him away
from the goal," Brown said. "If he
scores, and I'm the closest guy, then
it's my fault.
The penalty carries an automatic
three-game suspension, but some of
the Rangers felt three years wouldn't
be enough.

Netwomen challenge
Penn in Philadelphia
By ADAM T. GUSDORFF
Collegian Sports Writer
When we last saw Penn's Lady Quakers they were walking off the
courts at the Penn State Tennis Club, heads down, after a physically
and emotionally draining 5-4 loss at the hands of the Lady Lions. The
loss clinched a last-place finish for the visitors in the eight-team ITCA
Qualifier Tournament.
Revenge may very well be a factor when Penn State visits the Ivy
League school today in Philadelphia. But a strong return by Penn
State's top-ranked Claudia Karabedian may eliminate Penn's chances
altogether.
Karabedian will return to action this afternoon after being sidelined
by a wrist injury for two weeks. Whether she will return to the team's
top spot has yet to be determined, especially after the strong showings
by interim No. 1 Darnell Adams. With Karabedian and Adams both
healthy, Penn State could be considered a lock to win. But a wrench was
thrown into the gears when Adams developed tendonitis in her wrist.
"I've been playing for the past week," Karabedian said. "If Darnell's
in the lineup, and I'm in the lineup, it will be easier for us. "
Head Coach Jan Bortner was looking forward to having a healthy
lineup for Penn. In each match this season, he has had to use a lineup
minus a key player. Adams has been given permission to play by the
doctor, but she needs to see if the pain will be tolerable. Her injury
came at a time when Bortner was seeing great improvement in the
team's play.
"I think we made a dramatic improvement from last week (at the
ITCA tournament)," Bortner said. "Our doubles has vastly improved."
"We haven't been preparing for Penn as much as we have for the
ECACs this (coming) weekend," he said. "One of the keys last week
was that we won two of the three doubles matches. We'll have to do the
same (today). They're well rested. They haven't played since we
played them last week. We played a lot of matches at Old Dominion."
Lisa Thomas, whose victory last Sunday assured Penn State the win,
expects another tough match.
"If we play as well as we're capable of playing, we can do very well
againA them," Thomas said. "We will need a solid performance from
No. 1 to No. 6 in singles and No. I to No. 3 in doubles. Penn is definitely
going to be geared up.

Gov. Bob Casey and Lt. Gm. Mark Singel are
two politicians I believe in—politicians in the very best sense
of the word.
That's why I was proud when Mark Singel spoke
at my September reception at the Boal Mansion. Mark is
known for his commitment to education and to economic
development.
County governments are already in a state of
transition that is likely to continue, particularly in finding
ways to fund mandated programs in the Face of dwindling
state and federal support. Strong working relationships
with the state administration are more important than ever—
and that's an ability I can bring to the Centre County
Commissioners' office.
