Netwomen despite minimal sleep By CHAD WASHINGTON Collegian Sports Writer Not even the early hours of dawn could keep the Lady Lions from coming up clutch in a tough situation. The Penn State women’s ten nis team finished third at the Intercollegiate Tennis Associa tion Team Tournament last weekend with crucial perfor mances on the final day and under tiring circumstances the team got just three hours of sleep. The Lady Lions beat George Washington 5-2 thanks to singles victories by their No. 1 player, junior Olga Novikova, and sophomore Kellie Murphy. “It was an excellent tourna ment,” Coach Sue Whiteside said. “Their performance showed the character of this team.” Penn State entered the tour nament by facing two tough teams on Friday, beating Boston College 5-2 and losing to Brown by the same score later that day. In the Boston College bat tle, Murphy bounced back from a sluggish first set to win her singles match. “I didn’t really get it together in the first set,” Murphy said. Senior Tricia Lehman won a long singles match that lasted three hours, but she and senior Shannon Etzweiler went on to lose their doubles match. “We played really well,” Lehman said of the match. “We SPRING 1996 SUBLET.

The Lady Lions’ lack of rest did not affect their play, as juniors Kim Nelson and Robyn Reagan won their singles matches in straight sets, and Reagan and junior Melissa Feeney won the doubles match. ' The lack of sleep was not apparent on the statistics sheet, but the players still had to over come it. “It was a little difficult, but we still played really well,” Lehman said. Coach Whiteside now turns her attention to the ECAC Championships on Oct. 20- 22. The Lady Lions will go into the tournament without the ser vices of Novikova, who is rest ing after her performance at the All-American Champi onships in Palisades, Calif. She lost her only match in that tour nament. With the performance of the team last weekend, Whiteside now feels confident about her team’s performance going into the ECACs. “This was an unbelievable performance,” she said. “This team has proven that they can rise to the occasion. I think that we are one of the best teams in the East.” Ticket AAAAA ALUMNUS NEEDS Mich- . igan (six) and Indiana (six) gen- Service eral admission 814-237-5204. HELP!

Collegian HUB TABLE is located in the HCIB basement by the Outing Club Board Lady ruggers ready for Midwest Championships By FRANK FERRIOLA Collegian Sports Writer It is finally time time for the Penn State women’s rugby club to defend the Midwest Championship title it has owned for the past three years. This weekend, 21 Lady Ruggers and one coach will be heading to Minneapolis for the two-day tour nament, with the winner gaining a berth to the Women’s National Rugby Championships held in the spring. The 14-team tournament, most from small colleges in Min nesota, will probably be dominated by the three biggest schools partic ipating Illinois, Michigan and Penn State. “The bigger schools tend to have a larger pool of talent to pick from,” Lady Ruggers Coach Peter Stickwomen retain By STEVE FEITL Collegian Sports Writer Lady Lion Coach Char Morett was shocked to learn of the field hockey team’s placement in the new NCAA rankings, which were announced on Tuesday. The team was in fourth place last week, but a loss to then-No. 16 Ohio State on Sunday seemed to indicate an impending drop for the Lady Lions. However, to Morett’s surprise, they are still in the No. 4 slot. Apparently the NCAA has recognized that the Lady Lions’ 10-6 record is impressive consider ing the quality of their opposition, Morett sug gested. “I think our tough schedule is the reason we are so high,” she said. “We certainly have beat en teams in the top 10.” The Penn State schedule has been tough from the first game of the season when they took on top-ranked North Carolina.

The smaller schools play amongst themselves, while the larger schools play mostly non-col legiate women’s clubs due to prox imity. This gives them the advan tage of playing stronger, more physical adversaries before enter ing a tournament with all smaller collegiate teams. Rebecca Belian, a senior eight-man for Michigan said her team added an extra club team to its schedule last weekend to get in one more good workout. “We played six women’s clubs over the semester and only three collegiate teams,” she said. “The games are just better for preparing for the Midwests.” Erin Leslie, a senior fly-half for No. 4 ranking despite loss to Ohio St. have proceeded to put up a 6-5 record against teams currently ranked in the top 20. In the meantime, the team itself has risen from a non ranking to a prominent spot in the top five. Their ranking has never concerned the young Lady Lions as they concentrated on improve ment. And while the rise through the ranks has been satisfying, they are aware of the road ahead. “We were down and out and probably written off,” Morett said. “We are fortunate for where we are sitting right now, but we have a very dangerous schedule remaining. We can’t at all think we’re out of the woods because we’re not.” The Lady Lions have taken on all three of the teams ranked ahead of them, but suffered loss es to each of them. While No. 1 Carolina and No. 3 Maryland are in the past, the team will get another shot at second-ranked lowa tomorrow.

Leslie said Illinois fared well this season while Michigan compiled a 3-5-1 record over the semester. But Belian said Michigan was much better than its record showed. Penn State went 2-3 basically because of the grueling games played against the more experienced women’s clubs. The records may have indi cated losing seasons, but the knowledge received from those losses is invaluable to the clubs. The one disadvantage for Illi nois, Michigan and Penn State is the lack of knowledge of the com petition.

The Daily Collegian Thursday, Oct. 19, 1995 “We kinda don’t know what to expect,” said Belian. “Especially PSU and Illinois, they’re both real ly great teams and we’re really nervous about (the tournament). Lady Rugger captain Alison Lutz said the team was a little nervous because Michigan was really tough two years ago and Illinois had a great team last year Penn State also ran into trouble with injuries over the last couple weeks in practice. Robin Hollen beck, the starting fullback, suf fered a broken finger and Melina Kuchinov, a prop head, fractured the bones surrounding her eye both are questionable. “We lose some experience, but we still have a very athletic team,” Steinberg said. “In the past, other teams have not lived up to our ath leticism.” unranked Michigan State, which gave the Lady Lions a run for their money on Oct. 8. The game played in East Lansing was decided in double overtime when the Lady Lions pulled out the 1- 0 win. Besides the competitiveness of their final games, they are also important as far as the conference title is concerned. With four Big Ten foes on the schedule, the Lady Lions’ ranking in the Big Ten tournament is at stake. Bringing momentum into the tournament, which Penn State will host Nov. 3-5, is impor tant for the Lady Lions. Yet with a 4-2 mark in the conference, the team is not overlooking the possibility of over taking lowa for the Big Ten regular-season crown. “We are not going to just hope to slide by in these games,” sophomore Meghann Spratt said. “We want to finish near the top, if not at the top of the Big Ten.” Classified Ad Rates No. Of One Two Three four Five AddWonal Words Issue Issues Issues Issues Issues issue 15 $3.25 $5.40 $7.00 $8.60 $10.20 $1.60 20 4.05 6.60 8.60 10,60 12.60 2.00 25 4.85 7.80 10.20 12.60 15.00 2.40 30 5.65 9.00 11.80 14.60 17.40 2.80 35 6.45 10.20 13.40 16.60 19.80 3.20 40 7.25 11.40 15.00 18.60 22.20 3.60 Each Add. five 0.80 1.20 1.60 2.00 2.40 0.40 Words Phone Amount Paid No. of Insertions Make Checks j payable to: Collegian Inc. | SO HAPPY!
