    Gymwomen await
road trip to Oregon
By CAMERON McGAUGHY
Collegian Sports Writer
The bad news is the women's
gymnastics team is about to face
its toughest competition of the reg
ular season.
The good news is it is not at the
NCAA championships.
If it was, the Lady Lions would
be in trouble. Sophomore Joanna
Knox will be in a cast for four to
six weeks, recovering from a bro
ken foot, while freshman Missy
Leopoldus is tending to a sore
Achilles' tendon.
But Penn State will do its best to
topple the competition at the Shan
ico Inn-Vitational at 7 p.m. today in
Corvallis, Ore.
The Lady Lions (7-4) will be up
against No. 3 Michigan (10-3), No.
13 Minnesota (7-7), No. 16 Ohio
State (7-5), Division II Seattle
Pacific (2-9) and host Oregon State
(7-4), the No. 4 team in the nation.
"It's going to be a very high-cal
iber meet," Penn State coach Steve
Shephard said. "It's going to be like
Big Tens."
Shephard said Leopoldus will be
fine.
He wasn't going to use her last
Sunday in the Lady Lions' disap
pointing loss at New Hampshire,
but she had to compete two events
when Knox went down.
Already taking the spare spots
were Laurenn Cutshaw on bars,
Janae Whittaker on beam and Bea
Selz on floor and beam.
Vaulting is where the team will
be hurt most. Shephard is hoping

"We were disappointed at New
Hampshire," Shephard said. "We
had to count a few falls."
That won't help against the likes
of Michigan and Oregon State,
which just lost to a Pac-10 team at
home for the first time in school
history.
The Beavers, coming off a loss,
aren't expecting to lose again.
"That's the first time since I've
been here that we've lost three in a
row," said Oregon State coach Jim
Turpin, currently in his 11th sea
son. "But I don't feel bad because
they were all to teams in the top
10."
The Beavers sport a diverse
squad that uses 13 competitors a
meet. Their four seniors compete
in just one event each, and they
have seven returning All-Ameri
cans.
"We're a very different team
than almost any other team in the
country," Turpin said. "We have a
lot of no-name gymnasts, but put
them all together and we have a
better team."
If the Beavers do enter an all
around competitor an occur
rence Turpin calls rare it will be
sophomore Amy Slack.
For Penn State, Whittaker was
outstanding in her all-around debut
at New Hampshire, earning a 38.2
as Leopoldus rested.
"I feel like we have the three
best teams in the Big Ten coming
here this weekend," Turpin said.
"Michigan and Penn State are obvi-

Gymmen set to spring
west into competition
By CRAIG YETSKO
Collegian Sports Writer
After the Ohio State meet, the
Penn State men's gymnastics team
was weathering injuries and
attempting to change and improve
its routines. Two weeks later, the
Lions are refreshed and ready to
roll into the West next week.
The Lions will be competing
against BYU next Thursday and
travel to New Mexico on the fol
lowing Saturday. Both meets will
start at 7 p.m.
Lion coach Randy Jepson said
the two-week layoff has been help
ful for some of his ailing gymnasts
and a time to work on improving
routines. "We've been able to work
on new things," he said.
Junior J.M. Michel said the team
has been performing very well in
the gym and worked on little
details on each event. Michel said
he has been concentrating on
cleaning up his mistakes on paral
lel bars and rings. After trying a
new routine on rings during the
Ohio State meet, Michel has been
focusing the routine. "I've been
able to get that routine done and it
feels comfortable," he said.
After missing the last few meets,
junior Tom Ellefson will make the
trip next week and has a pretty
good chance to perform in the two
meets. Jepson said Ellefson may
compete in one or two meets.
He added that Ellefson has to
compete in order to get back on
track before the Big Ten Champi
onships and NCAA Regionals.

feels well rested and believes the
team will do well against their
Western opponents. "We definitely
feel that we can beat them," he
said. Jepson said BYU is fairly
strong and has the very solid all
around gymnast Darren Elg, who is
in the top three in the nation in all
around. He is also highly ranked in
the parallel bars and horizontal
bar. New Mexico may give the
Lions the most trouble. Jepson said
they are a formidable opponent and
an outstanding team. They did not
lose anybody to graduation last
year. New Mexico did not qualify
for Nationals last year which will
give them added incentive, accord
ing to Jepson.
"I'm sure they're going to push
for a good effort," he said. "They
have a monkey on their back."
