Hall makes
INDIANAPOLIS I'm not
pleased very often. Just ask
any of my co-workers. I always
bitch and moan about something.
But watching Penn State and
Purdue battle for the Big Ten
women's basketball tournament
championship in the Hinkle Field
house was a real treat. I was actu
ally disappointed to see Tina
Nicholson ice the win with two free
throws with just under four sec
onds remaining. I was greedy. I
wanted five more minutes. I want
ed the game to go into overtime.
but it wasn't just the game that
made the tournament great. It was
also the fans. Most of the people
around State College are too
finicky, especially the Penn State
student body. I was ashamed to be
a Penn State student when I saw
the other schools' followings.
Granted, from State College it's a
long drive to Indianapolis, but even
our home crowds are not as fired
up as the crowds of Hinkle Field
house. These fans were so into the
tournament and outcome that they
stayed in town even after their
team lost to watch the finals.
The funniest were the lowa fans.
The Hawkeyes lost in the semifi
nals to Purdue, but their fans stuck
around to cheer against the Boil
ermakers. They joined in the cheer
"We are Penn State" and were loud
er than some of the Nittany and
Lady Lion home games.
Sorry Penn State fans, contrary
to what you might think, you defi
nitely are not the best fans in the
world. You are not even the best in
the Big Ten. I do think you are the
most stubborn. Although, I com
mend those Lady Lion fans who
were here.
The situation is not even isolated
to basketball, either. Some of you
won't even crawl out of bed to
watch a noon football game at
Beaver Stadium.

Amen
The aura surrounding Hinkle
Fieldhouse was incredible. Sitting
about 10 minutes outside of down
town Indianapolis on the campus of
Butler University. This fieldhouse
made you forget that sports in
America, both amateur and profes
sional, are self-destructing.
The old rafters, bleacher seating
at the top level, the huge windows
at the top of the ancient structure
this was where basketball was
meant to be played.
In a basketball world where
everyone is concerned with them
selves and money, holding the Big
Ten women's basketball tourna
ment at the aged fieldhouse stands
as a model to be imitated.
No where else do you see greed
and money as evident than in the
world of sports. Everyone has their
hand out, saying they need more
money. They are all concerned
about outstanding contracts and
top notch facilities.
I have a message for all of those
people there is no way the tour
nament could have been any better
if it was held at a newer arena,
such as the Bryce Jordan Center. If
it was, it would have probably
detracted from the excitement.
Heck, you know Hinkle Field
house had to be the right choice,
even the movie Hoosiers was
filmed here, at least the state
championship game. Gene Hack

Hinkle Fieldhouse is basketball
If the Big Ten men's teams are
considering a postseason tourna
ment like their women counter
parts, they would be wise to choose
a site at Hinkle.
For those of you who don't know
what the historic fieldhouse looks
like, picture Rec Hall with win
dows at the top and with another
tier of seating at the top.
Don't get me wrong, these new
arenas are nice, but they isolate the
fans from the game because of
seating arrangements. The fans are
too far away from the floor, at least
at the Jordan Center. That is why I
dislike it so much.
For as much money as the Uni
versity spent on it, you think it
could have been better for the fans.
For the players and coaches it is
great, but I think it takes away
from the fans, especially after
being in Rec Hall for so long.
Yeah, yeah, I can hear the propo
nents now, "Look at all the money
it yields."
That's great, but if the Universi
ty wanted the best of both worlds,
it would have modeled the Jordan
Center after Ohio State's St. John
Arena. There the seating runs
upward, not outward, creating a
much more intimate setting, and it
can still pack nearly 14,000 people
into it.
Ohio State is in the early stages
of constructing a new 19,000 seat
facility by the year 1998.
Bad idea
Then again, I'm a traditionalist. I
don't even want to see professional
baseball go to interleague play.
By the way, whatever happened
to Jimmy Chitwood?
