Dallas 13.5 over Phoenix
Take Phoenix. Dallas
looked sloppy in the
second half against the
Giants and Phoenix is
due. The Cardinals would
be a playoff contender
in any other division.
The Cowboys, however,
just won two important
intra-division games
and will look past
Pheonix.

Intramurals:
A Way Out
The Collegian
With all of the stress of class
schedules and deadlines,students
need an activity where they can
just let go and enjoy themselves,
a place to compete in sports that
they have and have not
previously participated in.
Luckily, we here at Penn State-
Behrend have Intramural
Coordinator, Robert Wittman,
and an array of nineteen different
sports to choose among. From
sports available on the varsity
level, such as tennis and
volleyball, to ping pong and
badminton, each sport gives a
person different opportunities to
either find their personal niche, or
just something which they can
enjoy.
This year, with the
introduction of the "All Year
Trophy Point System",
fraternities, sororities, residence
halls have the chance to compete
and receive a degree of pride and
comradery. The basic idea behind
this is that for each sport, a team
or individual can earn points
through fulfillment of their
schedule, per game victories,
placements into finals, runner-up,
and championships. At the end
IN THE BLEACHERS
by Steve Moore
“Look, I told you at the start of the season:
We win, I treat you to ice cream; we lose, I bring
you here ..."
of the year, each subdivision
winning team will receive a
trophy.
While meeting other students,
participants also compete with
the faculty and staff. This
enables us to see professors
outside of the classroom and
compete with them. Rob believes
that this will give some students
a better understanding of their
teachers on a more personal level.
Although most sports have had
high participation rates, Rob is
hoping that other sports pick up
the pace, specifically cross
country and most female events.
Even though female participation
is high in team sports, he would
like to see more involvement in
more individualized events which
are available.
Rob knows that the incentive,
trophies and sport champion T
shirts, will lure more students in,
he hopes that everyone will get a
better sense of teamwork and
sportsmanship in a social
atmosphere through the
intramural program.
With softball, tennis and golf
already in full swing, while cross
country, football, and billiards
right down the road, this years
intramural program looks to be
one of the best around.
