Lock Haven University* Stuobnt Newspaper Sigma Pi now a colony on campus by Jennifer Bowes Eagle Eye News Editor_ After recently receiving colony status, an inactive campus fraternity is working towards the goal of regaining their charter. The Sigma Pi fraternity has not been recognized by either the University or the national fraternity chapter since an offcampus incident occurred in 1988. After derecoginition, former fraternity members formed the Beta Omega Club. Tuesday evening, nearly two dozen current members of the Beta Omega Club became brothers of the Beta Omega Colony of Sigma Pi. As a colony, the members have one calendar year to achieve fraternity status and, in turn, regain their charter, according to Dr. Joseph Marron, dean of students and advisor of the All Greek Council. Members have been working hard at obtaining this status for a number of years, Marron said. They have completed what they had to do up until this point in order to become a colony, he added. "We're very excited that our goal of bringing Sigma Pi back has been realized," said Brian Price, the colony's president. "It's been a long, hard struggle to make it happen. All our current members as well as many of our alumni should feel very proud about themselves for staying dedicated to their goal." The colony is required to meet many University-mandated rules and regulations within the year's probationary period, including maintaining a minimum colony grade point average (GPA). We must go "above and beyond" the Greek average GPA, Price said. The colony must achieve a cumulative GPA of higher than 2.5, Price added. The colony must also raise $900 in philanthropy and maintain at least 25 members. Price said. The colony must function as a fraternity but be better than average and "excel in every aspect," he continued. Plans also exist for the colony to participate in a rigorous agenda of community service, fund-raising and recruitment projects. "We can't sit still and act like we've accomplished everything," Price said. "To reach our goal of reactivating the Sigma Pi charter and setting a standard for other fraternities to follow, we have to work even harder." Price said he was very pleased with pledge turnout and support. "At first we were nervous that people wouldn't know what Sigma Pi was here," he said. But every year the group has attracted enough support to be selective of the members taken in, he added.

Lou Fabian, director of planning and evaluation, discussed trends and data collected from four student and faculty surveys conducted over a three year period. Since 1967, the University has been participating in the American Council on Education's Freshman Survey, Fabian said. In this survey. University freshman indicated throughout the years that their top reasons for attending college were to attain a better job, to learn, to gain a general education, to prepare for graduate school, and News (pp:I-3) January's State System president salary raise boosts Tiers to more national levels. f.yee story page 2) to make money. These freshmen came to the University because of its academic reputation, low tuition rates, special programs, and financial aid, Fabian showed. The survey also showed that one out of two freshmen attending college are the first in their family to do so, he said. Between 500 and 600 respondents participate in the freshman surveys when they are administered, Fabian said. Faculty surveys showed that the University's faculty are slightly younger than the national average and that, given the chance to choose a career in academics again, nearly 90 percent of the faculty would. In his report. University President Craig Dean Willis announced that the spring enrollment includes 19 graduate students, which is the highest amount to be enrolled at the University to date.

Willis spoke of the excitement of the University's wrestling team beating the Penn State wrestling team for the first time in the twenty times that they have wrestled. He also acknowledged the women's swimming team's "totally winning season," in which they swam to a 8-1 record. Several proposed programs at the University are being prepared to be presented to the Board of Governors, Willis said. Included is a physicians assistant program, a masters in education program, and an applied geology program. Dr. Mary Pursell, vice president for academic affairs, spoke of the way in which students provide service to society. Currently, University students are participating in children's theatre performances in the local elementary schools, volunteering as story readers at the Ross Library, and working with advertising at the Clinton Op/Ed (p: 4) In case of an emergency, call 911.

The man wanted to learn to read his Bible, so after the student helped him to read, he or she bought the man a new large print Bible, Pursell said.

Owner, Bonnie Haines formerly of Velma's Pure Purrfection We Need Vou To be a Resident Assistant SSHE salary ranges increased by Masahiro Ueda Eagle Eye News Editor_ The State System of Higher Education (SSHE) Board of Governors approved new salary ranges for SSHE presidents last month. President Craig Dean Willis' salary of $97,308 will not be affected, but the salary range in the University's tier, Tier I, will range from $80,000 - $120,000. According to Scott Shewell, SSHE press secretary, this action was taken to match the SSHE presidents' salary to the national average level of other similar state universities. When the Board asked an outside research company to do a study of nationwide state university presidents' salaries, it became clear that Pennsylvania was paying SSHE presidents below a national average. The company then made a recommendation to the Board that this disparity should be corrected by raising the SSHE presidents' annual salary. Sigma Pi from page 1 nors for a price, she added. In all, 57 minor students were arrested at the time of the bust, Koch said. Koch said that in the early 1980s it was not uncommon for fraternities to serve alcohol at parties for a price. The liability insurance required by national chapters, in part, stopped this practice, she added. "At this point the University discontinued the charter from then-chartered Sigma Pi," Koch said. The fact that there was no central heating in the house and electric heaters were being used as a heat source also added to the decision, she said. Following the removal of the charter, a Sigma Pi alumni group attempted to purchase the West Main Street house from the national chapter but failed to raise the $16,000 asking-price, Koch said. As a result, the house was sold to a neighbor who had it demolished. Koch said the national chapter of the fraternity was not very supportive throughout the trouble years. More support has been reported since 1992, however. In early 1994, the club attempted to create a local fraternity called Delta Xi, as they did not think their efforts were going to "bear fruits," Price said. Later, Price said the University administration and the fraternity's national chapter was impressed by the work the group had done as an underground club, so the club decided to take the chance of regaining its charter. The colony is participating in Inter-Fraternity Council (IFC) and All-Greek Council meetings, although voting privileges will not occur until the fraternity is chartered. The relationship between the IFC and Sigma Pi has been "very welcoming," said Kevin Stone, resident director of High Hall and IFC advisor. Trustees from page 1 ^•iPU•\'-\-4>.: The Student Life Office will be accepting applications for the Fall 1995 semester. Applications will be available in the Student Life Office (Smith Hall) from 8:00am until 4:00pm February 13 - March 17. Completed applications must be submitted by 4:00pm on March 21. The Board approved a salary increase for most of the 14 SSHE university presidents and set a new salary range in Pennsylvania. According to the classification of SSHE universities, the University is in the Tier I category with two other SSHE universities, Mansfield and Cheyney. Tiers II and III are. made up of larger SSHE schools. The presidents of the three Tier I schools are not subject to an immediate raise because the salary rate of these presidents is' so close to the other similar state universities around the nation, Shewell said. Instead, these three presidents received the new salary range which allows for the possiblity of a future raise. This action allowed the Board to have an opportunity to be more flexible in closing the gap between national averages, according to Shewell "We are still below national averages in terms of paying the head of the universities," said Shewell. The last salary adjustment was adopted in 1993, according to Shewell. —^—— vancement announced that the Capital Campaign has received $2.3 million in pledges to date toward their $2.5 million goal. Summer camps have extended to other areas besides athletics, said Updegraff. Dance and theatre camps are being planned. An ad for the dance camp appears in a recent issue oi Backstage magazine. Dr. Dean Phelps, vice president for finance and administration, in talking of the grounds tour for the trustees and administration which preceded the Trustees meeting, spoke of both completed projects and these set to begin around campus. Bids on the Old Ulmer Hall project are set to open March 1, Phelps said. This project is a Shared Funding Project, which is the new name for the former "Jump Start" projects. The Department of General Services (DCS) will be managing the project and it is tentatively set to begin in mid-July, Phelps said.

Other offices would be able to take advantage of the service too, he said. Willis wished to publicly thank the Keystone Central School District (KSCD) and its superintendent. Dr. Thomas O'Rourke, for joining the University on the Hubert Jack Stadium track renovation project. The school district's $100,000 contribution helped to make it possible and it was appreciated by the University, Willis said. The Trustees made a resolution to grant emeriti status to the following recently retired professors: Dr. Renuka Biswas, Dr. John Chase, Gary Renzleman and Mary Renzleman. Resolutions were adopted in recognition of commendable service to the following recently retired staff: Margaret Colley, Harry Jones, Donald Ludlow, and Barbara Thiel. The Trustees also voted to recommend to the Board of Governors that Willis' contract be extended for one year, after an informal review session prior to the general session of the Trustees meeting. N E W S N E W S NEWS NEWS System Briefs Honors policy angers MU senior MILLERSVILLE - Kim Hampton will graduate with the same pomp and circumstance as a student with a 2.0 qualitypoint average (QPA) this May. That has angered Hampton, a senior Spanish major, who thought she would be graduating with honors. When she filled out her graduation application two weeks ago, she found out her transfer credits counted for QPA, which would lower her 3.34 QPA, making her chances of graduating with honors slim. Hampton said she was told by two Millersville University faculty members that her summer course and study abroad credits would transfer but would not count for her QPA. "I read the clause, 'Transferred credits will not affect QPA,'" Hampton said. "I have never heard of the statement, 'Unless being considered for graduation honors,' and neither have the seniors I have spoken with." Rachel Wywadis, associate registrar, said an MU senior must have a 3.35 QPA to be eligible to graduate with honors. Included in the criterion for graduating with honors are the transfer credits and the past QPA's to determine the level of honors, she said. "I was misinformed by two professors and now I am being penalized," Hampton said. -courtesy The Snapper 3 What was happening at LHU?

News from around the State System of Higher Education SHIPPENSBURG - On Jan. 20 around midnight, the Mid-Cumberland Valley Regional Police Department (MCVRPD) searched the Kappa Sigma fraternity house at 26 Middlespring Ave., finding drugs and assorted paraphernalia and arresting one fraternity member on several drug-related charges. A search warrant was obtained and the drugs and paraphenalia were confiscated from a room in the Kappa Sigma house. Kappa Sigma had been hosting a Friday night party when the police responded to a call complaining about the loud noise coming from the fraternity house. According to MCVRPD reports, offi cers observed approximately 500 people leaving the house upon their arrival, as well as what they believed to be drugs and paraphenalia being placed into the tile ceiling of one of the rooms. A Kappa Sigma brother, Christopher R Sabatino, of 26 Middle Spring Ave., was arrested for possession, possession with intent to deliver and possession of drug paraphenalia. After being taken before District Justice Donald Daihl, Sabatino was committed to the Cumberland County Prison in lieu of $25,000 bail "Kappa Sigma's national headquarters has been informed of the situation," Barry McClanahan, director of Greek affairs, said. NEWS NEWS Twenty years ago —Feb. 18,1975 With the announcement of a rebidding of the college food service contract for next year, the question arises as to what approximately 1500 Bentley Hall diners will be eating next year. Present food contractor ARA Food Services announced last week that within 90 days they will be ending their present contract with the college. A rebidding of the food contract means that the college administration must now determine what sp)ecifications it wants in next year's contract and open the bidding for that contract. Once the bids have been completed, selection of the lowest bid will be made in Harrisburg. The new contractor is expected to begin June 1. At present, the food service committee is attempting to determine what specifications should be included in the next contract. Fifteen years ago - Feb. 15,1980 If an artillery simulator went off in somebody's hands, "it would probably kill them." The light from it's explosion, especially at night, "could cause tempwrary blindness." Its explosive force is approximately equal to that of a "quarter of a stick of dynamite.' Those are the words of captain John Confer, of the National Guard and the Reserves, during mock war games. On Feb. 2, Lock Haven State College (LHSC) student Karl Delhaagen discovered an artillery simulator partially buried on the grounds around the Sigma Pi Fraternity House. Lock Haven police were notified and took the simulator. They contacted the National Guard. Captain Confer picked it up. Confer said that when he saw it, he was "hesitant" to carry it back to the Armory in his car. The safety device on the simulator- a wire and a cardboard cap— were missing. This wire and cap cover the string which ignites the explosive mechanism when it is pulled. Ten years ago - Feb. 19,1985 Students who went home for the weekend probably noticed a big change when they visited Bently Dining Hall for a meal yesterday. Eleven decorative canopies and signs were installed by the Custom Management Service on Saturday. The new installations include three large beverage canopies, three food line signs, and individual soup, cereal, and dessert banners. John Wilt, director of Custom Management Food Service, said, "The canopies and signs serve no functional purpose other than for direction. The other purpose to the new look is an aesthetic one." Five years ago — Feb. 16,1990 For four nights this week, volunteers have lit up phone lines in an effort to reach nearly 100 prospective University students. By phoning accepted applicants and answering their questions about the University, the helpers hope to aid in their college decision-making. All of the volunteers spend one night reviewing general phone courtesy and are given an information packet covering the most-asked questions. Many of them work in the Admissions Office and are familiar with many of the questions people ask. Jennifer Pistner, an Admissions' employee, said, "I know how important it is. I wish someone had called me and helped me with my decision." Another volunteer pointed out, "They feel a little more comfortable talking to students." It also saves the applicant from making unnecessary long-distance phone calls. Lost for words? Writing Center can help For many ~ perhaps most ~ college students, the worst time of the semester is that period just before a major class paper is due. Whether the subject is English Literature, Political Science, Business Writing or Biology, finishing that written assignment can be daunting, to say the least. It's one thing to learn about a subject in class, but quite another to organize newfound knowledge into a well-structured, readable essay. Thankfully, there is an answer to this predicament, at least at the University: the Writing Center. Located in Raub Hall Room 409, this facility offers an important tutoring service to the whole campus community. Designed primarily to assist students in writing and basic English skills ~ although it offers much more besides ~ it is open to students every weekday during the semester, and on at least two evenings a week. On any given day, the center is filled with students of all types, receiving advice and instruction on anything from structuring an argumentative essay to operating Word for Windows, an IBM word processing program. "It doesn't matter if you're an 'A' student or a ' C student; you can always learn something by coming here," said student I" tutor Tom Webb. "We think we can help everyone who asks for it." Carolyn Perry, an assistant professor in the English, journalism and philosophy department, was instrumental in founding the Writing Center in 1981 and has been running it ever since. "The faculty perceived a crisis in students' writing skills at the time, and this was one of the solutions sought by the University," she recalled. "Since then, I believe the center has developed into an essential campus service in its own right." Professor Perry, who also teaches classes in the English department, continues to supervise all aspects of Writing Center activities and services, working with her small band of tutors, all of whom are University students. "I've seen students come in as freshmen, and keep coming back through their college years, until they're coming to ask us to review their resumes and job application letters," she said. An essential part of the process, she believes, is to make students seeking help feel comfortable about coming here, and to gain their trust and respect. This is done by having tutors meet students one-on-one, in a friendly and informal atmosphere, to discuss their work. "Sometimes the most valuable help writ- Attention Sprint Breakers!

The idea is not to correct or grade students' efforts as would a teacher in class, but simply to talk over the work and suggest possible improvements. "We're not a proofreading agency, but we can help with that; in fact, we can help at any stage of the writing process," Perry added. The most satisfying aspect of this role for Perry, inevitably, is too see the positive impact the Writing Center has on individual students' writing and language skills. "It can't hurt your GPA to be able to write your papers more effectively," said tutor Dougie Bicket, referring to the Writing Center's motto, "We don't guarantee you an 'A,' but the paper you leave with will be better than the one you came in with." Perry hopes that the Writing Center will continue to attract students who want to improve their command of written English. With free instruction, and access to computers, laser printers and electric typewriters, the Writing Center adds up to an invaluable service available to everyone who wants to use it. t Entire month of February Includes: Split of C h a m p a g n e 2 1 y e a r s a n d over)^ Long S t e m Rose, Chocolate^ a n d Hearty Breakfast. Many Rooms with Private Baths 4 Eagle Eye opinion I editorial Friday, February 17,1995 Emergency? Call 911 Last weekend there was a medical emergency on this campus. The student who called in the problem, instead of dialing 911, called the communications center. (Before 911, an emergency was to be reported to the communications center.) Yes, for those who are unaware, Lock Haven does have 911 service. If a medical emergency is serious enough, as this one was, 911 should be dialed, according to Gertrude Leathers, quality assurance supervisor for the Clinton County Communications Center. It is important to call 911 in a emergency because the response is much quicker. If a person dials 911 and cannot communicate what the problem is, the call can be traced and emergency service can be there in no time. On campus students must remember to dial 9 before the 911. Students should be using 911 in an emergency and calling 748-2936 in a non-emergency situation. On campus students should call Law Enforcement. Calling 911 in a emergency situation could mean the difference between life and death. Remember this the next time you have an emergency. April D.

Th'e the features section Upcoming Events Professor travels to Russia, reflects on economic status "PVT. Wars" to by Carrie McCully Eagle Eye Features Reporter Edward Chatterton, professor of economics, traveled to Kemerovo State University in Russia for two weeks last May to strenghten relations between them and \jocV. Haven University. While in Russia, Chatterton gave a speech to students, faculty and state officals about economic development in Russia. Chatterton spoke about how Russia needed to improve their economic situation through foreign investment. He said that Russia has the potential to be a very rich country which would prove great for foreign investment. The only problem they have is many problems such as different types of pollution and high taxes that discourage foreign investment. "Communism has hurt their economic development," said Chatterton. The transformation of Russia is so difficult because of the many changes that occur almost daily. Their banking system is failing and some people are even starving Edward Chatterton, professor of economics, traveled to a University in Russia in order to strength ties between them and LHU (photo by Karl McCollester). in different parts of the country. Chatterton is worried about Russia's economic future. "I hope they embrace free markets while avoiding some of the pitfalls that we've had in the past," he said. "The future of Russia depends greatly on what happens in the next few years. Once the government becomes more stable, more economic growth will occur," explains Chatterton. Government officals were so impressed they invited Chatterton to speak at a conference of western economists in September. be waged at University The University Players are presenting the play PVT.

THe the features Lombardo leaves behind old drum style... Grip Inc. has new sound by Matt Walsh Eagle Eye Music Critic_ The only thing which really disappoints me about this disc is that lJ3mbardo has changed his drum style almost completely. Gone are the insane drum fills that were al- This is a fantastic disc, and I highly recommend it when it finally comes out at the end of this month (it's not out yet, so don't go running to the store right now). Definitely one of the biggest headlines in the past few years regarding alternative and heavy music was the announcement that Dave Lombardo, arguably considered by many to be the best drummer in the world, announced he was leaving the band. Slayer he started over 12 years ago. One of the most anticipated albums in 1994 was Slayer's Divine Intervention, and everyone was wondering if new drummer Paul Bostaph could fill Lximbardo's shoes. Despite the fact that Bostaph has done an incredible job so far, it is obvious there is something missing from the band. Well, 1995 has rolled around, and it's time to hear the other side of this musical coin, as one of this year's most anticipated albums is from Dave Lombardo's new band, Grip Inc. The debut album is called Power Of Inner Strength (Metal Blade Records).

Yes, everyone will be getting nice and tan down in Florida while I will be working to pay off my steep bills on the Master Card. Oh, enough about that! I'm really sure you, the readers, want to hear my self-pity. It's just that everyone seems to have awesome spring break plans. I realize I am only 18 and have plenty more spring breaks coming, so I'll just switch the subject to something else I love to talk about -- men. My mother and I had this huge fight around this time last year. I had just broken up with my boyfriend, and my mother tried to console me (the key word is tried) by saying, "Don't worry Tina. You will find the perfect man in college. That's what college is at>out ~ trying to find someone you want to spend your whole life with." I guess you could see why I was upset. What my mother was essentially telling me' is that I took geometry, biology, and the SATs just to prepare myself to find a man. If college is about man hunting, then women should take courses such as flirting 101, introduction to manicuring, gourmet cooking, a social seminar on different hair and facial products and their influence in society, and family planning ~ sex education. Now ladies, don't start getting upset. I am just being sarcastic. My mother didn't realize I came to college, not to find my soulmate but to educate and inspire my own soul. I know of people who seem to think guys are the only thing to live for in this world, and that upsets me. I don't understand why some women only ' center their lives on their men. They only want to be with their men, think about their men, or do things for their men. Don't these people see how boring their lives are when they are this one-sided? If they have no outside interests except their men, what are they going to do if (God forbid!) their men become nonexistent? Listen, I understand about quality time and all of that. I am a hopeless romantic too when 1 want to be, but some people push it a little too far. I just don't like seeing young women spending thousands of dollars a year just to find a husband. That's a pretty expensive dating service if you ask me. 1 just want all of the young ladies that have this opportunity to be taking advantage of all the facilities they have while they are in college. It's a great time to explore and find oneself, and I hope most women find alternatives to having a ring on their finger and being barefoot and pregnant while they are still young. -Tina Tysarczyk 8 Eagte Eye The Friday, Febniary 17,1995 Side Lighter. the Jeatures section More severe punishments, less repeat offenders Throughout my life I have been accused of many things; some of them true and some of them not so true. In all my life, however, I have never been accused of being boring. I believe this to be true for the simple reason that I always speak my mind. Frankly, some of the comments even surprise me. This week is no exception. Last week I visited the extreme of sappiness. This week we are traveling to the opposite end of the spectrum, where intolerance and harshness reign. In today's society crime can be found anywhere. From "Harvard-on-the-Hill" to capitol Hill, illegal activities run rampant. Why is it in oiir society that crime is so prevalent? Like so many things, the answer to this question is simple. The steps to solving the problem are not. The reason our society is caught in a tailspin of crime is for the simple fact that we have no shame. Stop and think for one minute about some of the ref>orts you see in the media. For example, let us just turn on the imaginary television set next to my computer here in Akeley. "Today on Geraldo: Pedophiles in Pantyhose and the women who love them." "I saw that on Sally last week. Change the channel." Click! "Tonight on Dateline NBC: President Clinton implicated in another sex scandal and Stone Phillips' seven steps to a good hair day." "Oh cool! I'll definitely have to watch that. Stone Phillips has such perfect hair." Next channel. Click! "With us tonight is Washington D.C. mayor Marion Barry, who incidentally is a former crackhead. So, Mayor Barry, what do you think of the Major League Baseball strike?" "Hey, this should be good. Maybe I'll get a snack first, though." No sense of shock at all. There are few things in this society which outrage us anymore. I have to ask myself why that is, and I keep coming up with the same conclusion. Our intolerance is sadly misplaced. What do I mean by that? While we have been very adamant in our intolerance of acts such as smoking in public settings. killing seals for their fur, passing out condoms to high school kids, and pornography, we have been seriously lacking in our intolerance of criminal acts like rape and murder. Crime is rampant because our justice system is too... nice. So what should be done about it? Fair question, and the answer is even fairer — I don't know. The answer to the problem is multi-faceted, so I can only tell you what I would like to see. How to achieve it is a bigger issue. I would like to see harsher punishment that actually fits the crime — punishments that bring a sense of shame, of actual guilt, to a convicted criminal. Some examples? I would only be too happy. Drunken Driving: First offense ~ a hefty fine and a brightly colored license plate to mark the individual as an offender. Some states are already exploring this option. I like it. Second offense ~ you lose your license ~ permanently. Vandalism: The individual would definitely have to pay a fine equal to the amount of damage, but is that enough? What about having to repair the damage? I like the implications of that. It not only brings a sense of justice, but it saves the taxpayers some money since the offender wouldn't be paid for the work. As.saults: Two words — public caning. I like the idea. Give the individual a sense of the pain and humiliation he inflicted on another. I would wager there would be few repeat offenders. Murder: Life imprisonment is not enough. It seems to me that when people murder another member of the community, they should not be sent to a place where they will receive three meals a day and a bed in which to sleep, be trained for the work force, and [>ossibly receive an education on par with my own. Not only that, but it is all at the expense of the taxpayer — no cost to the criminal! Sign me up. In the case of murder, capitol punishment is the way to go. Guaranteed there would not be repeat offenders. With stricter laws and increased public awareness of the consequences associated with a crime, I would argue that the crime rate in this nation would decrease dramatically. I know if I saw an individual being caned, I would think long and hard before I dragged my neighbor down three flights of stairs simply because he was playing his music too loud. I'll take it one step further and really step into the realm of controversy. Make the execution of convicted murderers ojjen to the public. Pay-per-view executions — it could work. When people are made aware that there is indeed a harsh price to pay for their actions, I would argue that one is less, likely to commit a criminal act. And that is better for all of us. - Jeff Reese We've Made It Easier For The Class Of '95 To Drive The Class Of '95.

Fitzgerald tired and got caught on the ropes late in the second round with Forry scoring to the body. Fitzgerald failed to answer the bell for the third round forcing the referee to award the bout to the Bald Eagle boxer. Two of LHU's top boxers lost close decisions. Todd Stiner, 147, the 1994 National (NCBA) runner-up was upset by PSU's Mike Francis, 3-0. Francis dropped down from his usual 156 pound division to win the close contest.

In the finals, however, she shifted gears. Parkes zipped over the hurdles in a time of 8.33 seconds, two-tenths of a second ahead of the rest of the field. The Bus Stops Here vVi? looked like the Bald Eagle captain had the bout under control. Francis, however, scored with several combinations to the body in the final 30 seconds, keeping Stiner on the defensive, to win the narrow victory. It was Stiner's fir.st loss this season after winning three. He drops he career record to 11 -3. Stiner will box UN-Reno's rugged Waylan Lowery on Saturday night in a featured bout.

Friday, February 17,1995 Eagle Eye 11 They call us Mat-Town... Grapplers look to force another upset Wrestling by Jason Hagan Eagle Eye Sports Editor_ After a week of well needed rest. Head Coach Carl Poff leads the Mat-Town Grapplers of LHU into another battle tonight versus another top NCAA ranked team. The stage is set for the Bald Eagles and the Golden Eagles of Clarion (9-3) to meet in LHU's Thomas Field Hou.se tonight at 7:30. The Golden Eagles will be bringing four top 20 NCAA ranked wrestlers and a team ranking of tenth just behind Edinboro. LHU is coming off of two historical victories. The first, last Thursday was a first time win over number 13 ranked Penn State (20-14), which Coach Poff called "the greatest win of my coaching career." The second was also a first time win over number 18 ranked Lehigh University by a score of 17-14. Both wins launched the Bald Eagles up from their modest rank 20 up to 16 this week, which Poff had felt should have been higher. Poff is very confident that a win over Clarion tonight would put the team in the top 10 nationally. He emphasized his pride in the team by mentioning that he was expecting the team to win only half of its matches. He said the reason success has come to the team was due to excellent senior leadership. Many of the team members believe their success has come from not only the Who^s on Deck?

Several team members feel that fan turnout gets them psyched-up for their matches. "We're going into one of our last matches as an 11 and three team," said Poff, "I've never been prouder of a team." Coach Poff said that he feels his team looks favored on paper. He did say that the big matches to watch would be at 118 and 134 pounds, and heavyweight. At 118 LHU co-captain Brad Silimperi will attempt to seize the day against Clarion's, Sheldon Thomas who ranks second nationally. At 134, LHU's Brian Leitzel, who registered a pin versus PSU, will take on Tom Tomeo who holds the third spot in the national rankings. Then at heavyweight, Poff expects to see Joe Eaton go tough with Clarion's, Dan Payne, who is the third ranked heavyweight in the country. Eaton is coming off of two tough losses to ranked wrestlers, one of which was a decision to the defending National Champion, Kerry McKoy of PSU. The winner of this bout will own the second place sf)ot in the Eastern Wrestling League (EWL) standings under Edinboro, which both teams had lost to earlier this season. TTiey have one match next week hosting EWL rival Bloomsburg. They then begin their post-season in the EWL tournament at West Virginia University the weekend of March 4 and 5.

Men's Hoops by Kevin Kovac Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ Suddenly, the young University men's basketball team has gotten itself into a wonderful run of synchronization. With their convincing 104-87 victory over Shippen.sburg in Thomas Field House Wednesday night, the emerging Bald Eagles maintained a perfect record over the past two weeks. They won for the fourth time in-a-row, a streak that is their longest of the season. The Shippensburgh shellacking, along with LHU's narrow 63-62 triumph Saturday night at Clarion, helped boost the confidence of coach Dave Blank's boys to its highest level since practice began October 15. Lock Haven's overall record creeped three games above the .500 mark, at 13-10, and their PSAC-West log improved to 6-3. That last figure is an important — and exciting — one for the Bald Eagles. At 6-3 in conference competition, they currently sit third in the division and still have flickering hopes of grabbing one of the two post-season playoff spots. Lock Haven certainly has a chance to sneak into the PSAC playoffs for the first time in years if its players remain at last week's playing level. Quality contributions were made by a number of Bald Eagles. Not surprisingly, sophomore guard Mike Shue continued to set the team's standard.

Lady Eagles lose two in a row by Troy Derkos Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ The schedule has not been very kind to the Lady Eagles basketball team (7-16 overall and 2-7 in the PSAC-West) the last two weeks. The last four games the Lady Eagles have played have come against teams with over 14 wins. Only two games were scheduled for this week. But both contests were against the top two teams in the PSAC-West. The Lady Eagles lost both games. Saturday's loss was at the hands of Clarion University who sports a solid 14-8 overall record, and an even more solid 7-2 PSAC-West record. The game was out of reach early and the Lady Eagles were sent packing, 81-53. Wednesday night the Lady Eagles came back to the confines of the Thomas Field House. Ladies' Hoops Unfortunately, they would need more than just home court advantage since they were taking on Shippensburg who came in at 17-5 overall and 6-3 PSAC-West. The Lady Eagles showed obvious spark early and kept it close for nearly 13 minutes. A Missy Carlson three-ball put them on top at 18-17. But, then the floor dropped out from below. Ship took over and pounded out a 15-1 run. it was "brick-city" for the Lady Eagles and smooth sailing for Shippensburg. The shots simply would not fall for the Lady Eagles. The 26 percent first half shooting would attest to that. Ship clearly had the advantage inside. Three of its top guns stood over 6 foot 1 inch tall. Therefore, it should come as no surprise that they tallied 32 points. "The aggressiveness and size inside really hurt us," Head Coach Frank Scarfo said. Ship took a 14 point lead heading into the half. At that point it was basically in the books. The closest LHU would get after the half was 11. The final score read Shippensburg 85, Lock Haven 57. Even optimists would have difficulty finding something positive on this evening. "They're a really good team, who made us look bad,"Coach Scarfo said. Steph Troyan had a team-high 14 and Shannon Bowers finished with 13. The Lady Eagles will try to break the four game curse Saturday at 1 p.m. when California visits Thomas Field House. Wednesday they travel to Indiana, Pa. to take on division rival lUP.
