BSGP is comprised of student government presidents from around the 14 State System of Higher Education (SSHE) universities. The number one subject which the board discussed was the ongoing negotiations between the Association of Pennsylvania State College and University Faculty (APSCUF), and SSHE. Brenda Foster, assistant to the chancellor and liaison to BSGP, gave a report from the state. In the report she stated that Governor Tom Ridge supports the choice for students to go to any school in the state and get the same financial support that they would if they went to a public school like those in the SSHE system. He is in the process of tak- ing more money out of SSHP^and putting it into the Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Association (PHEAA). Foster also reported that those who have questions concerning the negotiations should direct them to the Office of the Chancellor at 717-720-4150. Students can also log on to the SSHE World Wide Web page at www.sshechan.edu/sshe.html, or they can reach APSCUF at www.apscuf.com. BSGP has also decided to take a plan of action. They decided that each school should make a student bill of rights which will state that the students have a right to receive their education no matter what happens with the contract negotiations. BSGP decided it would be best if they did not take a side since they represent all 14 state schools. The board also wants to sponsor a letter writing campaign where students would right letters by hand and by E-mail. Foster stated that all students should call their Campus Corner • •An iM. # .... s.-v;.^..;-.fea,..^;>stji;^—tt-.

She also stated that there are good times and bad times to call your government officials. The best time to call the Governor is January and February because that is when the budget is being planned. She said that representatives should also be contacted in January and February because that is when they are voting on the budget. Students can contact local representative Mike Hanna at 102B East Wing, Harrisburg, 717-772-2283, or local senator J. Doyle Corman, 9 East Wing, Harrisburg, 717-787-1377. One enthusiastic idea was to have a campus-wide rally that would occur simultaneously with rallies that were going on in the other 14 schools. Jason Bozzone, student government president from Kutztown University stated that many professors at Kutztown decided to wear black arm bands. They did this on the same day that Kutztown had their big visitation day, and prosf)ective students and parents were a little uncomfortable with the whole situation. One student government president raised the concern that the schools and the system are going to implement distance education as a substitute for real professors. However the board pointed out that distance education, right now, costs too much to run. One idea that was brought up to solve the dispute was binding arbitration. That way, compromises would have to be made and the situation would be resolved immediately. The state's request that faculty be required to travel within the state system by order of the President of the University has been taken off of the table by the state. The board will meet in Harrisburg in February and then at the University in April. This will be the first time in many years that it will take place here. Flint stated, "We're excited about hosting it.'' SCC info desk to sell condoms by Amy Satkofsky Eagle Eye News Editor_ Due to substantial student requests, condoms are now available at the Student Cooperative Council (SCC) information desk, located in the Parsons Union Building (PUB). At the SCC meeting held last night, Kat Ottomanelli, PUB administrator, announced that there has been a large amount of student requests for the SCC information desk to sell condoms. As the SCC is here to serve the students, condoms went on sale at the desk earlier this week. The price of the condoms is $2.85 for a three-pack of non-lubricated condoms and $2.99 for a pack of lubricated condoms. Students can purchase the condoms during desk hours which are 4 p.m. to 12 a.m. Monday through Friday, and 8 a.m. until midnight on weekends. However the desk will close for Thanksgiving Break at 4 p.m. on Nov. 26, and will reopen on Dec. 1 at noon. The issue of arming University Law Enforcement officials was also discussed at the meeting. The SCC resolution stating: "In the best interest of constituents of the SCC this is a resolution in support of carrying firearms by Lock Haven University Law Enforcement," was opposed in a senator vote. Although the resolution was opposed, the SCC is still forming a campus safety committee. The purpose of the committee will be to look at security and safety problems on campus and attempt to find resolutions. Any University student can join the committee. For information contact Ottomanelli at 893-2183.

Editor in Chief, Heather Lee Longo; News editors. Amy Satkofsky and Amanda Gutshall; Sports Editors, Teresa Markle and Tori Mello; Copy Editor, Katrina Heim; and Eagle Eye Reporter, Brian Ploskina, at 11:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 21, 1996 in the Eagle Eye office where there are now only FIVE applications to fill 10 open positions. The seven of us are here, not out partying, studying or home sleeping, because we care about this paper and we care about getting it out there to YOU, the student body, for your reading pleasure on Friday mornings. So, what happens come the spring when we have five new staff members for 10 positions and all of YOU are there on a Friday morning wondering why the Eagle Eye is nonexistent? Well, think about it. Wondering where the Eagle Eye is every Friday in the Spring is not going to matter because with only five applications for 10 positions, the answer to where the Eagle Eye is, will be a simple one. We that are here right now will not be pleased come next semester if what we work so hard for now falls apart due to lack of interest. We can hear it now: "Where is the Eagle EyeT'; "Where are my personals?"; "Who got cited for public drunkenness this week?"; "Why didn't anyone write about our game?" Well, keep asking those question because if at least five more of YOU do not turn in applications today, we, the Eagle Eye staff, will not be giving YOU those things — or everything else we work so hard to get to YOU ~ each Friday such as the news, features, sports and opinion sections of this newspaper. Imagine all the news and events YOU would have missed if there had been no Eagle Eye this semester. For instance, this semester alone has brought you information about the contract negotiations going on between APSCUF and SSHE, the Radon scare in Bentley, the issue of arming Law Enforcement, and the number of fall sports teams who won PSAC titles. Where would YOU be on the weekend without movie reviews and information about cultural events on campus and in town? In order to get the most out of your college education at Lock Haven University, we as students need to get involved in campus life. The Eagle Eye brings you the information that YOU need to get involved. Help us keep this paper going for YOU and everyone else. Turn to page four and fill out an application.

N ews News from around the State System of Higher Education T^larion utilizes distance learning CLARION - Distance learning is allowing students at the Clarion and t^ Venango campuses of Qarion University 'of Pennsylvania to take the same course. 'Several times each week, students gather in a Becker Hall classroom for a real estate fundamentals course taught by Dr. Jerry Belloit, professor of finance. At the same time as this class, four more students assemble in a classroom at the Venango Campus in Oil City to take the same course from the same professor. Belloit can teach this class through a tel<^i(jsion hookup between the two cam-; puses. The interactive link to the Oil City classroom enables students to respond and participate in the sam6 fashion they would if they were in the same classroom as the"^ professor. Three cameras keep track of Belloit's activity. One is always placed on the professor* The second one is on the students. The third is on Belloit's display of his lecture notes, an aspect that is technologically enhanced. Belloit said of the program, "It requires me to be more deliberate because I have to think about the camera, but everyone seems to be pleased with the program." ' ' - courtesy The Clarion Call Edinboro student assaulted EDINBORO - Two Edinboro University students were assaulted at about 1:50 a.m. last Friday in an altercation in a neighborhood parking lot of the Copper Coin Lounge, leaving 22-year-old Matt Norton with an eight inch cut on his ; neck. Edinboro police officer Roy Luke said that Norton and Derick Fales, 22, of sSaegertown, were involved in an argument inside the bar with two males. * The victims were then confronted by the suspects in the parking lot of the Bannister Chiropractic Center and were' struck with glass bottles. Norton was released from Hamot Medical Center Friday following treatment. Fales suffered minor injuries. ' Luke said that police do not believe \ the suspects are Edinboro University students. "He (Norton) could have been seriously I injiired,** Luke said, noting that Norton . was'cut with a piece of glass in an area that CQuld have led to death. - courtesy The Spectator Friday, November 22, 1996 Eagle Eye 3 A look into the past through the Eagle Eye... ? What was happening at LHU? Twenty years ago • Nov. 23, 1976 An ad hoc committee on student public safety is now being organized in conjunction with the Student Cooperative Council (SCC). Organization of this committee stems from the low level of public safety on campus, according to Mike Buckwash, chairman of the committee. No goals have been established yet says Buckwash. However, one of the main problems is with fire safety. Sloan Fine Arts Center, to Buckwash's knowledge, is the only building on campus with a direct fire telegraph. Buckwash stated that each dorm and building should have one. In front of North and McEntire Halls students are creating a fire hazard, remarked Buckwash, by parking their cars in the no parking zones. This blocks the entrances that fire trucks would use in the event of an emergency. Another dorm hazard is that the stairwell doors are being left open and if a fire were to occur the doors would draw the fire from floor to floor. Buckwash also noted that the speed of traffic along Fairview Street is too fast and attempts to lower the speed limit are going to be made. Ten years ago-Nov. 21, 1986 "I care about this town and I wanted to change those things that were bad," said Scott Smith, business management major and city council member here in Lock Haven. Smith, only 21, is the youngest city council member statewide, and already he has served almost a full year as a city politician. Smith, who has lived in Lock Haven all of his life, says that he decided to run because he saw things that were wrong and .he hoped to make them better. Smith said that there was some adjustment to being so young and being on the city council. The second youngest member was over 40, so he felt he was by himself. Smith ran on the Democratic ticket last year. He worked hard on campaigning by purchasing radio time, going door to door, and by handing out pamphlets. "I promised to visit all the people in Lock Haven and I got to about 95% of them," he said. Smith said it paid off since he won one of the three seats available by 10 votes. Mayor Diann Stuempfle said that Smith is doing as good a job as possible. Five years ago-Nov. 22,1986 Bald Eagle Creek and the Susquehanna River may be contaminated, according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The EPA held a public meeting and four speakers addressed the issue of the carcinogenic waste at the former Drake Chemical site and the risks of implementing an incinerator. The site on East Park Street had been the location of hazardous chemical production for over 30 years. Drake Chemical Inc., the most recent company to occupy the plant, stored its hazardous waste chemicals in shallow water ponds at the site. If something is not done to eliminate the carcinogens at the site, residents could possibly be affected through drinking water, according to the EPA fact sheet. Small amounts of toxins have leaked from the site to the area water supplies but residents do not currently use that ground water for drinking purposes. The best possible solution for the situation is the rotary kiln incinerator, according to James Cudahy, the presidt:;nt of Focus Environment Inc. Russian faculty member visits the University by Cynthia Graham Eagle Eye News Reporter_ Russian faculty member, Iryna Mykytiuk, gave a presentation on the culture of the Ukraine and the history of the exchange program between the University and Ukraine's Chemivtsi State University. Mykytiuk said the exchange began in 1990 when University President Dr. Craig Dean Willis traveled to the Ukraine with three University students while four Ukrainian students attended Lock Haven. She said that the program will continue to link the two universities until the beginning of the twenty-first century. According to Dr. Dan Shaw, professor in the Journalism/Mass Communications and Philosophy department and president of the Phi Beta Delta/Alpha Omega chapter, an academic honorary organization dedicated to international education, several cultural events are held each semester to get students and faculty interested in the University's exchange program. "Last semester we had an international potluck dinner at the international faculty house," he said. In a history of her home, Mykytiuk said the Ukraine is located in the Southeastern part of Euro[)e and is the largest country in Europe. Because the land is mostly leveled and treeless, Ukrainian soil is primarily used for agricultural purposes and is credited as being one of the world's main sugar exports. SILVER RING REP. WILL BE HERE THURSDAY 21ST AND FRIDAY 22ND Mykytiuk said the first Ukrainian state, Kievan Rus, existed from the 13th to 15th century and is known as present day, Kiev, capital of the Ukraine. She said that after World War II, the Ukraine became one of the founding members of the United Nations after having been occupied by Nazi forces in the 1941 German invasion of Russia.

There has been a lot of debate on the issue, and although it seems trivial, the debates have been hot. My advice to students would be to go to the library before you go home and get the books you need. That way you can do as much studying as you want from the privacy of your own Lazy-Boy. Or do what I do: Go home, see some family and friends, watch the Dallas Cowboys get their cans handed to them, and suck down some cranberry sauce. Now, that's the way the pilgrims would have wanted it! Sincerely, Brian P. Ploskina The end of a LHU tradition? The end of an LHU tradition you ask? As a matter or fact, that is correct. If enough students do not apply to fill the open positions for our 1997 Spring Staff, there may not be an Eagle Eye next semester and the tradition of the University's student newspaper as we know it could end. Now that I have your attention, (for I am sure you read on to find the answer to the question, "What tradition is ending?"), why not send an application on over to the office? Show an interest in keeping this newspaper up and running for the University's future students.

Despite the fact that this is a wonderful experience as far as journalism is concerned, listen up all you other majors out there for you do not have to be into the journalism thing to join us! Experience is not necessary and all majors are welcome to apply. In fact our current staff exists of a variety of majors other than journalism, including Bio-Chem, Elementary Education and Computer Science. As of right now, 11 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 20, we have received three applications for 10 available positions! With all of this in mind, stop mulling over the idea and just apply. Help keep the Eagle Eye tradition alive and gain some valuable experience in the process.

Once we begin to talk, we never forget that if we speak, our ideas will be communicated. By the time we reach the point at which we are now in our lives, we have predetermined ideas that may be more clearly defined than they were in our childhood. We are given the opportunity to express these ideas in everyday conversation, in the classroom, and through publications, such as a newspaper. On campus this semester and during the Spring 1997 . ^ semester, viewpoints on current ^ issues can be expressed through another forum — the Coffee Shop Society. Started by David Davis, a junior History major at the University, the Coffee The Shop Society is an offshoot of the honors program in which interested students meet a few times a week to discuss the pros and cons of certain issues. Davis said he got the idea for the Coffee Shop Society from his studies in history. These groups were prevalent during the 18th century, when people gathered to discuss issues of the times. The University's version of the Coffee Shop Society meets from 3 p.m. - 4 p.m. Wednesday through Friday in the Eagle Rock Cafe, at Bentley Dining Hall. The topic of discussion is decided upon by a different member of the group each day, and discussion may begin with one topic and naturally lead into another. Recent topics of discussion have ranged from underage drinking and the issue of arming Law Enforcement officers to the growing debt between the rich and the poor, according to Davis. Issues can be of both a local and a general nature. If there are two sides to an issue, the issue is likely to be discusses Davis said. Davis said that on the days it is his responsibility to choose the topic, he will occasionally suggest the position of an issue that he does not necessarily agree with in order to get the discussion moving. The objective of the Society is to encourage "critical thinking," he said. Cori Laucks, a freshman Elementary Education major who attends meetings of the Society, said she feels the Society is an interesting way to talk about topics without feeling pressure, such as can be felt in a classroom environment. She added that she believes the topics are interesting, because the group selects them. One of Davis' original goals was that the Society be an extracurricular activity for those studying the social sciences. However, students of any major are welcome, and a variety of majors are now represented in the group. Davis commented that there is no reading required to attend group meetings; anyone having an opinion that they would like to express can attend. Also, regular attendance at the Society meetings is not mandatory. During the Spring 1997 semester, Davis said the group is hoping to hold a meeting one hour a day, five days a week to make the Society accessible to more students. LOOK OUT!

Have a nice weekend! \ / m Friday, November 22,1996 Eagle Eye 7 ^— Features— Extraordinary phenomena lands in PUB by Brian Ploskina Eagle Eye Features Reporter_ He's not a magician (Houdini), he's not an illusionist (Copp>erfield). No, Craig Karges is (weird music maestro) a mentalist. Even weirder than that, he came to Lock Haven to display his mysterious talents, to a standing-room only PUB Multipurpose Room last Sunday night. If you missed the show, God save your soul because it was top-of-the-line entertainment for anybody and everybody. Throughout the mental purges of the night, Karges used volunteers from the audience to personalize these experiences. In his first demonstration, Karges had a member of the audience blindfold him with two half-dollars, 5 strips of tape (ouch!), and a standard blindfold over that. He proceeded to correctly identify a tube of chapstick that was brought up by an audience member, a word that one girl wrote down on a marker-board, the name on a student ID card, and read the serial number off of a $10 bill that an audience member supplied. Next, Karges identified the correct card that an audience member picked out of a deck of cards. He did this by holding the deck, which was closed-up in its box, and deciding that there were only 25 red cards, 12 hearts, and 3 fours. Therefore he picked the four of hearts and he was right. Karges' mind reading ability was the most impressive. He asked everyone in the audience to think of their name in association with a thought. With two gentlemen, he correctly got their name, and exact birth date. He found one girl in the audience named Jaime, and guessed accurately what she was thinking about She •wB&^jrifT,. thinking about her pet pig Arnold. He then read off /f-^-j her phone number (don't Jf* i^worry Jaime, your digits f f. i are safe with me). Next Karges put a silver scroll on a stage table and left it there in plain sight He proceeded to have someone from the audience scroll down phone numbers in a thick phone book while someone else die tated when to stop and go. She ended up selecting the same number that was inside the scroll (surprise!). One of the most visually impressive demonstrations was when Karges took three men's rings from the audience and interlocked them while one audience member actually came on stage and watched closely as he did it. Karges even had the owners of the rings come on stage to insp)ect them to prove that the rings were really theirs. And then, just as easily as he had interlocked them, he took them apart. There was not a single know-it-all in the audience that was going to explain that one. The next trick was visually awesome, but lacking in true awe. Karges had an audience member pick a number out of a bag (201) and had another person turn *'tjt».«,^ to that page in the book Firestarter by Stephen King. Karges then showed a glass picture frame ( about the size of a paper-back page), to the audience, and then covered it with paper. After having the audience rub their hands together and point them to the person on stage with the book, Karges turned the book to page 201. The page was not there. It was in the picture frame and Karges torched the tissue on the frame to display the missing page. No presentation would be complete without the levitating table, and Karges was well aware of that. He only did it after going through each theory of how U.i.

Karges' final presentation was asking four people to stand up and name a car, color, license number, and a price. The audience came up with a black Cadillac, with plates BA3159 and a $40,568 price sticker. Karges proceeded to take a sealed envelope that was in his jacket all night, opened the envelope, and had another audience member read off the sheet of paper inside, "I (Karges) am at Widener University, it is 6:47 P.M. on Saturday Nov. 16. Tomorrow, I will be at LHU and the audience will choose a black Cadillac, with plates of BA3159, and priced at $40,568." Karges has been on NBC's "Tonight Show With Jay Leno" and "Larry King Live."

Bald Eagles fight the Scots by Chris Nagy Eagle Eye Sports reporter_ FOOTBALL The University football team closed out their 1996 campaign at home last Saturday against the Fighting Scots of Edinboro University. The Haven jumped out to an early lead but could not hold off the strong rushing attack of Edinboro, and lost 45-17. The Eagles scored their first points in the first quarter on their opening drive, when they drove down to the Edinboro 29, only to have the drive stalled. Charlie Traber booted a school record 47-yard field goal, which he banked off the right upright. The Scots came right back on their first possession and scored a touchdown to make the game 7-3. Edinboro added one more score in the second quarter and took a 14-3 lead into halftime. The Scots had two chances to score in the last six minutes of the first half, but the LHU defense made two gutsy stops to keep the score at 14-3. Edinboro took the second-half kickoff and scored to make the score 21-3. Carlos Cleckley and the Haven offense came out and answered Edinboro's touchdown with one of their own. Cleckley found Bryan McGinty dashing down the field for a gain of 55 yards to the Edinboro seven. Two plays later, Willie Kitt slammed in from the three for the touchdown. The score stood at 21-10. 1 Edinboro then rolled off 24 straight points making the score 45-10. Nate Erdman came in for Cleckley on the last drive of the game and threw a 25yard touchdown pass to Jeremy Burkett for the final score of the game, 45-17. Cleckley was 6-17 passing for 92 yards and an interception. Erdman was 3-7 for 67 yards and one touchdown. Six Bald Eagles had catches on the afternoon; Jason Kundtz (3-17) and Art Harris (2-37) led the way. Willie Kitt handled the rushing duties with 10 carries for 40 yards and one touchdown. Traber also handled the punting for the Eagles on the day with five punts for 150 yards. Defensively for the Haven, Ben Steinbacher had 13 tackles (eight solo) and a forced fumble and was named to the PSAC weekly honor roll. Brad Caldwell had 12 tackles (four solo), Rashid Rogers contributed 11 tackles (six solo, one tackle for loss) and Matt Hendricks had nine (two solo, two tackles for loss). Albert Jones had the only sack for the Haven and Angelo Moultair had his fourth interception of the year.

Main St. Lock Haven, PA 748-3466 m Friday, November 22, 1996 Eagle Eye 11 Sports Long era comes to an end by Kelly O'Neill Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ Even though former head coach Lenny Long will remain at the University to teach recreation courses, he will be ending his time here as head coach of the men's soccer team. This year, under Long's guidance, the Bald Eagles team won the PSAC championships. They ended their season 14-3-2 overall, undefeated in conference play, and ranked #13 in the final national rankings. "There is nothing that I regret about my time here at LHU. It has been a great ride, but it's now time to get off," said Long After 13 seasons, Long plans to redirect his time and energy into different channels. He will be spending more time with his wife and three small children, as well as work on his major program in recreation. Long has accomplished many things and helped many people here during his 13 seasons at the Haven. Last year Long took the Bald Eagles to a 12-5-2 record and an appearance at the PSAC championships. "1 have accomplished everything 1 wanted to here at LHU as a coach, even though we were denied a bid to the final eight. My second goal as a coach was to take students and make them good people during their time here at LHU and after they graduate, and it's always a bonus if we can win a few games along the way," remarked Long. Under Coach Long the team Head Coach Lenny Long and assistant Rob did more than win a few games. Thomson sit calmly as the men's soccer team Long, a 1974 graduate of the claims the PSAC title to end the season and University, leaves coaching at the Haven with an incredible Long's coaching career at the University. career record of 173-74-21. (photo by Patrick Baney) The coaches of the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) recognized Long's success when they named him 1996 PSAC Coach of the Year. Five of Long's players were also named to the All-PSAC team. Long has been an influential figure in many lives here at Lock Haven. He has been a friend, teacher and even a father figure to some. "Coach Long is more than just a coach . He is a teacher, coach and friend — not necessarily in that order. He has helped many players and students a great deal in his 13 years here. He didn't just care about winning; he cared about people. He definitely will be missed," said senior goalie Chris Mathers. Assistant coach Rob Thompson commented, "Lenny Long has had a tremendous influence on me both on and off the field. My first opportunity to interact with Lenny was to play under him at LHU and also later on to get into coaching. 1 am now doing the job I want to make my career, and it's all because of Lenny Long." Thompson said that Long has had a tremendous influence on him. Thompson, who was three time All-PSAC goalie under Long for four years, described Long as a great person, and as somebody a student could always talk to. Says Long of his experience coaching at Lx)ck Haven, "The tremendous support from the administration and athletic office during my 13 years here has had a great impact on me and my family. 1 will forever be indebted to LHU for the privilege of working here." Even though Long will still be here at the Ladies drop home opener by Chris Gemberling Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ The Lady Eagles tipped off the 1996-97 basketball season Wednesday night in a crossover matchup against defending PSAC-East co-champs Bloomsburg University with a disappointing 77-60 loss. The team shot a dismal 23 percent from the field in the first half and finished the game shooting 35 percent overall from the field. Coach Frank Scarfo commented, "We shot ourselves right out of the game." Scarfo attributed the Haven's lack of rhythm to the easy putbacks and free throws that the team missed. "We v/ould spin our wheels, spin our wheels and never get started. We were fortunate to be down by only ^at half," he said. LHU rallied behind key buckets by Becky Peter, Amy Nickles, and Tanya Jones to close the second half with a score of 3125 in favor of the Huskies. Coach Scarfo felt it was important for the team to come out in the second half and pick up the intensity to get themselves and the crowd back in the game. After coming out of the locker room at half time with a lift, the Lady Eagles went cold. They did not score until the 13:42 mark in the second half, which ended a 17-0 Bloomsburg run. The Haven picked up their scoring to tally 35 second-half points, which was not enough to overcome the deficit they were dealt by the Huskies, who shot 50 percent from the field for the game. A key downfall for the Lady Eagles was the eight for 18 that they shot from the foul line in the second half of play. Lock Haven was led by sophomore standout Peter, who finished the game with an impressive 14 points and eight rebounds. Nickles was close behind with 11 points off of the bench. Meridith McKnight added nine points and a team-leading nine rebounds, most of which came in the second half. Freshman |K)int guard Rachel Ebeling notched six points in her first game as a Lady Eagle, complemented by her seven rebounds and team-leading five assists. Terri Johnson, also a freshman, added five points, as did senior captain Shannon Bowers, to the point total for Lock Haven. When asked about the game, Coach Scarfo commented, "I was disapfjointed in our effort, but the girls are really not happy with themselves. We have difficulties to overcome before the games even start." Haven, his presence on the soccer field will be sorely missed. His love for the game of soccer and his understanding of people makes him a very special man. Who's on deck? Volleyball: Away at the NCAA Atlantic Regionals at West Virgina Wesleyan this weekend. The team will play against Edinboro University on Friday. Wrestling: Away at the Cornell Duals and the East Stroudsburg Open. Swimming: Home vs. Slippery Rock University tomorrow at 1 p.m. Men's Hoops: At the Indianapolis Tournament today and tomorrow. Women's Hoops: Home against Centenary College on Sunday at 2 p.m. and against Columbia Union College on Monday evening at 6 p.m. Lock Haven plays the three top teams from the East; two of those games will be played on the road. They also have to learn a new system as a relatively young team. The starting line up included a freshman, two sophomores, a junior, and one S(;nio«'. The Lady Eagles will use this first game as a starting point. "We'll take this lesson and swallow. It doesn't taste good right now, but we'll swallow it and learn," Scarfo added. Eagle Eye Sports Ladies capture PSAC crown 12 Eagle Eye Friday, November 22, 1996 by Brian Ploskina Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ For the first time since its creation Just six years ago, the Lady Eagle volleyball team won the PSAC Championship title last Saturday. The Lady Eagles had to overcome incredible obstacles, playing two teams that had beaten them earlier in the season. Not only did they overcome these obstacles, but ihey did it in a dramatic fashion, defeating Edinboro University at Edinboro in five sets (15-10, 15-12, 14-16, 8-15, 1917). This victory came after the ladies defeated East Stroudsburg University in straight sets (15-8, 15-10, 15-13) on Friday night. The ladies beat East Stroudsburg by attacking with precision and accuracy. Sarah Curtis had 11 digs and a team-high 16 kills. Tara Newcomer had six digs, 12 kills, and a team-high attack percentage of .367 percent with only one error. Fadime Verhoeven and Megan Best combined for 22 kills and 21 digs, and Ms. Automatic, Becky Peters, dished a colossal 51 assists along with 12 digs. The Lady Eagles topped ESU in every way possible. They beat them in kills 5530, digs 56-41, and total attacking with 27 percent to ESU's 15 percent. So how does a 25-11 LHU team totally annihilate a 32-1 ESU team that beat the Lady Eagles earlier in the season in straight sets? Well, for one. Lock Haven has a much tougher schedule than does East Stroudsburg. The Lady Eagles played Edinboro, Slippery Rock and West Virginia Wesleyan all twice this season. All three of those teams have been ranked in the top three of the Atlantic Region at one time or another this season. (WVW and EU are presently ranked #1 and #3, respectively.) Another reason for the Haven's success over Stroudsburg is that ESU may have counted their chickens too soon before they played the Lady Eagles, since they had beaten LHU earlier in the season. The Lady Eagles also have a worse record than they do. Head coach Tom Justice commented, "ESU may have made the mistake of thinking we were not tough enough to beat them." One reason for the ladies' tarnished record is that many of the players were injured going into the season, so they lost a lot of their opening games. "No team has made as much progress as we have during the course of the season," added Justice. After the convincing win over East Stroudsburg, the Lady Eagles would face their conference rival Edinboro in the final for the PSAC title. Lock Haven did not have the same advantage over the Lady Scots as they did over ESU. The Lady Eagles had just defeated Edinboro a week prior to the championship match-up, so ESU was quite aware of just how dangerous this LHU team was. It was a close five-set match, but the Lady Eagles pulled out the win and the PSAC trophy. Curtis had 16 kills and a team-high 16digs. Jaime Entenmann had her best game of the season with seven kills, zero errors, and a .467 attack percentage. Best had 14 digs and a team-high 18 kills, while Newcomer and Verhoeven combined for 27 kills, 22 digs, and only one error between them. Peters was unstoppable once again, supplying 57 of the team's 59 assists. And with that, the Lock Haven University volleyball team is the state champion. But the season is not over yet... The Lady Eagles are now the #2 bid in the NCAA Atlantic Regionals. They will once again face # 3 Edinboro tonight, and the winner of that match-up will go on to face #1 West Virginia Wesleyan tomorrow night in the regional final. The winner of that game will go to nationals. The team seems confident to play Edinboro, but W ^ W is another story. They beat the Lady Eagles twice this season, but team member Kelli Kowalski stated, "We've improved since then." Coach Justice remarked, "It all depends on the heart and the commitment of the team." The Lady Eagles are now 27-10..have a share of first place in the PSAC-West title, and are now State Champions. All of this in only their sixth year of existence. Coach Justice was clear about h's goals for the season, "Our goal was to win the PSAC's this year, then go on to regionals, and then to nationals." What has been the key for this year's squad? "I believe in my people," remarked Justice. Bald Eagles leave Baptist Bible defenseless by Brian Ploskina Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_ Control was key for the Bald Eagle basketball team last Tuesday night as the home team defeated the Baptist Bible Defenders 84-64. Chris Daley led the scoring for the Eagles with 21 points in his 34 minutes on the floor. It was Daley who opened up the game for LHU with a sweet three-pointer. Forwards James Burrell and Dan Welker poured it on to make the score 9-4. The Defenders tried to come back, but guard Michael Shue nailed a three-pointer under pressure to keep LHU ahead 26-20. Baptist Bible got to within 29-26 on a corner jumper by Defenders guard Larry Locker, but Shue hit a layup, Leo Skorupa nailed a jumper, and then Shue connected with Burrell on a no-look pass to raise the score 38-28. Burrell was absolutely on fire with two layups and a baseline jumper off the glass to take LHU to a 46-30 lead. The Bald Eagles took the first half 48-36. The Bald Eagles frustrated the Defenders with their strict man-to-man defense all night. Baptist Bible's man-zone defense just could not contain the likes of Shue, who totalled 13 points and six rebounds, and Chris Daley who scored 11 points and shot five for eight in the first half. Burrell went to intermission with 10 points and three rebounds. The second half was nothing more than a mercy killing; Baptist Bible never got within 10 points. Shue opened the onslaught with one of his three three-pointers of the night. Daley swished a fade-away jumper to give LHU a 55-38 lead. Baptist Bible fought back, however. With 13:34 left in the game, Bible's Jason Penley .schooled Burrell with an in-yourface dunk. Penley led the Defenders in points with 33, and rebounds with 16. Daley went coast-to-coast twice, nailing two layups, and giving LHU a 66-52 lead with 9:10 left to play. Solid play by Skorupa and Dan Welker kept the Bald Eagles ahead 69-56 with 6 minutes left to play. The Defenders never posed a true threat and head coach Brad Bross unloaded his bench with four minutes left. The Defenders' Penley got a technical foul for arguing with the referees at 1:30, and Nick Bielak nailed both free throws to give the Bald Eagles a 78-62 cushion. John Shue seemed to be the hometown hero when he iced two breakaway layups at the end of the game. His last layup came off of a stellar screen by Bielak. The final score was 84-64, and from watching, the game did not even seem that close. Welker gave the home team a silent but deadly performance with 17 points and a team-high 13 boards. Shue also supplied some heat with 16 points and six rebounds, and Burrell rounded out the double-digit scoring for the Bald Eagles with 13 points and five rebounds. Another great performance was turned in by Leo Skorupa, who played 36 minutes and supplied a team-high 7 assists. The team was, however, lacking two important components of their game plan. The first was emotion. Bross commented, "I'm a little disappointed that we didn't play with the effort and enthusiasm that we did in the first week." The Bald Eagles lost two big overtime games last weekend in a tournament at Fairmont State College. "We player" pretty well," Bross said. The team was also missing two of their best players in Doug Oliver and Chad McKinney, who were suspended for the game for violating team rules at last weekend's tournament. The players had gotten into a heated debate with the referees. Shue explained, "1 could see how emotions could get out of hand a little bit." The team was elated about Tuesday night's win. "It was a good effort by aW the guys and I'm glad to get oui>first win,'' said Burrell. Even though Bible Baptist got out of hand during the game with Penley's technical foul, and their Head Coach, Mike Show, on the court arguing after every call, the Bald Eagles always stayed cool and in control. Shue simply stated, "We know better." With the win, the Bald Eagles are 1-2 and will play in two tournaments in the near future, the first in Indianapolis, Indiana, on November 22, and 23, and at Gannon University in Erie, Pa., on Nov. 29 and 30, before coming home for a December 1 matchup with Bloomsburg.
