After roughly 35 years, the state system looks at buildings to decide if they should be renovated, and Stevenson is expected to go through more changes down the road. Librarians put forth the idea of renovating a few years ago for two main reasons, Fulton said. One was because of the dark imprcs* sion that the library currently gives off when walking in, due to poor lighting and the other being the change in technology over the past years. Fulton said the new look should "integrate technology with print. We want to make students more aware of options for research. We want to make this the infor- RECEPTION & DKKAY AREA --Page 7- CS"rKV''«nm,,„ll'!.'.'ii.. "in' ■(,' - anymore. Instead, librarians will have their own room to teach research methods. For those who have a need to work on laptops, students will be able to plug into the connections which will be installed in the main library for students to plug into. There will also be a meet and greet area as one walks through the main entrance doors between the circulation area, which is staying to the left, and the reference desk and services to the right.

According to the National Women's Histiry Project, the observance was initiated by the Education Task Force of Sonoma County (California) Commission on the Status of Women in 1978 with March 8 as International Women's Day marking the focal point of the celebration. In 1981, Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) and Rep. Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) secured a Resolution Congressional declaring a "National Women's History Week." Soon, state departments of education from across the country were encouraging schools to celebrate National Women's History Week as a means to "achieving equity goals within class- rooms." By 1987, the National Women's History Project petitioned Congress to recognize women throughout the entire month of March. The resolution was passed with bipartisan sup- port.

Seyfried received his Bachelor's degree in radio and television at Portland State University, and took his first job as an intern at a television station in Missouri, where he learned to write scripts and direct. After taking a job in the news department, Seyfried realized that he wanted to move on to sports broadcasting. He returned to school and earned his master's degree at Syracuse University. Seyfried was a Weekend Sports Anchor at a television station in Nebraska, and a Sports Director for a station in Ithaca, NY before taking his current position at WETM-TV. As Sports Director Seyfried is responsible for coverage of high school, college and some professional sports such as NASCAR Racing, hockey, baseball and basketball. He said, the best thing about his job is that he's not in the office from 9 to 5; however, the worst part is the long hours that he has to work. Seyfried is also responsible for reviewing resume tapes for the sports department and gave students tips on what he desires in potential employees. According to Seyfried, a resume tape should contain the best work of the applicant. The beginning of the tape should have a five-minute slate, giving the applicants name, address and current telephone number. The tape should then show five minutes of stand-ups, two anchor segments, ten minutes of package stories and should end with another fiveminute slate of the applicant. Television stations are not looking at the quality of the tape, they're looking at the person and their reporting skills. Stations realize that colleges are not equipped with all the new technology and that resume tapes sent to them will not be commercial. According to Seyfried, an organized cover letter and tape show time and effort, which will help an applicant get the job. Seyfried advised students to do everything they can to get their foot in the door. He recommended getting an internship, taking odd jobs and paying attention in class. "Everything you learn, take it with you, it's the concepts that stay the same," stated Seyfried. He told students, that there are a lot of jobs in news, but sports broadcasting is a harder game. "A lot of people are fighting for the same job," said Seyfried, "It's important to go into your first job and show them that you're a hard worker." Seyfried recommended that students right out of college start their career in a smaller market at an entry-level position and work their way up. He suggested taking a job at a cable station the first six months after college to get a feel for the business, adding that cable stations are always hiring and that they easily forgive mistakes made by new employees. Seyfried told students to look for jobs online at www.tvjobs.com and www.medialine.com; the sites have entry fees ranging from $15 to $75 a year. He also told students to look for jobs in sports broadcasting magazines. "Everybody out there is working hard to get a job," said Seyfried. He strongly emphasized to students the importanzce of experience, developing an on camera personality and producing a quality resume tape. Chris Murray, Vice-President of the Sports Broadcasting Club, said the club is looking forward to bringing more speakers to campus. He said their focus is mainly on sports because of their prominence at LHU. The Sports Broadcasting Club is looking for people that would like to learn more about the profession.

The decision a couple of weeks ago by the Kansas State Board of Education to allow the teaching of evolution has reignited the debate on what should be taught in schools, and how, with regards to science and religion. This debate should also extend to universities and the practices of this college teaching ofevolution that is both hypocritical and unacceptable. Christians arguing that their scriptures are the only reliable source show a disregard for other religious beliefs, as well as those of 'non-believers'. They cannot claim discrimination on the grounds of belief if they are doing exactly the same thing to should be reviewed. another group. The teaching of It was an important and necevolution can help to reduce this essary decision that the Kansas prejudice by exposing people to board made as the teaching of an alternative.

But, by allowing the of those Christians need also to teaching of evolution, the board be respected and understood as is presenting school kids with with any religion, though it is the opportunity to make up their unfortunate that the zealots proown minds. They don't necesvoke such a reaction that regular sarily have to agree but they worshippers feel under-siege for should at least be well informed. practicing their religion. An example of this overThere is an intolerance shown by opponents of the enthusiasm is the Kansas Board member Steve Abrams who advocated the theory 'intelligent design' that states man and the universe were the work of God. Mr. Abrams wanted this in place of evolution describing it as 'goodempirical science'. That is an unjustifiably biased statement based on religion that was rightly ignored by the Board. is currently prohibited as it is feared that schools would not be able to present a 'viewpoint neutral' perspective on the subject. Teaching religion does not have to consist of preaching what is written. It can be approached from an academic, objective point of view that allows a greater understanding of other people's beliefs. Again 'understand' does not have to mandate 'belief. This week the Supreme Court is hearing the case of Zachary Hood, the firstgrader from New Jersey who was banned from reading a story from The Beginner's Bible in class. His principal said it was the 'equivalent of praying' and his teacher feared it 'might influence' other children. It appears that schools are now so scared of appearing to Jon Ryan endorse the teaching ofreligion Eagle Eye Columnist that they are actively suppressing it. Their reasoning for this is But as children should be that it would impinge on other allowed to learn about Darwin, people's beliefs, and this is an they should also be given at least understandable concern. No-one a basic understanding in a varishould have someone else's ety ofreligions. The teaching of beliefs imposed on them, but the religion in public high schools schools are surely imposing theirs on those pupils who do worship in whatever religion. It is a very fine line that the schools tread and the case of Zachary proves this. The story he read, "A Big Family" does not mention anything particularly religious, omitting any mention of God, and so it should have been accepted even under the current framework. But the teacher deemed it to be religious worship, focusing on its context rather than the actual storytelling content that the firstgraders were probably more interested in anyway. An objective teaching ofreligion in schools would prevent much of the intolerance that can be seen with regards to the various religions. It must also include the study of why people choose not to believe or worship. This would promote an equality of understanding under which children could develop their own system of beliefs rather than one that is imposed on them either at home or in school. And so it must continue into college. People should be allowed to practice their religion without feeling scrutinized but at the same time must not interfere with other beliefs. At the graduation ceremony for instance, proceedings were commenced with a prayer. For anyone who chose not to, this was an uncomfortable moment. There is a distinction between learning and worshipping and this was the latter. The practicing of a religion should not be allowed at a public event such as it was at the graduation ceremony as it shows a disregard for different standpoints. When the Kansas State Board of Education allowed the teaching of evolution to be reintroduced to the curriculum it took an important step towards a more inclusive system of teaching. This can be continued by the teaching of religion in schools, as an objective viewpoint will not only better nonbelievers understanding of what it is that makes people worship, but will also give believers an insight as to why some people hold different viewpoints on religion.

Students must pay $20 for a pass to park in the same lot that belongs to the building. Nobody else really has ever parked here, because it's far from campus. The dirt commuter lot is only 25 yards from the building, and the price for that sure isn't what we pay. That really isn't fair. As I said before, our cars are even in danger. We definately are not paying for security. All in all, it isn't such a bad place to live, If you stay inside, don't break anything and have enough money to provide for yourself. I'd like it to be more free. Most of the students here 21 and upperclass men whose original intention to move to Campus village was to get off campus. I would like to propose that the Village even be changed to allow alcohol. OK, before you get into a huff, hear me out. Those who lived here before were permitted to have alcohol, even outside on the balcony. If anyone, those with that "Grandfather Clause" should be allowed. A lot of people do bring it into the building, as I've seen in the past. The way I figure, in order to have a drink and relax, we have to go out to the bars. By their nature, bars are more expensive than drinking at home. So, the price that I am forced to pay for a few beers out at the bar is greater than that of what I would pay at home. That difference can add up. I'd say, since it's being forced on us, why doesn't the University give all who qualify an "Imbibing Compensation Rebate" for all the money we lose? Ah, it was just a corny idea anyway. But, why must it be dry? Simply allow only students who are over 21 to live down here. Most of us are old enough to drink anyway. This way, discrimination doesn't fall on the university, it falls on the law that says only those 21 and over can legally drink alcohol. It isn't age discrimination if it's state law, is it? So, if you are thinking about moving into Campus Village and having an easy time, you may want to keep this article. If anybody wishes to reach me for a comment, I'm willing to talk. Again, I wish to reinforce that this article is only the collected opinions and hearsay from some of the people that live at Campus Village and my firsthand observations of events. I wish no harm, only to inform the students in the rest ofcampus of what they don't see.

How can anyone learn about philosophy in a class that covers everything that ever had anything to do with philosophy? Problems of Philosophy, a 100 level course, covers such a broad range of subjects that any good conversation (conversation being the essence of philosophy) has to be cut short in order for mandatory material to be covered. These broad, introductory level courses briefly touch on a lot of things but rarely ask the students to do more than memorize the names of the people who founded the...blah blah blah.

Khanh Vo, born in South Vietnam, was among refugees who traveled by boat to America during the fall of Saigon. In 1975, Khanh arrived in San Diego, California, the city where his mother later took her life. His physical displacement after the Vietnam War and his emotional concentration on his mother's suicide has been influential to Vo's art. In his work, Vo attempted to re-create his uncertain and unsettling, past. His trip to the United States and the homeland he left behind were among Vo's motivations. Through his work, he searched for a resolution to his history. "[We] long for a place we still don't know much about," Vo said. "You always think about the places where you grew up." He began as a painter and later developed the necessity to express himself beyond the confines of a two dimensional surface. By creating sculpture and installation works, Vo extended his reach to incorporate and make use of space.

These qualities give way to the sensual and metaphorical implications of his work. At first glance, one may not see into the depth of Vo's works. Some observers found Monday's lecture helpful in guiding them to a better understanding of the conceptual content. "Vo's presentation was helpful in gaining insight," said Art major. Aaron Held. " It is art that definitely needs an explanation." For some, Vo's art may beg for words. However, after understanding the real significance of his work one can look through the eye of the artist and understand his legacy of uncertainty. Vo's work will be on display until March 23 in the Sloan Fine Arts Center. The gallery is open from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturdays, and 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. on Sundays. ■1 dis- duce a work which integrates human activity into space.

Illegal dump sites are on public forest and park lands in Adams, Bedford, Cambria, Cameron, Clearfield, Clinton, Cumberland, Elk, Fayette, Franklin, Fulton, Lebanon, McKean, Mifflin, Monroe, Perry, Pike and Potter counties. , "Trashing public lands is like vandalizing a beautiful painting," DCNR Secretary John C. Oliver said. "When uncaring people dump their daily trash, appliances, tires and other unwanted items on lands owned by Pennsylvanians, not only are they spoiling the beauty of our land, but they are introducing other hazards—pollutants and risks —to citizens and wildlife." The Forest Lands Beautification Act, signed into law in 1998 by Gov. Tom Ridge, provides up to $7.5 million over five years to clean up existing dumps on state forest and park lands by recycling or properly disposing of the waste. In partnership with its contractor. PA cleanup CleanWays. DCNR has identified an estimated 150 illegal dumpsites in state forests and state parks. Last year, DCNR and PA CleanWays developed the criteria and procedures for the cleanups through the process of cleaning 14 "pilot" sites. More than 130 volunteers and contractors worked with DCNR and PA CleanWays to remove 82 tons of trash, including more than 900 tires, from the pilot sites in eight state forests Bald Eagle, Buchanan, Delaware, Gallitzin, Rothrock, and Tuscarora Sproul. and State Tiadaghton Bendigo Park. "Local involvement is the key to our success," Oliver said. "Cleaning an active dump site without the involvement oflocal communities is like putting a Band-Aid on a wound. We need to get to the root of the problem, and we need the help of local citizens and businesses to help us get there." Helen Ostermiller, project manager for PA CleanWays, noted there are 147 illegal dumpsites in state forests across the state plus another estimated 25 sites in state parks. Of those sites, 100 sites are active and need local involvement. "All it takes is one person — — willing to be involved to get the ball rolling," Ostermiller said. "We then work with them and DCNR personnel to identify other possible sources of involvement in the area, and we use our expertise to devise a plan for the cleanup." Ostermiller noted that in 2000, Nick Bolgiano, an avid birdwatcher in Huntingdon County, Connie Kling, who lives near a state forest in Perry County, and David Turner, a camp owner from Clinton County, each spurred a major cleanup of a dump site in their neighboring state forests. By calling l-877-7PA-FOREST(l877-772-3673) and expressing their willingness to be involved, these sites were moved to the top of the list of sites to be cleaned. "We're looking to clean between 15 and 20 active sites in 2001, and expressed local interest will be a key factor in sites," these cleaning Ostermiller said. The sites will be selected February through March. Interested individuals and groups are encouraged to call toll free, 1-877-772-3673, or e-mail paforest@pacleanways.org. Game Commision Counts Elk Commission discovers new Minow - HARRISBURG The Game Commission has estimated the state's elk population to be 622 animals, based on three days of aerial survey work over the Allegheny Mountains in Clinton, Cameron, Elk, Clearfield, Potter and Tioga counties. The 2001 count is up from 566 in 2000, when the suran vey was last performed increase ofnearly 10 percent. Raw ley Cogan the PA game commissions Elk biologist said, "Based on recent trends, we believe the elk herd will reach about 700 by the fail of 2001, and it could be nearly 1,000 by 2005. The elk population has been climbing steadily since the late 1980s, growing anywhere from 10 to 14 percent from one year to the next." "We believe the elk population has stabilized in the traditional range of Elk and Cameron counties," Cogan said. "However, natural dispersal and the three trap-and-transfer projects aided elk numbers in other areas to continue to increase. In fact, we have received reports of elk being spotted as far east as western Lycoming County." "This year's survey is a very conservative figure, based on other things we saw from the air. For example, while flying over State Game Land 14, observers saw a lot of elk tracks in the snow, but did not see the animals under a stand of conifers. In this particular survey block we had counted 45 elk last year, but were only able to confirm four because of the - thick vegetative cover." The wild elk inhabiting dents of 50 elk released in Clinton and Clearfield counties in 1913. From 1913 to 1926, a total of 177 elk mostly from Yellowstone National Park were released in seven counties to serve as a breeding base for what was hoped would develop into a population that could sustain hunting. Eastern elk were found throughout Pennsylvania prior to its colonization. Their numbers declined as civilization advanced, mostly as a result of unregulated hunting and deforestation. Elk were scarce in most areas by the beginning of the 1800s. They have been protected in the Commonwealth since 1931. - Hard Earned Gash On Something Worthwhile. v ''.

"I knew that I had something different. And I knew what I thought they might be, but I couldn't be certain until we were able to take them back to the lab. What I didn't know at the time was that this species of minnow had never been found in Pennsylvania before," said Spear. Spear's identification was confirmed last week by Dr. Jay Stauffer of Penn State University. The pugnose minnow is approximately 2.5 inches long, has a compressed body, small head and blunt snout with an almost vertical mouth. It occurs in sluggish, clear, vegetated waters over muddy or silty bottoms. The pugnose minnow occurs in the Mississippi River Drainage and ranges from Ohio south to Louisiana. Future surveys will be done to determine population size and geographic distribution in Pennsylvania.

The find came as a result of a project to create an Index of Biological Integrity (IBI) for the Commonwealth. An IBI survey provides an evaluation of the species present in a fish community. The overall health of the fish community can then be used as a measuring stick to assess the stream's relative water quality. The Commission is developing an IBI for Pennsylvania in conjunction with the and the DEP. As part of the IBI development, Commission Fisheries Biologist Rick Spear and DEP Water Pollution Biologists Ray Hasse and Joe Brancato conducted a Fisheries survey September 23, 2000 on the Cussewago Creek, Crawford County, in the Allegheny River drainage. Nineteen fish species were collected, including two When I first pulled into the parking lot at the head of Walnut Creek, just before it poured into the giant lake, my eyes where fixed upon the stream that appeared on my right. Even from a distance of about one hundred yards and through the car window I could see the fish I traveled three hours to catch. My heart jumped, I had heard stories, but none did the sight justice. My second thought was, where the hell am I going to park? The parking lot was jampacked. Boats and large trucks were parked everywhere I looked After circling the parking lot about three times I finally found an empty spot and brought my worn out car to a rest. Even before I could finish pulling my key from the ignition the doors of my car were flung open and my buddy and I were in a mad dash to get into our waders and hit the creek. Rods clicked and reels whistled as Ernie and 1 and the rest of the fly fishing club prepared to do battle with these giants of nature. There an excitement that about us we strolled to the creek side. As 1 topped the bank beside the creek, my excitement vanished. My stomach turned as I looked down upon rows and rows of people. The creek disappeared amidst a sea of humans. The large fish that were once so easy to see from the car now stood hidden behind a wall of fishing tackle and oversized rods. Not a single hole remained open, every possible well was stuffed full of every guaranteed- towork Steel head bait. Determined to find my way from the maddening crowed, I ventured up stream to no avail. The farther I went the more waders and vests I saw. I finally settled down, having decided away from the barrage of spinners thrown their way. Often they became the victims of foul hooking. I saw the huge scars that decorated their backs; some even still wore the spinner in their sides. It is required by law that all foul hooked fish are returned to the water, but I feel this may be an even bigger disservice to the fish. I began to wonder if anyone standing on those banks saw what I saw. I was sick to think that no else realized how incredible these fish were and what we were doing to them. I caught two fish that day; one of them was the biggest freshwater fish I ever caught. Both were hooked in the mouth. A young guy standing next to me on the bank helped me net the monster. He said to me "looks like it's a legal hook, keep him". I held the fish in my hands nd stood for a quick picture, then turned back to the creek and returned my fish to the waters. The guy looked at me. "You must be from around here," he said. I replied, "nope, first time here." "Why did you throw him back," he asked. I simply responded, " I know I caught him, got the picture to prove it. He knows I caught him, but he doesn't have scars to remember it, and everyone here knows I caught him, and was man enough to put him back." As I sat by the shores oflake Erie later that evening and reflected on what the days events had brought, I was proud to know that I had not scared a single fish. I returned from Erie with nothing but the picture of my fish and the visions in my head. Yet, I was richer than any man who loaded his limit of three steel head into a cooler, which would eventually end up in his freezer, because I had understood. to get . i Eagle Eye Page Stretch run begins for Final Four dreamers Wendell Barnhouse Knight-Ridder Newspapers - FORT WORTH This is the time of year when the Protection Environmental Agency increases its monitoring of gaseous emissions at selected college campuses.

Edinboro and Clarion, Virginia College Tournament Jared Guest Eagle Eye Staff Reporter The Bald Eagles look to lone senior Stacie Miller to lead the way. Miller, who is the team's co-caption, led last year's team in all categories. In the first four games of the season, she is showing why she has been named PSAC West first team for the past three years. She leads the team with a very impressive .714 batting average, The Haven have 10 key returning players. Co-captain Teri Heinbach and Michelle Boone look to use last year's experience to help the team win more games. Heinbach is currently 0-2, but has a low .50 ERA in 14 innings of work. Boone, who made one appearance for 5.2 innings, has an ERA of 2.47. "They got hit hard at times last said Green. year," "Defensively, we didn't perform. The defense needs to make plays and keep the ball on the ground to be successful." Newcomers Katie Lord and Aprie Bower add depth to the pitching staff. Lord has already pitched 6.2 innings, going 1-1 overall. "Katie Lord will take this team to the next level," said Green. Bower made a short appearance, giving up four runs on five hits in 0.1 innings of work. The rest of the returnees include Tara Trabosh at first base, Julie Snavely at second, Kim Tonsch at shortstop, Jacy Proctor at third, Shelby Long and AngieGula in the outfield, and Kristen Tome at first or third base. The Bald Eagles picked up nine total newcomers, bringing the roster to 19 players. The include new field players Jocelyn Tutrani (3B/1B), Katie Gallagher and Lisa Dummeyer (ss), Jen Mitman (C), Chrissy Hunsberger (C/OF), Lynette Murray (OF), and Jen Gable The Bald Eagles went 1-3 weeks ago at the Longwood College Tournament in Virginia. They dropped all three games by one run and their lone victory came against College of West Virginia, 111 C/tfthall Co-Captain Staci OOTIPail Miller leads the team with 0.714 batting average, three doubles and 10 hits, all coming in these four games. Tara Trabosh is batting 0.700 and has four RBIs. The Haven dropped the first game to Kutztown, 1-0. Teri Heinbach was the losing pitcher. In the second game of the day, the Bald Eagles scored 11 runs on 12 hits. Katie Lord picked up her first career win. The next day, the Bald Eagles played the host team and lost 1-0. Heinbach dropped to 0-2 on the season, as this game went eight innings. In the final game of this weekend tournament, the College of West Virginia avenged its previous lost by defeating the Haven 8-7. LHU did score all seven runs on 10 hits. Lord received the lost, now at 1-1 overall. "We lost two one-run games. We didn't get our big hits with two outs. We had plenty of hits, had a lot. We need now to work on more pressure situations," stated Head Coach Kelley Green. While most students will be relaxing over Spiting Break, the softball team will be using this week to participate in the Rebel Games in Orlando, Fla. Green, in her second year as head coach, will lead her team down south to face some stiff competition in this tournament. "If we play like we did in Virginia, we will definitely go away with a good record. We play some good teams. If we keep improving on our hitting and pitching, we'll have a suc(OF.) cessful time down there," said two Trio of Bald Eagle hoopsters continuing Lock Haven tradition set by parents Whethfr you believe in fate, consequence, or any variation of the two, the simple probability that the parents of three players on any given college team have also worn that same uniform is certainly not a common occurrence. Enter the 2001 Lock Haven men's basketball team. Not one, not two, but, yes, three players on the Bald Eagle roster are the children of former Bald Eagle and Lady Eagle hoopsters. And as chance would have it, all six parents attended Lock Haven. Kristopher Holtzer, son of Al and Wanda Holtzer, Mike Chancey, son of Michael and Chalise Chancey, and Jason Lucas, son of Charles and Barbara Lucas, have all found their way to the Haven hardwood to add another unique chapter to their respective family's connections with Lock Haven University. #11 Kristopher Holtzer (So., Matamoras/ 6'2", G, Valley) Delaware It was irony that brought sophomore basketball player Kristopher Holtzer to Lock Haven University, rather than a planned outcome by his father Al, who played two seasons of varsity basketball from 1976 to 1978 for the Bald Eagles. "I hadn't planned on Kris coming here. In fact, I'd rather he hadn't,'' said Al Holtzer. "Another coach had recommended him to LHU and it unfolded from there." Lock Haven University visited Kris's high school, to see him play Valley, Delaware saw. He they and liked what a offered immediately was visit to asked scholarship and the campus. "I didn't want to come here at first but I came up here for a visit and I liked the guys on the team," said Kris. "I knew I had a good chance to play a lot right away and that was a big thing." In his freshman season, Kris was given plenty of time on the court, playing in 24 of 26 games and starting 20 of them. Proceeding Kris, Al Holtzer had a successful basketball career at Lock Haven, where he met Kris's mother, Wanda. In his two seasons of play, Al averaged 7.3 points per game under Head Coach Dick Taylor, who became assistant coach of the New York Knicks after Holtzer graduated. Al Holtzer was also named Most Valuable Player of the team his senior year. Now, Al Holtzer coaches the basketball team at Delaware Valley High School and teaches health and physical education. "Both my parents went here so they like it a lot that I decided to go here," said Kris Holtzer. "My parents had a large influence on my basketball career. It is definitely a family thing. I have been playing basketball my whole life." Al Holtzer has kept Kris exposed to the game his entire life, playing he grew up. "He quit playing me after my junior year," said Kris. "After I started winning, he starting quitting. No more one-on-one." "It was more of a sense of it wasn't doing him any good than anything else," the elder Holtzer explained. These days, Kris's parents make it to every home game and try to make it to all of the away games in the PSAC East, continuing to cheer their son on as they had all his life. #42 Mike Chancey (So., F, 6'3", Braddock/ Woodland Hills) Sophomore guard Mike Chancey's path to LHU almost didn't happen. "I didn't really start liking basketball until I was in junior wouldn't play him when he was said younger, because the only hoops school," high/high Chancey. "I was a baseball idol that he can recall having player. But I guess i got bored was his father. "My dad always took me to with it after awhile, and the summer basketball games were his games with the church league and everything, and he more fun, so I gave up baseball was always a good player, so he when I was 16 or 17 to play baswas really the only person I ever ketball." Perhaps it was his father, looked up to." Once he got to high school, former LHU guard Michael Chancey, who influenced him to Mike traded in his cleats for hightops, playing junior varsity finally try out the hardwood. "He couldn't help it, he his sophomore season before almost had to like basketball," moving up to the varsity during joked Michael Chancey.

Mike evidently held no hard Potts town/German town feelings against that coach who Academy) - Senior Jason Lucas has certainly made the most of the time he gets, and as his teammate mentioned, has played a major role in the recent success of the Bald Eagle basketball team. The 6-7 forward's basketball career has spanned many years and many different places. Jason began playing in third grade for a summer league among fourth and fifth graders. Graduating from Germantown Academy, he received several all-league and all-city academic and athletic accolades in a variety of sports. At the suggestion of his mother, however, it was basketball he chose to pursue at the collegiate level. Jason didn't take the direct route to Lock Haven. He began his college career at Lafayette College, but unfortunately, injured his knee and sat out his freshman year. After a year at Lafayette, Jason transferred to Millersville University where he played for two seasons, one under then Marauder assistant coach and now Lock Haven Head Coach John Wilson. But something still didn't feel right, and after much deliberation, Jason made the Basketball team, tallying up to 30 points and 22 rebounds a game during her freshman and sophomore years, 1975-1976. Charlie and Barbara began to date during their sophomore year at LHU. Some time later Barbara became pregnant and had to end her outstanding basketball career. Little did they know that they would soon wed and bring yet another LHU star into the world. When asked if she ever wonders what might have become of her career, Barbara replied, "I sometimes wonder what might have been, but then I look at thewonderful, sweet boy I brought into the world and the wonderful man I married, and say I wouldn't change a thing." Jason's choice to attend Lock Haven was another decision that none of the Lucas' will ever look back on in regret. "One of the main reasons why 1 came to Lock Haven was because I once played under Coach Wilson and I liked the way he coached and how he treated me and I also have relatives in the area, it was just an ideal situation for me." "I was actually surprised when he [Jason] told me, but he and Coach Wilson had struck a relationship while they were atMillersville, and that was really how the connection was made," said Charlie Lucas. transfer to Lock Haven two years ago.
