Jam the Gym strengthens school spirit
by Jessica Mull
Eagle Eye News Reporter_
The members of Sigma Kappa cheered
their way to victory and won their team
$100 on Wednesday night at the Jam the
Gym competition in Thomas Field House.
TTie event, organized by the Athletic
Department and the Haven Activities
Council (HAC), was meant to encourage
the University's organizations to come out
in sup(X)rt of the men's and women's basketball teams. The participating teams
were judged in five categories: loudest
group, largest attendance, best coordination
of school colors, best cheer, and best sign.
The key to winning was to yell, stomp,
cheer and shout as loudly and as creatively
as possible, and the only rule was that all
members of each team had to stay throughout both games.
The North Hall team placed second in
the competition, winning $75, and the
Black Student Union (BSU) placed third.

winning $50 for their organization. Other
participants included members of Kappa
Delta Rho and the Haven Hecklers, a group
of students who attend every basketball
game.
The event is the work of the new assistant director of athletics, Pat Guerriero.
Guerriero is an alumnus of the University
and remembers when events like this were
a common occurrence for all sports. He
said, "This is the beginning of what I'd like
to do all next year...with basketball, football
and wrestling."
Assisting the athletic department in the
night's activities was HAC, which according to HAC coordinator Mary O'Mara, was
"a wonderful idea." O'Mara said the athletic department and HAC have been separate entities for so long that she was eager
to work with Guerriero on Jam the Gym.
She also said HAC will hopefully be working with the athletic department in the
future.
When asked if school spirit and lack of
support seemed to be a problem on the

campus, students agreed both were lacking,
and activities such as Jam the Gym was a
great way to bring people together. Sigma
Kappa member Ashley Reinhold felt that

there needs to be "a lot more things like
this."

Board of Trustees discusses campus beautification
by Cynthia Graham and Amy

Eagle Eye News Editors
Dr. Dean Phelps, University vice president of Finance and Administration, delivered a special ref)ort discussing campus
beautification projects slated for the near

future at last night's Board of Trustees
meeting.
Included in these plans is the construction of an inner campus mall to be located
behind Russell Hall. The "mall" would
consist of lawns and walkways, making the
campus more attractive.
According to Phelps, several other projects are also on the drawing board. These

projects include finishing the Woolridge
Hall renovation, already in its second year,
renovating the boiler room in Rogers Gym
and renovating or rebuilding the
Courthouse Annex. There are also plans for
a new building at the Clearfield campus,
slated to be finished in December 1998.
Another topic of discussion at the meeting was the settling of the negotiations
between the faculty union, APSCUF, and
the State System of Higher Education
(SSHE). Both APSCUF and SSHE will
vote on the final proposal on Feb. 18 and
19.
University President Dr. Craig Dean
Willis said that although neither side got
everything they wanted, he felt it was a fair
compromise. However he stated, "It's not
over'until it's over."
Dr. Jeffrey Burnham, the University's
APSCUF president, also commented on the
contract settlement while at the meeting.
According to him, the contract is one that
"everyone can live with." He also said that

he was looking forward to a more harmonious relationship between the union and.
the SSHE system. He credits Willis for
keeping relations at the University running
smoothly through the negotiations.
SCC President, Larry Flint also spoke
of plans the SCC is currently working on
for the Eagle Card. He said that they are
working on expanding the use of the card
for debit transactions, laundry purposes and
as an on-line electronic voting card during
elections. Flint said he hopes to implement
the changes this semester.

The committee selected ten bands that

brought an end to the free screening. The
state funded program has experienced cutbacks in the last year. Panko said if student
interest had not been increased, the
Department of Health would not have continued to perform tests on University students.
Panko has no official documentation on
the number of HIV cases on campus.
However, she said that she is aware of "at
least one case of full blown AIDS."
Panko says she believes the testing is
beneficial, whether one student gets tested
or the whole campus does.
She added, "Students must be more sexually responsible. They should stop getting
so drunk or stoned that they do not 'emember who they went to bed with last night."

Clearfield campus to offer associate's degree in management
Beginning in the Fall of 1997, the
University's Clearfield campus will offer a
two-year associate of science degree in
management.
The new program in management will
provide several career opportunities, such
as administrative assistants and retail sales.
It will also offer a competitive edge to those
who want to own businesses or have
employment at an established company.
University President, Dr. Craig Dean
Willis shared his thoughts on the new program. He said he felt the Clearfield com-

munity has been extremely supportive, and
that "the new degree aids in the continuation in the mission of quality in education
on both campuses".
Dr. Terrell Jones, vice president of academic affairs, also gave his thoughts on the
program. "This is an excellent opportunity
to provide another career and vocational

said.

the third place team will receive $50.
Interested students should contact

Beach Party held last week.

Bentley beach party fun for all
by Amy Saticofslcy
Eagle Eye News Editor
The temperature was high in Bentley
Dining Hall during the Upper Deck Beach
Party, where University students ate boardwalk specialities and listened to classic
summertime tunes.
The event was held last Tuesday during
Upper Deck dinner hours. Each student
who ate dinner in the Upper Deck that
evening was given a "beach pass" at the
front register. The beach pass qualified
each student a chance to draw a prize out of
a giant sandbox containing 300 pounds of
sand.
Mixed in with the sand were various
stones of symbolic color. As students presented their beach passes at the sandbox,
they put a handfiil of sand in a sifter.
IVelve lucky students had green stones
sifted out of their handfuls of sand and won

^l

twelve packs of Mountain Dew. Two students were in possession of blue stones.
One student was the recipient of a Tickle
Me Elmo doll, donated by K-Mart. The
other student won a denim jacket, donated
by the Pepsi Corporation.
The grand prize winner was Aaron
Freed. He is now the proud owner of a '97
Fila mountain bike, also donated by Pepsi.
He drew the cream colored prize stone at
6:25 p.m..
Also featured at the beach party was
local hit DJ, Mark the Shark. He kept the
summer songs rolling as students ate cotton
candy and Italian ice, according to Mark
Ott, the director of Dining Services.
The event was also host to a fashion
show with clothing provided by K-Mart,
Fashion Bug and Woolrich.
Ott thought that the beach party seemed
to go over well with Univeisity students.
He said, "They were lining up at the sandbox all night until the final prize was won."

Columnist questions prices of books
How much did you spend on your
books this semester? Would you be surprised that out of the ten people I asked this
question, the least amount spent this semester was $130. The student that spent the
most was a block student who spent $412.
The good news for the block student is that
she won't have to buy any books next
semester as a result of student teaching.
Yet, if you were to divide $412 in half, you
would see it as $206 per semester.
Here are some more examples of what
different students with various majors and
credit hours are paying for
their books. A health science major with 18 credits
purchased books for $250,
and of the books that were
purchased two were used.
Also, interestingly enough,
all of this student's new books were revised
editions. I wonder, just how much of a
revision took place in any of these or other
revised books we are forced to purchase.

that neither one of these options is acceptable.
Rather than just crying about it, I have
asked some questions, and thought about
the problem. 1 will not say that this or that
should be done to fix the problem. I will
however, tell you some of the questions that
1 have asked.
First of all, just who is it that runs the
bookstore? Here is a hint, look in the mirror. Next, why can't I buy the books I need
elsewhere? Hint, have you ever tried to
find out what books you need before class-

the next semster, so just ask. It really does
cost a lot less to purchase your books elsewhere. Just about any commerciaj bookstore will be glad to order you a book if it is
not in stock. To order a book usually takes

Here are my parting shots. If you spent
$50 on a book at the beginning of a semster,
you can sell it back for a fantastic 10% of
what you spent, if your book is in good condition. Now here is the fun part, (try this),
if you were to put an identifying mark on
your book, you just might see the same
book next semester for $20 or
more. I will let you do the
math. So do you think I am a
fool to remember the Sherman
Anti-trust Act? As i..r as I
know the only legal monopoly
in America is the Milton
Bradley board game.

The Boring Column
by: Michael Boring

Here is another example. A geology
major was lucky and only had to purchase
three books, two were used, and one was
(surprise) a revised edition. He was fortunate since with 16 credits he only spent
$130. However, he got three books free
from a friend.
I could go on about the examples but I
am sure that if you are a student reading
this you, too, have recently been shellacked
in the PUB. If you are like me, I know you
are angry because of something you had to
do without, because books were (like every
semester) a bit more than expected. The
question is this, what the hell can we do
about it? Are we to grin and bare it or are
we to go without books in protest? I say

es start? Another hint, you are refused
access to the book section of the bookstore
until classes start for the reason of, they are
still getting them in order on the shelves
and other such nonsense. Or is it that they
do not want you to spend those dollars elsewhere?
Finally, is there anyone I ccftild talk to
about this problem? Hint, we have a presdient of the student body and a senator in
the SCC in every dorm and other off campus locations that are there to represent our
interests. If you do not know one personally just stop by the SCC office during the
day and ask, or go to a senate meeting that
is held bi-weekly. If you are a student you
have the right to speak about anything during the open forum time of the meeting.
The good news is this, there are a few
kind professors out there that will tell worried students what books they plan on using

That is it for this time. If you have any
comments send a letter to the Editor and I
am sure she will run it in the paper, and will
remind all of us that this is only my
(M.Boring's) opinion. Yet, I doubt I will
see much hate mail on this topic coming
from any student. On the other hand I
would keep an eye out for those who do
respond in defense of the book prices and
the current purchasing system. After all,
people have to make a living.

Opinion/Editorial-——
Intramural programs lack organization
Today is that Hallmark Holiday known
as Valentine's Day. I know it is semi-incorrect to call it a Hallmark Holiday but today
has become the one day that card shops,
candy makers and florists build their
careers around. 1 have been walking
around campus all week with a bullet-proof
vest on just in case that little bugger cupid
tries to hit me with one of his special
arrows. (I wonder if he has a license for
that thing???) Well with all this love in the
air, I guess I should write a column this
week full of love and friendship...Nah. I
guess I am going to t>e the equivalent of
Scrooge and complain on this day of love.
Today's topip has to do with the athletic
department. Just wait, before all you football players grab your clubs and start mumbling, "I am going to make that Nagy our
new tackling dummy." It is not about any
inter-collegiate sport. (That sound you
heard is every sport program breathing a
sigh of relief.) What has me in an uproar
this week is our intramural program and
lack there of.
I say lack there of because it seems we
do not have an intramural program on this
campus anymore. I have seen signs go up
this week that rosters are due, but where is
the info in advance? I tend to believe that
the intramural program on this campus
needs to be taken outside and shot. Then
the athletic department and the powers that
be can go ahead and make the program better than it is now. We need a program that
has better organization, better administration and one that is more fun. The current
program just plain stinks.
Before I continue to trash the intramural program I should explain the reasons
why I feel the way I do. First and foremost
is the organization of the program. The
organization is poor. The only time students know when events are being scheduled is when the signs for roosters go up,
and that is only a week in advance, if at all.
This is no time for people to get a team
together to compete. I know they handout
the Intramural Handbook every year but

how many people keep it long enough into
the winter and spring. Most of these books
are in the garbage a week after they are
handed out. I also wonder if off-campus
students get these handbooks, because it
seems to me they are only put in the residence halls and in Zimmerli. The whole
problem starts here and snowballs.
Another main problem is the administration of this program. Once a season
starts you are lucky to get hold of the director of the program, and you are even more
lucky if you get a referee to show up at your
game. Last fall my team had a referee show
up to only one of our
four events. We
tried to complain but
our calls were never
returned and we
never got to speak to
anybody other than
ASPEN.
The referees do
not even know when to show up. The teams
do not even know when they have to show
up. This is the type of organization which
led to the Titanic being sunk. The whole
problem is in the organization of this program.
A good example of this is last year during the Floor Hockey season. A group of
my friends practiced all year to compete in
that competition and even memorized the
rules not to be disqualified. They were
ready to rumble and fight fair. Too bad the
other team was dirty and friends with the
referees. I always thought the only sport
that was dirty was pro boxing, not LHU
intramurals. My friends called the I.M.
department and got the answering machine.
They were physically hurt in a game that
was not to allow any checking or rough
play. They finally got a hold of the person
and this person gave them the run-around.
This is not right by anybody's judgement.
If those two things are taken care of, then
the I.M. program can start being fun once
again. I believe it is time for the athletic
department to step forward and do some-

I have to give a special shout-out to my
friend Dan Kingerski and everyone associated with bringing LHU basketball to

must salute every

thing. I know of people that have gone to
the department, students who wanted to
take over the program and make it great
once again, but those requests fell upon
deaf ears. It is a shame that students show
the initiative to do something and then only
get caught up in red tape. Something needs
to be done because this problem will not go
away.

LHU Gambling Ring and Other Observations
Hi everyone...! am back. A special hello
to my loyal readers who noticed my
absence in the first two Eagle Eye's of the

focus on so this week it is another hodgepodge type deal. Read on.
First off, as per request of a new friend

Feinstein wows packed house WLHU hits the airwaves
by Andrea Picking
Eagle Eye Features Reporter_
Poet Sascha Feinstein captivated an
overflow crowd in the PUB Multi-purpose
room last Tuesday night with several selections of jazz-related poetry.
The 1995 Writer's Exchange Program
for Poetry winner began with his older
work entitled "Buying Wine," and the
poem "Christmas Eve," a work inspired by
.an argument between jazz legends Miles
Davis and Thelonius Monk. Feinstein then
shifted to a more recent work with
"Corcovado," a poem about musician Stan
Getz, who is described by Feinstein as "a
great influence." In his first live reading of
the poem, Feinstein said he hoped to capture Getz's "genius as an artist" and his
abusive nature to his wife.
Joking with the audience between

Mm

poems, Feinstein also added his experiences
with "a lot of bad poetry" when his wife was
in Singapore. According to the poet, the one
good poem that came out of the experience
was "Above and Below the Surface," which
was dedicated to his wife.
Fenstein became a jazz lover in high
school after his father introduced him to the
music. He said his poetry was inspired by
jazz because, "The music got to me."
Those attending the reading had positive
things to say about Feinstein and his work.
Student Heather Kellander said, "I didn't
think I would like it when I got here, but I
liked it, and it was interesting." Megan
Neville, a freshman, felt the reading was
"very colorful."
In addition to writing his own poetry,
Feinstein is a professor at Lycoming
College, the editor of a jazz anthology, and
has several books of his ptoetry in print.

under $3000.
Now, for those of you who are too lazy
to shop around, I have selected two notebook computers that I believe to be the best
for your buck. First is the Toshiba Satellite
Pro 430CDS. Toshiba has taken the
portable PC market by storm in the past two
years, and iscontinuously updating their
products with better hardware, while keeping the prices down.

Their Satellite Pro boasts a 1.3GB hard
disk, lOX CD-ROM drive and a n.JMHz
Pentium Processor. This PC also pecks an
11.3 inch dual-scan screen which fits into
this 7.3 pound powerhouse. There's even a
connector for the external floppy dijk drive
that enables you to use the CD-ROM and the
floppy drive simultaneously. Its lithium-1
powered battery gives you two and a half
hours of uninterrupted action. All of this for
(drum roll please) $2500!
Then there's the Winbook XP5 Pro. This
notebook will supply you with a 133MHz
Pentium Processor, 12.1 inch dual-scan
color display, 1GB hard drive, 16MB of
RAM (extendible to 40MB) and a 28.8Kbps
fax/modem. This computer also has an
option bay that will accept either an 8X CDROM, a floppy drive (both included) or an
optional second lithium battery. You'll also
receive both type II and type III slotr, a oneyear extendible warranty and Windows 95
preinstalled. And all of this fun-filled
excitement for the low price of $2699.
My personal choice would be the
Toshiba model because to see this thing in
action is very exciting. Toshiba is the future
of portable PCs and many programs that
come out for notebooks will be catered to
the Toshiba models. Sure it's a Japanese
company, but I'm an equal oppwrtunity computer user, and until the U.S. comes out with
a comparable model, I'm sticking with the
best and the chea[)est.

Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
Last Saturday six boxers competed in
the 18 bout "Keydet" Invitational in
Lexington, VA. Scoring open division wins
were Dave Fields, 125, who upped his season record to 5-0, with a split decision win
over Navy's Jason Lavarious.
Teammate Fred Druding o[>ened his collegiate career with a close 2-1 decision over
Mike Brady of Shippensburg. The shorter
Druding used a terrific body attack to narrowly win.
In one of the featured bouts, national
champion Jason Pletcher, 165, boxed a
methodical bout to decision All-American
Jason Tapp of Kentucky Wesylan College,
3-0. Both boxers looked sharp, but Pletcher
was the harder puncher.
Eric Elmer, 119, was on the losing end
of a 3-0 decision to Brandt Duttle of
Kentucky. Duttle now leads the series 2-1.
Veteran 190 founder, Tony Penecale,
boxed well but dropped a referee stopped
contest (RSQ in the third round to Navy's
Jarrod Donaldson. Penecale will drop to the
180 division for the ECBA-Northeast
Regionals in March.
LHU's sixth boxer, Tony Aquillo, 156,
received an RSC in the first round to Sager

Marshall of VMl in a novice division contest.
Head Coach Ken Cox commented, "I
was pleased with the boxers' efforts and
continued improvement. We must, however, get quicker on our feet and develop better rhythm. Our boxers also have a tendency to drop their hands, which we must correct immediately."
The boxing club will host the 18th
Annual LHU Collegiate Boxing Invitational
this Saturday, February 15, in Thomas Field
House, better known as the "House of
Noise."
There will be 16 bouts on the preliniinary card at 2:00 p.m. The main card will
start at 8:00 p.m..
Boxers from 12 universities across the
country will compete. The best team from
the far West region, the University of
Nevada-Reno, will fly in four open division
boxers, including All-Americans, Brett

In December, Lock Haven University
Director of Athletics, Sharon Taylor, represented the United States as a delegate to the
Federation Internationale Hockey (FIH).
Taylor was one of three people selected by
the United States Olympic Committee
(USOC), who met at December's congiess
in Brussels, Belgium. There are 102 members of the FIH, 47 of which were represented at the meeting to review events in the
field hockey world.
According to Taylor, the election of a
new president became the major issue at
this year's congress. Former FIH pr- sident,
Etienne Glithitch of France, retired after
eight years of service. In the federation's
first election, Juan Calzado received the
votes he needed to become president. Prior
to this election, the president usually
achieved office by being appointed.
Taylor said that she gained her nomination from prior experience as the U.S. Field
Hockey Association's representative to the
USOC's executive board since 1987.
Taylor also explained that she had the
responsibilities of foreign hospitality at the
1996 Olympic Games in Atlanta .
As head coach of the LHU Field Hockey
team, Taylor compiled an impressive record
of 331-96-27 in 23 years of being in charge.
The team nabbed four national titles along
with seven PSAC titles in that time. In her
tenth year as director of athletics, Taylor's
duties include coordinating the 16 intercollegiate sports at LHU.
Taylor added that she is getting ready to
attend an USOC meeting in Philadelphia

Haven's swim star set to Shue is dismissed for
shine at the PSAC meet the season
by KeUy O'NeiU
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter^
The women's swim team has not
received as much recognition as other sports
and activities, but a young woman with
remarkable talent is quickly changing that.
With her own unique talent and many
awards, Katie Bonner is pulling the swim
team out of the deep end and bringing the
team into the limelight.
Katie began swimming at the tender age
of four at a local swimming club in her
iiome town of Philadelphia, PA. Her parents enrolled her at the club for the sake of
safety, but she continued in swimming for
the love of the sport.
Beginning with her numerous accomplishments in high school, Bonner was all
Catholic for three years straight. She was
most improved during her junior year, and
MVP her senior year at Archbishop Ryan.
Here at Lock Haven Bonner has continued with her many accomplishments.
Her freshman year at the Haven, Bonner
was voted most improved and sixth in the
PSAC conference.
Bonner has also set five individual
school records in the 50 breast stroke, 100
breast stroke, 200 breast stroke, 1000 free
style and the 100 I.M., not to mention the
separate relay team awards.
Bonner has made many contributions
and influenced the team in many ways.
"She is a tremendous person. She is the
kind of person everyone likes to be around.

she has nothing but positive things to say
about others. We all love her," proudly
remarked Coach Justice.
Friend
and
teammate. Amber
Schmeider would not have been able to
make the transition from high school to college without Bonner. "She is great. She
made me feel right at home on the team. It
wouldn't be the same without her,"
Schmeider commented.
Bonner is now preparing for the PSAC
meet. She will be competing in the 100 and
200 breaststroke.
Even though Bonner is a little nervous
about competing, she is excited. "I'm getting better and my times are going down,"
Bonner said.
Justice is positive about the PSAC for
Bonner. She swam her fastest time of the
season against York College. "She is looking very strong and I'm very hopeful about
her dropping her time," stated Justice.
Bonner attributes her talent to her parents who have been a "positive influence,"
and Justice. "He is a good coach and a good
motivator. He keeps you going," Bonner
added.
As for her future in swimming, Bonner
is not sure. She plans to take a couple years
off, then maybe move on to the masters'
competition.
For now Bonner is majoring in social
work and minoring in Spanish. Besides
swimming, she is involved in the Social
Work Club.
Good luck to Katie and the rest of the
swim team at the PSAC championships.

Bald Eagle basketball guard Michael
Shue was dismissed for the season last
week for disrespecting a team coach during
practice on February 4.
The incident occurred when Shue
reportedly called an assistant coach a
derogatory name. Head Coach Brad Bross
then threw Shue out of practice, and told
him that he would have to report to his
office and apologize the next day if he
wanted to play in the next game.
Senior Shue didn't show up and was
suspended for one game. It was then decided to dismiss him for the season. The incident alone would not have warranted a dismissal but Bross commented that this was
not the first time something like this happened. "This was not a great surprise," he
said.
But Shue was adamant to point out his
innocence in the matter. "I was just kidding
around," he proclaimed. "He (Bross) didn't
hear me right." According to Shue, Bross
misunderstood what he said and began to
yell and curse at him. The star player
believed Bross was acting out of disrespect.
"I was waiting for him to apologize to me,"
Shue explained. "He told me that it was just
coaching."
Shue did agree with Bross that this has
been an ongoing conflict. They've been
having problems since Shue's freshman
year.
Shue was very upset because he

found out about his dismissal through the
media before he was told by team officials.
His parents were also informed by the local
media in Dover, Pa., before Mike was told.
Shue, who has now lost his scholarship,
regrets that any of this had to happen. "I
feel bad for my parents and my teammates
because they've been so supportive." Shue
explained. "Everything I've accomplished
doesn't mean as much now.
It really
hurts."
The successful guard broke the scoring
record three weeks ago, but now that record
will be fro:)en until another player comes in
and breaks it. Shue's dream to play basketball after college is also in jeopardy.
According to Shue, he's not the only
player that has had problems with Bross.
He was not happy with the basketball program when he got here his freshman year,
but he was persuaded to stay by former
head coach, David Blank. Ironically Blank
himself resigned and then assistant coach
Bross was appointed the position.
Shue is doubtful for the future of the
team. "He's not going to get players to
play for him because they don't respect
him," he explained. "If he wasn't coaching,
we would've won the close games like
Clarion and Edinboro."
Bross was less critical of Shue however.
"Mike's a very good player and a good
friend to the other players on the team," he
said. The future of the team is uncer'vn but
Bross ensures they will have a much different look next year.

Strikers win battle against Gettysburg
by Dustin Miller
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
The men's volleyball team exploded
right from the start and swept a best of five
series against Gettysburg in their last home
game of the season on Sfinday.
Lock Haven beat a rusty Gettysburg
team with scores of 15-8, 15-7, and 15-5.
Gettysburg, playing in its first match of the
season, looked like an inexperienced team
as LHU took advantage of their mistakes.
Set number one of the series proved to
be no contest for the Bald Eagles as they
pulled out to a quick 7-1 start and held a
comfortable lead throughout the rest of the
set. Gettysburg could not seem to keep the
ball in play on their serves and looked frustrated as the Haven had them running all
over the court.
Gettysburg opened up the second set
with a 4-1 lead and looked like they might

VOLLEYBALL
have worked out the kinks, but the Bald
Eagles went on a 13-0 run to put them up
for good and dig a grave for Gettysburg.
The third set looked like a replica of set
one as LHU tore through the gates early
with a 9-2 run and finished the sweep of
Gettysburg.
Brad McAninch was hitting the ball
with authority all day long as he piled up
seven kills and five blocks for the team.
John Carlisle also hit the ball well contributing 10 kills and three blocks to help
the team in their sweep of Gettysburg.
LHU appeared to look like a well oiled
machine on the court, but captain Jarod
Christian did not think so. "We didn't execute well and we have to work on many of
our mistakes," he said. McAninch agreed.

"We were rusty. We have to make things
run smoother and work on cutting out mistakes."
Lock Haven, now 4-2, has 10 more
games, all of which are on the road. The
team's next match will be this Saturday at
Bucknell against Bloomsburg and host
Bucknell.
But with all the road games coming up,
this doesn't seem to bother Christian. He
says that it is nice to play at home, but said
it costs too much for them to pay the officials at home games.
McAninch agreed, but added, "Even
though a lot of fans don't show up for the
games, we don't get intimidated, and we
havfe lots of confidence which we may not
have on the road."
As for the season outlook, they feel they
can finish in the top three or four in the
league. Co-captain Scott Ranch said, "If we
play to our full potential and play like we

are capable of playing, we have a shot to finish second in the league." McAninch added,
"We're definitely having lots of fun and
making it exciting. I have a lot of confidence in the team and the outlook I give is
two thumbs up."
The players believe the team has lots of
confidence and a good record, but the season is still young and they know they have a
long road ahead of them.

Ladies continue their losing ways
by Chris Gemberling
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter_
The Lady Eagles lost out to fate once
again, as they dropped two games over the
past week, along with their record to 8-14
on the year. The first came at the hands of
California, who defeated the Haven by a
score of 62-53 on a Senior Day that
Shannon Bowers will remember.
Bowers picked a great day for her coming out party. She finished the game with a
double-double, leading the team in p)oints
*with 15 and rebounds with 10. "Shannon
had the best offensive performance of her
entire career here tonight," commented
Coach Frank Scarfo on Bowers'outstanding
performance.
Bowers sparked the team, down 18-9 at
one point, with 11 points to keep the score
33-25 by the half, despite Cal shooting an
impressive 50 percent from the field. The
CU lead was cut to seven at various
moments of the second half, but the Lady
Eagles just couldn't put together a serious
run at the lead.
Becky Peter finished the game with 12
points, and Amy Nickles added 10 for
another solid performance from the bench.
"We lacked the experience down the
stretch," said Scarfo. "If we could've taken
care of the ball better it would've been a different game."
Once again the Lady Eagles were hampered by injuries, with Missy Witters coming off of knee surgery, Kara Deats, and a
hobbling Terri Johnson all watching from
the bench.
Going into the game on Wednesday
night, the Lady Eagles needed to win their
last three conference games to make a concrete bid for the post season. Fate, once
again, bit the Lady Eagles in the tail feathers
as they met up with a Shippensburg team
that was 19-3 on the season, and came in
Wednesday night riding a six game winning
streak on Jam the Gym Night in Thomas
Field House.

Eagles a decisive 89-69 loss. The Haven
hung close at the half, only trailing 31-22 to

The second half was much the same
once the Lady Eagles overcame their struggle to get out of the locker room. "We came
out flat, and they took advantage," said
Scarfo.

Kolat joins Centurians as grapplers win
by Chris Nagy
Eagle Eye Sports Reporter^
The Bald Eagle wrestling team returned
home last weekend and welcomed two top
25 teams into Thomas Field House with victories in two very close matches. The
Lehigh Engineers were the first team into
the Held house on Friday night.
Lehigh came into the match ranked 25th.
Lock Haven won 20-19 thanks to bonus
points. Both LHU and Lehigh won five
matches on the evening, but bonus points at
118, 150 and 158 gave LHU the cushion
they needed.
Mike Kusick started it off for the Haven
at 118 with a 13-1 major decision over Mike
Sferra. Lehigh grabbed a 7-4 lead after a
decision and a major decision at 126 and
134 respectively.
LHU then sent up their 1-2-3 punch of
Cary Kolat, Mike Rogers and Brian Leitzel.
Kolat showed everyone why he is one of the
most dominating wrestlers in the country
with a 13-8 decision over Chris Ayres at
142. Kolat's win was number 99 on his
career.
Rogers showed Marat Vigdorchik the
lights with a pin in 4:33 at 150. The win
gave the grapples the lead, 13-7, and they

never trailed from there.
Captain Brian Leitzel scored a major
decision at 158. With a little foreshadowing, the bonus point Leitzel picked up in this
match was the winning margin.
Down 17-7, Lehigh scored a decision at
167. Then Mike Guerin notched career win
98 with a 5-4 decision over John Van Doren
at 177. Guerin's win put Lock Haven up by
10 at 20-10.
The match was still in Lehigh's grasp,
but Kevin Drew put a damper into Lehigh's
victory plans with a 3-2 decision at 190 and
did not give up any bonus points. Lehigh
picked up a pin at heavyweight to make the
final score 20-19.
The 17th ranked Bald Eagles then invited the Panthers of Pittsburgh into Thomas
Field House on Saturday night. The Bald
Eagles won yet another close one 19-16.
The same five wrestlers won for the Bald
Eagles again with bonus points once again
being the deciding factor.
Kusick started the match off in an exciting fashion, winning 2-1 with a last-second
takedown. Kusick was down 1 -0 at the end
of the second period and then surprised
everyone by choosing the neutral position to
start the third jjeriod. "Mike wrestled that
kid last year and he rode him out for the

whole two minutes. So we made the choice
for him to be on his feet," said LHU Head
Coach Carl Poff. "Mike sets the tone for us.
He is wrestling well and is Siich a competetor."
Lock Haven fell behind again after the
126 and 134 bouts, but Kolat quickly put
Lock Haven back on top. Kolat pinned
Mike Dixon in 2:33 for career win 100.
More importantly it gave the Haven a 9-7
lead.
Kolat become the second LHU wrestler
to win career match 100 after Rogers hit the
milestone two weeks ago in the PSAC
championships.
Forty-seven of Kolat's 100 wins have
come from pins. Rogers scored a 15-6
major decision over Kevin Johnson at 150.
Lock Haven now held a 13-7 lead over the
Panthers.
Leitzel increased the Bald Eagle lead
after a 4-2 decision over Pitt's Jacob Schaus.
The 167 bout was the most exciting of the
night when Neil Barnes took nationally

ranked John Withrow into overtime for a
ride-out in which Withrow was on top and
successfully rode out Barnes for the win.
Guerin took a step closer to the 100 win
milestone with a 6-1 decision over Bryan
Matusic. The Bald Eagles held a 19-10 lead
after the 177 bout. Drew lost another heartbreaking 3-2 decision at 190.
'
The match came down to the heavyweight bout. Bill Bell lost a 3-1 decision
but Lock Haven won the match 19-16^
•
"We came into these matches thinking
that who gets the bonus points would win.
The same five guys won for us each night
and these were two big wins for u..," said
Poff.
Clarion comes to Thomas Field House
tonight, and they will not be bringing candy
and flowers for the Bald Eagles. "Clarion is
always a tough match. They have 4-5 guys
that are good," added Poff. The grapplers
will be hoping to turn this match into the
Valentine's Day massacre.
The action starts at 7:30 p.m. tonight
with special attention being paid to the 177
bout as Guerin tries to become the third
Bald Eagle wrestler this season to win
career match 100. Guerin will become the
11th wrestler since 1980 to win 100 matches if he wins tonight.

Wynings leads the Haven
at Bucknell Invitational
by Amy Yarger
Eagle Eye Sports Editor_
A long day, tough competition and tired
legs are all signs of a good track and field
meet, and last Saturday's meet was no
exception. The Bucknell Classic always
proves to be one of the most competitive
meets of the season.
Despite the powerhouses which were
represented, LHU had several place winners
and many stellar perform£(hces.
High jumper, Aaron Wynings was the
highest place winner of the day. Wynings
finished third in the field with a jump of
6'6". Wynings was edged out by only one
jumper from the PSAC.
Kyle Waite, a consistent point earner for
Lock Haven, threw the shot put 46'5" to
earn fifth place honors.
Going the distance, Ben Steward was the
final place winner for the men, finishing
fifth in the 5000 meters with a time of 15:32.
Steward's time was a f)ersonal record for
him and good enough to bump him up to
number three on Lock Haven's top five list.
"It was by far the most tactical race I

TRACK and

FIELD

have ever run," Steward commented. "If I
can run another race like that, I believe I can
break the record and qualify for the ECAC
meet."
Teammate, Alex Sherwood also ran his
way into the 5000 meters top five list, taking
the number four spot with a time of 16:23.
The 500 meter school record fell when
Andy Welk crossed the finish line with a
time of 1:08.9. Welk won his heat of the 500
but fell shy of placing in the event.
On the women's side, Amy Parkes was
the Haven's highest place winner with her
fourth place finish in her signature event, the
55 meter hurdles.
Betsy Moore finished fifth in the high
jump behind a field of Division I jumpers,
with a leap of 5'4 1/2".
The final place winner for the ladies
came in the 55 meter dash with an eighth
place finish for Tamara Vreeland in 7.68.
The track team will travel to Cornell
University in New York to compete in an
invitational tomorrow.

With her own unique talent and many awards, Katie Bonner is pulling
the swim team out of the deep end and bringing them into the limelight. See
