According to SCC accounts,
nearly one thousand people

working the event, which helped
it run smoothly.
Attractions like the inflated

Army Corps of Cadets closed
out the year with there annual

military ball last weekend

Those in attendance made
the night one to remember with

Klynot, Adjuctant General of thc
Pennsylvania National Guard
The General spoke of the heavy
burden the future military leaders will have upon their shoulders as they lead thc Army into
the millennium.

Dean Willis, spoke briefly on
how he was enthused by how
well the program was doing and
what an accomplishment to witness the establishment of LHU's
own Battalion is. In past years
the Eagle Battalion worked in
conjunction with the Penn State

Battalion.
Along with alumni, other
special guests included the Army
Reserve Recruiting Station from
State College, the National
Guard Recruiters from the 728th
MSB in Lock Haven, the Lock
Haven VFW and Veteran Affairs

everything is planned by the senior cadets and it is the final chapter of their era at Lock Haven."
The night included a social
gathering with dinner, honoring
of the colors remarks from the
head of LHU ROTC program
Lieutenant Colonel Allan T. St.
Andre, a slide show and dancing.

well, it's truer than true.
This past weekend I had a
conversation with one of my regular customers about what con-

concluded that if you drive a
pick up truck, chew snuff, drink
beer out of a can for sustenance
and know the names and cars of
all thc NASCAR drivers, than
you are a redneck. It wasn't
quite as an extensive list as Jeff
Foxworthy's but it defiantly fit

people around here.
Something else that intrigues
me about this town, or rather this
county is the fact that they have

where, for charity, gun-loving

The Eagle Eye

A look at Lock Haven
This week I have decided to
offer you a variety of different
topics that I will express my
knowledge, opinions, or just
plain B.S. about. If anyone
watches the Simpsons, you may
remember the episode a few
weeks ago where they did 22
short films about Springfield.
Well, here are 10 short stories
about Lock Haven.

Be nice to the pizza delivery man.
How many times a week do
you order pizza? One, two, five?
Depending upon your activities,
it may be more than any human
could possibly eat. Well, I just
want you to think about the person who is making the trip to
your home or dorm to bring you
that dinner or late night feast.

Remember that most times

the person who is delivering is a
college student who is actually
out working to try to make a little money to help with the bills,
so a fifteen cent tip is a little low.
Also, don't yell at the delivery man if your pizza is late.
Chances are that there are 50
other starving students who have
ordered pizza all at the same
time and he is only one person.
Also, the fault may not lie on his
head. Whoever it is back at
headquarters who makes the pizza may be slacking.

Finally, be nice for the plain
reason of justbeing polite. If you
aren't that nice, the delivery man
might remember that for next
time. Remember, he is the last
person that has handled your
pizza and if you aren't feeling
too good after eating that pizza,
you might know why.

Even if it is sunny when
you leave the house, be

prepared for rain.

You know what I am talking
about. It is like a tropical rain
forest here in Lock Haven, without the tropical. I can't tell you
how many times I have left my
house on a sunny day and right
when I reach campus, the rain
hits hard and I am left without an
umbrella and return home look-

ing like a drowned rat.
No matter what the weather
channel tells you it is going to be
like thc following day, always
depend on a chance of rain in
Lock Haven.
Take an umbrella with you at
all times, there is a 75 percent
chance that you will need it,
even in the middle of a drought
and it hasn't rained for months.

The Eagle Eye
fieds section

Classi-

I am not trying to pick on
anyone in particular or to discourage anyone from sending in
classifieds, but since my three
years of being here at Lock
Haven, I have come to one con-

clusion about this section of the
newspaper... we should change
the name to Greek Corner.
Every time I read it, all I see
are these little blurbs to sisters
and bigs and little's and Z love
this and Z love that. And what
the heck is ZLAM? I know that
it is an acronym for something
or other but it just gets annoying
after a while.
What I would like to do is
encourage everyone on campus
to put one classified in at least
once a semester and give the
page a little bit of a twist every
once in a while.

I would also like to say that
what is written in this "short story" is the opinion of myself and
of no one else on the Eagle Eye
staff.

Surviving Bentley
Remember that first time you
experienced Bentley's fine dining? It was most likely at a campus visitation where they deliberately serve the good stuff. The
chicken patties and mac and
cheese. You were probably impressed by the food and remember your tour guide telling you
that there was quite an array of
foods to pick from.
What that tour guide convienently forgot to mention was
the fact that after about thc first
month or so, you would be completely sick of eating there. And
I do mean SICK.
I can't tell you how many
times I've gone to Bentley and
enjoyed my meal while I was
there eating, but about an hour
later when I returned home, I
soon found myself with terrible
stomach cramps. Makes you
look forward to going back
doesn't it?
The truth is that you will survive it in the end if you take it in
small doses. Three meals a day
at upstairs Bentley and you may
find yourself spending more
time at the Infirmary than at

class.

Variety is the spice of life.
Try downstairs Bentley, The Eagle Wing Cafe, order a pizza, get
take out or fast food, or"' make
the ever famous Ramen Noodles
in your room.
I know that you have a meal
plan that your parents paid good
money for, but I think that they
would rather see you healthy
with a few unused meals than
out of meals and sick.

Bald Eagle football

I don't know about you, but I
remember as an incoming freshman I was told that the football
team was a work in progress. On
campus visitation day we were
told that the football team had a
down season that past year, but
things looked promising for the
year to to come.
Well, I have been here for
three years and have yet to see
the Bald Eagles win more than
three games in any one season.
I am hot saying that we don't
have the talent, because I am
sure that we do, I've been to
games, I know that we can play,
but what are we doing with this
talent?

I am sure that it doesn't help
that the head coach has quit to
go work with the NFL Europe.
All I can hope is that he can recruit better athletes for the NFL
than he could for us.

Parking will always be a

problem

No matter what day of the
week, what time of the day or
what part ofcampus you are on,
there is always a parking problem on hand.
We tore down the old silk
mill to make room for more
parking correct? Well, where is
the parking lot?
I feel very bad for thc commuters that have an eight o'clock class and get here at seven
o'clock and still can't find a
parking spot in the PUB lot.
No matter what we do to try
to solve this problem, it is always going to exist. No matter
what we do there will never be
enough parking spots across
campus.
Do we really need all those

Jeopardy is another story. I
have watched Jeopardy for the

longest time and love it. I think
that Alex Trebek has taught me
more about English, the Arts,
History and all that stuff than
any one of my professors here
have.
Also, there are those ever important shows that you either set
the VCR or skip class for. I mean
really, how many opportunities
will you have to see Jerry
Springer's "I'm a pregnant prostitute?" That is definitely a good
excuse for missing Philosophy
or English Literature.
If you are as addicted to soap
opera's as some people I know
are, you rarely make it to class at
one o'clock because you are too
interested in what Stefano will
do next to the people of Salem.
To some, these fictional characters are the only family they
have.
So, its a matter of priority.
Class and getting through college in less than a decade may be
important to some, but for others
they can learn all they need from
Regis, Alex and Ben Stein.

The Texas, fun for the
whole family

What else can I say but that
this is the best thing that Lock
Haven has to offer, besides WalMart of course.
How many times have you
found yourself at the Texas late
at night when you are in need of
grease and a good laugh. The
Texas sure has a vast supply of
both.
I thought that the Texas
sounded like a place that I would
go at 3 a.m. and find a bunch of
drunk college kids an their way
reserved for the president 24 home from the bars. Well, that is
hours a day spots in front of not the case. Every time I have
Bentley ? And God forbid if we been to the Texas what I found
park in a ten minute spot for was that I was usually one of the
twelve minutes without our only college kids there. It was alflashers on, you have just made ways packed with drunk townies, who are actually quite funny
Law Enforcement's day.
How much money does this to watch.
The only thing about the
campus make a year on parking
tickets? I can't count how many Texas that bothers me, beside the
times a day that I see someone heart burn and clogged arteries,
from Law Enforcement walking is the fact that the sign outside
says open 24 hours, but I have
around campus giving out tickyet to see that happen. There
ets. I think that it is enough that
they can afford to make more were several times that I was
kicked out because they were
parking lots available.

Television or class
Since the premier of Who
Wants to be a Millionaire I have
learned so much information.
More than I have from my classes here at LHU? That's a good
question. Granted, much of the
so called knowledge on the show
is useless, but I can still remember those things.

their bikes. That's all they do all
day long. I am not sure, but none
of them look old enough to be
out of school and even if they
were, why would they be on a
bike?
Then you have the one kid
that is just plain frightening. He
looks about 40 years old, has a
beard and is always riding
around with these two young
boys. This makes me wonder.
I can't decide whether or not
I like this kid. Every time I see
him he has this odd look on his
face and I am afraid that if I
don't lock my door at night, he
might break in and do something
freaky. We have all decided that
he has "child molester" written
all over him.
So, if you see these kids
around your neighborhood, be
afraid, be very afraid.

Finally, I have decided to

end with something that has
brought me, my housemates and
my neighbors much, well, pain

throughout the year.
For anyone who lives on
West Church Street, you know
who I am talking about when I
say Dottie.

Recently what I have been
doing is if I see her staggering

down the street and I am sitting
on my front porch, I will run
away. Inside, around the house,
jump into the bushes, whatever
it takes to dodge another bullet.
Dottie is a cool lady, but
there are only so many times you
can listen to her complain about
her son, her leg, her life or how
her doctor said that she could
only have two drinks a dav so
she buys forties.
There have been so many
times that I have had the unfortunate privilege of running into
her on her way home from the
bar and actually had to offer to
help her out because she can't
make it on her own.
It's hard to feel sorry for
Dottie because she has brought a
lot of her problems on herself.
No matter how many times I've
talked to her, she still can't remember my name. It's always
"honey this" and "honey that."
"Honey, do you have anything to

drink?"

closing.
Is there anything besides
Wal-Mart and Dunkin' Donuts in
this town that is open 24 hours?

All I can say is that if you
have the chance, you must experience her for yourself, you will
never be the same again!

Elain Gonzalez is a child, not a political weapon
Barbara Ransby

TMS Campus
Elian Gonzalez should be
treated like a child. Instead, he
has become a political trophy.
When the mayor of MiamiDade, Alex Penelas, declared recently that local police would
not aid federal authorities in implementing a decision by the
Justice Department, the scene
was strangely reminiscent of the
stand off over school desegregation in the 1950s and '60s.
Forty years ago, the issue

he return of a 6-year-old boy to
lis home and father in Cuba.
In each case, local authorities
capitulated to the demands of
right-wing mobs and their
threats of mass unrest or violence.
Elian Gonzalez has become

the poster child for Miami's anti-Castro Cuban community. As
the mother of a 6-year-old child
myself, I wonder what must be
going through this boy's head.
He loses his mother in a
hellish ordeal. He winds up in
the arms of a group of strangers
who shower him with gifts, trinkets, trips to Disney World and
an instant celebrity that borders
on the surreal.
When did this child grieve?
Why was he not allowed the
consolation of his closest relatives, the people who nurtured
him for the first six years of his
life. How might a 6-year-old interpret this erasure of his past?
Elian has been hoisted on the
shoulders of so-called supporters, draped in the American flag
and paraded around in front of
shouting crowds. He has been
pushed in front of television
cameras and asked to air his
most intimate feelings about the
most traumatic event in his

young life
mother.

—

the death of his

This is more than exploitation. It borders on child abuse.
Elian's Miami relatives say he
should be able to decide where
he wants to live. Of course, the
child has bonded with the adults
who have cared for him for the

last few months. He is dependent
on them for his daily sustenance.
This does not mean a small child
is the best judge of what his
needs are or who could best
meet them.
My child is not capable of
such a decision. She would eat
candy all day and watch television all night if I allowed it. It
would not be surprising if Elian
wanted to stay longer at the circus.
The mood swings of thc
crowd outside the Gonzalez residence in Miami says more
about their politics than their
banners do. The glee on the
faces
of the
anti-Castro

protesters whenever they have
stalled Elian's return is inappropriate given the complex and serious trauma this child is still re-

covering from.
But it is telling. It reveals
that the protesters care less about
Elian's pain or loss than about
their vendetta against Fidel Castro. Children have been growing
up normally in Cuba for the past
four decades. These children
play soccer and baseball. They
have a higher literacy rate than
many school districts in the
United States. They have guaranteed health care. They are not
dying in the streets, as some critics have suggested.
I am not a fan of Castro.
However, I do know that much
of the suffering Elian might ex-

perience in Cuba has a lot to do
with thc U.S.-backed economicblockade, which has caused
shortages and increased poverty
there.
I also know that children all
over thc world, including in this
country, manage to grow up well
in difficult circumstances when
they have the benefit of a loving
home and family.
Those who have rallied
around young Elian are exploiting him for their own purposes.
That is a grave disservice to a little child. Energies would be better spent rallying to end the
racism and poverty that reduce

the life chances of all children
from the United States to the
Caribbean.

Down in the vast, massive vaults ofTthe Eagle Eye, where we store a mountain ofarchival
material of Lock Haven's past, are numerous
photos showing the way things were. These are
the forgotten memories that filled numerous
newspapers and yearbooks, from a time when
students had enough spirit to actually want a
yearbook. Ofall of these, the seventies and
eighties provided the greatest amusement and
education about the student body's past. To
spend some time looking through these old,
waxy pictures, one gains two insights into the
students ofLock Haven University.
The first is the obvious; fashion certainly has

changed around here. No doubt the girls, and
guys, who feathered back their hair thought they
were hot stuff. And to strut around campus with
a giant boom box on your shoulder was another
tell-tale sign of someone who was with it. Yes,
the clothing only seemed to be chic when tight.
The running shorts were so small and tight that
they were particularly indecent by today's standards. The jeans made you wonder if any blood
was reaching a girl's feet. The students look like

You can almost
hear "Beat It"
playing as they
talked in the
slang of their
day. It is
enough to
make us laugh
and wonder
what they were
thinking at the
time... but

ago you begin to realize that our own were just
as particular in the 90s. One can almost hear the
laughter from the future mocking our look that
we work so hard on each day. The baggy clothes
that seemed designed to hide any trace of gender.
The jeans that hung so far down on the hips you
swore that the wearer might lose them at any
moment. Balleaps were worn more frequently
than ever before.
The hairstyle might not be feathered back,

but what will those in the future say about the
current trends? Plastered with gel, short and
straight like Mike Brady, and more recently, the
front bent up like a person ran headlong into the
wall. Right now the Gap and Old Navy clothing
seems natural to wear, but how ridiculous will
cargo pants and tech vests seem down the road.
Fashion is fleeting, and so as we mock the
past, we do so knowing it will happen to us. Perhaps the only time we will feel vindicated then,
is when our styles are picked up by some future
generation.
The second insight may or may not be so obvious; we really aren't all that different after all
these years. To look at the photos of yesteryear,
you see students who had pretty much the same
fears and ambitions as we do. They were just as
concerned with fitting in, making the grade, getting a date and going to a hopping party offcampus. In essence, the look of a student may change but their desires
really don't. It is still a student
body worrying about their grades,
their residence hall and their
friends. Perhaps one generation is
a little more interested in world issues and another is interested in
fashion, but all in all they are still
just kids try ing to have fun before
they are forced out into the oh-

BUT CAN ANYONE VOUCH
FOR HER CHARACTER?
Alice Tirado, whose son who was about to be
sentenced fortwo gang-related murders, came to
court in Fayetteville, N.C, to testify as a character witness on his behalf.
But she never gotto vouch for the lad's moral
integrity because she was so drunk that she was
stopped by police as she was about to enter the
courtroom, and obligingly admitted that she had

Just then, the returning thiefdrove by with the
third stolen trailer, which clipped the policeman's
car.
A slow-speed chase followed, ending with the
man's arrest.
OTHER THAN THAT,
HE WAS QUALIFIED
Shirley Turner thought her victory was assured
in the election for a seat on the Board of Education of Kingfisher County, Okla., because, after
all, her opponent was dead.
But the voters, perhaps not thinking that a candidate's death should disqualify him, chose the
late Rodney Hobbs, who died in February of an
aneurysm, over Turner, 104-63.

IFAT FIRST YOU DON'T SUCCEED
A thief stole a utility trailer from a Home Depot store in Albuquerque, N.M., attached it to his
pickup truck, and drove off. A few miles later, it
came loose and crashed, so he went back and stole

Both Holt, 37, and Machin, 40, lost their jobs

TINY BOO DOESN'T LOOK WELL
Frantic because her pet Vietnamese potbellied
pig, named Tiny Boo, was missing, Sadie Emerson drove all around her Deming, N.M., neighborhood looking for it.
She finally found Tiny Boo at an outdoor barbecue being served as the main course. An angry
confrontation ensued. The host of the event said
he had shot the 50-pound pig when it attacked
him. He faces animal cruelty charges.

MEADOW'S SECRET REVEALED
Playing Mafia princess Meadow Soprano,
Jamie-Lynn Sigler knows all about keeping family secrets. But when it comes to her private life,

the actress is a lot more forthcoming,
"I had anorexia," says Sigler, who appeared in
the season finale ofHBO's "The Sopranos" Sunday night.
"When I was going through myeating disorder, it was the loneliest time ofmy life. I was so
unhappy. I didn't want to go out. Now I may not
be the thinnest girl in the world, but I'm happy and
I feel good."
The 18-year-old actress, who conquered the
disease two years ago, is now a spokeswoman for
the American Anorexia and Bulimia Association."
I would like to tell girls how I got through it,"
Sigler says,
She also has one powerful protector. James
Gandolfini, who plays mob boss Tony Soprano on
the hit series, acts like her dad even off the set,
Sigler says.
"Whenever I'm on the phone with my
boyfriend, James grabs it out ofmy hand and starts
yelling at him, telling him he'd better treat me
right."

Upbeat charm and mesmerizing
performances mark "28 Days"
Director Betty Thomas' "28 Days" has been
lauded in the press recently, both for its strong female lead role and its strong female director.
While these two elements of the film are both admirable, it takes more than just one good, juicy role
and a skilled director to make a movie worth seeing. That's not to say that "28 Days" falls flat on
its face, but one leaves this movie wishing it would
have been better than it actually is.
Sandra Bullock is Gwen Cummings, an alcoholic, painkiller-addicted writer and party girl who
is assigned by a court to spend-yep, you guessed
it-28 days in rehabilitation. Her path to inevitable
redemption (this ain't "Leaving Las Vegas") is an
invariably rocky one, as she is both pulled up by
her discussion group (which includes Mike O'Malley, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, and a pathetically underused Viggo Mortensen) and pushed back down

by her enabling boyfriend Jasper (Dominic West). character. The overall direction is more than able; ends up feeling more like a showcase for Bullock's

M major theme this week. On Monday and
y Tuesday you might make some extra

out how much you've got. Travel looks too complicated on Wednesday; Thursday's a little better.
Do what an older person wants on Friday. You're
learning a lot, some ofit from your dreams. Keep
a pencil and paper near the bed, especially over
the weekend.
/>Cancer (June 22-JuIy 22). Friends and
groups are important this week.

If You're Having a Birthday This Week:

April 24: Travel could be your reward for a job
well done. You're lucky in May ifyou stick to the
routine.
April 25: Reach out and make a friend far away.
Don't let old fears block a new relationship.
April 26: At first a dream seems to be impossible, but don't give up. Later a surprising development leads to success.
April 27: First one test, then another, must be
passed. With study and persistence, the prize can
be attained.
April 28: Finish old business first, or a new project could fall flat. Get the facts; then trust your
intuition. Don't rush things.
April 29: Friends are there for you this year, but
not always in the way that you expect. A spiritual
connection brings luck in May.
April 30: You're lucky and powerful all year.
Add faith, hope and love, and you'll help others
heal.

It turns out that tea tree oil
has been around for centuries.
In 1770, British sailor James
Cook and his crewmates, who
were exploring Australia's eastern coast, stumbled upon an unusual species of small trees that
were growing in swampy, lowland areas. The crewmen picked
the sticky, fragrant leaves and
boiled them into a tea (hence the

They should have called the
plant a "healing tree," because
the native Aborigines had already been using the plant for
some time to clean and heal
wounds.
By the 1930s, the oil was a
widely respected medicinal
product in that country. In fact,
Australian tea tree growers were

World War II until a sufficient

occasion.
Of course you have to use
the oil with care, but a large part
of the benefit of tea tree oil is
that it soothes irritation without
creating a different irritation
(like other pimple medications
or topical solutions often do).
You simply have to be careful
applying the fully concentrated
solution to sensitive areas or
open wounds.
Most oils come with directions on how to dilute and/or
mix the concentrated oil with
water, lotions, or other ingredi-

ents to achieve the best results.
There are also several books
available that give detailed and
legitimately referenced instructions on how to use the product.
In addition, companies such as
Thc Body Shop currently sell a
line of prepared products containing tea tree oil, which eliminates the" guess work."
Obviously, I cannot say I

I Wm\\m

covered this "wonder oil." I sure
am glad I discovered it for my-'
self, though. Now I have my
dad using it; he really benefits
from it because he plays the fiddle and also works outside so his
hands get torn up pretty easily.
My boyfriend uses it on his,
body and face, and even washeshis hair with it. (He has a hard
time using heavily perfumed

shampoos because they irritate

his scalp, but this soothes it.)
You might not be able to find
it around here, unless you order
it over the internet. If you live
close to a Body Shop, consider
buying a bar of soap or a bottle
of oil and giving it a try. I can
virtually guarantee that you
won't be sorry. (And if you are,
you can just give it to me!)
So, consumer to consumer, if
you arc looking for a new item to
add to your old routine, this is
my pick. 1 hope your results are
as good as mine!
Have a great weekend, enjoy
the extra day off, be it with family, friends, a good book or simply the sunshine... See you next

week!

Oh, brot er:
Chris Fuller
Outdoors Columnist

Did you ever know that guy
who could always do something
better than you? You know the
friend that I'm talking about.
He's the one that doesn't study
for a test and always gets a higher grade than you. This is the
same friend who will always hit
the grand slam and get the girl,
all in one day... and still make it
home by midnight.
Well this certain friend of
mine happens to be my big
brother Jimmy: he's that guy.
He always does things better
than I do, but he vary rarely
makes it home before midnight.
All my life I grew up very
close to my older brothers, and I
was especially close to "brutha
Jimmy." I have probably spent
more time in the woods with
Jimmy than any other person,
and still the man never ceases to
amaze me.
He always shoots bigger
deer and catches bigger fish. I
don't know what it is, but I have
probably hunted and fished with
this man over 100 times and can
count on one hand the times that
I outdid him in a contest.
It doesn't matter if we're
ilaying home run derby at camp
>r the old "dollar on the first
ish" game. I always wind up
wing him a dollar at the end of
tie day.
Take for example one aftertoon when we were deer hunt-

I had been sitting atop this
power line for approximately
three hours waiting for the deer
to arrive. After some time a
group of four deer appeared. It
was only after 20 minutes that I
realized one of these deer had
antlers on it, if that's what you
wanted to call them. I shot a little spike that day that was barely legal. I felt good about it
though.
I had only one day to deer
hunt that year due to academic
engagements so I decided that a
spike was just fine for me.

l^i^i^V
Mm.'

hemorrhoids, ingrown hair, jock
itch, lice, psoriasis, ringworm,
sore throat, stings, sunburn,
ticks, toothache, or warts. The
list goes on and on; just trust me
when I say that this stuff will
come in handy on more than one

Shortly after I shot the deer my
brother arrived and congratulated me. I told him where I had
been standing and advised him
to stand in the same place.
An hour later I was awoken
from a nap in the truck by a gunshot. I knew from the direction
the shot came from that it was
indeed Jimmy.
Sure enough, Jimmy eventually showed up dragging a beautiful eight pointer. I then learned
that he shot the deer from the exact same spot that I was standing. To make matters worse, my
brother shot that deer less than
20 yards away.
As the buck was approaching him, it proceeded to get its
antlers tangled in a group of
grapevines, thus presenting Jimmy with the shot of a lifetime. It
was not surprising; after all these
years I was used to it.
All he could do was lick his
finger, raise it in the air to make
a number one symbol and mutter
the words "king bag." (This was
the way that he has teased me
my whole life- and things obviously were not changing.)
Trout fishing is no exception.
Two years ago I had gotten separated from Jimmy while trout
fishing on the opening day. After a while I meandered back
down to where he was.
I simply asked him the same
question that all anglers ask one
another, "Did you catch anything?" He didn't even s?y a 1
word; he simply raised his
stringer that held a fat old brown
trout that was probably in thc 17
to 18 inch range. Of course, following the raising ofthe stringer
came the raising of the rituaj
number one.
I usually don't play these
games with anyone else but Jim, 1
my. I try not to bask in the glory of the kill or the catch. Only
when I'm with James will I puff
my chest out like I'm the mighty
outdoorsman. I will say this: I
did outdo Jimmy this year. He
still has a few more turkeys to
kill, but I'm sure he will catch
up... he always dobs.

Sophomores Rob Mortensen and
Brianna Bair have both been recognized
by the Pennsylvania State Athletic Conference (PSAC) for their accomplishments last
week.
Additionally
Mortensen and senior Jeff Mills were
both honored by the Eastern College
Athletic v-.
Mortensen was named the Men's
Athlete of the
PSAC and ECAC
Week after winning three events and setting two Bald Eagle records this past
week. At the Mansfield University TriMeet on April 12th Mortensen broke
LHU's 3000-meter record by 20 seconds
with his win in 8:46.74. At the Bucknell
Heptagonal meet held on Saturday, April
15th, the sophomore won the 1500 meters in a school-record time of 3:51.38.

Indiana took the 1-0 lead in
the nightcap, scoring one in the
third and then made it a 3-0 game
with two more in the fourth. LHU
answered in the bottom half of
that inning.
With one out, Strohm walked
and then Cassell delivered a
homerun down the left field line
to make it a 3-2 game. Sarcinelli
walked and then scored when
Cunningham smacked a triple.
Cunningham scored on a wild
pitch to give the Bald Eagles a 43 lead.
They then added a muchneeded insurance run in the sixth.
Woods delivered a two out double and scored when Rudolph
tripled. Indiana scored one in the
top of the seventh to bring the final to 5-4.

Conklin went the distance on

The men's rugby team would like to take this
opportunity to thank everyone that has supported us over the past year. Although our road td
the National Championships was cut short by a
second round loss to Radford University, we

remain optimistic that we will find ourselves id
the same position again this time next year,
We would like to extend a personal thank
you to President Willis for his support of the
team and encouragement to help us raise funds
for our necessary expenses.
By working hard and playing as a team, the*
name of LHU Rugby has reached some of the:
most prominent and prestigious rugby teams inthe nation. Moreover, as long as we have the;
dedication and the drive to w,in. Lock Haven:
