Game Day Info
TEUMESTKY
The Edinboro-Shippensburg game has
become one of the bigger rivalries brewing
in the PSAC West. After facing each other
four times last year; twice in regular season
and twice in post-season play, the compe­
tition between the two squads will no doubt
be characterized by the same high intensi­
ty as in previous years.
The Fighting Scots were defeated by
the Lady Raiders on all four occasions last

HEAD COACH: CAROLYN MAIR (13-2,1st season at Shippensburg)
The Lady Raiders of Shippensburg
University are 13-2 overall, ana 2-1 in the
PSAC West. The 1998 NCAA Division II
East Region champions and Elite Eight
qualifiers, this year’s squad is ranked No.
14 in the latest USA TodayA^CA poll
(Jan. 14). The Lady Raiders’ only two
losses came at the hands of Kutztown
University, 54-52, and PSAC West oppo­
nent Indiana (PA), 72-63.
On Wednesday, Shippensburg scored
a win over California, 82-65. The confer­
ence victory puts Shippensburg in an early
tie with the Lady Vulcans for second place
in PSAC Western Division action. The
Lady Raiders were led by a pair of 20
oints-plus scorers, guards Janette
ieczynski (25 points) and Vickie Mikesic
(21 points).
Shippensburg’s leading scorer for the
season is senior center A^ley Toledo. A
two-time All-American, Toteao averages
19.5 ppg. and 11.9 rebounds, and needs
just four boards to break former Edinboro

standout Heather Gates’ PSAC career
rebounding record of 1,301 life-time car­
oms... the second-leading scorer for the
Lady Raiders is sophomore guard Janette
Pieczynski. She scores an average of
14.9 ppg.... another sophomore guard,
Vickie Mikesic, also averages in doublefigure scoring with 12.0 ppg. In addition to
being a sconng threat, Mikesic can distrib­
ute the ball, with a team-high 67 assists...
junior guard Julie Sutch averages 6.0
§g. and has 61 assists, and is averaging
.3 minutes per game... back-up center
Tamaura Woodson has seen action in all
15 games this season, and averages 7.2
ppg....
5’ir
sophomore
forward
Stephanie Rothery provided the Lady
Raiders with key backup minutes against
California(PA).
Rothery averages 5.0
ppg., and had five points and two
rebounds in nine minutes versus the Lady
Vulcans... the Lady Raiders also receive
support from newcomer Trisha Lower,
who has seen the court in all 15 games.

season, including an 83-80 overtime win
for the PSAC post-season crown.
The
same type of post-season scenario played
itself out in the 1996-97 season, as the
Boro and Shippensburg split the regular
season games, but the Lady Raiders
claimed the PSAC title with a win over the
Scots.
Overall, the series between the two con­
ference schools only slightly tilts to the side
of the Lady Raiders, 14-13.

EmOmBASIEIlUlATASLJUICE
Back in the friendly confines of McComb
Fieldhouse, the Fighting Scots have built
up a 6-1 record, with their only home loss
coming against Binghamton University in
early December. Their most recent win
was an 83-81 overtime contest against
Lake Superior State University, which
snapped a four-game losing streak.

TBE LAST TIME OUT
On Monday night, the Fighting Scots
picked up their 11th win over the visiting
Lakers of Lake Superior State University,
83-81 in overtime. Still missing leading
scorer Marin Hightower due to illness, and
coming off of two unexpected conference
losses, the Boro was able to bounce back
and claim the hard-fought overtime battle
as a win.
The game was called tightly, and as a
result, the number of personal fouls com­
bined totaled an astronomical 57.
The
Scots capitalized, converting a schoolrecord 38 of 50 (.760) shots from the char­
ity stripe, including 5 of 8 in the overtime
period. The Lakers hit for 57.6-percent (19
of 33), and were 50-percent in overtime (3
of 6).
Edinboro senior center Kelli Torboli reg­
istered her seventh double-double of the
year, cashing in with 17 points and 14
rebounds.
Senior floor leader Meghan
Miller connected on three long-range
jumpers, and added 15 total points.

The FiGHTiK Scots
HEAD COACH STAN SWANK
Fighting Scot head coach Stan Swank is
in his 12th season and owns a 208-120
overall record at Edinboro. The title of winningest women’s basketball coach in
school history is fitting, as Swank has led
the squad to five NCAA Division II post­
season tournaments, and has made seven
trips to the PSAC post-season tournament,
with six championship game appearances.

SCOUTING THE SCOTS
Edinboro brings an 11-5 overall and 0-2
conference record into this Saturday’s con­
test. The Scots will most likely be minus
leading scorer Marin Hightower again this

weekend. Kelli Torboli, the Scots’ senior
center, is currently averaging 11.0 points
per game, and is fifth in the PSAC and
leads the team in rebounding with 10.0 per
game.
In the three games since
Hightower’s absence, Torboli has averaged
14.7 ppg.... junior guard Jessica Rowe
has also boosted her shooting figures in
the past three contests, averaging 20.7
ppg. in comparison to the 12.1 ppg. she
averaged throughout the first 13 games.
Rowe scored 16 points in the Lake
Superior St. win... senior point guard
Meghan Miller has unleashed the big
guns, shooting 44.4-percent from behind
the arc to lead all PSAC shooting special­
ists.
Miller leads the team with 40 threepointers this season. Her 15 points against
Lake Superior St. gives her 1,356 career
points, which moves her into the fourthplace slot on Edinboro’s all-time scoring
leaders’ chart, passing former Scot Lori
Mongomery’s (1992-96) total of 1,356...
forwards Dana Polakowski and Kim Vay
hit the boards against the Lakers, combin­
ing for 25 points and 21 rebounds.
Polakowski pulled down 13 rebounds, the
second time this season she has had dou­
ble-figure rebounding. She averages 6.4
ppg. and 6.1 rpg.... Vay, who earned her
first start on Monday night, connected for
14 points versus Lake Superior State and
grabbed eight boards. She averages 6.8
ppg. and 5.1 rpg.... freshman forward
Korie Morton came back after going
scoreless against California (PA) and
recorded eight points for the Scots versus
Lake Superior State... Julie McNees, a
sophomore guard, has been counted on as
a key reserve in the backcourt. McNees
has 19 assists, nine steals, and averages
just under 2 points per game... freshman

centers Michelle Bowen and Courtney
Cable have also been called upon of late.
Bowen averages 2.1 ppg. and 1.8 rpg,
while Cable averages 1.7 ppg. and 1.9
rpg.

HEAD COACH: Rodger Goodling (326-384, 28th year; 336-400, 29th year overall)
Shippensburg has lost three straight
games and six of its last seven contests.
However, the Red Raiders bring plenty of
size into the matchup with Edinboro, with
ten players on the roster measuring 6’5” or
taller. In addition, Shippensburg relies on
one of the dean’s of college coaching in
Rodger Goodling. Goodling is in his 28th
season at Shipp, having won 326 games
in that time ... the Red Raiders were with­
out standout Wayne Morris for eight
games, but the first team All-PSAC per­
former is now back and playing well. A
6’6” senior, Morris is averaging 19.7 ppg.
and 10.1 ppg., along with 13 blocks in
seven games. He totalled 18 points and
11 boards in Shipp’s 68-63 loss to
California(Pa.). He has now led the team

in scoring and rebounding each of the last
five games ... Brian Anderson and Brian
Gleason are also in double figures.
Anderson, a 6’10” junior, averages 11.1
ppg. and 5.7 rpg. while shooting 52.8 per­
cent from the floor. Gleason Is a 6’6”
sophomore who comes in at 10.3 ppg. He
is also the team’s top three-point threat
with 20 in 51 tries ... size also abounds in
the backcourt, where 6’5” Mike Nestor
and 6’3” Jason Lester reside. Each is a
junior, with Nestor at 4.7 ppg. and a teamhigh 54 assists, and Lester at 7.4 ppg. and
a team-high 27 steals ... 6’5” junior Darrell
Crabbs (4.0 ppg., 5.0 rpg.) and 6’6” fresh­
man Tom Roth (4.3 ppg.) are the top
reserves.

Shippensburg 0-3 in PSAC West play, one
thing is certain - one team will pick up its
first PSAC triumph.

EDINBORO BASKETBALL AT A GLANCE
Home sweet home. After playing six of
its last seven games away from home, the
Fighting Scots now embark on a stretch of
six home games in the next seven con­
tests, with three in a row over the next
week. Coincidentally, Edinboro is 6-2 at
McComb Fieldhouse, including the lone
win during the losing stretch. That was an
85-76 win over Lake Superior State on
Monday, the Boro’s first home game in over
a month.

THE LAST TINE BUT
Edinboro suffered its fourth loss in the
last five games in a heartbreaking manner,
91-88 in overtime at Mansfield.
The
Fighting Scots took a two-point lead with
five seconds left in regulation on Adam
Kaufman’s three-pointer, only to see Tom
Harvey fouled and make two free throws
with two ticks showing. The Boro led by a
point with just over a minute left in over­
time, but the Mountaineers scored the final
four points. Ian Johnson led five Scots in
double figures with 22 markers, adding 10
boards. Michael Johnson had 20 points,
Jean Paul 18, Kaufman 13 points and 11
assists, and Troy Stout 11 points and 13
rebounds. For the second game in a row,
the Scots were hampered by a subpar per­
formance at the line, converting just 10 of
18 free throws.

SERES RECBRB
Edinboro leads 15-7. The Fighting Scots
swept both meetings last season, prevail­
ing 84-75 in Shippensburg, then scoring an
80-70 decision at McComb Fieldhouse.
Six Scots scored in double digits in the first
fray, Jesse Ogden leading the way with15
points on five three’s.
Dwayne Butler
totalled 23 to lead the Boro in the second
contest.
Red Raider standout Wayne
Morris totalled 55 points in the two games.

The FiGiniNG Scots
Edinboro features three players in dou­
ble figures, with sophomore Michael
Johnson leading the way. The 6’5” for­
ward has parlayed a much-improved jump
shot into a 15.4 scoring average. Known
for his high-flying talents in the past,
Johnson has made 13 of 28 three-pointers,
all coming in the last seven contests. He
also leads the Fighting Scots in blocks (44)
and steals (29), and is second off the glass
at 6.3 rpg. Johnson remains one of the top
shot blockers in Division, currently ranking
third. His 81 career swats stands ninth ...
senior Jean Paul, a transfer from Indiana
University, adds 12.2 ppg. but that figure
15.8 ppg. over the last six games. The 6’3”
guard has become the Boro’s top threepoint threat with 23 in 54 attempts, having
made good on 7 of his last 10. Paul stands

second in assists (44) and steals (27), and
is a strong defensive performer ...
Edinboro’s third double digit operative is
quickly becoming the team’s “super sub”.
Six-foot-seven sophomore Ian Johnson
dropped in a career-high 22 points (9 of 14
FGs, 4 of 6 FTs) at Mansfield, adding 10
rebounds for his second double-double,
johnson is averaging 10.1 ppg. and 5.7 rpg.
while playing less than nineteen minutes
an outing. He is also shooting a team-best
55.7 percent from the floor ... sophomore
Adam Kaufman is another player who has
found his scoring touch in recent games.
The 5’11” guard is better known for his
playmaking abilities, but thanks to four
straight double figure outings he is now
scoring at a 9.9 clip. Kaufman third double­
double of the season at Mansfield, scoring
13 points and handing out 11 assists.
Kaufman ranks ninth in Division II in
assists, while leading the Scots with 111.
That gives him 384 for his career, good for
fourth on the career charts. He has also
made a three-pointer in nine straight
games, with 19 in 51 tries overall ...
Terrance Smith and Troy Stout are
expected to round out the starting five.
Smith is an acrobatic 6’6” sophomore who
has battled foul problems, exiting early
from seven contests. The transfer from
Sacramento City College is averaging 7.9
ppg. and 4.7 rpg. while playing just under
twenty minutes a contest. Stout is a 6’6”
senior who has started in the middle in 14
of 15 games. After totalling 11 points and
13 boards at Mansfield, he is averaging 9.1

ppg. and a team-high 7.4 rpg. while shoot­
ing 53.5 percent from the floor, the double­
double was his third in ‘98-99 ... in addition
to Johnson, the Scots receive frontcourt
relief from Rob Schodt, a 6’8” sophomore
from nearby McDowell High School.
Schodt is averaging 4.7 ppg., and is the
team’s top free throw shooter at 82.8 per­
cent (24 of 29)... another bench player who
may see increased minutes is former
General Mclane High School standout
John Yankovich. The 6’1” sophomore,
who joined the team at semester break,
played 20 minutes on Monday vs. Lake
Superior State, then saw 12 more minutes
of action at Mansfield.

Edinboro University Athletic Fund Drive
Dear Friends of the Fighting Scots:

List

Having accepted the chal­
lenge of leading Edinboro
University’s athletic depart­
ment into the 21st century, I
am excited about spear­
heading this annual athletic
fund drive for the direct ben­
efit of our student-athletes.
With the growing cost of
education, the importance of
private funding for our ath­
letic program is vital to the
continued success we have
all enjoyed here at Edinboro University. With no
state appropriation for athletic scholarships, we
depend on labor-intensive fundraising events, as
well as the generous support of our alumni and
friends, to supplement our scholarship fund.
The efforts of our University employees during
our summer camp season continue to be the major
source of our financial development. Although the
University has enjoyed athletic success in the
1990s, our sports teams continue to be funded well
below the National Collegiate Athletic Association
(NCAA) allowable limit. Overall, it is the goal of
Edinboro University to give the best quality educa­
tion and athletic experience possible to our studentathletes. We not only want our students to have the
opportunity to compete, but to be the very best they
can be.
At Edinboro University, we will do everything pos­
sible to generate the resources necessary to stay
competitive, but we need your ongoing support to
continue to improve upon our rich athletic tradition.
We are excited about hearing from you soon, as
you join us on our mission to provide a quality ath­
letic program for the entire Edinboro family.
Sincerely,

Bruce R. Baumgartner, Director of Athletics
World and Olympic Champion

What is the Fighting Scot Booster Club? Providing support
to Edinboro University’s athletic program is the Fighting Scot Booster Club.
Organized in the early 1980’s, it was formed around a core of devoted, loyal alum­
ni, friends and representatives of Edinboro University. It is an advisory group ded­
icated to the support and advancement of Fighting Scot athletics. The club is the
vehicle by which individuals, businesses, and corporations may make contribu­
tions to the overall athletic program or designate a portion to a specific sport.
The club’s primary mission is to provide financial support for the athletic teams
while promoting community awareness and involvement in the entire program. Its
objective of providing athletic scholarships in support of student-athletes and their
goals, parallels the department’s mission of furthering community awareness of all
athletic teams, as well as rallying support around University advocates.
Why Support the BOOS'TER Club? Your generous membership
affords Edinboro University the opportunity to offer a higher quality athletic and
academic experience to its student-athletes. State monies are not available for
athletic scholarships, making the Booster Club and the department's fundraising
efforts the sole means of raising money for yearly scholarships and endowments.
With your assistance, continuing our winning tradition - as well as assisting in the
development of our student-athletes as leaders of tomorrow - will be a reality!
