Keffer defeats Chomiak
for CGA presidential post
by Mike Feeley

Manag ing Editor

In a landslide vote sophomore
Tim Keffer defeated Don Chomiak
in the CGA presidential elections
held last Thursday.
Keffer captured 67 percent of the
votes (644) to 32 percent for
Chomiak (316) in what is probably
one of the smallest turnouts for a
CGA election.
' 'I expected it to be a lot closer,''
said Keffer. "I am also surprised
at the turn out. It seemed that a lot
more people voted.".
Throughout his campaign , Keffer stressed the need for better
communication between the CGA
and the students and now that the
election is over it is still one of his
major goals.
"I want to stand by what I said
before, I want to let the students
know what is going on. One of the
first things I want to do is set up
a committee to find out what can
be done to get the students more
aware," said Keffer.
Another goal for Keffer is to
work on the major concerns of the
students. According to Keffer,
parking is a problem that has
plagued the campus for years, and
although there is nothing he can do
about it personally, he hopes to
work with the administration to
work out a solution.
"I feel I' m going to surprise
people," said Keffer. "I don't

Tim Keffer
think it 's all qualifications going
into this job, I feel you learn as you
go-"
Keffer explained he has been
working with Sean Mullen and Jill
Lippencott (the current CGA
president and vice-president) for
about a month , and when he ran
for.the office he._knew .what he was
getting into. "I did a lot of
research ," he said .
He also explained now that the
election is over he wants to work
closely with the current administration . "Come September I
intend to be prepared to do the
job Along with the change of administration there also comes a
change in the executive council ,
picked by the president . Keffer
said he wants people in his executive council who are willing to
work. "I have one or two people
who are possibilities, I know they

will work hard," said Keffer. He
added he did not want to name
them until later.
' 'I wanted to do something for
the school and I saw this as a good
way to help the students," said
Keffer. "I'm going to do my best."
Keffer added a lot of credit for
his election goes to his sister Sue
and her roomate Diane Empy who
helped him when he hurt his ankle
last week.
In the vice-presidential election ,
Ed Gobora defeated Da.n
Griesbaum by taking 59.8 percent
of the votes.
Gobora believes interaction with
the administration and his ability
to work well with other people will
help him "continue his involvement , while developing as a student and learning more about the
school."
According to Gobora, the majority of the vice-president 's
responsibilities lie with the committee network. "The vicepresident must organize and see to
it that these committees are efficiently run by using accurate lists
of membership and chairpersons,"
he said .
One of Gobora's goals is to form
stronger communication and better involvement with all committees. He would also like to set up
a committee whereby a senator
would attend all hall council
meetings and conduct informative

BU establishes
study abroad center
First stop: Florence, Italy
by Elizabeth Dacey
News Editor

Bloomsburg Univers ity will
sponsor its own study abroad program this summer, offering student
s the chance to spend three weeks
in Florence, Italy while completing general education
requirements.
Director of International Education , Dr. William L. Carlough ,
said , "This is the first year BU has
had its own study abroad center,
and it would be very hard to find
a program comparable to this one.
The price is fantastic."
The program costs $1599. This
includes: a) round trip jet transportation from New York to Milan and
return; b) charter bus transportation from Milan to Florence and
return; c) shared room and three
meals daily at Villa; d) all tuition
fees for three semester hours of
transferable college credit; e) U.S.
departure taxes; f) pass for use of
public busses to Florence; g)
counseling by the staff. Not included are passport fees, travel to
and from home to New York, textbooks, spending money and optional travel.
Each student may enroll in one
or two of the following courses:
European Art II - Studies the
origins of Renaissance art and the
development of Italian art. Visits

BU joins 1986 Easter Seals ' Team; 10-hour
telethon to be aired on local stations

by Elizabeth Pitts
for the Voice

"Join Our Team." That is the
theme for the 1986 Easter Seals
Telethon, and exactly what
Bloomsburg University is doing. . joining -the team .
The area Easter Seals Society,
along with students of the Mass
Commucication Department of
BU are currently organizing the
1986 Easter Seals Telethon which
will be broadcast live on Sunday,
March 9, from the McCormick
Center for Human Services.
The 10-hour telethon, which
will begin at noon , will be aired

on three local television channels
covering Columbia , Montour,
Northumberland , Snyder, and
Union counties. Bob Gale of
WHLM and Gerry Stropnicki of
the Bloomsburg Theatre Ensemble
wil co-host the telethon along with
BU student Vernon Rochester, key
interviewer.
"The univerisity 's students are
involved, as they have been in the
past, but much more than ever
before," Phil Christian of the
Easter Seals Society, said.
In the past, Dr. Dana Ulloth and
students have helped with the taping of the telethon which was held
at .the Central Susquehanna Intermediate Unit (CSIU) located

outside Lewisburg. According to
Christian, never before has the entire production been done. This is
because, until the completion of
the McCormick Building, the
CSIU was the closest television
studio available to the Easter Seals
Society. "Now that the studios on
campus are being used, it gives the
students more opportunities to get
involved," Christian said . He added, the entire technical aspect of
the telethon, such as taping,
editing, broadcasting and studio
sets is being done by university
students under the direction of Dr.
Ulloth .
Students are also working on
public relations under the direction

of Professor Theresa RussellLoretz; on advertising under Dr.
Dennis Hinde; and on organizing
fundraising events together with
the Easter Seals Society.

BU Health Center takes on the flu
by Maria Libertella
Staff Writer

Feeling congested? Tired?
Weak? Do you have a sore throat?
A slight fever? Is your stomach
feeling upset or nauseous? If so,
you have the symptoms of influenza, commonly known as the flu.
Your only consolation for these
miserable feelings, may be that you
are not alone. A high percentage
of BU students presentl y have the
flu. "We normally have 30-40 kids
in here each day," Cindy Harris,
a full-time registered nurse at the
Student Health Center, said. "In
the last few weeks we've had 80-90
students per day. Three-quarters of
them have the flu. "
Although this is the time of year
1
when many of us 'catch a cold ,
there seems to be ' 'a strange bug
going around this year," Harris
said. "It 's unusual to have this
many ttu patients. " Harris explained , "There are two strains or
forms of the flu going around . One
consists of head congestion ,
swollen glands , sore throat and
high fever. The other consists of
the above symptoms plus pains in
the stomach , vomiting and diarrhea ."

Dee Hranitz , another full-time
R.N. at the Health Center, said
"Listen to your body. If you have
flu symptoms, rest a lot and keep
up your nutrition with a light , liquid diet." Harris added , "And
remember to take something. The
Self Care Unit is here for the
students." The Self Care Unit is
located on the third floor of
McCormick and has available, at
no charge, decongestants, Tylenol ,
aspirin , cough syrup and throat
lozenges.
One thing to remember if you
have the flu , is it is normal for it
to last up to a week or longer.
"Kids get so concerned if they
have the symptoms more than a
few days," Hranitz said. "They
think it 's something more severe.
A lot of students also are afraid
that the weak , tired feeling they
have means mono." Hranitz explained , "It 's just your body
fighting an illness. "
"However," warns Harris "if
the symptoms last for a week and
you start to get a pain in your ears,
it is a good idea to see the nurse .
It may be a bacteria infection." If
the nurse sees an infection , she
must send you to the doctor. In
most cases thoug h , students are

sessions with off-campus students.
As far as a president/vicepresident relationshi p, Gobora
believes they should work together
in the decision-making process in
order to perform in an effective administrative manner.
In other voting, Jodi Vandergrift
defeated Barbara Eastlack for the
position of treasurer. Vandergrift
took 70.3 percent of the votes.
Jeanie Hunt , the only person
running, was elected to the position of recording secretary.

not sent to the doctor. "Kids get
upset ," Harris said "when they
are told there is no antibiotic for
the flu."
Students also get upset when the
nurse does not hand them a permission slip to miss class. "We tell
students that their professors may
contact us if they want certification ," Harris said "but only the
doctor can permit excused

absences.
There are ways the flu can be
prevented from spreading. "Wash

the windows for about twenty
minutes, once a day." Hranitz exp lained , "This is why the flu is so

AIDS controversy

AIDS victims have enough to worry about
without the trouble of stereotyping
Dear Editor,
In Thursday 's paper, an article
by Tom Miller discussed AIDS.
According to Mr. Miller, AIDS is
a "media contrived fraud "
brought about because of the
"...financial status of homosexuals
and their ingratiating relationships
with influential people." Fortunately, this argument like most
media arguments against AIDS
research , is filled with holes.
Why does the media pay attention to AIDS? Is it because AIDS
is a gay disease? No. The papers
love sensationalism and what
could be more sensational than a
disease that strikes quickly, fatally and for which there is no known
cure?
The idea is to get a vaccine for
AIDS, much like the ones that are
available for tuberculosis. Gays
and drug addicts shouldn't be used as scapegoats by those who feel
risk-free "simply (by)...keeping
their pants on." The risk of contracting tuberculosis, or cancer,
can be reduced simply by not
lighting up. But one does not find
Mr. Miller calling for the end of
government supported research in
these areas. Secondly, the claim
that more people die of tuberculosis than AIDS in one year,
which certainly is true, assumes
that all people get regular physical
checkups. This is not true.
Therefore, it ends up not being a
question of what kills more; but a
question of what can be done to
prevent the deaths.
The fact is that AIDS is
transmitted from people to people.
AIDS victims have enough to
worry about without the added
trouble of stereotyping. The victims of AIDS, regardless of sexual
preference are teachers, lawyers,
and scientists of both sexes. By

assuming that the "problem "has
a built-in solution , gays can 't
reproduce, Mr. Miller seems to
forget the disease can be transmitted heterosexually, a feet he brings
out in his article. In addition , with
the same logic used to eliminate 90
percent of AIDS sufferers, one can
eliminate blacks from the problem
of Sickle Cell Anemia and women
from the horrors of Toxic Shock
Syndrome.
Why should the government be
involved in research to combat
AIDS? Because this society, along
with its government, is one where
the individual is protected. And
whether the victim is suffering
from AIDS or T.B. or cancer, it is
the government's responsibility to
protect them.
The problem of AIDS is not

Dear Editor
How amusing that now, all of a
sudden, someone has the audacity to ask "Mullen and the gang "
to run again for CGA positions.
Where were you throughout the
past year while everyone has been
denouncing almost every decision
CGA has made?
I don't think anyone at this
school realizes what an utterly
thankless job a student government
position is. Nor do they realize
how many hours the job requires.
This isn 't just a once-a-week
meeting job for them . It is
something they are involved with
every day while still balancing
studies and their other committments. Mullen has especially
worked very hard to serve as a
state representative as well as our

helpless. On Wednesday, Harvard
researchers announced they have
found the location in the cell where
the AIDS virus is rep roduced. On
Thursday, a hemophiliac boy was
readmitted to his local public
school , so both medical and social
walls are being scaled.
Overall , Mr. Miller 's atavistic
attitude and rig ht(eous) rhetoric is
not one shared by many. But in one
point only do I agree with him~
when he states that our attention
should be directed to a true national concern . I submit that
monies be used to educate the ignorant and enlig hten the bigoted .
Mr. Miller would benefit from

CGA president.
So when the CGA decides on a
banquet as a small reward for the
work they have done throughout
the year, what do we do? Badger
and berate them into cancelling an
event they richly deserve.
Let me ask you, where would
CGA get funds for a banquet if not
from CGA? Should they have all
paid for themselves and a guest,
digging into their pockets for $50
or $60? We all have that kind of
money, don't we? Every other
organization has fundraisers to pay
for banquets. So maybe CGA
should sell M&M's in their spare
time, right? Sure, what spare time?
Sean, Joe, Jill and all of the
representatives have done an excellent job this year as our government and I for one want tb thank
them for putting up with their
thanldess jobs.
I also want to say I understand
why you don 't wish to return.

Taxpayers: held up by private schools
by Tom Miller

Editorial Colunmist

Every qualified American citizen should have within his grasp an
affordable college education. This is not to say that a college education
is a "ri ght ", but it has been defined as beign good public policy and
this definition has proven to be well-founded.
In a recent article written for the Philadelp hia Inquirer, University of Pennsylvania President Sheldon Hackney deplored cuts in President Reagan's budget for student aid. President Hackney says these cuts
will make it difficult for ordinary people to attend the University of
Pennsylvania. He says many people will simply be priced out ofa "highquality college education."
Penn's tuition is $10,400 per year versus $2,000 at Bloomsburg
University. Even considering the state subsidy, one wonders if President Hackney is implying that a Penn education is four or five times
better than that provided at Bloomsburg.
President Hackney is suffering from an illusion fostered during the
past , say, fifty years, that just as farmers-because they are farmershave a right to be in business, so any college that will accept him no
matter how expensive it is.
Hackney is correct when he says that college shouldn 't be just for
the rich . It was in recognition of this idea that state colleges were founded. The proposition was that the state would sponsor colleges for
students who would otherwise remain uneducated.
The possibility that a person with a score of over 1000 on the college boards should attend Penn State or Bloomsburg apparently appals
President Hackney. He seems to think that we are missing out on a
superior education which only a private school can provide.
It is time that the state stopped paying for students to attend the
most expensive school in Pennsylvania. Students at private schools in
Pennsylvania should be limited to the financial aid of state system
students.
Hackney thinks it is just terrible that students might have to work
as much as 15 hours a week to get through school. In fact, countless
students have worked their way through schools even more demanding
than the Ivy League 's "weak sister "-and did very well.
It is not an obligation of the taxpayers to send every student to the
most expensive school which will have him . State universities are provided to safeguard against the elite having a monopoly on education.
If we accept the idea that it is necessary to send a student to Penn
to get "a high-quality education ," then Bloomsburg is reduced to being an institution attended by students not because it is what they can
afford , but because it was the best one which would accept them. This
is an insult to the students and the very fine faculty we have here.
If the University of Pennsylvania and other supposedly elitist
schools want to price themselves out of the market, let them. U.S. taxpayers should not tolerate being held up by these private institutions
which charge whatever they want and then expect others to foot the bill .
Students should recognize they cannot, in fact, attend any school
that happens to accept them. The limits to public benevolence should
extend only so far as providing an education at a public university-a
very good education in most cases. Any improvement over that .ought
properly to be financed out of the students ' own initiative and resources
S^by the noblesse oblige of the private institution.
*^ We have fine state university system. Let's not sit still for the implication that it is some kind of academic last resort.

Joe Zone sportscaster going for the gusto
by Joame Kavanaugh
Feature s Editor

"So give toni ght your best
shot." says Joe Zone, the hot shot ,
go get ' m sportscaster fro m
WNEP ' s channel 16 in northeastern Pa. Zone has been g iving broadcasting his best shot for
the past 11 years and at 34 he says
he 's "onl y beginning. "
"I haven 't even peaked yet, most
sportscasters in the U.S. are in
their forties ," he says.
Zone 's career got off the
ground , he says, "Because I was
in the right place at the right time."
He grew up in Troy, N.Y., where
he attended LaSalle Christian
Brother 's Academy, graduating as
Captain. During that time his
parents , Joseph and Linda Zone,
moved with his younger brother
and sister to Syracuse, N .Y. Zone
moved to live with his parents after
graduating from the military
academy.
In the summer of 1973, at age 21,
Zone married and worked as a
clothes salesman in Syracuse.
"My biggest dream at that time
was to be a disc jockey," he says.
But that all changed when Andy McWilllams, the play-by-play
man for the Syracuse Blazers ,
hel ped him get his first broadcasting job. "I was a hockey
groupy at the time," says Zone,
"Andy mentioned my name to
WOLF, a local AM station that
wanted to expand its hockey
coverage.''
After four months at WOLF.

Zone was hired as a weekend
sports anchor for WNYS-TV channel 9 in Syracuse. Zone explains
he got the job when "Henry
Hicks, the station 's news director
had my name on the audition tape
of the guy he reall y wanted for the
job. He was so embarassed of his
mistake that he gave me the job ,
even afte r the other guy turned it
down."
At WNYS, Zone not only was
a weekend sportscaster, but he
later produced the six and 11
o'clock news. At that point he was
torn between starting a career as
a full-time producer, or staying
with sportscasting. "I decided to
stay with sports because I love being on the air," he says, "I live and
die for the t .v. camera ."
Zone s next big break was an offer to work for KNBC, Burbank ,
Calif. , but it didn 't come before
the break-up of his marriage. "M y
wife was not ready to handle the
demands of my new career," says
Zone.
After working three years fbr
WNYS, Zone went to Burbank
where he worked as the number
three sportscaster and reported
three tinies a week. Unfortunately, he was fired after one year
which led to three to four months
of unemployment. "I wasn 't emotionall y ready for that job ,'' says
Zone, "Not only that , Bryant
Gumble, the news director who
hired me, left and his replacement
was not a Joe Zone fan. "
But someone out there was, as
Zone found out when Elden
Hale,WNEP's news director called Joe and offered him a job. "I
had been sending my tapes to
various consulting firms ," says
Zone, "and apparantly Hale saw
my tape and liked it."
At WNEP, Zone 's personal
knock'em dead style began to
develop. Says Zone, "In Los
Angeles I didn 't know how to use
my positon to intensify people. I
learned that working here.''
Although Zone's unique ability
to stir his viewers has given him
a lot of recognition , it has also
g iven him somewhat of a controversial nature. "I don 't know

Four BU students choose their
own blind dates last Friday evening while the Master of
Ceremonies , comedian Scott
Bruce, played the part of television

laughing with his suggestive jokes
and sarcastic humor. When contestants ran out of answers, the audience supplied a few for them .

Campus lighting
(continued from page 1)
and students are forced to walk
alone on a sometimes scary and
often poorl y lit campus.
Dr. Parrish, Vice President of
administration and coordinator for
li ghting on campus , admitted to a
lighting problem and is graduall y
dealing with it.
Last summer, lights were installed behind Elwell Hall and on the
upper campus by the tennis courts.
The next primary target area is the
walkway running from Hartline
Science Center to Centennial
Gym. As of now there are three
lights directl y across from Sutliff
Hall that are obscured by the trees
and provide little li ght. "In the
spring, " Dr. Parrish said , "the
heads of those li ghts will be
replaced with hi gh intensity globe
lights."
Plans are now under way for the
addition of a "mall area " to be
located behind Andruss Library.In
the center of the now empty lot
will be a shallow pool and surrounding that will be eight new
globe lights. "These lights," Dr.
Parrish said , "will add to the attraction of the campus , but mainly to the safety of it. "

Playing
too rough

In the latest issue of Sports Illustrated, they address one of the
major concerns today in professonal sports. The article is titled "Hockey? Call it Sockey" and
it concerns the issue of violence in
professional hockey.
Hockey is, by its nature, one of
the most bruta l of all contact
sports, but the brutality in hockey
has switched its focus to pure
savegery.
Violence has always been a problem in sports, but a new development 'has come in sports that
makes violence in sports an even
more threatening occurrence.
It seems that people are beginning to realize that violence is not
only a couple of guys taking their
frustrations out on each other. Acts
of violence have actually become
good strategy in sports when your
team is losing and you need to get
one of the other team 's players on
the sidelines.
Of course, acts of unnecessary
violence are certainly not confined only to hockey. Even in the supposedly non-violent sport of
baseball we have seen many acts
of the "beanball wars "
, If one of the opposing .pitchers
knocks one of your guys down ,
well , hell , whether it was accidental or not you better make sure you
let them know about it by knocking one of their guys down too.
Sick.
It seems that the bigwigs of professional sports are afraid to do a
lot about it either. Penalties are
usual ly a good , stern , slap on the
wrist , and some other guy is just
going to do the same thing tomorrow when he sees that he can get

Adriannames
first assistant
New Bloomsburg University
football coach Pete Adrian has announced the appointment of Vin
Sinagra as the first member of his
staff. Sinagra has served as the
head coach at Milford Academy,
Milford , Connecticut for the past
four years.
Adrian , who took over for
George Landis after the latter
spent four years as the Huskies '
head coach , will name one other
full-time assistant coach as well as
several part-time coaches.
Sinagra 's main responsibilities
will be to work with the
Bloomsburg offense, and he will
be in charge of the Huskies ' offensive line.
Prior to his four years as head
coach at Milford , which is a prep
school that has placed many
p layers in the college ranks at all
levels, he was the defensive coordiantor at the school. He was the
defensive line coach at the University of Rhode Island for two
seasons.
He also was a three-year starter
at defensive tackle at Rhode Island
as an undergraduate before playing
professional football with .the
Philadelphia Bell of the how
defunct World Football League.
The coach received a tryout with
the Toronto Argonauts of the
Canadian Football League after his
stint with the Philadelphia team.
Sinagra received his Bachelor of
Science degree in Health and
Physical Education frbm Rhode
Island in 1975 and completed work
on his Master 's degree in HPE and
Recreation at URI in 1980.
The 33-year-old was born in Italy but moved shortly thereafter to
Brooklyn, New York. The new
assistant coach and his wife, Liz ,
will move to the Bloomsburg area
in the near future.

away with it without too stiff of a
penalty.
When athletes only give each
other a good check into the boards,
or when a couple of guys are having a battle under the boards for
a rebound , then that is only a byproduct of competition , but when
a wide receiver cuts across the
middle and some goon who proudly wears the nickname of
"assassin " comes across and tries
to take his head off. then
something is wrong.
By the way, the example I have
just used is no example, its a true
story. Remember Dary l Stingley?
Again , the problem here lies in
the sports attitude in our society.
Sports fans condone this kind of
behavior. Just think of the old joke,
"I went to see a fight and a hockey
game broke out." People love this
stuff. It 's like the people who go
to car races to see the wrecks.
Sick.
Yes, folks, hockey, football,
baseball , basketball , all of them ,
great games with a lot of great
players who kriow that there is
more to competing than knocking
the other guy down. But reinforcement encourages behavior of this
sort, and the more we encourage
this the worse it wil get.
People are getting hurt needlessly, and not only the people on the
field (or the ice, if it were) but also
in the stands, in telvision rooms
across the country, and lastly, but
probably most importantly, this is
what the children are seeing, and
they will imitate what they see.
Sick.
Remember, adress your comments and/or criticisms to the
Voice Box 97 KUB c/o Snorts.

Pete Adrian named as new head football coach
by Mike Albright

Layout and Design Editor

Pete Adrian was announced as
Bloomsburg University 's head
footaball coach at a press conference Friday.
Adrian , the defensive coordinator at the University of Rhode
Island for the past 10 seasons, will
succeed George Landis after the
latter left to assume the head
coaching duties at Bucknell
University.
Also named as a full-time assistant at Friday 's press conference
was Vin Sinagra. Sinagra comes to
Bloomsbur g form Milf ord
Academy in Connecticut and was
Adrian 's fi rs t choice as an
assistant.
Last season , while BU was goiaig 12-1, winning the Pennsylvania
Conference title , advancing to the
NCAA Division II playoffs and
winning numerous post-season

honors, Rhode Island was doing
much of the same.
Rhode Island captured the
Yankee Conference Championship
with a 10-3 record last season and
appeared in the NCAA Division IAA playoffs. Both schools will be
honored Wednesday with the
Lambert/Meadowlands Cup, symbolizing football supremacy
among Eastern schools.
"The foundation has been laid
here and I think this program can
be a winner, but it must be an
established winner, which takes
several straight years of winning ,"
said Adrian.
The new coach immediately announced that he will make a few
minor changes in the BU scheme.
Defensively, Adrian will run the
"50" front with lots of pressure.
"We'll make th ings happen ," said
Adrian. "It 's a high risk defense
but we're willing to trade one
score for six or seven sacks. We're

going to go get people. '
Offensively, BU will try to
throw more, using balanced and
multi ple formations. "I' m not
from the Woody Hayes school of
three yards and a cloud of dust ,"
added Adrian. "But we will run
the ball."
Adrian also said he will insert an
option play and will use it five or
six times per game, "whenever the
situation warrants it."
Adrian also has strong views on
academics. During the season , he
will insitute a mandatory breakfast
format that players must attend .
The penalty for not attending : a
6 a.m. running session.
"The students find that just after
breakfast is the best time to study,
and after the season ends, the kids
still get up and study. After all ,
we 're all creatures of habit."
Adrian is expected to announce
Joe Viadella as his second fulltime assistant sometime this week.

Husky playoff hopes fade

Fifteen first half points by
teshman Theresa Lorenzi sparkid Bloomsburg University ' s
aivomen 's basketball team to a
35-50 win over Pennsylvania Conference Eastern Division rival
Mansfield in the Nelson Field
House Saturday.
The win moves the Huskies one
step closer to a playoff birth , their
Srst since the 1983-84 season , and
j nly the second in its history.
Bloomsburg jump ed out to the
fead quickly with Lorenzi scoring
10 of Bloomsburg 's first 12 points,
with the other two points coming
from Pam Bressi.
At half-time the Huskies led
29-21.
Lorenzi was quieted in the
second-half where captain Jean
Millen took over. Millen ended the
iay as the Huskies leading scorer
with 21 points and added 12 rebounds to lead the squad in that
category. Lorenzi finished the day
with 19 points.
"It was a definite Lorenzi offense in the first half," said Coach
Sue Hibbs. "We hoped to get better balance in the second half , and
I thought that Theresa might have
sven undershot in the second half,
which was not our intention."

The Bloomsburg University
men 's basketball team saw its
p layoff chances put in jeopardy as
the Mansfield Mountaineers used
a strong rebounding attack and
took advantage of some poor
Husky field goal shooting on the
way to a 71-65 victory Saturday
night at Nelson Fieldhouse.
All is not lost yet for BU, but a
win Saturday would have given the
Huskies an excellent shot at sealing up the final spot in the PSAC
playoffs.
Mansfield improved its record in
the Pennsy lvania Conference
Eastern Division to 7-5 (13-12
overall), while the Huskies dropped to fourth place in the division
with a 6-6 record (13-10) overall).
The Huskies still have a chance ,
as Mansfield still must play
division-leading Millersville ,
which could set up a tie between
BU and Mansfield.
Despite comments from
Mansfield head coach that the
game would not get into a
technical foul festival, the Mountaineers nevertheless found
themselves slapped with two
technical fouls in the first five
minutes, and arfother one before
the first half ended.
Mansfield's first technical came
at the 16:06 mark on senior forward Andy Moore for apparently
bad-mouthing an official after be-

ing called for a foul.
The Mountaineers were ahead
9-4 at the time and seemed to be
on their way to a roll over the
Huskies. Glenn Noack missed the
free throw, and BU took the ball
from out of bounds.
Bill Connelly, who exchanged
words with Moore just before the
technical was called, was fouled by
Brian White . The Mansfield
coaches protested and got another
technical foul slapped on them at
the 15:45 mark.
This time , Coach Charlie
Chronister sent Connelly to the
line to shoot the free throws, and
Connelly connected on both of
them . Connelly follwed by converting both free throws from the foul ,
and the Huskies were within one.
However, Mansfield did not
come unglued , and outplayed the
Huskies following the technicals.
Mansfield built their lead to as
much as 13, 35-22, on an Alan
Sanders field goal. Les Alston
brought the Huskies, to within 11
by converting both ends of a tmeand-one, and Alex Nelcha hit a
bucket to make the score 35-26.
Then it was trouble time again for
Mansfield.
Moore became a little too
outspoken again , and found
himself the recipient of another
technical foul with 2:52 remaining
in the first half.
The Huskies converted again as
Noack (13 points) sank the free
throw and Nelcha scored a field
