Record; Frick Won 86 Bouts

3 Triumphs Boost Women's
Cage Team Over ,500 Mark
Three victories last week
hoisted the Lehigh women's
basketball team over the .500
mark with an 11-9 record.
Coach Annette Lynch's team
downed Millersville, 72-65,
Lafayette, 57-54, and Rider, 59-57.
In the big one over Lafayette
the winners rushed to a 33-29
halftime lead by fast-breaking
the Leopards over the final 8%
minutes of the half and out-
scoring them 19-4.
Lafayette recovered, pulled
into a tie at 43, but Lehigh once
again moved out front. Mary
Zdrofcoff, of Allentown, Pa., had
two crucial rebounds and two key
foul conversions in the final
minute. She led the winners with
14 points. Karen Lelinski, of

and No. 87 as the Engineers
coasted past Cornell, 46-0, and
Syracuse, 29-10, to end their 28th
consecutive winning campaign
with 12 victories and only two
losses.
The 46-point margin over the
Big Red, at Stabler Center, was
Lehigh's largest margin of
victory ever in a dual meet.
The Easterns begin at 11 a.m.
Friday, Feb. 29, with Lehigh a
favorite to turn back 15 rival
EIWA members by a wide
margin. In bouts against EIWA
opponents this winter the
probable tournament starters for
the Brown and White have a
45-5-2 advantage.
Two of those setbacks came
Saturday at Syracuse as Impounder Rich Santoro of
Bethlehem, Pa., and heavyweight Drew Keiser of Sinking
Spring, Pa., were surprise losers.
Santoro was upset 9-6 by fellow
freshman Dale Mills of the
Orange, yielding three points on a
near-fall late in the bout. Keiser
lost 7-3 to Syracuse heavyweight
Brian Heffernan. Mills' older
brother, Gene, is an EIWA and
NCAA champion sitting out the
season. Heffernan won for only
the ninth time in 17 decisions.
Brown, who had tied Mike
Frick's career victory mark of 86
with a 17-4 rout of Cornell's Mike
Pietrowski, made Steve Rosa of
Syracuse his 87th—and record-
setting—victim, 6-1. Frick had an
86-9-4 mark from 1973 through
1976. Brown is 87-10.
Other double winners last week
were 126-pounder Steve
