Mercyhurst .College is rapidlydeveloping into a small
collegepower in the Held of athletics. Inlessf than? three Iyears,
Lakerteams have become regarded asno longer a pushover but
aproblem. From its inception, ourathletic program has strived
tofield teams that would be com*petitive with any schoolresembling
our size. From lameager beginning, Mercyhurstteams-have evolved
into unitsthat are not only competitive butconsisten t winn ers.
Hence, thename Mercyhurst is now beingrecognized not only as a good
co educational institution but is also
by Dario Cipriania name synonymous i for highquality athletic
team s. IOver the last three years, thename of - Mercyhurst has
beencreeping across the country- Thisyear's L aker basketball team
hasthe potential to make the nameM e r c y h u r s t V s t a m p e
d ethroughout the nation. Not manycoaches have the chance to
seefour starters returning from aball dub that won 16 out of
25games the previous year. What iseven stranger, is that three
ofthem are sophomores. If this doesnot make a \ coach smile,
howmany times does a coach havefive excellent players sitting

DICK FO XATHL ETIC DIRECTO R-HEAD COACHDick Fox is beginning
hissecond year as coach of theL akers. After ^compiling
anoutstanding record as a highschool coach. Fox took over thereins
of the infant Lakers lastseason and guided them to ahighly
successful 16-9 record.O riginally from L inesyille, Pa. ,Fox set
the; all-time LinesvilleHigh School scoring record of1040 points*
in three year s ofcompetition. After playing a shortwhile; for
Clarion State College,Fox served a stint in the Army.He. later
played ball for Gannonand ^during the 1955-56 seasonaveraged 12
points per game? In1959, while in his senior year atGannon,^ Fox
als o ^coached theKnight baseball team .I Mr.; Fox's first
basketballcoaching assignment was atUnion CityjgHigh School. He
remained there for three yearsbefore becoming assistant coachat
Gannon.?In September 1963,Fox became head coach at CorryHigh i
School. At Corry; Foxproduced, the first winning teamm 24 years
when his 196647Beavers finished 14-7. { ~iDuring the 1967-68
basketballseason, Fox guided*CathedralPrep to the PCIAA State Class
AChampionship. He repeated thisfeat in 1970 when he once
againcoached a Cathedral Prep teamto the State Championship.Mr. Fox
displayed the qualityof |h is coaching ability lastseason. He
started from* scratchand molded a very respectable,winning team.
With the additionalexperience that he gained as afirst year college
coach, thefortunes of this year's basketballteam appear to be
resting in goodhands.
his bench, eager to get their licksin, who were also on that i
firstyear team. And finally, how manytimes does a coach have a
chanceto recruit six other high-calibreplayers and mix them with
thenine others mentioned above?Answers-not J often. "Yet t
Lakercoach, Dick Fox holds all thecards, and he is sm iling.When
the L akers take the flooragainst Edinboro tomorrowevening, they
will display height,quickness, good shooting, astrong I defense,
and above all,experience. Returning from lastyear's team are
starters MikeEmick, Steve Albert, Carl Jonesand J. C. Carter. Also
returningwill be Dave Wieczorek, JeffMcConnell, Steve Brandon,Danny
Bu kowsk i, and* JimMahoney. The newcomers will beJeff Davern,
Curtis Hixon, JesseCampbell, Bryant Jacobs, BobRepko and John
Chojnacki. T heseplayers have the tools necessaryfor success. They
also have anexcellent coaching staff workingwith them. About the
only thingthat they are not sure of having issupport from} the
MercyhurstCommunity, j
At I the beginning . of thebasketball season last year,
thesupport for the L akers wasfantastic. As the year progressedthis
support died, and by the endof the year, it was almost non-ex
istant. What happened? Whoknows? Perhaps the old apathybug was on
the loose. But thatwas last season. Tomorrowevening there is
another newbeginning. Not only the Mercyhurst L akers of 72-73 ,
but theMercyhurst Community '72-73.L et's go people. This is the
yea r.There is no reason in the worldwhy f800 MC Community members
could not belat that gametomorrow night. Let's get on theband
wagon. The team needs yoursupport. Let's stam p out thatapathy bug
forever.

HURST HAS {ABUNDANCEO F L O CAL TALENTby Joe Mattis, S I D .
When Dick Fox became thefirst* Athletic Director andBasketball
Coach at MercyhurstCollege a year ago, he knew therewas one
situation concerning localhigh school players that he wouldlike to
remedy. As a high schoolcoach in the area for 11 years, thelast
four of which were in Erieitself, Fox saw too many top areaplayers
going out of town to playtheir college basketball.A look at the L
akers roster forthe 1972-73 season shows he hasdone something about
tit. Of 15players on the team, six of themare from Erie and three
othersare from theErie area. Holdovers from his squad thatposted a
16-9 record a ye ar agoare senior J.C. Carter of ErieStrong';V
incent, junior DaveWieczorek of Erie 1 CathedralPrep, * and
sophomores SteveBrandon of Erie McDowell, DanBukowski of Erie?
CathedralPrep, Mike Emick of O il CityHigh and Jim Mahoney of
NoraEast High, f sr M feThen when Fox announced hisfreshmen
recruits f fort the upcoming" year there was BooRepko, another!
Cathedral Prepproduct, John Chojnacki, whoplayed locally for
TechMemorial, and Jeff Davern, astandout for jj Meadville \ High
ayea r ago.?: $ ]L . t'There are too many goodbasketball'players in
area highschools that could help us."commented F ox. "In the past,
forsome reason or another;, they hadbeen choosing to attend and
playball for colleges where it wouldbe difficult for their families
andfriends to see them regularly.
"If*we can get these boys toattend Mercyhurst, then thepeople
who have followed theirplaying days at the high schoollevel can
also watch mem perform for the L akers," continuedFox. "There is no
doubt in mymind that*:these3local boys canhelp us have a winning
basketballprogram here at Mercyhurst, butMercyhurst can also help
theboys obtain * a high qualityeducation." f-

team'sleading rebounder last season andsecond leading scorer. He
has anexcellent outside shot and moveswell on the inside. One
year'sexperience in college ball hasmatured Steve into a
smartplayer. His only drawback is thestrength of his knees. JSTEVE
BRANDON*One of the old men on the club,Buzz's leadership is
definitely anasset. Although not blessed withtremendous ability,
Steve'shustle and desire make him favery effective ballplayer.DAN
BUKOWSKI JDanny is well schooled to DickFox's style of basketball.
This ishis fourth season with the coach.Dan is valuable*coming off
thebench. He has a good outsideshot, and | plays an
aggressiveman-to-man defense.
J. C. CARTER ICaptain Carter;'is the {teamleader. He is probably
ithe mostconsistent Laker performer. Lastseason Jay was leading
scorer(20.6 points per game) and secondleading |? rebounder.
Hisknowledge of the game and hisdetermination to do the job
wellwould make J .C. a valuable assetto anycoach. *JJCiSoEi v A M r

There is , present! on ithiscampus, a work force co mprisedof
six young ladies clad in saddleshoes, blue knee socks, whitebody
shirt s, with a tiny skirt andvest combination boasting theLaker
"M". i f I 4Our CHEERLEADERS\ formthe nucleus of Mercyhu rs t '
sschool spirit with then* neverending dedi cat io n! and enthusiasm
I when bonded together,strike out to destroy apathy andc rea t e j
a sense? of harm onyamongst th e fans. ^ I ^ * ? BI recently had
the pleasure ofinterviewing each of th ese coedsindividually and
was quite impressed with their attitudes andfrankness to my
questions. Thesegirls d o care about t he college (inboth academics
and athletics), inyou, the Mercyhurst students andth e community's
view J of th isinstitution and its inhabitants.They do much m ore
th an merelystand in front of th e crowd yelling"go team, go!" They
give approximately eight hours a week(more if need be) of their
time,face vast amounts of criticism toimprove their performance
andpurchase most of their I ownequipment (this should excite
theBoard of Trustees!) plus workthe entire year on an almost
invisible budget of $300 (this couldmake for an interesting road
tripto Waterford and back !).But withstanding these fewannoyances
fyou'll find theseyoung women proud to bear thet i t l e of a "
Mercyhurs tC heerleader", for avariety ofreasons of which they
werewilling to share with me.So now let me introduce to you,the
Mercyhurst community, our1972-73 cheerleading squad::..-: First,
the captain, MarianneJacobs hailing from Rochester,New York, where
she spent herentire high school years as ac h e e r l e a d e r . r
' J a k e " is aSociology m a jo r and looks forward to working
with ch ildren ineither an orphanage or adoptionagency. She's an
active memberof R.U.S. and SA C and would liketo see adefinite
changeful theschoo l ' s a t t i t u de -e spec ia l lyconcerning
th e apath y segment ofcampus life. Mary Ann feelsthere's a "lot of
talk, b ut no action" around here, admittingt hough! basketball^has
t he mostsupport but it's really not strongenough! She's out to
help build abetter unity between sports andthe campus community.
Whenquestioned for a definite meaningin cheerleading she retorted:
"ffeel it'sga cheerleader's role to
alleviate some ofour campusapathy. I enjoy the sport ofpt-itwas
a I challenge to s t a r tsomething that never existed onthis
campus.? Jake has an optimistic outloo k for th e rest of theyear,
"the schoo l h as developed abe t ter soc ia l l i fe -i t 's
morecommuni ty-or ien ted now thanever before!* The campus
activities have brought Mercyhursttogether as a whole bo dy. I
thinkwe'll see a decline in apathy hereby the end of th e
year.*
Second, ranking as co-captain,is Chris Dodd also a member ofthe
Junior class;from Hornell,New**| Yo rk, 1majoringr inElementary-
Education with hermain emphasis leaning towardSpecial | Education.
One of thebusiest cheerleaders, Chris isactive in such
organizations asthe Council forExcept ionalChildren, R.U.S.,
working in theAdmissions Office and is an R A inBaldwin Hall. Chris
feels Mercyhurst is a "fantastic" schoolbut has a poor at t i tude
towardssports. S h e feels th is is a sad stateof affairs
considering the wide,long range programs offered hereat Mercyhurst.
"I can't believeth e disinterest--even in the girls'pro gram, when
such an avid pa rtof school life is spor ts! ' ' Chris h asbeen a
cheerleader since the 6 thgrade, "it has become an important part
of my life-keeps mein shape. I'm an avid sports fanand*feel
cheerleading is an important segment of sports." Shewent further to
explain her ro le-'Tm? not someo ne J standing |infront of t he
fans just screaming~Ishould be considered a guide toarouse support
forour p teamduring the games. Iget arealsense of involvement which
I feelI c a n share with the spectato r." I
Thirdly, I found whomfl wouldconsider probably theji mos
t"outspoken" gal ofthe entiresquad, w ho says exactly what sh
efeels to m ake her point clear andconcise. Mary Needham, ofAllison
Park, Pa., is also a secondyear veteran in th e ch eerleadingranks.
Elementary! Educa t ionwith 1 her main concentration inSpecia l
Educa t ion , compriseMary's major course of study.She also finds
herself involved inth e Council? for Except ionalC hi ldren and SA
C ! Being aveteran, I asked Mary what roleshe felt she played
during agame. 'T m out there to get thefans psyched-bu t they
thinkwe're o u t there for a show! We'reout there to "help ", not
to be thesole thing!" I elaborated abit
(tm:
further and asked what kind ofreaction th ey received--"The
onlytime you get a reaction from thecrowd is when
they're*drunk!"Mary feels the cheerleadersshould get mo re
recognition as aworking force, who reallytenjoyand take pride in
what they do,for th e college and themselves. |Rounding out the
Junior classcheerleaders is 'T.R." Clark.Tiny Renee" Clark stands
only5 ' tall, saddle shoes and all, buthas th e enthusiasm and
charismaof a real pro even though th is willbe her first year ever
as.? acheerleader! Renee's^hometownis Pit tsburgh, Pa. where
sheattended Canevin High School!"T.R." is active in R.U.S. and
canalso be found among .the paperwork in the Registrar's
Officeworking forMr. Billingsly.Renee's major is also Elementary
Education with r her mainconcentra t ion in SpecialEducation, ' The
promotion ofschool spirit and perh aps formingand working with a
Pep C lub areh er ideas of a cheerleader's role.. I Bev Welsh came
to Mercyhurstwith ft wo | years. c heer 1eadingexperience behind
her fromFoxboro High School, Foxboro,Mass., where she served as
thecaptain of her squad. Bev is asophomore Sociology major andhopes
to work in some aspect ofthis field upon graduation. Bev.believes
"involvement" is th e keyto alleviating th e schoo l's apath
y."Most students see school spiritas something corny, but I feel
ifmore peo ple in this schoo l wouldget involved, not just fin
varsityspor ts bu t a lso in t ramurals ,student government,{class
offices, choir, J e t c . , we wouldn'thave the time to even think
of theword apath y." Bev herself is anactive member in R.U.S. as
wellas cheerleading. jgB B8BK*Last, but not least, we have anErie
native-Kathy Jurkiewicz-also a sophomore, who attendedSt.
Benedict's Academy and wasa four year veteran on theircheerleading
squad. g K a t h y ,another Elementary $ Education-Special
Education major, hopesthe student body will have aserious attitude
change and notconsider the cheerleadingprogram a big joke. Kathy
feelsone sho uld participate Jin somearea o ther than purely
anacademic life tofulfill the"whole" college
experience."Cheerleading makes me feelI'm apartj of the team
eventhough I'm not on the court, Iguess it's th e best way to
expressmy spirit, and I love it!'ui
