It was the last bash as a student at Glassboro State and they weren ' t about to let this night slip by without celebrating. As the sun came up, graduates real- ized that they couldn ' t have wished for a nicer day. One might say that it was a beautiful day in the Boro. Spirits rose above the clouds as the Senior Class of ' 85 donned their caps and gowns and checked to make sure that the all-important tassle was in place. Friends and relatives of all ages and generations were try- ing to figure out where they would be able to best see their special graduate. It was a time for parents to beam with pride at the achieve- ments of their children. It was also a proud time for Dr. Herman James, who was addressing his first Glass- boro State College graduating class as President of the college. Most of all, it was a time of relief and reflec- tion as the seniors marched to their seats and started popping corks on the champagne bottles which were to be passed through the aisles. Excitement rose among all in an- ticipation of the opportunity to see and hear Sam Donaldson, the ABC News Chief White House Correspon- dent, who was the keynote speaker. Sam Donaldson lived up to his name as he delivered a captivating, down- to-earth address to the more than 1,900 graduates. Talking from expe- rience, Donaldson advised his audi- ence to always question convention- al thinking and to never just go with the crowd. Colin McKeon, President of the Class of 1985, addressed his fellow students with a look back at the past four years at Glassboro and a wishful look towards the future. He summed up what was going through the minds of all students when he said, If four years ago someone told me that I ' d grow so attached to a small college deep in the woods of South Jersey, I would have told them they were crazy. The highlight of the day was still yet to come. At the end of the cere- monies, the college concert choir started to sing, We Are The World, only to be accompanied by the whole crowd after just a few lines. Many people wept as chills raced up and down their spines. Following the commencement ceremony the graduates and their well-wishers gathered for a recep- tion on the lawn by Linden Hall. Pro- fessors proudly congratulated them and wished them luck. Good-byes were said among friends, but they didn ' t mean forever, as they prom- ised to keep in touch. 30 Graduation Graduation 31 32 Graduation Graduation 33 TROPICAL GSC ' 85 ticipation at the events during the Alochol Awareness Campaign. The campaign emphasized the impor- tance of Careful Drinkers Make Bet- ter Drinkers. This campaign was a major determinant in President -James ' decision to allow alcohol on campus for Spring Weekend. Con- gratulations Glassboro! You should be proud of yourselves for a job well done. ' W 5 April 24-28 the ' Boro enjoyed a weekend in Tropical GSC. A time for all students to forget about classes, studying and homework. Instead, everyone concentrated on enjoying themselves and partying. Spring Weekend began with a Shocbie-Bennie Night in the Rat for all students of age. At the same time, Jerry Abear was the host for a wild Beach Party in the Ballroom. Both events were a great success. Friday began another fun-filled day with the Cabaret Acts located in the Student Center. The twister contest started off the day followed by a group of comedians, breakdancers, and magicians who gathered to put on a spectacular show for the crowd. I was very pleased about the turnout, this was the first year we sponsored this and I think it was very successful, according to Jen- ny Lynch, coordinator. Another very successful event was the Lip Sync Contest. Students of all kinds strut- ted their stuff and imitated their fa- vorite singer. According to Lisa Cerny, this was the first successful Lip Sync Contest held at Glassboro. To top off Friday a drive-in movie, Eddie and the Cruisers was spon- sored by the Senior Class. The event under the big tent — The Sunshine Jam. Students from all over flocked to see a talented line-up of musicians. Bcru Revue started off the sunny afternoon with their popular, catchy tune, I Got a Job . Run DMC did a superb job of getting the crowd on their feet and moving. Finally our own up-and- coming local band the Hooters cap- tivated the crowd with their upbeat tunes. A picnic sponsored by the Sophomore class topped off the eventful weekend with a Faculty- Student Volleyball Game. The success of this year ' s Spring Weekend was partly due to the par- 34 Spring Weekend Spring Weekend 35 36 Spring Weekend Spring Weekend 37 38 Spring Weekend Spring Weekend 39 HOMECOMING ' 85 HOME FOR THE HOLIDAYS The success of the Homecoming King and Queen Pageant and fashion show on Wednesday night began a line of successful events for this year ' s Homecoming Weekend. There were many people in atten- dance to witness the crowning of the 1985 Homecoming King and Queen, Richard Kaspcr and Suzanne Par- mentier. The pageant was the first one held at Glassboro State College in ten years. The 21 and older crowd had a fun time at the Holiday Bash in the Rat on the Thursday night of Home- coming. WGLS D.J. ' s spun all the re- quests and even awarded albums to people who could name the D.J. ' s who were not in the Rat. WGLS si- mulcast their program from the Rat for those who could not attend. Many Class of ' 85 graduates made an appearance and kicked-off their big weekend back at the Boro. Most of the Rat crowd was later spotted at either the Study Hall Pub or the Brewery, as they partied into the wee-hours of the morning. At the same time, upstairs, in the Student Center Ballroom, the Class of 1988 hosted a Chinese New Year Dance party. The D.J. for the evening was none other than WYSP ' s own Jerry Abear. There were contests for the best dressed partiers and everyone enjoyed the non-alcoholic exotic Chinese drinks. Friday ' s events began with a Holi- day Gong Show. Over 400 people turned out to watch eight talented acts occur in the Ballroom. The TKE pledges, with their melody of the Greek alphabet gave them third place. Kimberly Foster ' s Gospel song gave her second place. Finally, Cheryl Orsini ' s rendition of The Rose, clutched first place. Later on Friday night, not even the drizzly rain could put out the fire. The Glassboro bonfire and pep rally was one of the highlights of the home- coming weekend as the flame sparked as high as Glassboro ' s en- thusiasm. 7 a fc V W 1 4 42 Homecoming Joining the spirit of Homecoming, crowds gathered for the traditional parade. Many sororities, fraterni- ties, organizations, and dorms par- ticipated in the all night float build- ing. Creativity was not lacking this year, as turkey floats, Santa Clans and Spring Break in Florida rolled by. The floats showed that Glass- boro was really Home for the Holi- days. The winners of the contest were ZBT and SDU with the float representing New Years Eve. All of the floats were original, much time was taken to build them and many laughs were had. The excitement of the Pep Rally really must have psyched the football players as they came to a 10-2 victory over Trenton State on Saturday afternoon. Saturday night at 8:00, a crowd gathered in the ballroom awaiting Backstrcets — A Tribute to the Boss. The crowd rocked through two and a half hours of Bruce ' s old and new material. Bruce fans appre- ciated Backstreets as a great band in themselves, as well as the next best thing to Springsteen. Once again the Homecoming spir- it lives on at G.S.C. as students, fac- ulty, and parents joined in this years successful event-filled weekend. Homecoming 43 44 Homecoming Homecoming 45 46 Homecoming Homecoming 47 48 Homecoming Homecoming 49 WELCOME DR. JAMES More that 600 guests gathered on the college green of Bunce Hall on April 20, 1985 at 12 noon for the inaugura- tion of Dr. Herman D. James. Dr. James came to Glassboro in 1982, from California State University, Northridge, where he had been vice president and a professor of sociology — to assume the position of vice president for academic affairs. Born in the Virgin Islands and raised in Harlem, he received his B.S. in education from Tuskegee Institute, Alabama, his masters in sociology from St. John ' s Uni- versity, Xew York, and his doctorate of sociology from the University of Pittsburgh. Dr. William C. Morris, acting Vice President for aca- demic affairs, presided over the ceremonies. The music was provided by the G.S.C. band. The ceremonies con- sisted of a prologue concert, the National Anthem, the invocation, inaugural address, and other greetings. A for- mal ball held at the Student Center culminated the day ' s activities. One of President James ' goals was stated, It is the notion of excellence, and the pursuit thereof which I present as the primary mission of Glassboro State Col- lege. 50 Inauguration Inauguration 51 52 Dr. James Inauguration Dr. James Inauguration 53 New Dorm Dedication The six-year project to expand and improve Glassboro State Col- lege began in June 1983, and the first phase came to a close with the official opening of Chestnut, Magno- lia, and Willow residence halls. The names of the buildings were chosen in keeping with Glassboro ' s tradi- tion of naming dorms after rivers and trees of New Jersey. In the fall of 1984, Magnolia and Willow Halls opened their doors to 192 students each. Chestnut, which opened in the fall of 1985, housed 366 with a total of 750 in the com- plex. Though the buildings have an out- side traditional appearance, the in- sides are very modern. The buildings are divided into 8 person suites, 2 per fully furnished bedroom. Suitemates share bath- room facilities and two suites are ar- ranged around a common living room and study area. 54 New Dorm Dedication New Dorm Dedication 55 Holocaust: A Day Of Rememberance The week of April 14, marked the 40th anniversary of the liberation of the Jews from the Xazi war camps. Over but not forgotten ... A Day of Rememberance was the theme the Hillel chapter presented during Ho- locaust Awareness Day. For those who survived this trage- dy, we are marking the end of a liv- ing nightmare. For those who did not, we are marking a remember- ance for them. A full schedule of events occupied the day. Slides, films, and displays documenting the autrosities were presented as a time-line through the history. Several guest speakers dis- cussed different aspects and exper- iences of the Holocaust. Tuvia Friedman, the keynote speaker, not- ed his 38 years as a Xazi hunter. By the end of the day, all who at- tended shared an educational, emo- tional and enriched program. The day was over, but not forgot- ten. End Pleasure Gas Ban S« . 1 DANES BATTLING NAZIS , Take Taganrog bi Soviet Sweep uno is a mm?

They discussed the in- creased crime rate, blaming its rise on poor role models for kids. Young kids are the ones to blame for this unprecedented increased rate of crime. Lisa Silva wants to solve this problem. Both Curtis and Lisa believe that the reason behind youths in crime is because of our so- ciety. They criticized Boy George, Madonna and Cyndi Lauper. These figures among others, portray a mes- sage of greed and self-centeredness of the youth. Since they started their program, seven years ago, the Guardian An- gels have made 580 citizen ' s arrests, yet have never used excessive force. Guardian Angels 57 Jim Florio speaks out on Financial Aid Congressman James Florio spoke at the Financial Aid Forum Day in the Student Center Pit on Wednes- day, April 10, 1985. The Congressman discussed the Department of Education ' s pro- posed restrictions on federal aid to higher education and other propos- als on Capital Hill. The Statewide Team on Educa- tional Issues promoted the event, providing an awareness towards fi- nancial aid. Also present was the Of- fice of Financial Aid, assisting with any questions on procedures dealing with receiving financial aid. 9 . j ii 58 Jim Florio Alcohol Awareness Day Gl huckster c %esourc Cent The Alcohol Awareness Day Fair, which was held in the Student Cen- ter on October 17, 1985 attracted many members of Glassboro State College. The Student Center was filled between 12:30 and 2:00p.m. with tables of information, a non-al- chololic bar, and a band. Thanks to the participation of many people, the audience was made aware of the fact that you don ' t need alcohol to have a good time. Among the participants were Jim Lovegrove and Sam Raffa, who served non-alcoholic look-a-like cocktails. Frank Winter, Clayton ' s Police Chief; Joe Williams, Director of the Gloucester County Intoxicat- ed Resource Center; Walt Sibley, Acting Administrator of the Tri- County council on Alcoholism and Joe Hale who represented the Glou- cester County Health Association also participated in the festivities. The main attraction for the fair was a Burlington County rock band, Artisan. This particular band was chosen because they were organized to promote responsible drinking after nearly losing their lead guitar- ist to a drunk driver. Thanks to the efforts of the Stu- dent Life and Development Organi- zation and their program Director, Sue Davies, who were responsible for the fair, Alcohol Awareness Day was a huge success. Alcohol Awareness Day 59 Jazzin ' Your Blues Away On October 17, 1985, jazz lovers at Glassboro State College were hon- ored with a fantastic opportunity to see and hear the Harlem Blues and Jazz Band at the Wilson Concert Hall. The band is an all-star group of veteran jazz and blues musicians whose roots reach to the classic pe- riod of the ' 20s and ' 30s. Founded in 1973 by a Westchest- er, N.Y. orthodontist and jazz au- thority, Al Vollmer, the band has re- ceived recognition as the definitive heirs to the Golden Age of Swing tra- dition. All the members played a part in the great bands from swing ' s heyday and all share a group enthu- siasm which sets them apart from big bands whose members come from a mixture of generations. The band opened the show with an upbeat number from the Duke Ellington Repertoire called the C Jam Blues. This was just the begin- ning of what turned out to be a great night! The Harlem Blues and Jazz Band kicked out many great tunes from the famous Count Basie, Eddie Durham, Fats Waller, George Kelly and Bobby Williams. One of the absolute highlights of the show was the magnificent vocal- ist, Laurel Watson. Laurel ' s voice sounded like it was custom made for the Harlem Blues and Jazz Band ' s style. No one left this show disappoint- ed. Even the band members couldn ' t conceal their pride and love of their music. What a night for jazz buffs! 60 Harlem Blues and Jazz Band Harlem Blues and Jazz Band ( 1 Who Muscled The crowds chattered, eagerly awaiting the night ' s event. Behind the curtain, men and women ner- vously undressed, oiled their bo- dies, and began to pump themselves up. Tonight was their big night, the night they had prepared for in sweat. Tonight was April 11, 1985, the night of Glassboro State ' s Annu- al Mr. and Ms. Physique Contest. The competition began as Rich Barca, the evenings host, introduced the competitors one by one. The women came out to perform nine traditional poses, followed by the men. Next, they were called upon to do their individual routines. This was where each bodybuilder ex- pressed his or her own personalities to the audience. Through their own choice of music, sequence and style of poses, each bodybuilder dazzled the audience. All displayed exceptional phys- ical fitness, but Rebecca Jaffe ' s and Lesroy Farrell ' s superior muscle tone and definition dominated the competition from the start, giving them the victory. Coming in second was Karen Enderly and Michael Mosca, and in third place was Mi- chelle Driks and John Zachau. The evening was one which all en- joyed. The bodybuilders command- ed the stage and the audience with beautiful displays of perfected physical fitness. The night was truly one which will be long remembered by all who attended. Mr. and Ms. Physique (53 Mr. Showtime A special guest speaker came to Glassboro on October 23, 1985 re- presenting Showtime, a pay cable T.V. station. The speaker explained the many aspects of Showtime as a business itself, as well as it ' s pro- motion, which included marketing and advertising strategies. Show- time aims to get customers and keep them. The overall presentation focused on the Honeymooners , an all-time fa- vorite show. Since the 1950 ' s we have been watching the same 59 epi- sodes, until recently when copies of the lost Honeymooners turned up. Mr. Showtime explained the techniques used in their promotion which was powered by 52 more Hon- eymooners shows. These ideas, part of a very successful campaign, served as an interesting presenta- tion, displaying the creative aspects behind the business of Showtime. 64 Mr. Showtime Backstreets . . . Mext Best Thing to The Boss On Saturday night, October 5, 1985 a crowd gathered in the ball- room awaiting Backstreets — A tribute to the Boss. The crowd anx- iously awaited the band, and after a late start they were wound up and ready to rock. They opened the first set with Born in the USA and Pink Cadil- lac, during which an 11 year old boy danced and played on stage with lead singer, Jerry Peil. After a short break they played another set until midnight, which included Fire, Growin ' Up, and Rosa- lita. They closed the show with a four song encore including Jersey Girl and Dancing in the Dark. Backstreets, originally from the Asbury Park area, have been play- ing the music of Bruce Springsteen for five years. They have played in local NJ shore spots, such as The Playpen in Wildwood, and Joe Pop ' s in Long Beach Island. The band provided a well bal- anced two and a half hour show of Bruce ' s old and new material. Back- streets — the next best thing to Springsteen! Backstreets 65 Governor: On Monday, October 27, 1985, the Glassboro State College Student Center Pit was a stop on the cam- paign trail for Governor Thomas Kean. The Governor spoke to a crowd of approximately 350 students. He dealt with the importance of higher education in New Jersey in general and the autonomy bills and chal- lenge grants in specific. Governor Kean ' s theme during his campaign was bringing back pride to New Jersey. He also had pride in endorsing two Republican candi- dates for Assembly in the third dis- trict — Glassboro ' s own Executive Assistant Jack Collins and Glouces- ter County Freeholder Gary Stuh- trager. A footnote to this story, on Elec- tion Day Governor Kean defeated Peter Shapiro by a 70% to 30% mar- gin. Jack Collins and Gary Stuhl- trager defeated the incumbents by more than 1,000 votes. Thomas Kean 66 Governor Kean Governor Kean 67 Member The Member of the Wedding is a play which raises many questions about love, death and the changes occurring from childhood to young adulthood. The production style re- flected the mid 1940 ' s as well as the location and manner of speech. The job of Frankie Addams, the protagonist, is to accompany her newly married brother and his wife on their honeymoon, and then live with them for the rest of their lives. Though this did not work out, the play held an optimistic tone. The actors, appropriately cos- tumed in realistic outfits reflecting the dress period of the times, played their roles well. There were some conventions to the set such as a pre- tend kitchen wall, and an upstairs to the house. However, these did not pose as a problem, as the actors con- formed to these conventions very well. The Member of the Wedding was an enjoyable play due not only to the technical aspects, but mainly for the realistic and detailed acting. Each character represented ideas and issues, brought them out into the open and dealt with them. The play was a valid one, that all can identify with. 68 Member of the Wedding of the Wedding Member of the Wedding 69 College-Community Orchestra The Wilson Concert Hall hosted the Glassboro State College Com- munity Orchestra, on Tuesday Nov. 12, 1985. The Orchestra conducted by Robert Taylor and accompanied by Adeline Tomasone on flute, put on a fine performance. At age 13, Ms. Tomasone began her musical career with the Phila- delphia Orchestra. Since then she has played with the Opera Company of Philadelphia, Davidsbund Cham- ber Players, Mozart Society and many others. She is also a member of the Glassboro Faculty Woodwind Quintet. Siegfried ' s Rhine Journey, Fantai- sie Pastorale Hongroise for Flute and Orchestra, Chacony in G Minor for Strings, and Iberia Images for Orchestra, No. 2, were the major components of the concert. The concert was full of holiday bells crescending into festive sounds and rhythms for all to enjoy. I 70 College-Community Orchestra Reflections of a Genius: Thomas Edison Thomas Edison came to life on No- vember 6, 1985 at the Wilson Con- cert Hall. An Evening with Thomas Edi- son: Reflections of a Genius was part of the Glassboro State College Celebrity Concert Series, and over one hundred people watched as Pat Hingle showed the human side of Thomas Edison. The show came about following Hingle ' s successful portrayal of Edison in several Gen- eral Electric commercials. A scratched old oak desk sitting on a frayed Persian rug set the stage, as Edison hobbled back and forth telling his story. I don ' t want to be carved out of stone! I am living mat- ter! he exclaimed. Edison, whose first invention was the telegraph, was thrown out of school and educated himself through the Detroit Free Library. Edison also created the light bulb, generator and power plant and often had 44 different inventions being worked on at the same time at his Midland Park research lab. The show humanized a man who has become a legend. Hingle re- minded us that Edison had weak- nesses, problems and angers. Hingle received a CLIO Award for his por- trayal of Thomas Edison in the Gen- eral Electric commercials. Thomas Edison 71 NO ONE DISAPPOINTED, AS PAUL YOUNG CAPTIVATES GLASSBORO AUDIENCE As the gym lights dimmed, the anticipation of the crowd caused everyone to rise to their feet. Out of the darkness a tape recording of Gene Kelly ' s Singing in the Rain confused its listeners until Paul Young joined in on this uncut version of an American classic. The crowd screamed as the stage lights revealed Paul and his eight man band, The Royal Family Young held nothing back as he aroused the crowd for two hours. His adoring fans went crazy as he leaped, swiveled, crawled, and danced on stage. The enthusiasm he felt towards his songs was immediately shared throughout the gym. It was clearly shown when Young performed I ' m Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down. The audience danced to the beat and sang out the lyrics as though they were the performers. A hush fell over Esby as Paul serenaded every young woman with his version of Broken Man. His eyes re- vealed a sincerity that engrossed the crowd. Every wom- an ' s heart was in her throat as Paul cried out the words to this song. Young sang many of the songs on his first two albums, No Parlez and The Secret of Association. The concert included such hits as Love of the Common People, Stay (For Good This Time), Wherever I Lay My Hat (That ' s my Home), and Everything Must Change. The Royal Family, including three superb backup sing- ers, truly complimented Young ' s performance. It was easy to see that Young and his band are a family. Paul Young concluded his outstanding performance with his top ten hit, Everytime You Go Away. During this song, Paul clearly had control of his audience. As everyone sang along with him, they changed the words in the chorus to Everytime you go away, you take a piece of us (instead of me) with you. After standing on their feet for over two hours, the crowd seemed to linger around after the house lights went back on, almost unwilling to admit that the night was over. 72 Paul Young Art Clokey . . . Creator of Gurnby Avid GSC Gumby fanatics gath- ered on November 4, 1985 in the Ballroom to learn all about the mys- terious life of Gumby from his cre- ator, Art Clokey. Clokey, a U.S.C. graduate, got his start in the busi- ness by making commercials for Coca Cola and Budweiser back in the ' 50 ' s. In 1953 Clokey, who also created Davey and Goliath, was ap- proached by some producers who asked him to come up with a cre- ative idea to improve children ' s pro- gramming. And that he did — with clay! Gumbasia, a play on the name Fantasia, was the first Gumby flick all about Gumby ' s birthplace. Clokey had two weeks to produce this and it was done in miniature, which meant low cost and less time. Gumbasia was created in Clo- key ' s own garage in two weeks. We also saw several other Gumby classics like The Groo Bee, Gumby Crosses the Delaware, Ricochet Pete, The Small Plan- ets, and The Clay Peacock. When asked why Gumby has a hump on one side of his head, Clo- key passed around a picture of his father at graduation. I understood as soon as I saw the picture and laughed along with the crowd. Clo- key ' s father proudly sported a fancy hairdo with a curly mound of hair piled on the left side of his head. Gumby is a living tribute to the el- der Clokey. Fans can look forward to a forth- coming Gumby movie in ' 86. Keep an eye out for Tara, Gumby ' s girl- friend! 74 Gumby Forty Years of United Nations The year of 1985 marked the 40th anniversary of the creation of the United Nations. The Glassboro State College International Studies and the Glassboro State College U.N. Chapter presented Jean Ber- nard Gazarian, the special assistant for General Assembly affairs. With 39 years of experience in the United Nations, Gazarian spoke of the fight for membership from the original 51 nations to the current number of 159. He told his audience of the importance of the only univer- sal forum in the world. Gazarian ended his talk by pre- senting Glassboro State College with an official flag of the United Nations and a commemorative med- al of the United Nations ' 40th anni- versary. United Nations 75 MISS BLACK GSC Omega Psi Phi presented the Sixth Annual Miss Black Glassboro State College Pageant on November 23, 1985. Five young women compet- ed in five different areas for the ti- tle. These areas were speech, casual wear, creativity, formal wear and spontaneous question. Deborah Smith, a junior Commu- nications major, won the title of Miss Black GSC. Dawn Leary, a second year Business Administration major, was awarded second place. Danielle LaSure, Terri Johnson, and Antoi- nette Wilson placed third, fourth, and fifth respectively. This year the pageant exper- ienced a great increase in the amount of support received from other black student organizations. The winner of the pageant serves as a responsible representative of the black student population. 76 Miss Black GSC Miss Black GSC 77 Bandorama The GSC Marching Band held a Bandorama on Thursday, November 21 in the Wilson Concert Hall. It was the first time the band performed an indoor show. The Marching Band, which performs at football games, decided to play indoors because of the cool weather. This year ' s Marching Band has improved with the addition of new members and renewed enthusiasm. The Band ' s enthusiasm is due in part to the new assistant band direc- tor, Bill Wilkinson who designed the marching show and taught maneu- vers while Dr. Owen Metcalf, band director, handled the music. 78 Bandorama Bandorama 79 Cords Crew Once again the Cords Crew, in coordination with Levi Strauss and Company, took the public relations challenge. The Cords Crew, mem- bers of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA), con- sisted of: Paul Capelli, John La- Place, Eileen Wallace, Cheryl Run- quist, Thomas Cording, Stuart Katz, Linda Maglionico, and Susan Von- acka. The Crew ran many successful fund raising activities. The first ac- tivity was the Cord-a-Que, a bar- becue where an extremely large pair of Levis were displayed. Another ac- tivity was the Cord-a-Wars where participants competed in such events as tug-a-cord, cord carry- ing, and a three-legged race. The winner of the Cord-a-Wars was Sigma Phi Epsilon. Also during that month, The Study Hall Pub contributed to the fund raising by having a Levi Cords Night. It was a night full of games, contests, and other promotional ac- tivities. Even the Bud Man was on hand to share in the fun. To help promote the Levi Cords on Campus Month, weekly Cordlets (sniglets) appeared in The Whit. Also contributing to the success of the campaign was WCAU-FM, Phila- delphia ' s leading top forty radio sta- tion. The month came to a very success- ful close as the Cords Crew col- lected donations and established the Cords for Cures Fund. 80 Cords Crew Sit-up King In November of 1984, Tim Kides captured the world record by doing 30,001 sit-ups, only to be beaten two weeks later. Tim then tried again in March of 1985 and broke the record by 4,948 sit-ups. Before he could make the Guinness Book, his record was again broken by someone else. On the afternoon of November 14, 1985, Tim Kides began his final at- tempt at 100,000 sit-ups. Tim was allowed to rest only five minutes ev- ery hour. He did not eat any solid food and was unable to sleep. Train- ing for this marathon was impossi- ble. Kides attributes his success to the support of his fellow students. The Levi ' s Cords Crew was Kides ' biggest supporter. On November 17th at 7:22am, Kides attempt at 100,000 sit-ups ended due to severe leg cramps. He did, however, set a new world record of 72,746 sit-ups, over 25,000 more than the previously held record. Channel 10 personality, Sheela Al- len-Stephens, was astounded by Kides ' determination as she joined him in doing a dozen sit-ups. Not only did Kides receive nationwide coverage, he also supported Project Santa by raising about $150 for The Valerie Fund. 82 Tim Kides Tim Kides 83 PROJECT SANTA ' 85 Project Santa ' 85 started with a blaze with the traditional tree light- ing ceremony on Tuesday, December 3rd. This year a new twist was add- ed; 110 candleholders formed a huge star around the tree. Throughout the week many fund raising activities took place. Local merchants filled the Student Center to create a market of various goods. A celebrity auction was held on Wednesday night and raised Si, 900. This event was sponsored by the sophomore class. The highlights of the evening were visits from Mike Haddix and Byron Darby of the Philadelphia Eagles, the Philly Phanatic, and the uncanny humor of Glassboro ' s own, Ed Streb. On the following evening, students rocked around the clock at the sock hop held in the ballroom. The most exciting day of Project Santa was Friday which started with a feud . . . The Family Feud. Women In Communications spon- sored the event with Dennis Mercier playing Richard Dawson. Many or- ganizations around campus joined the fun, with ADE surviving the feud and taking first place. That night Project Santa came to a close with a New Years ' Celebration. The ADE Drag Beauty Contest start- ed the evening ' s events with eight hairy beauties giving their all to become the Miss ADE Drag Beau- ty. The stunning Mark Griffiths was crowned with the title. The evening wound down with the Annu- al TKE Slave Auction followed by the Battle of the Bands, with Para- dox being the evenings favorite. Project Santa ' 85 raised over 87,500 for the Valerie Children ' s Center in Plainfield. This center serves as an immediate cancer treat- ment center for inflicted children. 84 Project Santa Project Santa 85 86 Project Santa Project Santa 87 boeo Leadership By Example GSC Hillel SPIRIT OF ' 86 CONCERT CHOIR PROJECT SANTA GAMMA TAU SIGMA Class of ' 89 ORGANIZATIONS Student Government Association President SFCB Chair Paul Capelli Tina Rolando Executive VP Senate Chair Carol Ann Belcher Mark Lunger Second VP PR Co-Directors Jennifer Lynch Heather Cahill Ron Johnson Treasurer Ken Siegel Statewide Team Chair Secretary Rick Kramer Sue Parmentier Advisor Robert Zazzali 90 Organizations Organizations 91 Student Financial Control Board Chairman Tina Rolando Vice Chairman Ken Siegel Secretary Ray Soltys Treasurer Ray Soltys Advisor Robert Collard 92 Organizations Class of 1986 President Peter Price Vice President Scott Kramer Secretary Liz Healy Treasurer Pam Lutz Advisor Thomas Podorsky Class of 1987 President Chris Plunkett Vice President Ron Johnson Secretary Andrea Koelbel Treasurer Tina Rolando Advisor Sal Spina Organizations 93 Class of 1988 President Keith Forrest Vice President Wendy McLees Secretary Russell Meyer Treasurers Kathy Styles Maureen Drewes Advisors Cindy Lynch Karen Siefhng-Messer Class of 1989 President Bill Saccomanno Vice President John McQoarty Secretary Andrea Walsh Treasurer Cheryl Orsini 94 Organizations Student Activities Board Organizations 95 Gamma Tau Sigrru President Deborah Bridge Vice President Helen Jenkins Secretary Margie McLaughlin Treasurer Ken Siegel Advisor Jack Davies a mum Project Santa Director Kim Krowitz Asst.

The Glassboro State College squad is doing more lifts and building higher pyramids than ever before. They cheer at all varsity football and basketball games. Homecoming weekend, they took a large part in the pep rally bonfire to arouse the spirits of the college students. They are a very dedicated squad. Co-captains for the 1985-86 season are Suzanne Rechleff and Michele Wogan. r 142 Cheerleading Cheerleading 143 Baseball The 1985 Baseball Profs exper- ienced a season of ups and downs and unfortunately for the br own and gold, mostly the downs. Head coach, Mike Briglia, suffered through his first losing season in twenty years with an over-all record of 15-16 and 8-8 in conference play. Inexperience was probably the main cause in this sub-par season as several key positions had to be re- placed by underclassmen or trans- fers. After a torrid start (including a 4- 2 Florida trip) in which the Profs were 8-2, coach Briglia ' s troops just couldn ' t find the right combination of hitting, pitching and defense. In many games a bushel of runs from the Prof offense (season avg of 7.03 runs per game) was not enough or a superb pitching performance was wasted by the lack of hitting and poor defense. The explosive offense was led by seniors, Captain Kevin Healey and Frank Davis and freshman Al Cica- tiello, the team ' s rookie of the year. Sophomore John Adams, who led the team with 28 RBI ' s, and junior transfer Frank Scaramuzzo, with a team high of 6 home runs, also swung some potent bats. Senior shortstop Tom Troost, the team ' s most valuable player, was hampered by injuries throughout the season. Despite missing several games he still managed to turn out a first rate season and led the Prof team with a .451 batting avg. The prof mound corps was devis- tated early when it was learned that senior Captain Dale Cross would see only spot action because of a bad shoulder. As a result, the bulk of the pitching rested on the arms of new- comers Rob Higbee, Bob Wright and Neil Hourahan. Junior Chris Adams and a crop of young freshman were also forced to help pick up the slack. As a result the team just missed qualifying for a playoff birth in the tough N.J.S.A.C. in their quest for post season play. The highlight of the season came when the Profs neatly disposed of the defending Di- vision III National Champions, the Ramapo Roadrunners, in a Confer- ence double header on Prof turf, 11- 9 and 6-5. 1 144 Baseball Baseball 145 sn ' s Cross Country Coach Bill Fritz led the Men ' s Cross Country team to an easy victo- ry over New Jersey Tech and Mont- clair. Against Montclair the profs runners finished second through tenth. For Glassboro, Steve Sapon- ara was second (25:46) followed by Andy O ' Donnell (25:48), and Tim Malloy (25:56). In a non-conference meet against Kutztown, Don Deckert, Scott Cos- tello, and Bob Pvott all tied in the meet with a 25:05, leading the profs to victory again. Glassboro also placed three other runners in the top ten — Andre Burton, Steve Sa- ponara, and Dan Fourney. Glassboro ' s team continued to shine, winning their twelfth straight N.J. Athletic Conference ti- tle, with wins over Stockton and William Paterson. It also marked the 51st consecutive win in confer- ence dual meets. 146 Men ' s Cross Country Women ' s Cross Country The Women ' s Cross Country team finished another successful season, placing third in the conference as well as in the states. Captain of the team, senior Kathy Wherry has led the Profs for four years. Third year Jennifer Rainey and second year Margaret Ginter re- turned this year to power the team. Tracey Engell, Laura Saponara and Andrea Vasile added pep to the team as first year runners. In the meet against Swarthmore, Jennifer Rainey finished first with a winning time of 20:02, naming her Female Athlete of the Week. Kathy Wherry and Jennifer Rainey both were members of the All Conference and All State teams. Glassboro State finished 3rd in the Temple Invitational Meet, of the third division. Scorers in this meet were Kathy Wherry, finishing 10th and Jennifer Rainey, finishing 14th. Andrea Vasile, Margaret Ginter and Tracey Engell also added points for the Profs. The girls combined efforts, along with the coaching of Nancy Buhrer, made for a great season. Women ' s Cross Country 147 Men ' s Tennis In the Spring, the Men ' s Tennis team, led by second year coach, Stan Celia, worked together for an- other successful season. The Profs opened their season on March 28, 1985 only to tackle an ambitious schedule that included a sprinkling of Division I and II schools, in addi- tion to the Division III conference teams. Members of the team includ- ed senior: Ron Schlegel, juniors: Greg Douglas, Don Fritch, Jeff Len- iart and Steve Jannarone, sopho- more: Mitch Einstein, and freshmen: Joe Dougherty, Chris Riebesell, Ste- phen Ruggiero, and Brad Scull. The Profs ended their season on May 1, with an overall record of 12-4. 148 Men ' s Tennis Women ' s Tennis The Women ' s Tennis team, led by coach Rod Norris, had a pretty tough season. Despite the effort of the girls and their coach, they fin- ished with a record of 3-12. Playing on the team were seniors: Alexis Korsak and Terry McCormick, ju- niors: Pat Fralinger, Laurie Haegele, and Donna McDermott, and fresh- men: Denise Obre and Kelli Weeks. Pat Fralinger had an outstanding season with a record of 7-7. Also, Laurie Haegele finished with record of 5-9, both girls playing singles. In spite of the fact that as a team, the girls had a tough season, they all de- serve credit. % is Women ' s Tennis 149 Men s Track and Field f : 7 One of the biggest challenges the Glassboro State College Men ' s Track team faced this year was re- taining their NCAA Division III Track Championship title with only II athletes. The Prof ' s reign of five straight NCAA Championships end- ed this year when the men ' s track team finished eighth overall. Al- though there was no team victory, there were several personal tri- umphs. Nine Glassboro State College ath- letes won All-American honors at the 1985 Division III Track Champi- onship held at Denison University in Granville, Ohio. The 4x400 meter relay including freshman Tom Adams, senior Ron Moore, freshman Keith Thomas and senior anchor Willie Lawson, fin- ished first in 3:11:57. All-American Don Decker came in fourth in the 3000 steeplechase with 9:05:06. Lawson earned his sec- ond All-American honor with a fourth place in the 400 meters with a time of 47:79. Freshman Jason Mouring took third in the 110 meter hurdles with 14.39 and senior Mike Graffeo finished eighth in the 10,000 meters with a time of 33.56.53. Glassboro State College Men ' s Track team also set records and cap- tured bronze and silver medals in the 91st Annual Penn Relays held in April 1985. The 4x200 relay team with Ron Moore, Rich Forbes, Keith Thomas and Willie Lawson won a bronze met- al with a Glassboro best-ever of 1:25:2. The same four athletes set a 4x400 school record in the qualify- ing time clocking 3.12.10, and fin- ished second in the finals. The Glassboro State College Men ' s Track Team is the only team to have won five straight Division III Track Championships. Coach Os- car Moore contributes the success to hard work and regular competition with Division I schools. According to Moore, the future of the team looks bright. Everyone will be back for the 1986 season when they will try to recapture the championship title in Atlanta, Georgia. 150 Men ' s Track and Field Women ' s Track and Field The 1985 season for Women Track and Field was a strength building season, not only in muscle but in membership as well. Coach Nancy Buhrer ' s team improved be- cause of a larger turnout of athletes. The return of last year ' s standout performers like three-time All- American javelin thrower Emma Painter (who earned her way to the national championship with a quali- fying toss of 140-9), distance stan- douts Pam Okolita and Kathy Wherry, and a handful of other solid performers was a push in the right direction. The team had solid per- formers in most of the events. Bill Fritz, the head coach of the men ' s cross-country team at Glass- boro, divided his time between the men ' s and women ' s track teams which showed in the results. As an example, Buhrer pointed out the team ' s meet against Trenton State. Last year the Trenton squad outs- cored Glassboro by 64 points. This year they cut that gap down to 37 points. The team placed second to Tren- ton State College in the Jersey Ath- letic Conference track champion- ships, tallying 46 points. Trenton scored 77 points. Emma Painter tossed the javelin 125-7 to win the event. Tracy Ingell placed second to Painter in the javelin with a 114-10 toss, and the soph performer also recorded a second in the high jump. On the track, Lynn Troiani picked up a pair of thirds, winning medals in the 3,000 and 800 meter runs, while Pam Okolita placed second in the 1500 and third in the 3,000. Overall, it was a good year in terms of the total program making progress with a 3-4 record. The girls worked hard and it showed. Women ' s Track and Field 151 Lacrosse Glassboro ' s Women ' s Lacrosse team started off what was to be a good season with their 13-10 victory over Swarthmore College. Knowing that they hadn ' t beaten Swarth- more in the previous four years add- ed icing to the cake. Frosh Sonia Martines added a three-goal effort in the win, while Misty Poole, Valer- ie Genzano and Renee Cioffi also scored. The GSC stickers team ran into a whirlwind in the form of defending national champ Ursinus and dropped a 23-6 decision. But, with soph Sonia Martines scoring eight goals, the team rebounded to top Philadelphia Textile, 15-11, to up its mark to 2-1. Later in the season Glassboro ' s relatively young defense showed against Trenton State, as Trenton rallied for a 9-8 win. But veteran goalie Elaine Ellis kept hopes up through-out the game as she turned away 32 shots. At the other end of the field, vet Sheila Howard tallied four goals to increase her team-lead- ing total, while Misty Poole added three goals and Sonia Martines also scored. Following the loss to Trenton, coach Penny Matthews ' Lady Profs showed their spirit by coming back with a pair of big wins. Led by Sonia Martines six goals, the Lady Profs topped Montclair State, 18-5, then Denise Eldridge tallied four goals to lead the way past Salisbury State, 13-4. The two wins upped the team ' s re- cord to 6-3 on the season which paved the way for two more wins over Villanova and East Strouds- burg leaving the team with a suc- cessful 8-5 season. 152 Lacrosse Field Hockey Glassboro ' s Field Hockey team looked great in ' 85 on top with three victories in their first three games against Immaculata (6-0), Montclair (6-2), and King ' s College (4-1). The week of September 23, was jam- packed but the team was ready, win- ning three games on Tuesday, Thurs- day, and Saturday against Kean, Gettysberg, and William Paterson. Kathy Edwards, Renee Leo, Mi- chelle Steinhauer, Cyndee Graham, Michlle Knisley, Renee Cioffi, Caro- line Cioffi, Lisa Scafidi, Sharon Pa- terson, and Mary Jo Timothy com- bined efforts for a victorious season. Field Hockey 153 Softball Glassboro State ' s Softball team, the Lady Profs had a record of 24-16- 1 for the 1985 season. Cathy Kunz Is the head coach of the Lady Profs. To start the season, the Lady Profs went to South Carolina to play 12 games in eight days. They fin- ished with a record of 4-7-1. Senior Diane Sorantino and junior Andrea Bramante served as co-cap- tains for the 1985 season. Sorantino was the teams top hitter and also a standout defensive shortstop. Coach Kunz ' s trio of freshman pitchers, Kim Higgins, Trish Straw, and Tammy Edick, all first year per- formers, demonstrated a fine dis- play of mound work. The leaders at bat were Beth Kerr, Andrea Bramante, Diane Sor- antino and Jayne Mauro, all of which can really power the ball. Sophomore Amy Goonewardede served as a designated batter and also defended home as a dynamite catcher. As a team, the Lady Profs demon- strated high spirited enthusiasm and fantastic work as a unit. Stick- ing together and working with each other, the Glassboro State Women ' s Softball team ended with a fine sea- son. 154 Softball Volleyball Last year the Glassboro State Women ' s Volleyball team won its first New Jersey Athletic Confer- ence Championship. It was the first winning season in the history of GSC Volleyball. This year the profs continued their winning streak with their sec- ond New Jersey Athletic Conference Championship. The team finished their season with a conference re- cord of ten wins and zero losses and an overall record of 37-7. In the New Jersey Athletic Con- ference, Glassboro played Stockton, Jersey City, William Paterson, Kean and Rutgers Newark and won every game. In addition to the Conference Championship, the team won sever- al tournaments. The GSC Women ' s Volleyball team played Molloy College, Concor- dia College, City College of New York, King ' s College, Kean College, U.S. Merchant Marines Academy and South Hampton College at the Brooklyn Tournament and won the Tournament not having lost a game. Although the team placed fourth in the Rochester Tournament, they won the New Jersey Institute of Technology ' s Tournament the next weekend. The team was ranked 19th in the nation and third in the South region. However, the team met some tough competition at the Western Mary- land Tournament and came out in fifth place. Returning to the team this year were Kim Clendining, Donna Gath- right, Amy Goonewardene, Sandy Ladzinski, Maureen Leavitt, Magda Menner, Shona Reichardt, Mary Simmons, Michele Solack, Diane Sorantino, Dawn VanderWal and Toni Wilson. Newcomers to the team included Jill Dilatush, Holly Fel- lows, Caren Hector, Tracey Maurer, Laura Russo and Kim Sperber. The season was Penny Matthews ' fifth season as head volleyball coach. IT. 5 16 24 11 13 27 Volleyball 155 FOOTBALL Two words could describe the 1985 Glassboro State Football team: exciting and heartbreaking. The Prof gridmen finished up their season with a 5-5 over-all record and 4-2 in the New Jersey State Athletic Conference. In their last three losses they were beaten by a total of 6 points and once again the NJSAC title came down to the last game of the season against Conference foe Mont- clair State. Unfortunately the 17-16 score gave the victory to the Mont- clair Indians. The 1985 Profs did have a tremen- dous season offensively. Not only did junior quarterback Larry Lewis re- semble Dan Marino, he also played like him passing for 2039 yards and a total of 165 completions out of 334 attempts with 16 touchdowns. Complimenting the strong arm quarterback were two excellent re- ceivers: Seniors Mike Yorke and John Adams. Co-Captain Yorke was hindered by injuries in early season but was virtually unstopable during the second half. He led the Prof re- ceivers with 43 receptions for an as- tonishing 612 yards and received 1st Team Conference Honors. Almost as lethal as the Prof air attack was the 33 year old place kicker John Womack. Womack made 6 field goals out of 1 1 attempts and kicked 26 for 28 point after at- tempts (P.A.T.s). He booted a 46 yard field goal against Jersey City State and his 44 points scored tied him for a team high record. On defense the gridmen did have some problems, but still had some outstanding players. Senior Co-Cap- tain John Fernee led the squad with 127 tackles. The stocky linebacker also received 1st Team in the Confer- ence. Also turning in a banner year on defense was another 1st Team Con- ference player Brian Adkisson. A ju- nior safety, Adkisson picked off 5 in- terceptions and made 62 tackles. I 156 Football Football 157 Men ' s Swimming The Men ' s Swimming and Diving team, led by Co-Captains George Glover and Darren Hickman was one of the strongest in the nine year reign of coach Tony Lisa. The team met strong competition and yet posted a very good record. After a 12 day training trip to the Hall of Fame Pool in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, the team demonstrated out- standing team depth and great speed. Led by the outstanding dis- tance one-two punch of Garr Kerr and Kevin Franceschini, the team was up to the challenge of the ambi- tious schedule. Sprinters Jeff Reeves, Tony Yu, and Tom Ens helped to make up a very fast final relay that beat Swarthmore early in the season. Glover, Hickman, Sor- elle, Brown, and Heckman com- bined with the sprinters and dis- tance swimmers to place high in the East-West swim meet in Florida. The team swam against George- town, West Chester, Rider, East Stroudsburg, Kutztown, and confer- ence teams as well as the opponents in the Tri-State Championships con- sisting of Duquesne, Loyola, Wash- ington and Lee, UMI, and Frostburg. 158 Men ' s Swimming Women ' s Swimming The Women ' s Swimming team, led by coach Donna O ' Leary, opened their season on November 25, 1985 against East Straudsburg. East Straudsburg is a Division II school with a tough reputation for the Profs to open their season against. Losing their opening meet with a score of 33-105, the women swimmers were not discouraged. They set a goal to double the number of wins from last season. Last year the Profs finished with a 3-11 mark. Returning for her fourth year on the team is Lynne German. German swam long dis- tance her previous three years. Ka- ren Enderly and Michele Strano are other seniors on the team. Other members of the team include Ju- niors; Deirdre Flannery, Patricia O ' Hara, Elizabeth Wolfington, Soph- omores; Suzanne Heither and Kelli Umstetter. Umstetter is filling in for a graduated All-American swimmer Connie Ewing. The freshman on the team include Jane Joyce, Nicole Ka- plan and Trisha Wysocki. Women ' s Swimming 159 Soccer Last year the Glassboro State Col- lege men ' s soccer team ' s 14-4-2 sea- son record was short of a bid for post season competition for the first time in seven years. This year the team not only won the New Jersey Athletic Conference but also placed first in the Pennsylvania New Jer- sey region. They played in the na- tionals and came in fourth, losing 2- 1 to Washington University (MO). Coach Dan Gilmore had high hopes that this year ' s blend of vet- erans and newcomers would turn out to be one of his best teams ever. The front line was improved with the return of players, Irakalis Bour- inaris and Greg Boyle. Also in the front line were newcomers, Tony Cantaffa, Robbie Newman and Steve Wink. Mike VanBrill and Todd Sintac, joined All-Conference co- captain Tom Olbrich in playing mid- field. Glen Cargan, Paul O ' Donnell and Greg Wiebolt along with All- Conference co-captain Mike Adams played back positions. Eric Von Hirsh and Bob Harris played goal- keepers. Also playing for the GSC team were Keith DeCollewaert, Ray Lam- bert, Ed Monacchio and Larry Wil- liams. Newcomers to the team in- cluded Jack Bernstein, Eric Hlava, Chris Logar and Jamie McGroaty. Coach Dan Gilmore ended his tenth season as head coach with the New Jersey Athletic Conference Coach of the Year Award. Forward Greg Boyle was chosen as a first team all-star and was the highest goal scorer in New Jersey with 19 goals. Mike Adams was also select- ed as a first team all-star. if 4 t % v y r 1 Vetl 160 Soccer 1 Glen Gargan, Rob Newman and Tom Olbrich were chosen for the second team. Gargan was also named Rookie of the Year. Irakalis Bourinaris and Mike Van Brill made the third team and Todd Sintac re- ceived honorable mention. The GSC men ' s soccer team ' s sea- son started with their second Nike Invitational Tournament Champion- ship. Glassboro shut out Castleton State 2-0, and defeated Ithaca Col- lege 2-1. The team played the Uni- versity of Delaware, Jersey City, Widner, Wilkes, Swarthmore, Tren- ton State, Rutgers-Newark, William Paterson, Stockton State, Colorado College, Regis College, Rutgers- Camden, Salisbury, Kean, Montclair State, Kutztown, Ramapo, Eliza- bethtown and Millerville. The team finished the season with a record of 17-4-3 and 7-0-2 in the New Jersey Athletic Conference, winning their fourth conference ti- tle. ■ft Iff 1 Soccer 161 ICE HOCKEY A 4-2 victory over Penn State was the highlight of the Men ' s Ice Hock- ey season. This game kept them in a three way tie for second place in the Delaware Valley Collegiate Hockey Conference. The team ' s record stood at 3-3-1 in the league. Last year their season ended with a 5-9 record. Tom Borkowski had the most points scored for his second year in a row, with 16 goals and 21 assists. It was former G.S.C. iceman Bruce Lawrence ' s second year as head coach. Statistician and team man- ager Monique Dowgin worked her third year with the squad. Seniors on the team included Paul Timko; defenseman, Tom Bor- kowski; center, Bob O Donnell; cen- ter; Jeff Hoover; center, and John Glessner; goaltender. Returning squad members are Tom Connors; right wing, Dave LT11- man; left wing, Steve Ruggerio; right wing, Pat Forrest; left wing, Steve Marchunt; left wing, Jeff McDade; right wing, and Scott Weigers; defen- seman. 162 Ice Hockey Ice Hockey 163 MEN ' S BASKETBALL This year ' s basketball team be- gan the season with great expecta- tions. Everyone was back from the previous season, and it looked as if the 1985-86 squad would be one of the school ' s best. Unfortunately, things did not work out as planned. In the first scrimmage Rodney Da- vis, who was team captain and prob- ably one of the best players i n the conference, broke his ankle and was unavailable for most of the season. This was the beginning of a long list of injuries to inflict the team. Joe Murphy and Frank Taylor, who were also team captains, and Sean Har- vey, a senior guard, received severe ankle injuries which limited their action tremendously. The team lost many close games early in the sea- son, but they never gave up. The team enjoyed a great trip to Georgia over Christmas break to play in the Armstrong State College Tournament. The Profs came in MMMHMH third over-all, and proudly repre- sented Glassboro State. This trip was definitely one of the highlights of the season. Last season the Glassboro State Basketball team was lacking a good front line. With the addition of Nor- man Wilson and Larry Perkins, the Prof ' s quickly solved this problem. Kevin Davis, Shawn Johnson, Shawn Norwood, and Kevin Kelly rounded out the team. The basketball team ended their season with a 11-14 record; 10-8 in the conference. The biggest win of the season was the final game against Jersey City. The Prof ' s whipped this first place team 92-90. If this game was any indication of what ' s to come next year, Glassboro should see a great season. Returning next year are Kevin Davis, Wilson, Perkins, Johnson, Norwood, and Kelly. 164 Men ' s Basketball Men ' s Basketball 165 WOMEN ' S BASKETBALL The Women ' s Basketball team had an exceptional season this year. The team was led by senior Tammy Steele who was setting all kinds of records. She set the record for most field goals in a season; free throws in a season; rebounds in a season; most points in a season; and most steals in a game. Steele ' s career total points were over 1,700, the most by any fe- male in GSC history. Steele was supported on the court by juniors Geri O ' Keefe and Kim Franchi, and sophomores Alice Knoll and Elena Tiberi. The high- light of the team ' s season was break- ing Rutgers-Newark ' s sixteen game winning streak. The Lady Prof ' s crushed their streak with a 92-87 win. The team took part in the Geor- gian Court Christmas Tournament, and came in second behind Stockton State. Steele and Knoll were both named to the All-Tournament Team. Congratulations ladies for a fine season! 166 Women ' s Basketball Women ' s Basketball 167 WRESTLING Head coach Jim Ingles and assis- tant Fred McColl led the G.S.C. Wrestling team this year along with co-captains Dan Dugan (190) and Jeff Hansen (167). Other members were: Scott Vetter (118), Tony De- Santis and Ken Harms (126), Chris Brockman (134). Dennis Horner and Bryan Barrett (142), Bill Cioffi (158), Jim Williamson (177), Harry Xenitelis, and heavyweight Brett Aretz. Injuries and illness plagued the squad this past season and many matches were forfeited. With the solid leadership of Dugan and Han- sen, the team was able to overcome these problems and ended the regu- lar season with a 12-9 record, much better than last year ' s 7-9 mark. The Prof ' s were very successful in the 1986 Upsala tournament. First place titles went to Dugan, Barrett, Cioffi, and Williamson, and a third place title went to Hansen. Dugan and Hansen have attributed their success to an active weight training program. The squad hopes to con- tinue to improve its record in the season to come. P 168 Wrestling Wrestling 169 GOLF The 1985 Glassboro Golf team fin- ished their season third in the New Jersey State Athletic Conference. The team was led by sophomore O.J. Juhl, who was named to the All Conference Second Team for the sec- ond time. Juhl, along with team- mate Ken Jones, finished in the top ten of the NJSAC ' s three tourna- ments. Other players who guided the Prof ' s to their third place stand- ing were Dan McQuilken, Fran Mu- holland, Mike Sorelle and Tim Carl- son. Coach Richard Wacker anxiously awaits the 1986 campaign as all members from the 1985 team will return for another season.
