Santa Barbara put on probation
SANTA ANA - The University of
California at Santa Barbara basket¬
ball program has been placed on a
maximum of two years and a min¬
imum of one year of probation with
sanctions by the Pacific Coast
Athletic Association for violations of
recruiting and extra benefit rules of
the PCAA and NCAA effectfve
December 1960, It was announced
last week by PCAA Commissioner
Lewis A. Oyer.
Oyer also revealed that due to the
total and dedicated cooperation of
Vice Chancellor Dr. Edward Birch,
Faculty Athletic Representative
Dr. Michael Bowers, Director of
Athletics Kenneth Droscher, Head
Basketball Coach Edward DeLecy.
and the members of the UCSB
basketball team during the entire
review of the UCSB case, the
University may appeal to the PCAA
Compliance Committee for instlt-
wei.
In announcing the sanctions,
Oyer listed the following penalties:
UCSB Is placed on a maximum of
two years erf probation; it is to forfeit
all of its wins for the 1978-79 and
1979-60 seasons for the use of
Ineligible players; UCSB is not
eligible for the Conference basket¬
ball championship, the Conference
post-season tournament, nor is the
institution eligible to share in PCAA
basketball-generated revenue in
1981 and possibly 1962.
Oyer also stated UCSB Head
Basketball Coach Ed DeLecy is
being publically censured for the
violations of PCAA and NCAA rules.
It Is the feeling of the PCAA Comp¬
liance Committee that DeLecy is to
be held responsible for the actions
and conduct of the UCSB basketball
program, consequently the public
censure.
Because the violations included
the NCAA three contact rule,
improper entertainment of parents
and friends of several prospective
student-athletes, illegal trans¬
portation of a recruit, the receiving
of small amounts of money In the
form of loans and the Improper use
of University telephones, the Uni¬
versity declared certain student-
athletes Institutionally ineligible.
Subsequently, UCSB appealed to
the NCAA Committee of Eligibility
Appeals. The NCAA Committee
made Its ruling following a con¬
ference call with all parties Involved.
As a result of the appeal process,
York Cross, Calvin Cooper, and Paul
Johnson will forfeit their eligibility
for any post-season play while a,
student-athlete .at   UCSB.      This
penalty was applied for violations
that occured during the recruiting
period prior to their enrolling at
UCSB.
„ In addition, Cross will miss the
first four regula season games of the
1960 season while Cooper and
Johnson must sit out the first two
games of 1960. These penalties are
for violations of the extra benefit
rule after enrollment at UCSB.
Over concluded by stating that
the PCAA Compliance Committee
also ruled that all of UCSB's PCAA
Conference games during Its pro¬
bation period are to count towards
determining the Conference basket¬
ball championship and will be used
to determine the seeding for the
Conference's post-season tour¬
nament. The winner of the tour¬
nament will be the PCAA's rep¬
resentative In the NCAA Champion¬
ship Tournament.
Bulldog spikers sweep Cal, USF
By Tony BruneUi
CSUF volleyball coach Lellani Over-
street was so pleased with the perform¬
ance of floor captain Sandi Piearcy
this past week, she nominated her for
the San Joaquin Valley University
Athlete of the Week.
The spor-wrlters who choose the
weekly award apparently felt the same
way, and Piearcy was honored yesterday
Piearcy's performance helped cap a
three-match sweep, including two
conference matches.
Overstreet is hoping Piearcy's talent
can reach top form again tonight as
she takes her Bulldogs to Stockton to
face the number one ranked team in the
country,    the    University    of    Pacific
Coach Terry Liskevysch's Tigers are
the defending Northern California
Athletic Conference champions. The
Tigers have a strong team, paced by
three all-American players.
J ay no Gibson, a 6-1 junior; Nancy
Lancaster, a 5-7 senior; and Patty Berg,
a 5-11 senior, an the players that
Liskevysch is counting on to help the
Tigers repeat as NorCal champs.
UOP had an impressive 12-0 confer¬
ence record last year and was 40-11
overall in 1979.
Currently, CSUF is 2-0 in conference
play and Is hoping to improve on that
record wtth an upset win over UOP.
If Overstreet's Bulldogs can play as
well against UOP as they played against
Cal Pory-San Luis Obispo last Wed¬
nesday, the Tigers may find themselves
as the missing ull of the Bulldogs.
Fresno lost to Cal Poly for the third
time this season 4-15, U-13,15-10,5-15,
11-15 last weak,   But Overstreet found

times to get that elusive 13th victory,
and three times they have gone down in
defeat. To make matters worse, those
three losses were PCAA affairs.
The first two tries were defeats at the
hands of two powerful dubs In UC Santa
Barbara and UC Irvine.
The third loss was a tough one for
Fresno to swallow. Friday afternoon in
Long Beach. CSUF dropped an 8-6 heart-
breaker to the 49ers.
The Bulldogs were down 7-3 at the
start of the fourth period, and nearly
came back to win it. But their three goals
in the quarter were too little, too late.
'We played a good game, without the
unforced errors we had In our last two
games,* coach Don Laster said, adding
with a laugh, 'Hell, they're a good
eight goals to LBS, a team that scored a
whopping 14 last season against the
Bulldogs. CSUF's Ted Young had a good
game at goalie with seven saves.
It was on offense where the Bulldogs
had their hands tied Scoring continues to
be a problem for Fresno. J Im Turner was
able to dent the Long Beach net for two
goals, but for all intents and purposes,
that was it. Randy Biglionl, Ron Meyer-
Hagen, speedy Ronald Hersen, and
Dave Kelly each added a goal.
'We've been having trouble putting
the ball In the cage,' Laster said.
The game was not without Its contro¬
versies. Early In the opening period, the
49ers scored on a ball that, according to
Laster, did not go all the way into the
cage.
The loss to Long Beach dips the Bull¬
dog Overall record to 12-4, and 1-3 in
PCAA activity. Laster is still looking for
a fairly strong fourth place finish In the
and Pepperdine as the teams that will
provide the largest road blocks for
CSUF, which still has Pepperdine yet to
play. With but three conference contests
remaining, the Bulldogs are looking at a
4-3 record at best.
'We would have to upset one of the
top four teams to in the top bracket,'
Laster said. The only team in that brack¬
et, which includes Long Beach, left for
the Bulldogs is mighty Pepperdine.
CSUF will get a chance to regroup Sat¬
urday when the Bulldogs host the UC
Davis Aggies. Two games, rather than
the scheduled one, will be played. The
first on will be a J V game, getting under¬
way at noon. The varsity game will
follow.
The games will be good because it
will make sure the other players (those
not on the varsity team) get some ac¬
tion,* Laster said. He went to say that
Davis usually carries a large team, as
does Fresno, making the doubleheader
good for both schools.
Laster describes the Aggies as a good
team that can give anybody a good
game.
'They've got an awful lot of speed,"
Laster continued. 'We can beat them if
we put it all together, and score some
goals."
He sees UC Santa Barbara, UC Irvine,

has improved so much from last year."
Janee Sih/a was outstanding in the
backcourt for CSUF, along with Piearcy,
Tina Palepale, Becky Koch and Kim
Eisenhart.
On Friday, Fresno opened NorCal
play against UC Berkeley. Overstreet
noted that everyone in the conference
thought that Fresno's win was an upset,
"but I thought we should have beaten
them, so I don't think it was an upset."
CSUF finished off the Golden Bears
from Cal In four games, 11-15, 15-7,
15-6,15-10.
Overstreet could not give Piearcy
enough praise. "Sandi absolutely was
phenominal. She had 17 kills out of 31
The way Cal blocks, that is
Saturday, Overstreet found her
Bulldogs fadng a University of San
Francisco team that had finished at the
bottom of the conference last year with
an 0-12 mark.
And things have not looked very
bright for the Bay Area dub this year,
either.
CSUF defeated the USF Dons 15-2,
15-11, 15-10 In a match Overstreet
termed "not that exciting."
The veteran Bulldog coach used a
lot of substitutes to build some ex¬
perience for the players who do not
receive much playing time.
After tonight's match in Stockton and
Friday's contest In  Santa Clara, the
awaited match at Seiland Arena against
the Japanese University All-Stars next
Monday evening.
