Quietly. That's how Lisa Stumpf

If that all sounds just a little to good to
be true, then consider Lisa's high school
athletic career. While maintaining an
impressive 3.96 grade point average at
Ventura High School, she lettered three
years in basketball, led the team to the
quarterfinals of the CIF playoffs and was
named Sportswoman of the Year in her
senior season. Not bad for someone who
took up basketball in her sophomore year

Stumpf contnbuted a team-high 14 points

registered a team-high three blocked
shots earlier this season against Cal Poly
San Luis Obispo.

One person who has taken notice of
Lisa's accomplishments is Bulldog coach
Bob Spencer
"She's our unsung hero," exclaims
Spencer. "It's that simple. She's unselfish,
and is willing to play any position we ask
her to. She's also one of the hardest
workers I've ever coached."
As she does most things, Lisa lakes the
praise from her coach in stride.
"I just try to do my job whether or not I
get   any   glory  or   recognition,"   says
of high school as "something to do."
Few fans know that Stumpf could just
as easily be playing volleyball for the Bull¬
dogs, or even Softball. Along with all her
other accolades at Ventura High, Lisa
was a two-time volleyball MVP, lettering
in the sport three years as well as two year
in softball.
Oddly enough, Lisa considers herself
more skilled in volleyball. She even
received an offer to play for a school in
Kansas, but spumed the offer so she
could stay closer to her family. Enter

'Dog wrestling win
PALO ALTO — For the CSUF
wrestling team, victories over Stanford
University have come pretty routinely
over the years. But Tuesday night's 30-12
Bulldog win over the Cardinal had a
different twist.
Fresno's sophomore heavyweight Tom
Neville, previously untested as a
collegiate wrestler, pinned Ed Katz in 2:20
in his first match since high school.
Neville's win, the last match of the night,
helped the Bulldogs to their 14th win in 15
tries against Stanford. Fresno now has an
11-7 mark in dual matches this year.
Just recently, Neville, a starting
offensive guard on the Bulldog football
team, contacted CSUF wrestling coach
Dennis DeLiddo and inquired about a
position on the wrestling team, according
to John Loiacono of the university sports
Loiacono said DeLiddo agreed to give
Neville a match against Stanford,
providing the Bulldogs were ahead of the
Cardinal going into the heavyweight
confrontation.
The win and the pin were significant lor
Neville and the 'Dogs in that Katz placed
third in the Pacific-10 Conference, second
in the All-California and fourth in the Biola
tournaments last year.
Neville, 6-foot-5 and 271 pounds, was a
two-time high school state wrestling
champion in Alaska. He transferred to
CSUF this year from Weber State, where
he also played football.
Fresno's Abric Liley, at 120 pounds,
helped the Bulldogs start off on the right
foot with a 10-6 decision over freshman
Burt Fukunago and was followed by Bull¬
dog 128-pounder Pete Rangel's 7-4
decision of Cardinal Bill George.
John Vega (136 pounds) gave the 'Dogs
another decision with a 20-5 win over
freshman Jeff Bradley before Stanford's
Scott Wiggin (144) decisioned Tresno's
Todd Guirlani 7-4.
Stanford's only other victories came
from 152-pounder Pete Rogers, who
outpointed Dave Ismay 10-8, and senior

Trejo appears to be the biggest catch

in California last season and was a second
team all-state pick. Mitchell was also a
second team player^while Martin was
named to the third ream.

Stumpf is a physical education major,
and she hopes to someday use her degree
to teach Basketball and other sports.
Academics are very important to.Lisa
at CSUF, even ahead of basketball on her
list of priorities, as her 3.5 grade point
average can attest to. She jokes that she
is the only player she knows who brings a
typewriter along on road trips.
"Lisa is a very conscientious student-
athlete," says Spencer, pausing before

Peacock to
compete in
Millrose
high jump
Tyke Peacock, the nation's sixth-
best high jumper and a recent
transfer to CSUF, was scheduled to
leave this morning to compete in the
Millrose Games in New York.
Peacock, also ranked second
among outdoor competitors, tn
ferred to Fresno from the Univesity
of Kansas. He will be forced to sit out
the 1983 season, according to NCAA
rules, and will be a senior for the 1984
Peacock holds a personal high
jump best of 7-feet-6!4-inches. Only
Dwight Stones is ahead of Peacock in
the Track and Field News ratings.
Peacock, who stands 6-1 and
weighs 180 pounds, was a former
basketball and track star at Modesto
Junior College. He was an alls
performer in both sports. He played
both at Kansas.
One of the Solid bets for a good
showing at the Millrose Games,
Peacock was the top-rated \
jumper in the country last year. He
was the only competitor to defeat
Canadian Milton Ottey during the
outdoor season.
Peacock's jump of 7-6%. a height
he has hit twice, is just an inch and a
half off Dietmar Mogenberg's world
mark of-7-feet-8.
Peacock will compete in Bulldog
track andfieiaeverits"ffiis season,but'"'
his ineligibility will not allow his marks
to count for CSUF. He win compete
with the Fresno State Track Club.
"If you work hard, anything can
happen," says Stumpf of the upset victory
The same line of thinking can also apply
to fighting back after an injury, as Stumpf
was made painfully aware of last year. In
October, Lisa tore some cartilage in her
knee, a painful injury that required
surgery. After an extreme amount of
work, a Stumpf trademark, Lisa says she
now feels no affects of the injury.
"Lisa came back from that injury
quicker than anyone I've ever seen,"
marvels Spencer.
The hard work ethic pays off in great
dividends for Lisa and the Bulldogs on the
court, but Lisa can more aptly describe
her style of play in one word, "aggres¬
sive," says Lisa. "As a result, \ always
seem to get in trouble."
When looking back on an enjoyable
four years at CSUF, a' quick smile warms
up Lisa's otherwise stern expression.
"I've seen this program grow, and it
really feels good to have helped establish
that."
