OAC better minus five
The Ohio Athletic Conference, offering fine small college athletics competition for decades, is in danger of losing five of its member schools. Ohio Wesleyan, Denison, Kenyon, Oberlin, and Wooster are contemplating pulling out of the OAC to form a league of their own. Schools from Indiana, Michigan, and Pennsylvania are also considering joining the bandwagon.
If this happens, and at this point it looks as though it will, it is going to reduce the size of the OAC to nine teams from their original 14.
A closer look finds the five schools saying the OAC is not as ' academically oriented as the schools would like it to be. They also say the athletic programs of the schools do not mesh with the conference.
This could be true The five teams are not, and have not been major factors in the conference's major sports in some years. Two of the schools, Kenyon and Oberlin, annually refrain from competing for the football crown (as if they would have a chance anyway)
The five schools are competitive in some sports not offered at many of the other conference schools. For example, Ohio Wesleyan supports a lacrosse team that has no competition in the conference.
The OAC might see the move as a blessing in disguise. A 14-
member conference is a big number to work with as far as athletic conferences. As it is now football season, any team can't come

"We were only a few plays away from playing in the OAC championship," quarterback Brook McDonald said in summing up the 1982 football season.
The Otterbein Cardinals faced the challenge of rebuilding a defensive unit graduating seven starters in 1981 and maintaining a well-balanced offensive attack The Cards were suecessful as they finished with another winning season at 5 and 4, and third place in the tough O.A.C. Blue Divis10n.
game nine," McDonald said. ''They did a fine job."
Offensively, Otterbein came into the year with a great deal of seasoned veterans. "Early season injuries on offense really curtailed our potency," Seils said. "We found a few things we could do well. and some we couldn't. We didn't have the explosive offense that we should've had, but our passing game did improve a great deal this year," said Seils.
"Going into the year we knew we had to rebuild our defense," head coach Rich Seils said. "With only one experienced starter on defense, we suffered a lot of growing pains It took several games but we finally found the best 11 players to put on the field." Seils added.
Otterbein's young defense improved greatly as they helped to win 3 out of their last 4 games. "Our defcnse improved from game one to
Overall, the Cards did have their high and low points of the season.
"The Capital victory was a tremendous high point for us," Seils said. The Cards rebounded with three late scores to beat a tough Capital squad 30-26. "We never gave up in that game," Seils added.
"Our low point was the Ohio Northern loss." The Cardinals lost a hard•fought 14-10 battle to the Ohio Northern Polar Bears, a game they could have easily won with any kind of break. Northern later upset Wittenber to win the Blue Division Conference.

The Lady Cards then competed in the loser's bracket where they defeated Ohio Wesleyan before being eliminated from the tournament by Capital.
Otterbein faced seventh seed Muskingum to begin the tournament. This marked the third time these two teams faced each other this year, and for the third time Muskingum won. Otterbein instituted a new defensive alignment for this contest. It proved to be ineffective against the much stronger Muskingum team. "The new defense worked to a degree, especially in game two," said head coach Terri Hazucha. The Lady Cards fell behind
early by a score of 8-1. Muskingum went on to win 15-5. ln game two, Otterbein played much better, but still had trouble defensively as Muskingum won 15-11.
In the opening round of the loser's bracket, Otterbein faced Ohio Wesleyan. This marked the fourth time these two teams faced each other this year and also the fourth Otterbein victory.
Otterbein won 16-14, 15-11. The

Game two belonged to Otterbein even though O.W .'s \ate comeback try was a little too late. The Lady Cards won 15-11 to advance in the tournament.
Otterbein's season came to an end in the third match against Capital. It was an evenly matched contest between the 9th and 10th ranked teams. Capital won the match 15-13, 15-10. Game one was tied five times during the last six transactions before Otterbein committed a mental mistake, which lost the game. "We committed two reception errors which gave Capital the game," said Hazucha, "It's a fundamental aspect of the game we work on thoroughly at practice. It's usually one of our strong points."

The second game was tied throughout most of the contest before Capital's middle-hitter began to dominate the action. "Her play sparked Ca pitar adrenalin," said Hazucha.
Ohio Northern won the tournament, beating out Baldwin Wallace to receive a bid to participate in the N .C.A.A. regionals.
Outward Bound is more than a trip of high adventure. It's discovering yourself. Learning that you 're better than you think you are. And finding out how to work with others.
Come join us on a 3-week trip of excitement and self-challenge. You may come back a better you.
The 1982 season is now historv for the Lady Cards, but despite the record there were some bright spots during the season. ''I was pleased with our progress all season," said Hazucha. "This year's schedule was the toughest in years, but we were very competitive. With the loss of two seniors, Karen Graf and Vicki Hartsough. Hazucha must find two able replacements. "We will miss Karen and Vicki," Hazucha said. "but l feel some of our younger players have the capability to take their place."
Hazucha was asked what she considered to be the highlight of the 1982 season. Her decision was a toss-up between the victory over arch-rival Rio Grande or the victory over Defiance. Hazucha decided, "Until this season. we had not beaten Defiance in the last three years. but beating Rio Grande was a big thrill for us."
