To the Editors of the Crimson:
I am not the most ardent of sports fans, but when my roommate's lacrosse learn defeated Northwestern to vie for the NCAA semi-finals at Amberst. I was anxious to read the write-up Quickly thumbing through the sports section of-Thursday's Crimson. I was surprised to find that instead of top-of-the-page glory, the laxwomen were relegated to a small, inconspicuous column beneath a great picture of men's lacrosse. Tim Pendergast and a lengthy tale of co-captain comments. "I'd Rather Be in Philadelphia" would rather be given due respect and placement. Too often women's sports must take the backseat when it comes to media coverage. Granted Tim Pendergast has nice legs, but Francesca DenHartog has better states. The women are seeded fifth in the nation while the men's lacrosse is not even breaking even. Don't tell me that women's sports are "just not spectator sports" when the spectators can hardly find the publicity that instills such fan fervor! Inga L. Parsons '85
