Her Game Lomax Holds Conference Rushing Record By JIM ROWELL What a difference one yard makes. David Lomax, Western Carolina's aU conference fullback set a Carolinas Conference single-season record of 106.2 yards a game rushing against Presbyterian in the last game of his college career—by one yard. Lomax went into the game against Presbyterian's league- leading rushing defense with an average of 106.6 a game needing 102 yards to break the old Carolinas Conference record of 106.1 a game, set by Mike Cam- bell of Lenoir Rhyne in 1966. Lomax gained 103 yards to establish the new record at 106.2 yards per game. Ironically, it was at Presbyterian College in 1966 that Lomax first established himself as an outstanding college running back. Catamount head coach Dan Robinson tells itthis way. "David came to us from a single wing offense in high school and because of his single wing experience was a poor fullback running from a T-formation. He was accustomed to waiting for a hole to materialize and was therfore much too slow getting to the hole. Lomax showed little improvement during spring practice of his sophomore year and still was playing second string through preseason practice of that year. "Then we went down to Presbyterian for a controlled scrimmage. Our first string fullback was having a bad day and partly out of necessity we put Lomax in. During the next thirty minutes he had everyone that was there oohing and ahing at his running ability. "He seemed toblossonasour fullback all at once as he ran through and over everything PC put in front of him," Robinson said. Since that time, Lomax has been the bread and butter man for the Catamounts. Although he missed three games last vear due to injuries, Lomax Great criticism EXCiTeS, HSPSRISnllATEf.

This season he again rewrote the record as he pounded out 956 yards. He finished as Western Carolina's all time great rusher with 2,289 yards and as a leading candidate for back-of-the- year honors in the Carolinas Conference this season. Lomax is definately a team man. The Catamount co-captain said: "I had real fine blocking all year and without good blocking good running Is impossible." Robinson described Lomax as "the quiet, unassuming type who is definately Little All- American caliber. "Perhaps the biggest asset to Lomax's ability to move the football is the fact that he learned to hit the hole quickly, at the same time he retained his ability to run to daylight which he had from playing the single wing. "He's strong and his deception makes it hard for defenders to get a good shot at him," Robinson said. One-hundred and six seems to be a lucky number for the 5-10 - 190 pounder from Thom- asville, where he played football and basketball at East Davidson High School. He holds the school record for the school record for the longest punt return—106 yards. During his junior and senior years he was all-conference. He was All- Carolinas Conference last year for Western Carolina and played in the Shrine Bowl All Star game in Raleigh. In the casssroom, Lomax is a serious student. His major is business administration with a concentration in data processing. He's undecided as to what he will do when he graduates this summer.
