Here she is in a split. (Staff photo by Jim Kotila) Lady Gymnasts Hold 5-0 Record In 1st Season of Competition Gymnastics, the beautiful sport is coming to Cullowhee, and Western's own tough lit- tie Lady Cats, sporting a perfect 5-0 record in their first season of varsity competition, are pining for a state crown. The diminutive squad features Susan Bullock , Pam Clark and Cindy Nybro, freshmen from Asheville, Lisa Fine senior of Newport News, Va. and Marie Maffei, junior of Bloomfteld, N.J. Alternates are Susan Morse, junior of Saluda, Karen Smith, freshman of Tryon and Andrea Weaver, also a freshman from Greensboro. The spritely gymnasts opened their season last Jan. in Reid Gym with a meet against Ap- Track Improves With Outdoor Meet Nearing With less than two weeks re- maining before its first outdoor meet, Western Carolina, University's track and field team continues to improve on its times and distances indoor. The WCU thinclads turned in their best overall performance of the indoor season last Friday night at the Tennessee In= tercollegiate Meet in Knoxville as several Catamounts gained the spotlight. Jerry Gaines turned in an outstanding individual perfor- mance as he jumped to a first and second place finish. His leap of 49'7 3/4" won the triple jump event and a 23'7" effort in the long jump was good enough for second place. Coach Paul Jones feels Gaines is capable of adding at least three feet in both the triple and long jump" during the outdoor sea« son. Western's mile relay team knocked almost four seconds off its previous best time with a 3s28.8 clocking. The new mark was established by Craig Goodspeed, Clarence Thomas, CONTINUED Page 12 ... . Mi palachian. The Mountaineers score of 51,51 was easily over powered by Western's all season high of 66.05. The team next travelled to Rock Hill, South Carolina for a Tri Meet. Wlnthrop's fledgling team managed 25.8 points while the powerful University of North Carolina team racked up 52.4 points only to be bested by Western's 55.9 pts. Furman University next hosted the Cats and was promptly felled - 48.026 to 50.789. In the final meet of the scheduled season, the University of South Carolina ventured to Cullowhee. Although lacking the usual power and excitement exuded by the dynamic catamount squad the meet was an easy- win for Western 49,71 to 55.675. I-ooking toward the state championships Saturday, Coach Sue Fields had this to say, "I've been very proud of my girls; they've worked very hard and have made exciting progress. Admittedly, an undefeated season is a gift to any coach. But winning, however, is not everything. It has been most important to us to learn to progress, to do our best, and winning, sadly does not necessarily mean any of these things. What I'd like to see this weekend would be for the girls to pull out all the stops and show Western the beautiful dynamic team they are, which for this squad would only incident- ly be a state championship performance. Lady Cats Semifinalists day event. In first round action the Lady Cats trounced UNC- Chapel Hill 55-41 before dropping a tough 47-40 contest to eventual touney champions East Carolina. Jolly Jones and Karen Watson led the WCU scoring attack a- gainst UNC with 16 andl4points, respectively. In the second round loss to ECU, Jolly again poured in 16, while Vicki Hunter added 13 and Frances Mitchell chipped in 10, to give Western a 13 point halftime lead. The Buccaneers rallied back, however, and took the lead for good with two minutes remaining. Commenting on the 11-7 season, Coach Betty Westmoreland noted, "We had a very young squad (only one senior), yet we managed to place in the top 4 teams out of the 13 in the playoffs. The record wasn't bad, but it was no comparison to the past teams which have gone on to the national playoffs." East Carolina and High Point took the top two spots in the tourney and will thus be advancing to the regionals at Lexington, Kentucky. The N.C. Tournament boasted a talented field as the WCU girls faced such noted players as Marcia Mann of UNC, who will be going to the World Game tryouts this summer. The World ....
