Page 22/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/October 18, 1979 Surles on sports SI by Steve Surles The brawl that ensued after WCU's 1-0 loas to Tusculura College Monday night was directly caused by the poor officiating In the game. The refs allowed too much rough stuff from both sides...the biggest problem was their inconsistency in making all those tripping calls, etc. that permeated the contest. The refs simply lost control of the game. One of these days the officiating will catch up with the caliber of play...maybe. Our crowd was not much help either with their "negative" rooting for the Cats. Monday's scrimmage was very interesting. The nicest thing about it was the good turnout of students to watch the first practice of Coach Steve Cottrell's third season. The Cats had some bright spots as Greg Dennis canned 28 points and hit eight field goals in a row In one stretch, and freshman Kenny Trimier looked very smooth. Actually, the entire squad looked good as it was the first time they had played together as a full team this year. The basketball Cats figure to be one of the youngest teams in the nation. At times this season they may have 3 freshman and 2 sophomores on the court or some combination like that...that youth may cause the won-lost record to suffer at times, but give this club another season and the Cats could be a conference title contender. Saturday's 1 p.m. game with Wofford should be an interesting NAIA-NCAA confrontation. Insiders say Wofford has been looking ahead for this game for a couple of weeks. The Terriers definitely will be ready to play. Get this—the ACC, long time known as a basketball conference, currently leads the nation in won-lost percentage against teams outside the conference. Their overall football record Is now 20-4-1 [21-7-2 If Georgia Tech is included.] The Southeastern Conference is 13-15-1, and only 2-3 against the ACC. The Citadel's 27-14 romp over Vanderbilt a couple of weeks ago gave the Southern Conference a 1-0 record over the Mightly SEC. The Cats rank second in the nation In pass defense. Right now the defense Is led by four 5'9 defensive backs, Willie Carpenter, Lee McCall, Thomas Gunn, and Stan Davis and is giving up only 68.8 yards a game passing yards. Maryland ranks first, with a 62.0 yards a game average. When you consider the number of serious injuries the Catamount defensive unit has had this season, their overall performance has been nothing short of remarkable. The Cats lost linebacker Randy Howard and defensive back Willie Wells for the year early in the season, and have had many less severe aches and pains throughout the season. They also rank second in the Southern Conference in total team defense with 272 yards a game. Season ticket basketball tickets should be at a premium this season. Athletic department officials say to be sure and get one as soon as you can...talk about a bargain, too. For 14 home games a season ticket is just 35 bucks...that's cheaper than the movies and it's top flight college basketball. Also, five or six of those games will be men-women double headers...you can't beat that for your entertainment dollar. Women's tennis The women's tennis team completed their fall schedule in the Mars Hill Tournament on the Mars Hill campus. The Lady Cats finished fifth in the seven team event. Mars Hill won the tournament, a combination of round robin and best of three play, with Anderson College, Presbyterian and Lenoir-Rhyne finishing ahead of WCU with Lees McRae and UNC-Asheville placing sixth and seventh. The Lady Cats ended the fall schedule with a 1-3 mark. Shirley runs 3rd Freshman Sam Shirley ran his best collegiate time ever for a five-mile run with a 25:45 time, but came up in third place as West Georgia College defeated the Catamounts 22-33 in a double dual meet in Carrolton, Georgia, Saturday. ««i'*i Kent St. James led West Georgia with a 25:14 time on his home course as the Cats lost only their second meet of the season. In the other half of competition the Cats blanked the University of Alabama-Birmingham 15-50 to move to 7-2 overall. Despite the loss to West Georgia, four Western runners, other than Shirley, bettered their best collegiate time. Tom Mahon's 26:38, Jeff Simpson's 26:34, the 26:32 time by senior Jeff Cloninger and the 26:28 by Dennis Francis all marked personal highs. SC race in turmoil Sportsmanship award to be announced By STEVE SURLES Sports Editor The first Southern Conference Sportsmanship Award will be awarded at the end of the 1979-80 academic year the conference office announced this week. The award will go to the school with the highest overall rating based on voting from the head coaches and athletic directors of each school. Ratings will be based on the actions of coaches, players, and spectators plus the general courtesies and considerations extended by the host school to visiting teams prior, during and after the games. The award, officially called the Colonel D.S.McAlis- tcr Sportsmanship Award, is being given a top priority by the league office as a serious promotion for improved sportsmanship and crowd control in NCAA athletics. Western Carolina Athletic Director and Head Football Coach Bob Waters says that the award means a great deal to WCU. "We can win this for Western. I feel it is very important to be recognized for the supporting of the teams in a sportsmanlike manner and with enthusiasm. It is important for us to be recognized as being a forerunner in good sportsmanship also. More than any other thing, this is a chance for the students to make a real contribution to the school and athletic program." Men's tennis The men's tennis team lost two matches this weekend as they fell to Carson-Newman College 8-1 Friday and Clemson University 9-0 Saturday. Keith Freeman won the only game for the Catamounts in the number three singles against Carson-Newman. The two losses dropped the Cats to 2-2 on the season with the final action of the fall schedule coming October 28 with the Alumni Match Homecoming weekend. The Southern Conference football race has been unpredictable from the opening week of the season and last weekend provided the most odds—defying action to date. UT-Chattanooga, which appeared to be on its way to a third consecutive title with a 3-0 conference record, was side-tracked by East Tennessee State's fired-up Buccaneers in the Mini Dome last Saturday by a staggering 35-0 count. VMI, which was picked to finish sixth in the pre-season poll, upset Appalachian State, 27-22, and moved into a first place tie with The Citadel, the team pegged for fifth place. In the other conference game played last Saturday, Furman, a co-favorite with UTC to win the title this season, won its first game of the campaign as the Paladins beset Marshall (0-3 and 1-5). This weekend, the stage is set for the possible conference championship game in Lexington, Virginia when VMI and The Citadel, both 2-0 in the league, meet to make war. Furman hosts Appalachian State in the other conference game.
