January 17, 1980/THE WESTERN CAROLINIAN/Page 17 WESTERN CAROLINIAN SPORTS Bleary-eyed Cats wander back into Cullowhee hills Coach Steve Cottrell and his bleary-eyed Catamount basketball team rolled back into Cullowhee in wee hours of Tuesday morning suffering from both a case of "bus lag" and chronic frustration as the UT-Chattanooga Mocasins gave the Cats their fourth straight conference loss and third on the road with an 85-71 Southern Conference victory over Western Carolina at MacClean Gym in Chattanooga. UT-Chattanooga was unbelievable in the opening ten minutes Monday night when it hit 82 percent of its shots and took a lead that The Cats were never able to overcome. Cottrell's Cats came back again as they have throughout the trek, but UT-C perserved its win with a four-corners offense. UT-C, using a deliberate but highly effective offense, pulled out to an 27-16 lead in the first ten minutes. Leading 50-35 at the half, the Mocs were able to hold off the Catamount charge that cut the lead to 8, 65-57, with 7:05 left in the game. From then on the Mocs kept Western at bay with nifty foul-shooting, canning 15 of their last 16 free throws to seal the victory.. The Mocs, who finished the game 30 of 45 from the floor and 24 of 30 from the foul line for 67 and 80 percents respectively, placed all five starters in double figures with guard Delta Brogden leading the group with 17 points. Edsel Brooks the other guard and forward Eric Dmith added 15 a piece with James Jones canning 13 and Randy Harris 12. The Cats were led by 20 points and 10 rebounds from freshman Kenny Trimier. Greg Dennis added 14 points with the point guard combination of Larry Caldwell and Kevin Young netting 11 and 10 points respectively. Western's record fell to 8-6 overall 2-4 in the league with Chattanooga improving to 8-6 overall, 3-2 in the Southern Conference. The three losses on the road were almost carbon copies of each other as in each case The Cats shoot poorly in the opening ten minutes while the opposition was shooting the lights out and taking big leads in the first half. Cottrell's team always came back with improved play in the second halves, but the lead was always too much to overcome. Against Georgia Tech, The Cats had two cold streaks that allowed the Yellow Jacket to take big leads. With 4:30 to play, lech held a 15 point lead, but Western came back to within_ four points in less than three minutes. The story was told in the shooting percentages as Tech hit 13 of 15 shots in the second half and totaled 54 percent for the'home as compared to The Cats 37 percent. Tech eventually won the game 70-60. Dennis led the Cats with 26 points in the game. The Citadel shot 61 percent from the floor in the first half to take a 16 point halftime lead. The Cats came back in the second half but could get no closer than seven points. Again, it was the stats that told the tale as The Citadel hit on 62 percent of its shots as compared to Western's 48 percent. The Citadel, after an 0-2 start in conferenoe play, have won their last two league games, including 85-73 win over The Cats on regional television last Saturday in Charleston. The Bulldogs have the second best overall record in the conference at 8-2. The Cats were on the road for six days visiting Atlanta, Charleston and Chattanooga, but their visits were nothing they will care to write home about, much less remember. Cullowhee and Reid Gymnasium will look real good for the next week as Western opens a four-game homestand this Wednesday evening against Bluefield College. A string of three consecutive conference home games will be played in Reid beginning Saturday when Marshall University visits. V.M.I, comes in Monday and The Citadel visits Wednesday. "We are looking forward to these four home games to, hopefully, get back in the groove," says Cottrell. "We don't plan any wholesale changes. We have just got to realize this is a very young basketball team and we can't expect them to perform like veterans." "It is frustrating," says Cottrell. "We will go into unexplainable cold streaks when we can't even hit a layup. Then we will play real hard defense only to have the other team hit five or six twenty footers in a row," he explains. Turn to Page 20, Please. Football signees continue to pour in to WCU Western Carolina's football staff continued to sign high school and junior college recruits at a record pace with the announcement of the the addition of two more defensive players. The latest signees, pushing this recruiting campaign total to 18. are Junior Jeffers. a linebacker from Western Guilford High in Greensboro, and Randy Piazza, a defensive nose guard from Taft Junior College in California. Jeffers, at 6-0,227, is the largest line backer ever signed bv WCU in Bob Waters twelve recruiting campaigns. He was a three-year starter in Western Guilford's outstanding football program and helped lead his team to a State 3-A Championship and two conference titles. He was named to the All-Guilford County and All-Triad twice and was Metro (Greensboro) area defensive player of the year in his junior season. Jeffers was heavily recruited by a long list of schools, including Wake Forest. An example of his athletic ability is the fact that he finished second in the state last spring in the discus. Piazza was recruited by several west coast schools, including San Diego State and San Jose State, but opted for an opportunity to play near his home in Inman, S.C. The 6-1, 220 pounder was a standout at defensive tackle on Taft College's state junior college championship team last fall. He was a all-state selection in 1977 while playing at Boiling Springs (S.C.) High. Jeffers was recruited and signed by Don Dalton, the Cats offensive backfield coach. "Junior is a picture college linebacker. He has the size, strength aggressiveness and quickness to play with the best in the Southern Conference. We expect him to help us in the very near future," he said. Piazza was signed by graduate assistant coach Ty Smith. "Randy gives us more size than we have had at nose in several years, plus he is very strong and mobile. He also has a lot of football savvy and reads blocks extremely well," said Smith. Cats take Wed. nite games The WCU men's basketball team trounced Bluefield College last night, 91-59. The Cat's attack was led by Greg Dennis, who scored 33 points. Denny Trimier put in 13 points and had 14 rebounds. The Cats controlled the game, leading 43-24 at the half. Bluefield committed 30 turnovers in the game and were out rebounded by Western 39-26. WCU upped their record to 15 and 9, while Bluefield dropped to 7-10. The Lady Cats demolished UNC-Asheville 91-59 in action last night at Reid Gym. The 91 points scored in the game were an all time high for the Lady Cats. Bess *"nsp led the Ladv Cats with 24 points, while Cindy Curtis scored 22. The Lady Cats are now 9-5 overall. Ladies leap after humiliation Coach Judy Murray's Western Carolina women's basketball team rebounded from one of their most disappointing losses of the season, a 76-46 debacle at The College of Charleston, with an 82-59 rout of visiting Gardner-Webb Monday night. The Lady Cats, using a balanced scoring attack >vith 4 double figure scorers, broke open a tight game late in the first half with a flurry of points generated off their fast break to pull out to a 43-32 halftime lead. In the second half the Lady Bulldogs were able to get no closer than 13 points, at 65-52, before Western stretched the final margin out to 23 points, the largest margin, several times in the closing minutes. Western was led by what may be the heart of the Lady Cats for seasons to come, with freshman Cindy Curtis coming off the bench to score 23 points. The 5-7 native of Hayesville, NC, hit on 11 of 19 from the floor, grabbed 9 rebounds and added 6 assists to her most productive game as a collegian. Another freshman, Fairfax, VA native Dissy Thompson added 14 points with 7 rebounds and 7 assists while steady Cindi Saltz, the team's leading scorer with a 16.6 per game average, tossed in 21 points. It was the fifth game in a row that Saltz has been the leading scoring for Western and during that span she has averaged 20.6 points a game. Glenda Harris, another freshman, contributed 12 points and 10 rebounds as Western hit on 50 percent of their field goals (38 of 76) and outrebounded G-W 54 to 40 in recording their eighth win in 13 games. Gardner-Webb fell to 5-3 with the loss. Carolyn Dewberry led their effort with 18 points and 10 rebounds before fouling out. Over the weekend the Lady Cats split two games in Charleston, SC whipping Baptist College 91-58 behind 19 points from Saltz and five other double digit scorers. Western took an early lead and never let up. shooting a torrid 52 percent from the floor. Joining Saltz with ten or more points was Thompson with 12, 13 from Harris, 10 from Sandra Julian and Ginger Eichhorn and 14 from Curtis. Rhonda Fox added 13 rebounds in the rout. Saturday night was a different story as the Lady Cats suffered their worst loss of the season against the College of Charleston. Western shot just 27 percent from the floor and committed 38 turnovers in the loss. Saltz was the only offense for WCU in that game scoring 24 points, 12 of those from the foul line. The Lady Cats play next Wednesday (Jan. 16) at 5 p.m. in Reid Gym against UNC-Asheville. This weekend they travel to Richmond, Kentucky for a contest with powerful Eastern Kentucky University.
