Sports WCU's defensive line attempts to stop a Pirate drive in last Saturday's action against East Carolina. Photo by Robert Lahser Volleyball: Winningest WCU Team By Monica Henson Staff Writer The winningest team on the WCU campus is the Lady Cats volleyball team, which boasts a 27-5 record, including the James Madison Tournament championship. This year's edition of Lady Cats volleyball, coached by head coach Betty Peele and assistant coach Trish Howell, is the youngest ever to take the court at Breese Gymnasium. The team so far has compiled the best record yet. owing to consistency of performance, competitive drive, and super team effort. The Lady Cats are held by captains Judy Green and Ginger Eichhorn. who are among the starting six. Says Coach Peele, "Even though we have six positions filled at the beginning of the game, we have two defensive specialists who see enough action that we consider them starters also." The first six starters include sophomore spiker Ginger Eichhorn, freshman setter Judy Green, and freshmen spikers Janice Burke. Vickie Warner, Anna Wike, and Saundra Fleming. Defensive specialists Cindy Green (sophomore), and Robyn Keeler (freshman) are also classified as starters. The Lady Cats do not put six players on the court-they field a team. According to coaches Peele and Howell, all twelve players give a super team effort. They are all supportive of each other, whether they are starters or not. The supporting cast consists of juniors Norma Gibson and Lola Drake, sophomore Sherry Kasch, and freshman Teretha Coe. Coach Peele remarked. "Gibson is a defensive specialist, while Drake. Kasch. and Coe are 'full-court' all-around players. Sherry Kasch did a super job during the James Madison Tournament, coming through when wc needed her." Coach Peele commented on her tenacious team. "Even though these kids are extremely young, they just won't quit." She cited the comeback win over Guilford College as an example of the Lady Cats' drive to win: "We were playing a match against Guilford, the best three out of five games. We lost the first two games and were behind in the third, but the girls rallied and came back to win the third, fourth, and fifth game. taking the match." , Assistant Coach Howell mentioned the support of the fans, not only during matches but off-court as well. "The fans have really been great, telling the girls during classes what a good job they're doing, and asking about future matches." The Lady Cats will be entering the state tournament November 13. and both coaches feel they have an excellent chance to emerge as the number one team in North Carolina. I Photo by Mark Haskett Win-Hungry Teams Meet WCU vs. Marshall Western Carolina and Marshall, a pan ot w in hungry football teams, will med Saturday afternoon at Whit mi. i- Stadium and Ihe game should be a spectator's deHight as both teams are expected lo pull ool all the slops in the Southern Conference game. Kickoff is scheduled for 1:00 p.m, and will highlight Western Carolina's week long homecoming celebration and the game will in- the Catamounts last home appearance ol the season. Western 2-5 overall and I 2 m Southern Conference play, cniers the contest looking to break ■ two-game losing streak and keep its hopes of I lillh consecutive winning season alive. A frustrated Marshall leam will trawl trom Huntington. West Virginia in search of its first ever Southern Conference win. The Thundering Herd. 2-4 overall and 0 3 in the Conference, brings a four game losing streak into the game. "I'm not sure what will happen when two teams as desperate as Western Carolina and Marshall meet." savs Hob Waters. Western's veteran head coach. "Both of us cann si ill salvage something out of this season, but a win is a must this week." he adds. Western is coming off a 24-14 loss al fast Carolina that left the Catamounts ranks thinned by the tirsl serious rash ot injuries this season. The Cats will have to play without starling linebacker Charlie Hughes (knee injury) on defense and probably two offensive backfield regulars, tailback Anthony James, the team's leading rusher who is suffering trom rib injuries, and fullback Mark Womack. out with a neck injury. In addition, tailback Leonard Williams is still slowed by an ankle injury and should he not be ready to play. Waters will have to call upon Freshman Keith Mcintosh who has only three carries to his credit this season. Should James and Williams be confined to the sidelines Saturday, the Catamounts' sophomore quarterbacks. Ronnie Mixon and David Mashburn, could develop sore arms. Mixon threw for all of the Cats 154 aerial yards against East Carolina and has compiled 721 yards for the season. Mashburn has 899 yards thorough the air. including six touchdown passes. Western's all-star receiver Gerald Harp will be attempting to bounce back from a sub-par two catches for 22 yards performance at East Carolina. He needs only 238 yards and 30 catches to move up to second place on major college's all-time pass reception yardage and reception lists, respectively. Marshall started the season with impressive wins over Morehead State (35-8) and Kent State (17-7). but has scored only one touchdown in consecutive losses to VMI. Appalachian State. Miami of Ohio and UT-Chattanooga. The Thundering Herd relies heavily on the running of tailback Ron Lear, the Southern Conference's Freshman of the Year last season, who has rushed for 518 yards in six games. "Marshall has moved the football well at times, but much like us. they just haven't been able to put it in the endzone enough to win." says Waters. The Catamounts have won all three games in the series which began in 1977. the school's first season in the Southern Conference. Marshall, which has lost 19 consecutive conference games, came very close to winning here two years ago. The Thundering Herd led 14-13 with 0:56 to play, but Western's Mike Pusey hit Gerald Harp with a pass in the endzone to pull out a 21-14. Waters expressed continued disappointment with the Catamounts performance at East Carolina. "We let a great opportunity slip away. They (ECU ) were not very good this season and wc will not get many opportunities to play a poor football team at East Carolina." he explained. "Offensively, wc did some things well, but again we could not get the tough yards in critical situations." he revealed. "Defensively, we were still not tough enough to be a winner. " he added. "We have some individuals who are playinj, well and we have some who are not carrying their load. And. we have some who are riot capable of doing the job. Wc plan to keep the ones who arc playing well on the same track, try to motivate the second group, and replace the last group." explained Waters. October 23, 1980 Western Carolinian 17
