  • Sports Page 11 A Most Successful Season There was some splendid airplay during Saturday's game, as evidenced here. Pholo by Rick McDaniel Amazing Cats by Doug Irwin The Tennessee-Chattanooga Moccasins came into Cullowhee expecting to easily dismantle the WCU Catamounts and stay in the race for the Southern Conference championship. They left after the Saturday afternoon contest but they did not get what they expected to as they ran into a prime-time ready-to-play football team in Western Carolina. It was the Catamounts who did the damage as they outhustled and generally outplayed UTC as they posted a 24-10 Southern Conference victory. A crowd of only 6,000 showed up at Whitmire Stadium for the early afternoon contest. Western Carolina got the first break early in the game on the second play when Moccasin quarterback Steve Woods threw the ball into the hands of Catamount defensive back Richard Dukes. The Cat offense managed a couple of first downs before a UTC player forced Ronnie Mixon to fumble. On the very next play, Woods fumbled himself and Steve Grayson recovered the ball for WCU. This time the Cats managed to capitalize on a Chattanooga mistake as Dean Biasucci booted a 20 yard field goal to give the Cats the lead which they never relinquished. Turnovers continued to plague both teams. Another turnover by UTC's Woods set up Western's first touchdown when Steve Marshall made his first interception of the game. On the very next play, Ronnie Mixon connected with Jeff Dean on a 45-yard touchdown pass that gave the Cats a surprising 10-0 lead. In the second quarter, UT-Chattanooga settled for a field goal when the Cat defense tightened up near the goal line. On UTC's next possession. Woods again connected with Western's Marshall, but this time Marshall took it into the end zone and gave WCU a rousing 17-3 advantage. If the first half had many turnovers, the second half had ball control. Western Carolina did anyway. For the record, Western Carolina ran off 78 plays and controlled the football for over two-thirds of the game. That was no more evident than in the second half, when the Catamounts had the football for almost 21 minutes compared to UTC who only had possession for 8 minutes. After Dean Biasucci just missed a 52 yard field goal, UTC put on a sustained drive that resulted in their only touchdown of the game on a short pass play. After UTC scored, Western was expecting an on- sides kick, but the Mocs kicked the ball deep apparently hoping to pin the Cats deep in their own territory. It did not happen though as the Catamount offense put on its most impressive drive possibly of the season. The offense used almost all of the remainder of theclockastheydrove 85 yards to put the convincing score on the board. Melvin Dorsey got the honors as he jumped over one defender and outran another to the end zone, thus sealing up the Continued on page 13 The Western Carolina ladies volleyball team is winding down a most successful 1981 season as they finish their schedule at home after playing the whole month of October on the road. The girls currently boast a 31-4 record after ending their long road schedule in Winston-Salem where they played in a three way match against Wake Forest and High Point College. The Cats defeated High Point 15-11 and 15-6 after being behind 8-0 in the first game. In their match against Wake Forest, the Lady Cats lost the first game 9-15 before they rebounded and won the next two games, 15-13 and 15-8. The girls had just come off of a tough match against UNCClast Thusday in Charlotte and they will have that on their minds when the 49ers visit Cullowhee next Thursday. "We owe U NCC," says Coach Betty Peele. Before the girls play UNCC, they have Gardner-Webb and Elon to play on November 3 in a three way match. Coach Betty Peele said she was impressed with the way her girls came back against High Point and Wake Forest. "It was a great team effort" said Peele. The team is looking forward to the state playoffs which begin November 12 at Lenoir Rhync College. Looming even bigger in the near future is the Regional Championships the following weekend at Francis-Marion College. "1 feel like we will get a bid to the regionals, especially if we beat UNCC," says Peele. Mrs. Peele said that the home crowds in Breece Gym have been fantastic. "Playing at home makes a difference, especially when you have to play good teams like UNCC." Coach Peele commented that this year has been a "super good year" and it has been a total team effort. She noted that Ana White and Sondra Fleming have played well along with Nancy Sutton and Janis Burke who have done a good job coming off the bench. The National Championships are in the minds of the whole volleyball team as they "shoot for Colorado Springs" where the championship tournament will be held this year.
