Mall Photo ll> Mark Haskett The Cats put together an outstanding defensive effort in Saturday's Homecoming game that produced a 37-20 win over the Wofford Terriers. Western will depend heavily on the defense this week as they take on 17th ranked UT-Chattanooga in a vastly important Southern Conference showdown. WCU Vs. UT-Chattanooga picked off three UTC passes and recovered three- fumbles. Tailback Anthony James scored both of WCU's touchdowns and Dean Biasucci kicked a pair of 39 yard field goals. Defensive back Richard Dukes was named the conference's defensive player of the week. LAST WEEK'S GAMES: Western Carolina spotted Wofford three-point leads twice in the opening 20 minutes then scored 24 unanswered points enroute to a 37-20 non-conference victory. The Catamounts, behind the running of tailback Melvin Dorsey. rolled up their biggest rushing yardage total ofthe season (202 yards). Dorsey rushed for 117 yards on 18 carries and scored once. It was his first 100 yard day since his sophomore season. Quarterback Jeff Gilbert continued his outstanding passing by completing 14 of 21 for 183 yards and two TD's. UT-Chattanooga also fell behind early in the game on a safety, but reeled off 23 unanswered points and then held on for a 23-16 win over Marshall in a conference game in Chattanooga. The Moccasins rolled up 244 yards on the ground behind the running of Harold Ricks (103 yards) and Artis Edwards (75 yards). Defensive back David McCrary returned a punt for a touchdown. KEY PLAYERS: Western Carolina's offense is led by junior quarterback Jeff Gilbert who has completed 61% of his passes over the past four games for 756 yards (189 per game) and six TD's. His favorite targets are 5-8 catback Eric Rasheed (42 x 496) and 5-7 split end Kristy Kiser (30 x 431). They rank first and third in the conference pass receiving stats. Tailback Leonard Williams is the leading rusher with 474 yards, but has lost his starting position to Melvin Dorsey who returned to the lineup last Saturday after missing two games with a shoulder dislocation and rushed for I 17 yards. Williams is also the team's leading scorer with eight lOltfidowns. Specialists Dean Biasucci and Steve Kornegay have been having strong seasons. Biasucci is six of eight in field goals and Kornegay is averaging 40.0 yards per punt. Center Steve Taylor leads the offensive line play. The defensive unit is led by tackle Mark Buffamoyer (40 first hits) and defensive backs Steve Marshall and Tiger Greene (four interceptions). UT-Chattanooga has three running backs with over 200 yards in rushing in Harold Ricks (368), Artis Edwards (325) and Dennis King (209). Quarterback Ralph Potter has rushed for 209 yards and passed for 439 yards. Linebackers Glen Richardson and Lawrence Green led the conference's top defensive unit along with end Steve Kurtz, nose guard Randall "Brick" Mitchell and safety Gary Woodburn. Specialist Jack Teichman has connected on five of nine field goal attempts. INJURIES: Western Carolina will play for the second straight without defensive back Richard Dukes who is sidelined with a fractured collar bone. UT-Chattanooga does not report any new injuries from the Marshall game. OFFENSES: Western Carolina uses a pass- oriented Multiple I offense, with an almost equal distribution of passing and running plays this season. The Catamounts are averaging 129 yards a game on the ground and 206 through the air. UT-Chattanooga runs from the Wishbone and averages 53 running plays to 14 passing plays per game. The Moccasins are averaging 212 yards a game on the ground and 82 per game passing. DEFENSES: Western Carolina uses a multiple defense with a basic four- 'man front. UT-Chattanooga also uses multiple defense with a basic 5-2 look. Football is the big activity going on in WCU's Intramural Department. In this photo, a heavy rush is being put on the quarterback during a Tuesday afternoon game. Slaff Photo By Mark Haskett
