Ha»k«ift Photo Late Push Lifts Land-Locked Buccaneers in Johnson City The Citadel Visits Cullowhee Saturday, Hopes to Turn Cats Away From Conference Tournament for the First Time in WCU History By CHRIS GEIS Sports Editor The biggest basketball game of the year for Western Carolina is Saturday night in the Ramsey Center. But the reward for both Western and the visiting Citadel Bulldogs will likely be no more than the blessing of avoiding last place in the Southern Conference standings. The last-place team In the final regular- season standings does not participate in the confer- ence tournament. Heading into Saturday night's game. Western Carolina is 1-11 in the conference and 7-16 overall, and The Citadel is 2-10 and 5-17. The Citadel defeated Virginia Military by 64-59 last Saturday, and VMI is the only other conference team the Catamounts have beaten this year. With VMI (4-9 and 9-15) holding down seventh place, the Catamounts and Bulldogs will almost certainly be relegated to the Nos. 8 and 9 spots, and Saturday night's loser will probably be the team that gets to stay at home when the // We have to come ready to play and forget about our won-lost record- coach Herb Krusen tournament rolls Into Ashevilie the first weekend of March. The last time Western and The Citadel met, Feb. 8 in Charleston, S.C., the Catamounts' last- minute hex hit them again. The Citadel's Leon Bryant hit a 25-foot jumper at the buzzzer to give the Bulldogs a 67-64 victory. Western will also travel to Greenville, S.C., on Monday night for a game against second-place Furman (9-4 and 15-8). "Right now it just comes down to a very big basketball game for us." Catamount head coach Herb Krusen said Tuesday. "We're fighting for a spot in the conference tournament, and we have to beat these guys if we have any hopes of making It. "We have to come ready to play and forget about our won- lost record. Our only goal Is to get in the tournament. Once you get there, anyth!. .g can happen." The Catamounts' conference woes continued Monday night in Johnson City, Tenn., against East Tennessee State. Although Western turned In "the best offensive performance we've had "all year," according to Krusen. the Catamounts let a five-point lead turn into an 82-74 loss to the Buccaneers (8-6 and 11-11). "It was the best game we've played all month," Krusen said. "We played smarter. East Tennessee just kept hitting some big shots, the tough shots that we wanted them to take. We missed too many of our own." The Bucs, down by five points midway through the second half, took the led with six minutes and 57 seconds left on a three- point play by Rodney Jones, and only three minutes later the punch- see HOOPS next page Baseball Cats Have the Hurlers, Seek Bats Tim Sinicki Seven games into its 6 0 - g a m e schedule, it isa good news- bad news story for Western Carolina University's baseball team. WCU, 2-5 after road games against Southeastern Conference powers Florida and Auburn, will take to the road again this weekend for five games. The Catamounts will visit UNC Charlotte for a single game Friday and will travel on to Raleigh for doubleheaders Saturday and Sunday against nationally ranked N.C. State. Coach Jack Leggett predicted that his WCU pitching staff would be stronger and deeper and the Catamounts, to date, have lived up to his expectations. Western's hurlers have posted an Impressive 3.64 team earned run average. Leggett was concerned entering the season with his team's ability to score runs and, likewise, his suspicions were well fJF Gary Volpe founded. To date, the Catamounts are batting .229 and averaging 2.4 runs per game. "I am pleased with out overall ptehhg..espedal/ when you take Into consideration who we have played," said Leggett. "Our batters have not hit the ball with runners in scoring position or been able to advance runners like we must," he added. Leggett has been encouraged by the defensive play of the Catamounts. "Our fielding has to be considered a strong point after what we've seen in the opening two weeks," he noted. Western has averaged less than two errors per game despite having less than a week of practice on their playing surface at Ronnie G. Childress Field. After winning one of three games in the season opening series at Florida, the Catamounts managed one victory In a see BATS next page Lady Cats Fall to Fourth in League Wanda Foster Lost to Knee Injury Western Announces Strong List of Early Football Signees An-coference outfielder Skip Nelloms has seven hits so far this season. Hotketl photo By STEVE ALMASY Sports Writer Western Carolina's Lady Cats slipped Into fourth place in the Southern Conference basketball chase after two road losses this week. The Lady Cats also got bad news when they discovered that senior guard Wanda Foster had been lost for the remainder of the season. Western lost at Appalachian State on Saturday, 76-59, and fell to East Tennessee State University on Monday night, 82-70. Foster suffered a knee Injury during the Appalachian contest that will require surgery. Foster was leading the team In assists with 2.2 per contest and was scoring at a 5.1 per game clip. She had started 10 of 21 contests. The Lady Cats are 3-4 In the Southern Conference (11-11 overall) after the losses. Marshall remains at the top of the hill with a 6-1 mark and will visit the Ramsey Center Saturday. Appalachian State is second (5-2), while last night's opponent, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, Is third (4-2). Appalachian got off to a quick start against the Lady Cats, leading at halftime, 36-21. The Lady Mountaineers got 18 points and 14 rebounds from senior Valerie Whiteside who led four Appalachian players in double figures. Debbie Swlcegood and Kim Johnson both had 14 points while Beth Laney knocked In 10. Appalachian won both games against Western this season. Jeanne Marvel, Shirley Shannon, and Roxy Williams led the way for the Lady Cats, combining for 44 points and 25 rebounds. At ETSU. the Lady Cats fell victim to the hot shooting Lady Bucs (1 -6 in SC). Despite the fact that ETSU has only six healthy players, they shot the lights out of Memorial Center. For the game, the Lady Bucs hit 61 percent of their field goals. Katie Beck played all 40 minutes and had 32 points for ETSU. Nicole Hopson and Missy Marvin each had 17 points.

WCU has announced a list of 22 high school players signed to the national letter of intent since Februaary 10, the official signing date. Additional signlngs are expected to take place over the next two weeks. 16 of the 22 signees are products of North Carolina high schools and 10 are linemen. Bob Waters. WCU's veteran head football coach, said the heavy concentration of instate and line signees was by design. "We achieved our goals of signing more size and more North Carolina players," he stated. "This is the biggest group of linemen, both in size and number, we have ever signed and is probably our best recruiting year ever in North Carolina," said Waters. Two other areas - wide receiver and linebacker - were also emphasised in this year's recruiting campaign. Three receivers and four linebackers were signed. Following is a breakdown by positions of WCU's 1988 recruiting class to date.
