  • Volume 57 Number 1 Sports The Western Carolinian Page 5 Thursday, June 20. 1991 WCU Basketball signs bumper crop of recruits for 1991-92 season Robert M. Robertson Sports Editor Western Carolina signed five more basketball players in the spring, bringing in a bumper crop of seven recruits: two point guards, two centers, two guards and one forward to add to the 1991-92 season. Scott Bradley, a 5'11" point guard from T.C. Roberson High was Western North Carolina's Player of the Year last year. Bradley averaged 18 points per game, 5.5 assists, 5.2 rebounds, and three steals. Greg Dates is a 6'8", 210 pound center from Southern Union State College, the same school that brought Terry Boyd to Western. Dates averaged 15 points and 12 rebounds per game last season. Scott Newman, another junior college transfer, is a point guard who averaged 16.9 points, six as- The Western Carolinian staff would LIKE TO WELCOME ALL ORIENTATION STUDENTS TO WCU sists, 2.1 rebounds, and 2.2 steals per game at Marshalltown Community College. Newman also connected on 51 percent of his field goal attempts, 49 percent from three point land, and 87 percent from the free throw line. Maurice Williams, a junior college transfer from Merced College California, was the CaminoNorte Conference most valuable player and led the conference in scoring. Williams averaged 18.4 points, 4.3 assists, four rebounds and 2.1 steals per game. "Based on who we have returning, and who we have signed, we'll have a better basketball team than last season," said Catamount Basketball coach Greg Blatt. "Assuming we don't lose anyone to injury, we'll have the best team since I've been here," he added. "For the first time next year, we'll have five juniors and seniors out of the top eight players on the squad," explained Blatt. "There's no substitute for experience," added Blatt, "and we'll have experienced players on the floor." Western vs.Conference graduating statistics Robert M. Sports Editor Robertson The Monday June 17 issue of USA Today started a five day report of Division I basketball schools and their graduation rates, including every school in the Southern Conference except Western Carolina. Western did not participate because the data in the report included the years 1980-84. WCU was not an NCAA school unul the 1981-82 season. Before '81, Western Carolina was an NAIA school not required to keep such data, according to Mike Malone of the Academic Affairs Department at WCU. However, information about WCU graduation rates are available to the NCAA and the public for the 1983 class after five years. The chart on the right lists the schools in descending order according to Men's basketball graduation rates. The USA Today report also included total players and the number graduating, Women's rates and total players, and adjusted rates that include adjustments for transfer students. Such data was not applicable to the chart listed above. *WCU statistics are from 1983. All other schools contributed data with freshman entering between 1980-84 and graduating within five years.

If you jump in with a big splash and then create shadows on the water moving around, the fish will not bite anything drifted their way. In addition, it is important to fish upstream, because that is the way the trout are facing. By fishing upstream the trout are unable to see you. Dry flies are the most fun to use. Watching a trout take the fly is one of the most exciting events in flyfishing. There is not one certain pattern that works the best day in and day out. Some popular patterns include the Royal Coachman, Royal Wulff, Male and Female Adamses, and Mayfly imitations. Also popular are terrestrial patterns such as grasshoppers, black ants and gnats, and crickets. If there is a hatch of insects coming out of the water, try to "match the hatch". In other words, tie on a fly that closely resembles the insects that the trout are feeding on. Remember when drifting a fly, make the presentation as natural looking as possible. The fly needs to lie out straight on the TAKE DRUGS AND LOSE ALL YOUR FRIENDS. If you think drugs cost a lot now, wait until after college. They could cost you a career. Last year alone, America's businesses lost more than $60 billion to drugs. So this year, most of the Fortune 500 will be administering drug tests. Failing the test means you won't be considered for employment. And that's one hell of a price to pay. water. When the current catches the fly line, it drags the fly along quickly. When this happens, cast again. If the trout are not feeding on top, nymph fishing might be the ticket. Popular nymph patterns are the Tellico nymph, Gold Ribbed Hare's Ear, Wooly Worm, and Wooly Bugger. Nymph fishing is trickier, because the fly is invisible to the angler. The trick is to watch the floating fly line near to where the leader is attached to the line. If the line stops floating downstream, twitches in any way, or does anything unnatural, set the hook. Chances are a fish has taken the fly, but quick reflexes are necessary, because trout can take in a fly and then spit it out in a split second. Good rivers to begin fishing are the Tuckaiseegee, just minutes from campus, the Nantahala River between Bryson City and Robinsville, and the Oconoluftee River flowing through Cherokee and the Great S moky Mountains National Park. Be sure to buy a trout stamp to supplement the regular N.C. State fishing license. A stamp is not necessary to fish the National Park, but other regulations apply. Be sure to check these in the N.C. Hunting and Fishing Regulations Guide 1991, available where licenses are sold. Fishing on the Cherokee Reservation is also a good bet. Four dollar a day permits are available at several locations in Cherokee. No state license is required, however other restrictions apply here too. Fishing is only allowed on Enterprise waters and some of these are closed on days that stocking of fish occurs. People here in Cullowhee are in the middle of the finest trout fishing east of the Mississippi. Fly fishing is far and away the most exciting way to catch these powerful and graceful fish. Once an angler feels the pull of a large brown or experiences the acrobatics of a rainbow trout at the end of his bent- double fly rod, he will understand the excitement, also. photos by Angela Kootnson Concentrate on seeing the fly and making it drift naturally. Large hackled flies are easier to float and see. A Royal Wulff lured this 12-inch Nantahala Rainbow Trout in swift water. Out of bounds--an editorial series WE'RE PUTTING DRUGS OUT OF BUSINESS. Partnership for a Drug-Free America Robert M. Robertson Sports Editor Question: When docs dribbling a basketball become more important than getting a college diploma and bettering your quality of life? Answer: When you go to UTC, ETSU, or App. State. These three teams.were in the top four in terms of final conference standings, yet were the worst three in terms of graduation stats. The University of Tennessee at Chattanooga owns the basement when it comes to percentage of athletes graduating. However they were the illiterate terrors of the court when it came to inside-the- paint power moves. East Tennessee State University was another hard court Juggernaut throughout the season, being ranked consistently in the top 25 What's really enlightening is the fact that they called Mr. Keith Jennings "Keith 'Mister' Jennings". Perhaps ETSU would want to be informed that titles such as Mr., Mrs., or Ms. go before the name, not in the m iddle. Poor old App State was third from the worst in graduating their basketball players. The Mountaineers could make it from one end of the court to the other, finishing fourth, but evidently could not make it through class as they could only manage to get rid of 28 percent of their Men's Basketball team. Marshall were the mediocrcs on the court and in the classroom. The real problem with the Thundering Herd, is that their Athletic Department doesn't know how to stay out of trouble with the NCAA. Maybe next year we'll let them play past February. Western Carolina ranked fourth in graduate statistics, but man aged to stay out of the cellar in the conference standings. It is interesting to note that Western ranked highest of the state supported schools in graduating their Men's basketball team. VMI, Furman, and The Citadel all have excuses for graduating over fifty percent of their men players. If I paid the money that Furman students pay I'd want out of hock as quickly as possible also. In all fairness, I have to hand it to Furman, they surprised everyone on the court at one time or another as well as getting their guys to complete their degrees. As for VMI and The Citadel, they are military academics. These guys need to be educated in real world terms to kill with the utmost intolerance. Fortunately neither VMI nor The Citadel had the killer instinct on the hardcourt as VMI finished sixth and The Citadel rested in the cellar. I hope that they can defend the country better than they defend a basket.
