  • February 16, 1995 Western Carolinian Sports Furman 74 Rick Husak Staff Reporter GREENVILLE, SC-Last Saturday the Lady Cats traveled to Greenville to take on Furman in a tough conference battle. The Cats started out slow, only shooting 39% (13-33) in the first half; however, they were able to keep it close going into the second period. The Lady Cats, down by six at the opening of the second half, turned up the volume shooting an amazing 53% from the floor. Furman hit the boards just a little harder, out-rebounding WCU (37-33), but the Lady Cats shot 50% from the three point range, hitting six of twelve shots. Jennifer Adams led the Lady Cats with sixteen points, seven rebounds and two blocked shots, but Jennifer was not the only one to step up, as the Cats had five people shooting in double figures. Furman was led by Kristi Creamer and Tonya Intramural Sorority 4-Wall Racquetball has been rescheduled for Thursday, February 16th, at 6:15 pm.

Despite the Lady Cats' hot touch in the second, Furman was able to hold on and pull this one away. It was a tough game to the end. The Lady Cats played with initiative, showing off their potential in the second half of the game. Furman played consistent ball, shooting 46% from the floor in both periods, downing WCU 76-74. Notes: Also contributing were Missy Broy with twelve points, four assists, two steals; Amy Baker had fifteen points including (4 of 8) from three point range; Karen Mason added twelve points of her own while grabbing eleven rebounds; and Alicia Brittain shot (5 of 8) for thirteen points in just sixteen minutes. • Will's Extra Points* WCU Bandwagon Has Flat Tire Bandwagon: A cause or party that attracts increasing numbers of adherents. The word and its definition seem harmless enough—what "cause" or "party" couldn't benefit from "increasing numbers of adherents?" For sports fans, though, the mere mention of the word "bandwagon" stirs up angry emotions. Fans who start pulling for certain teams only when they are winning or after they have won are considered "bandwagon fans." The most common way to climb aboard the bandwagon is to "jump" on. Two recent cases in point: the Atlanta Braves and the Dallas Cowboys. In 1990, the Braves finished dead last in the National League West. The few fans who did turn out that year didn't have to worry about calling months ahead to secure tickets—good seats were readily available on the day of the game. A year later, the Braves were in first place and Atlanta-Fulton County Stadium was jam-packed on a regular basis. "Fans" everywhere donned Braves T-shirts and caps and engaged in the tomahawk chop. Dallas Cowboy supporters are perhaps more notorious bandwagon fans. Fans of "America's Team" were unheard of when the Cowboys hit rock bottom in 1989, going 1-15 on the year. But three years later, Dallas was on their way to the first of their second consecutive Super Bowl wins, and the fans were coming out of the woodwork. Coincidence? I think not. True sports fans would almost rather be accused of committing a capital murder than of being a bandwagon fan. A friend of mine has a picture of himself as a kid with a Dallas Cowboys T-shirt on to prove that he is, was, and always will be a true fan. The only thing worse than jumping on the bandwagon, however, is jumping off. Bandwagon fans and true fans alike can agree that whenever you start to pull for a team, you continue to pull for that team, through thick and thin— which brings me to the WCU men's basketball team. I'll admit it—I jumped on the bandwagon last year amid all the excitement during the season. Like most students, I didn't attend a single game two years ago, when the Cats went 6-21. For basketball bandwagon fans like myself, this seems to be a good place and time to jump off. As a bandwagon fan who has the opportunity to vent his voice in a weekly editorial, I could write that Western (5-5) doesn't have a chance to win another game this year— three of their four remaining four games are on the road. I could write that Coach Benny Dees doesn't have a clue of who to play or when to play them. I could write that guard Anquell McCollum is shooting so bad lately, it's questionable as to whether he could hit the ground if he jumped out of an airplane. I could write that forward Tim Ford has shot enough bricks this year to build several new dorms here on campus. But I'm not going to write that stuff, because I believe in this team. I have a reserved seat on the Catamount basketball bandwagon, and I'm prepared to ride it until the last stop. It's not too late for you to make your reservations, too.
